My 'I have work in 2 hours and really don't want to go' make up look! FOTD

Urgh. I hate doing PM shifts! I waste the whole day thinking about how much I reallllly don't want to go work... So I thought I'd do my make up to pass the time, which took up all of 5 minutes :/

So back to moping around....

'Someone like yoooooou' Inspiration from Adele!




When it comes to beauty, it's the timeless, flawless, classy look that I believe is always the most flattering on anyone. Lately i've been taking a lot of inspiration from Adele - someone who I think is stunning. When I saw the 'Someone Like You' video I was completely in awe of her whole look - the hair, make up, dress and those gorgeous diamond earrings!! I was invited to a pretty big night out, and thought that i'd try to not imitate, but recreate the look she has got going on. I will never be as beautiful as her... but I can bloody well try! :p

'Creaseless' eye shadows... Do they REALLY work?

Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner - £14, 4.5g.


Creases = The reason I stopped using eyeshadows. There is nothing more heart braking than to spend ages applying, blending and layering eye shadows to only look in the mirror an hour later to see that all that work has turned into big creases across your eye lid. Bain. Of. My. Life.

It's a fact that every girl owns a million mascaras....

Mascara! If your anything like me then you will most likely have a million and one mascaras dotted around your house. The other month I had a huge clear out and got rid of a lot of old make-up, not to mention that I threw away about 15 old mascaras... If you've had it longer than 6 months - Bin it!!

I'm going to review the last surviving 5 mascaras left in my make up bag.

My very first review... Benefit WOW Foundation!

This is my very first post, so here we go!

Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen WOW Foundation - £24.50, 30ml


This product has been years in the making. The Benefit brand is a huge, global name who are constantly refreshing their products. However, I was really surprised to find out that this was Benefit's very first liquid foundation. I could not apply the saying 'Good things come to those who wait' any more to this foundation any more if I tried! This product reached UK stores on the 31st March so it is still relatively new. I heard about this coming out at the beginning of the year and I just couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I always thought it was weird that Benefit hadn't offered a liquid foundation before now... Or if they did they must have discontinued it waaaay before I was in to Benefit.
