Hi my loves,

Today I am going to share my top highlighter with you, some a old some are new. Let me know in a comment what your favourites are.




Ok I know I talk about this highlighter to death but it really is the best one ever. I have seen so many people mention it in the best of 2014 videos and all of my favourite and well trusted beauty blogger rave about it. I am totally obsessed with The Balm "Mary Lou-Manizer" It is the most beautiful highlighter and I wear it on a daily basis. It is so finely milled and doesn't have large chunks of glitter like most highlighters have. I just love it and cant get enough of it.

Buy it here



Next is a product that I also wear daily and it is strobe cream from Mac. I love this underneath my foundation or just on my cheeks on days when I don't want to wear foundation. It gives a stunning glow and really illuminates your makeup. This product can also be mixed in with your foundation to give it more of a glow.

Buy it here




A new product to my makeup collection is this "Radiance Boosting Beauty Fluid" from NO. 7. I have only been using it for the last month but I am very impressed. I like to wear this on days when I am going for a warmer more golden tone to my look. It works exactly like the strobe cream but is a more golden tone. I apply it under my foundation to give my skin a dewy finish.

Buy it here



"Soft & Gentle" from MAC is an oldie but a goodie. I love this highlighter for myself and also on clients. It goes amazing with all skin tone and it lasts forever. It have a beautiful champagne tone to it.

Buy it here




These next two products have been pushed to the back of my makeup drawer and I have only really started to use them again this month and realised how much I loved them. "High Beam" and "Moon Beam are old products of benefits but they are so gorgeous and have lasted me years. They blend beautifully into my foundation to give a gorgeous highlight. I love the glow from moon beam it is the more golden toned highlight.

Buy it here




Has anyone tried the hourglass ambient lights highlighters? They are next on my list :)

Thanks for reading

Hey my loves,

As 2014 is coming to an end I wanted to share with you my favourite makeup products of the last year.

Although I have way more than just ten I thought that was enough for now.






In no particular order, first up, but I must admit is probably my favourite find of this year is the Mary Lou-Manizer from The Balm. This is such an amazing powder highlight that is not overly shimmery or glittery. It is just perfection and gives you that amazing glow that everyone wants.






Next up is the Vitalumiere Aqua from Chanel. This foundation is my all time favourite foundation ( a touch on the pricier side) but worth every penny. It gives amazing coverage and lasts all day long. It leaves my skin looking flawless and I just love it so much.





Next product is the liquid eyeliner from Catrice in ''dating joe black'' I have used this eyeliner for years and still cant find anything that works better. It is a jet black liquid liner that applies so easily. I would recommend this one for beginners as it has a felt tip applicator which makes apply it effortless. Another top thing about this product is it is super affordable.



This is another product that I don't think I will ever stop buying. It is from The Balm again (they are featured a lot in the post as their stuff is awesome) This blush ''Hot Mama'' has been my go to blush for the past 6 months and is absolutely stunning. I just love how it looks on my skin and gives such a nice flushed look. I have used this almost everyday and still haven't hit pan.





Another old time favourite is the lasting perfection concealer from Collection. I have been using this concealer for years and haven't come across a better one. It is highly pigmented and covers up the darkest of under eye circles while high lighting that area too. It is also super affordable too.




I have only one mascara that I loved this past year and that is the ''Miss Manga'' from Loréal. I am in love with the length and volume this mascara gives my lashes and also love the fact that it doesn't transfer to my bottom lid.




The next two products are the ultimate in luxury products but you definitely dont need them, but I bet you would LOVE them. First up is the Soleil De Tan from Chanel. This beauty is a cream to powder universal bronzer that works with everyones individual skin tone. It feels heavenly on the skin and making contouring a dream.







The next in luxury is the Banana Powder from Ben Nye. This is Kim Kardashians best friend when it comes to highlighting and sets under eye concealer to give the ultimate pop and gorgeous glow. I just love this product for photographs.




Finishing off with some lip products the first is from NYX and that is their Butter Lip Glosses.

In any shade they are devine and they apply so nicely. They don't leave you lips feeling sticky and horrible and their colour choice is huge.




Last but by no means least is the Provocalips from Rimmel. I only tried these babies in December but they blew my mind. They are a very long wear lip gloss and when I say very long wear I mean it. Them bad boys don't budge from you lips. This are so highly pigmented and gorgeous on.



I hope you liked my picks from the year,  let me know your top products in a comment below.

Hey girls

Today I tried out some new products and wanted to share them with you. 




If you seen my 'makeup must haves' post you will know I am obsessed with this Soleil de Tan from Chanel. I love the effect it has on my skin and love to contour with it. 

I have been using different brushes with this product and think I have finally found the perfect one. The F40 from Blank Canvas Cosmetics makes applying this bronzer flawless and I love it.




This is my makeup base and I am loving this combination. I tried out the a new foundation for the first time. it is the Benefit Hello Flawless in Honey.




The coverage if the foundation is medium and it is quiet a liquidy formula. I built the coverage up to almost full coverage by applying two coats.





I have been using two new palette from The Balm that I have been using and I am in love them with. They are so pigmented and the colours are gorgeous.







 I absolutely love this eye look.




I tried a brand new product to the blank Canvas Cosmetics family and it is their new liquid eyeliner. I loved it because it was a felt tip liner which I love and it is extremely black. That is what I always look for in an eyeliner



On my lips I am wearing Alluring Pink from Catrice



Hope you liked this makeup of the day

Love
