On The Go Makeup Bag

Hey lovelies 
I thought I would do a blog post on what is in my on the go makeup bag that goes around with me for touch ups. I try not to carry to much but having oily skin my makeup tends to melt off after a few hours.
Then, whatever blush and lip combo I am wearing, today it is:

What is in your on the go makeup bag?

How much is my face worth tag!

I have seen this tag doing the rounds on blogs and thought I would give it a go as it seems fun. My make up changes everyday but like most people I have a I set routine I do if I am in a rush or I don't want to think about it. I thought I would do my routine for the days and for the evening as I thought it would be interesting to see the difference as I use more higher end products when I go out on the night. I am kind scared to see how much I spend on my everyday face and how many products I use
Day
Bourjouis Healthy Mix Foundation £9.99
Lacura Concealer Pen £3.59
Mac Studio Finish Concealer £14.50
Maybelline Dream Matte Powder £7.19
Sleek Contour Kit £6.49 
Elf Blush - Peechy Keen £3.75
Elf Eyebrow Kit £3.75
Mac Paint Pot - Bare Study £14.50
Mac Eyeshadow - Satin Taupe £12.00
Mac Eyeshadow - Twinks £12.00
Mac Eyeshadow - Vanilla £12.00
Mac eyeshadow - Carbon £12.00
YSL Faux Cils Mascara £23.00
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick - Pink In The Afternoon £7.49
Barry M Lip Gloss - Toffee £4.49
TOTAL = 146.74

Evening






















Benefit Porefessional  £2.00 sample
17 Photo Flawless Primer £4.99
Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua £32.00
Lacura Concealer Pen £3.59
Mac Studio Finish Concealer £14.50
Maybelline Dream Matte Powder £7.19
Sleek Contour Kit £6.49 
Mac Bronzer - Refined Golden - £19.00
Maybelline Dream Touch Blush - Peach £6.49
Mac Blush - Well Dressed £17.50
Elf Eyebrow Kit £3.75
Urban Decay Primer Potion £14.50
Urban Decay Naked Palette £36.00 
Loreal Super Liner - Carbon Gloss £6.49
YASL Faux Cils Mascara £23.00
Ardell Lashes - Demi Wispies £5.49
Look Beauty Lipstick - Toffee Cup £7.00
Barry M Lip Gloss -  £4.49
TOTAL = £214.47

Well there you have it I am quite shocked, it is so much money and that is without brushes, glad I never added my YSL lipsticks that I usually use. I did expect the evening makeup to be more as I use higher end makeup but I do feel a little disgusted in my self that I spend so much money on just my basics. Think I am going to have to cut down. I seem to use to many products on my face it really is good for my skin or the purse.
Anyway that was a fun to do and very interesting.

Have you done this tag? if so leave a link below I would love to see it and how it compares.

Boohoo £50 Blogger Challange

As I am sure most of you are aware of the boohoo £50 blogger challenge that is going on at the moment, If not I will quickly explain.
www.fashionvouchers.com are holding a competition for all bloggers to celebrate boohoo.com making the Top 10 Fashion Money Saving Websites. All you have to do is create an outfit for under £50. It was so much fun and amazing how much you could get for £50


Boohoo £50 challange
Christy High Shine High Waisted Disco Pants Was £15.00 Now £10.00
Riley Lace Back Georgette Shirt Was £18.00 Now £11.00
Xanthe Black Suedette Peeptoe Wedge Was £25.00 Now £18.00
Harper Spiked Bracelet £8.00
TOTAL = £47

This is what I put together. It is perfect for a night out or you could even change the wedges for a pair of boots/creepers and wear it in the day. I am obsessed with disco pants at the moment and these are amazing dupes for the expensive American apparel version. I love the look of a top tucked in to them but for us curvy girls it not always the most flattering so I decided to pair it with a long dip hem chiffon top. I chose the black wedges because you can never go wrong with a pair of black wedges and much prefer the look of wedges with disco pants than heels. I wanted to edge it up a little and when I saw this spike bracelet I just had to add it to the outfit. Spikes and studs are everywhere and bang on trend for autumn so it was perfect for the outfit. 

Have you taken up the challange?

NOTD - Essie Fiji

Hey guys long time no blog!
I haven't been able to blog for a while as my brother decided to drop the laptop on the floor and smashed the screen so I only have my mums computer to use when I go to hers. So will have to bare with me for a while.
The other day I went in to Boots and saw the Essie stand had finally come to my local shop and I just couldn't resists and picked up a few
I have on Fiji which is a creamy opaque pale pink.It is opaque in two coats but can be a bit streaky so I put on three coats.
Oh wow I didn't realise how bad my cuticles were until I saw this picture, think they need a little TLC!

I really like the formulation of Essie. I wasn't sure whether I should get any at first as they are £8 but in my opinion they are totally worth it and I am already eyeing up my next polish

Have you tried any of the Essie polishes? What are your favourite shades?

Not So Cool!

So I was just packing my makeup to take with me to pride when I noticed how many cool toned pink lipsticks I have. With pink being my favourite colour it is not hard to see why i have so many. The blue toned bubblegum pink look so gorgeous in the tube and so wearable but the problem is they look horrible on my warm skin toned. Everytime i go to the shop and see one I cannot resist and pick it up just hoping that it will look good even though in the back of my mind I know it will look awful.I have wasted so much money on these with lipsticks from YSL to natural collection but looking in my collection today I think it is time to say enough is enough and realise as much I hate it that they do not and will not ever suit you and too just stop wasting my money.








Is there anything that doesn't suit you but still cant resists?

May favoutites

Hey lovelies
Can't believe it is June already I feel like I say this all the time but the days are just flying by. It is so scary to think I will be 22 in like a month argh,
I am sure by now you all know that a new month means monthly favourites. I do love these posts but it is bad for me to read them because my wishlist gets bigger and bigger every month hehe :)
Here are my favourites for this month:

Bourjous Healthy Mix ~ I brought this foundation a while back but just didn't use it because I was using my Chanel foundation but I decided to try it and I love it. It is similar to my Chanel vitalumiere aqua. It has medium coverage, doesn't look cakey and leaves a glowy look to the skin. I have been using healthy mix as my everyday foundation all month.




Mac paint pot bare study ~ I have been on a job seekers course this past month so I have not had any time in the morning to put much makeup on. So instead  I have just been putting bare study all over with a bit of eyeliner and mascara. I have to wear a primer undernearth otherwise it creases after a few hours as I have oily eyelids.




Lacura(Aldi) Concealer Pen ~ (I am a bit messy and as you can see it has been well loved so just ignore the state of the packaging) I have heard really good things about this and how it compares to the YSL Touche Eclat so when I went in to aldi and saw it was £3.59 I thought why not. Now I haven't used the Touche Eclat so I cannot compare them but i do love this. it covers my dark circles but to be fair I don't really have bad under eye circles (probably the only skin problem I don't suffer from) and it doesn't crease either which is always good!


Barry M Touch Of Magic Lipstick ~ I love this lipstick, it comes out as a bright pink on me. It lasts all day even with eating and drinking. The only down side is it can get patchy when it starts to fade which is never a nice look so throughout the day I have to just check how it is looking.













Babyliss Glamour Waves ~ I have been styling my hair using this curling tong all month to give my hair volume and big soft curls and it works brilliant. The curls are not to tight but still give you a lovely curl.

What are your May favourites?


I am off to Birmingham Pride this weekend so as long as I don't have too many cocktails I will hopefully be able to do some outfit posts. There are always such amazing and shall we say interesting outfit chooses over pride so I will try and get plenty of pics!
