What's On My Face #1

 
 




 
This week I've been loving this fresh/natural makeup look. Earlier in the week I bit the bullet cut my hair cut. I had been wanting my hair cut shorter for a while as I found it boring and "lifeless" so I got 7 inches got off and some layers added for some volume. I am absolutely loving it!

Everyday Makeup Product's

I thought I would do a little post on my everyday makeup products that I am currently using on a daily basis. I am for sure a girl who gets stuck in a rut with my makeup until I get completely bored of the product. I've been enjoying wearing a "fresh" makeup look recently, healthy glowy skin paired with natural eyes and lips.

April Beauty Favourites

My first ever favourites post, eek! It was always favourite post's that inspired me to created my own blog and now here I am writing my own. A very surreal moment right now!
 
Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette £37

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette
 
I'm going to kick this favourites off with my beloved Urban Decay Naked 3 palette! My favourite shades I have been using are Dust, Nooner and Liar. Argghh I'm just so in love with this little baby, I couldn't say enough good things about it if I tried. From the colours, the pigmentation, the texture and quality of the shadows- everything is just perfect about it! At a hefty price tag of £37 I would say if your going to buy any of the Naked Palettes, I would definitely say choose this one! I will do a full review on this palette.


Laura Mercier Almond Coconut Milk Scrub
 
Laura Mercier Almond Coconut Milk Scrub smells absolutely DIVINE. This isn't my most favourite scrub ever. It's a very harsh scrub so I only just once every two weeks but the smell is just so good to not use. It leaves silky layer of moisture meaning I don't need to use an another body moisturiser.

 
M.A.C MSF Stero Rose £22


M.A.C MSF Stero Rose
 
I have completely falling head over heels with this MSF and I only purchased it at the beginning of the month. It was released in a Mac Collection and I do believe its Limited Edition- Unfortunately. I have been loving wearing it on my eyes or as a blush for a healthy lit from within glow. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
 
Jessop Makeup Brushes £12.98
 
Believe it or not but these brushes were bought on eBay. I got them in a set of 10 for the bargain price of £12.98! Can you believe it? I certainly can't. I'd go as far as saying they are more than just dupes for Sigma brushes, I'd say they're better. I bought mine off eBay, as they do come from China they took 3-4 weeks to get here. I have been using the flat top kabuki brush for my foundation, the angled kabuki brush for cream blusher and lastly the small domed fluffy brush for my concealer. I'm just in LOVE.
 
Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer £22

Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer
 
I haven't been able to stop using this concealer since I've bought it. I've always struggled with concealers I've never been able to find the right one- the right consistency, pigmentation and colour shade but this Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer is PERFECTION. It has great coverage, it's highly pigmented and very blendable.
 

M.A.C Lovelorn Lipstick £15
This Mac lipstick is in Lovelorn. It has been my go to shade this month, I love it for everyday. It is a lustre finish, my favourite from Mac. I'm considering doing a separate blog post on all my Mac lipsticks. Comment below if you'd like to see that post.
 

Fujifilm Instax Mini 8
 
My last favourite. I received this as a gift from my lovely boyfriend Richard for valentines day and I just love it. I'm always snapping away with. I think it's such a cute way to capture memories.
 
 
Well that was a long post! I've thoroughly enjoyed doing my 1st ever favourites. I hope you have too.

Celebrating.

This weekend I celebrated my boyfriends 23rd birthday.
As his actual birthday was on May 1st we were unable to celebrate his birthday until the weekend. On Saturday we had a lazy relaxing day. Richard opened his presents then we went shopping on Saturday afternoon. On Saturday evening we went for a meal and cocktails at a restaurant in Ponteland called Fratelli's. The food was amazing and the cocktails went down a treat. We both would recommend the restaurant a 100% and will certainly be returning again soon.
 
Birthday Presents
 
Birthday Cake
 
Tempura Gamberoni starter from Fratelli's
 


Appletini Cocktail in the Bar
 
 
I had an amazing weekend celebrating and just generally relaxing.
I hope you's all had an amazing weekend too.
Thanks for reading!
