Boots haul

If you had read my last post you would be aware that I was in Croyde and I mentioned that I was going to do a haul. All these products I'm going to mention are all at reasonable price as they are from a drugstore. Enjoy!!!
The first two things I bought were for contouring one from maybeline and one from collection. The collection master sculpt is great because I find it so easy to blend so you can make the contour as sharp or subtle as you want. The highlight has a perfect amount of shimmer. The maybeline master sculpt has to be my favourite out of the two because I think the colour is just perfect for contouring and the highlight is great as well. With this product it comes with a great sized mirror and will be easy to carry around with me.
For along time I have wanted to try out the collection concealer because I have heard so many good things about it. I haven't tried this product out yet so I can't say whether I agree with the craze or not. The other concealer is from soap and glory and I have also wanted to try this out for ages. When I first tried it I thought it was quite hard to blend with a brush but then I tried it again and it blended a lot better with a beauty blender.
This foundation is great it suits my skin tone perfectly and I find that it doesn't go clumpy on some of my dry patches which I love. It is easy to blend with a beauty blender or a brush as it doesn't leave any strokes. It does last a long time but I can't say it lasts for 25 hours because I personally don't leave makeup on for that long I put it on in the morning and take it off at night.
The Rimmel match perfection powder is great I put it on my oily places on my face like my t-zone, under eyes and my chin. It keeps my makeup in place all day so I recommend you go out and by this.
This boujoir blush is the best from a drugstore in my opinion I got mine in number 34. I love this blush because when you apply it to your cheeks it is subtle and has a shimmer to it from the gold running through it.
This number 17 'easy on the eye' is a great palette it comes with 8 nude eyeshadows, 3 cream eyeshadows and a primer. This palette would be great for beginners of makeup because they are subtle colours and they are easy to blend. Also I love that it comes with instructions so for a beginner they will learn what to do.

Flutter eyeshadow

I've never been a girl for the bright bold colours with eyeshadow I'm a nude tone kind of girl and I've always been this way. I guess I just don't have the confidence yet to pull off a bright and bold colours.
This pallet is probably one of the most vibrant ones I have had as it has the bright purples in it (looks brighter in real life) but I still love it. This is great for doing a smokey eye look as the purples are in different shades and makes it work really well. I use all the colours but the one I don't really use the dark one (black) because it's to dark around my eyes and makes me look goth as I have dark brown eyes and dark hair.
The eyeshadow is really nice on your eyes because when you wipe it on your eyelid it grips to it and lasts for a long time. The design for this pallet is really nice with the stripes ( is it just me or does it remind you of jack wills)  I like it with the butterfly's as it makes me feel summery with all the butterfly's. I really recommend this if you haven't already as it's so gorgeous.

Bobbi brown set

I love this set from bobbi brown it's so beautiful and I love to put on the makeup because it's so nice. The lip gloss is great because it aplys so smoothly to your lips and it leaves a subtle glitter look where it's not to obvious but you can still see it. Also it tastes quite nice it's like a minty flavour which I love. I also like to use the finger lip glosses as they are really nice colours and don't show up really bright on your lips. With this I like to apply the normal lip gloss on top so it has a shimmery look for a good night out and at birthday party's. The eyeshadows are great because they're not really bright colours and plus they are great to do the smokey look on your eyes. I never usually use the black because it makes me look goth as I have dark brown eyes so it drowns them out. My favourite eyeshadow is the middle as its a really nice shade and it's like the Mac one I use. I love the way the eyeshadow feels when it's on your eyes as it grips to your eye so it will last basically the whole day.

May favourites

Hey guys here are my May favourites it was really hard to just narrow it down to these 5 items as I have loved so many beauty products so far. Sorry that my brushes aren't clean in this picture.
Real techniques (expert face brush)-this brush has been my favourite for probably the whole of this year so far. It's great as its good for blending in concealer around the nose and eyes. I love the way it spreads the foundation on your skin and I have recommended this brush to many of my friends and they have loved it themselves.
Real techniques (bold metal, arched powder 100 brush)-the minute I got this brush out the packaging I knew I would love it, with the white bristles at first I didn't want to use it as I didn't want them getting dirty as it looked so clean. The benefit of the bristles being white is that you can see how much powder you have put on the brush so whether you've got to much or not. It's great for applying the powder and so soft against the skin.
Rimmel (wake me up concealer)- this is amazing it opens up and brightens your face straight away I can tell a massive difference once it's put on my face straight away. This is one of my must have products as soon as I've ran out I go out and get a new one I put it on everyday just to cover up my spots. I have quite dark circles under my eyes and this really helps get rid of them.
Eyes uncovered (eyeshadow)- the set of eye shadows here are beautiful as I love a shuttle look this is great for me as they have all the colours I could ever ask for. Also I love the names of the colour of eyeshadows because they're named after chocolates and drinks e.g white chocolate, buttercream, biscuit, chocolate milk, brown sugar & espresso. I love the way it feels when it's been applied to my eye as you barely feel it like some and it aplys perfectly.
Infrared (topshop lipstick)- I love the colour of this as its bright and bold and its not just orange as it has a hint of red with it. It aplys really well to the lips which is smooth but after a while with it on your lips it can start to go a bit weird so during the day I recommend that you just keep reapplying it. With the topshop lipsticks I love them all as the colours all vary and they're all so nice but this is my favourite one.
