Surprise surprise I've been a little naughty and splurged on some makeup and bits and bobs. My excuse is that I did sort of need these things...
As a sort of package deal I bought the Real Techniques Stippling Brush and the Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in the lightest shade. (As a quick side note if you're in the U.K I would suggest buying Real Techniques brushes from Superdrug as they're always a couple of quid cheaper!) The brush buffs in the foundation beautifully and gives you a flawless finish despite the foundation being light coverage.
Recently all of my mascaras have been drying out so I thought I'd treat myself to the Maybelline Big Eyes mascara. I have mixed opinions on this as I only really like the lower lash end. However this mascara separates, lengthens and volumizes. The only problem I have with this is minor smudging underneath my eyes so if you have watery eyes see if they do a waterproof version.
I have already used the black version of the Rimmel Scandeleyes down to a nub and so I bought the nude version to put on my waterline as they are usually quite pink. The nude is quite yellowy so it can look a bit bizarre on me as I have a cool skin tone but when used sparingly this can really wake up your eyes.
As I owned no bronzers (ridiculous right?) I thought that going on other peoples recommendations I would jump on the band wagon and invest in the Honey Bronzer from The Body Shop. I love this so far as the shade is so light as I am so fair skinned and can't tan, they come in a wide spectrum of shades and it gives you a subtle yet sun kissed look.
I am a huge fan of Sleek so I thought I would treat myself to their Blush in Pixie Pink, it is a beautiful bright baby pink that is slightly more of a Wintery shade. It is matte and really pigmented so have a little caution when using this.
Lastly I bought the Simple Face Mask which I have already mentioned in far more detail in my Face Mask post, so be sure to look at that if you're curious!
