Even though it is Monday, for some reason there was no Monday morning blues. Today i have been a busy bee working and also sorting through my room having that annual pre-christmas clean out. Saying that though there was still time for makeup. So here is today's "Face of the Day" products and a first impression on two new products i purchased yesterday...
FOTD
1. MUA pro-brow eyebrow kit - this brow kit comes with three different colour shades, a light and dark blonde and a dark brown which is the colour i use.. the kit also comes with a brow setting gel.
2. BOURJOIS 123 perfect foundation - this was my first time trying this foundation today as i only purchased it yesterday as i had heard so many good reviews from it. i got mine in the colour Nó52Vanilla.
3. L'OREAL lumi magique pure light primer - this was also my first time using this primer, i thought i would give it a go as i love love love the rest of the lumi magique collection.
4. COLLECTION 16 hour lasting perfection concealer- my holy grail concealer, i don't have a bad word to say about this product. i have it in the shade 2Light.
5. L'OREAL lumi magique highlighter pen - yet again another lumi magique item but i am obsessed with this one and i use it everyday. i have it in the shade 1Light.
6. L'OREAL nude magique bb powder - surprise surprise yet another L'Oreal product, i just can't help it but this has taken over my holy grail powder Rimmel Stay Matte. i have this in the shade light/medium.
7. URBAN DECAY original eye shadow primer potion - favourite eye primer never creases, yet again another new holy grail product.
8. URBAN DECAY naked basics palette - i love this palette for simple everyday makeup. shades in the palette are L-R: venus, foxy, w.o.s, naked2, faint and crave.
9. L'OREAL mega volume black smoke mascara- this is my go to mascara at the moment. this mascara doesn't just give my lashes volume it lengthens them even though it just says volume mascara.
10. NYX eye kohl pencil - just an everyday black kohl liner, the think i love about this is that it doesn't smudge on me like a lot of other kohl pencils do.
11. NARS highlighter powder- this was in my recent haul blog post, i am so glad i finally decided to purchase this. the shade is called Albatross. definitely worth the hype.
12. NEW CID COSMETICS lip gloss- another item from my recent haul blog post. the really cool thing about this lip gloss is the fact it has a mirror on the tube and also when you open the gloss it has a built in light which is really handy. i love the shade, it's a perfect pretty nude shimmer gloss ( i-gloss in Romance). the only thing i dislike about the product is the shape of the applicator.
(I also used my usual Topshop sandcastle bronzer to contour, but i forgot to photograph it).
FIRST IMPRESSION.
1. BOURJOIS 123 perfect - contains 3 correcting pigments zero imprerfections. yellow pigments for anti-dark circles, mauve pigments for anti-dull complexion and green pigments for anti-redness.
I purchased this foundation in the shade Nó52 Vanilla and it is a perfect match to my skin tone at the moment. My first impressions of this foundation is that even though it's a full coverage foundation it doesn't feel almost cake like on the skin, it still feels light. The consistency is fairly thin but not as thin as my usual L'Oreal nude magique foundation. The foundation has lasted well on my skin all day and hasn't become shiny to say that it states it is a hydrating foundation, which can cause you to become shiny and oily looking during the day. I am really impressed with this foundation and i think it will become my new everyday go to foundation.
£10.99 - Boots.
2. L'OREAL nude magique - pure light primer. My first impression on this primer is that it isn't a thick consistency which i like, i also like that the primer has a shiny glow to it when you apply it. I am all about the glowing skin. I honestly don't know why i haven't tried this sooner. I have also found in the past that the majority of primers have an unpleasant scent to them but this one has very little scent to it.
£9.99 - Boots.
Hope you are all having a lovely day and Merry Christmas Eve Eve...
Katie ♥
