HALLOWEEN WEEK: THE HALLOWEEN TAG

Hey guys, i hope you are all having a great day whatever you are up to! So for today's post i had planned on doing some Halloween makeup ideas but i completely failed as i am just not great at doing that type of makeup and i didn't want to post something i wasn't happy with. I was browsing through twitter and discovered that someone had done a "Halloween Tag" blog post and thought i would give that a go in it's place for a little fun...

1. What is your favourite Halloween movie?

Hands down this has to be Hocus Pocus, it is such a classic film and i love me some Sarah Jessica Parker.

2. 1-10 how much do you enjoy Halloween?

Probably around 8, i really wish we went all out in England like in America but we don't.

3. What is your fondest Halloween memory?

Having my own last minute costume made when i was little out of a black bin bag and some paper stars, but it was my favourite thing.

4. Have you always been a Halloween lover?

Yes as fall is one of my favourite times of year, just all the pretty autumnal colours.

5. How do you get into the Halloween spirit?

Either watching Hocus Pocus, carving a pumpkin or baking cupcakes.

6. Favourite Halloween decorations?

It's got to be pumpkins, i mean that's a no brainer.

7. Favourite Halloween/Fall scent?

Yankee Candle either Ghostly Treats, Candy Corn or Fireside Treats.

8. Favourite Candy?

Candy Corn is the best thing ever, yet you can only get your hands on them in American style sweet shops in the UK which is so annoying!

9. Vampires or Zombies?

Vampires obviously, i love me some Damon Salvatore.

10. What is your weird/odd fear?

Spiders and all creepy crawlies, which isn't odd really i suppose.

11. Last but not least, do you believe in ghosts?

I kind of do and don't at the same time, if i ever saw one i would believe it!

I hope you liked this tag post and have a great weekend...

LIPSTICK PRODUCT ADDICT TAG

Hey guys, i hope you are all having a great day whatever you are up to. For a while now i have been seeing so many people do the "lip product addict tag" which if i am correct was cleverly created by the beautiful youtubers Amelia Liana and Essie Button. So seeing as i haven't done a TAG blog post in a minute i thought i would give the tag a go myself...

(I will put swatches of all the lip products at the end).

1. Favourite Lip Balm/Treatment?

Just recently i have been obsessed with these Balmi lip balm cubes, first of all i bought the minty flavour and then the next time i went into boots i picked up the coconut one also. They are so handy just to keep in your bag and are still easy to find even though they are compact but most of all they are super hydrating.

2. Best Eye-Catching Red?

Anyone who knows me knows that i am not a Red Lipstick kind of girl, i just don't feel as if it suits me that well but saying that this red by L'Oreal does. For obvious reasons as i just said i don't have all that many red's in my collection but this is definitely my favourite.

3. Best Luxury and Best Drugstore?

MAC Snob is my favourite "Luxury" lipstick as it is such a me shade, super long lasting and amazing pigmentation as all MAC products are.

Rimmel Katie 101 is my favourite "Drugstore" lipstick and is probably my most worn lipstick (i am almost out of it). It is very similar to MAC Snob but probably a shade or two darker.

4. Best MAC Lipstick?

This is the same as for "Luxury Lipstick" it is such a me shade like i said. It always instantly cheers me up when i wear it and i always get lots of complements when i do.

5. The Most Disappointing?

I don't even have this product to show in a picture anymore as i threw it away but it is definitely the Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer. What made it more disappointing for me is that this product was so hyped up saying how amazing and long lasting they were so i was super excited to try them, but for me they didn't last long at all. I don't know whether it is just me or maybe i had a bad one, let me know?

6. Liner - Yes or No?

Hell to the YES! I love me some lip liners. I am obsessed with the Essence lip liners they are really creamy and non drying on your lips. I love to wear 06 Satin Mauve all over my lips, such a pretty colour!

7. Best Gloss?

This was actually i really easy decision for me to make for "Best Gloss" which is hands down NYX Butter Gloss in Élair but just recently i have been loving the Manhattan Colour Loop Lipgloss just as much. Both products give a really pretty finish/colour as well as tasting so so nice!

Swatches...

I hope you all have a lovely weekend!

FACE OF THE DAY FRIDAY

Hey guys, i hope you have all had a great week. I suddenly had a thought when i was thinking of what blog post to do for you all next and that i hadn't done a "face of the day items" blog post in so long now. I love reading these type of posts and seeing what items people reach for day to day. So without further a do here it is, my face of the day items...

Urban Decay Naked Skin Beauty Balm - One Shade

NARS Foundation - Light 4 Deauville 

(Just recently i have been loving this foundation combination mixed together).

MAC Matte Eyeshadow - Charcoal Brown

Benefit Gimme Brow - Medium/Deep

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Eden

(I have been trying out the different sample shades of primer potions which i got with my Naked 3 Palette and Eden is definitely next on my list to purchase as i prefer it to the Original).

MAC Eyeshadow - All That Glitters (Top Left)

(I went for a really simple eye look today, so i just applied All That Glitters all over my lid and used my Bronzer as a crease shade. I also did a winged "liner" using Urban Decay Crave eyeshadow).

MAC Prep+Prime Highlighter Pen - Bright Forecast 

Maybelline Instant Anti-Age Corrector - Light

(I love this combination for my under eye area as they both cancel out redness/tiredness).

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder - Transparent 

(To set any areas that might get shiny through out the day).

Collection Volumising Mascara - Black

(This mascara has really surprised me at how long and thick it makes my lashes look without being clumpy, also it is a bargain buy at under £5).

HD Brows Bronzer - Bronzer 2

Benefit Blusher - Coralista

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish - Soft and Gentle

Calvin Klein Cremé Lipstick - Ethereal

(I am hooked on this lipstick at the moment it is the prettiest pinky coral shade).

I hope you all have an amazing weekend, whatever you are up to!
