MAC Studio Waterweight Foundation

Last weekend I went shopping and picked up the new MAC Studio Waterweight Foundation, I had wanted a new foundation for a while because the foundation I had been using wasn't working for me. I have found this foundation to be amazing so I wanted to do a small review on it for all of you.


Firstly I got the foundation in the shade NC15 which I think is one of the lightest shades and it matches my skin perfectly (I definitely recommend getting your shade matched in a MAC store). One thing that I found completely different from any other foundations is that it has a dropper which I actually like better than a pump because it doesn't get as messy.


To apply this foundation I have used a real techniques buffing brush and a real techniques beauty blender and I find that the beauty blender is better to use. The foundation has a sheer to medium coverage which I love because I don't like to have a lot of coverage, and the first thing I noticed when I put this on is that it didn't cake up anywhere on my face which is a problem I had with the L'Oreal True Match Foundation. It also feels so weightless on my face and although it has a sheer coverage I find that it covers my blemishes really well.


Overall this foundation is perfect and even though I have oily skin it does control some of the oil and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new foundation. It is reasonably expensive being £25.50 but it is definitely worth it!

Spring Lips

At this time of year I tend to stop wearing darker lipsticks and start leaning towards nude and light colour lipsticks, I have added a lot to my collection of lipsticks recently and most have been perfect for Spring so I picked four to show you which I have been wearing constantly. Also the swatch on my hand from left to right is; Too Faced Lipstick, YSL Lipstick, Mac in Blankety and Mac in Velvet Teddy.


MAC | Blankety
This was a lipstick that I got for my birthday and at first I didn't think that this colour would suit me at all because its so light but I was surprised to find that I loved it! It is a Amplified Creme Lipstick so is a very creamy and moisturising formula which is lovely for this time of year and the colour is a gorgeous light pink colour.


MAC | Velvet Teddy
Velvet Teddy is a very popular shade of lipstick from Mac and I love it to, its slightly darker than the rest of the lipsticks but is still a lovely matte nude for spring time.


YSL | 9 Nude In Private
I have never bought from YSL before and this was a very quick purchase from duty free so I was a bit nervous that I had wasted my money but I was very pleased because the colour is a nude pink shade (a little more pink than anything else I own). But the best thing about this lipstick is the formula because it is so creamy and goes on your lips so easily.


Too Faced | Nude
When I first tried this I didn't like it very much and I found that it didn't last for long at all but I have recently started using it again and I love the colour which is a perfect nude for spring and how easy it is to apply.

I love all of these lipsticks and recommend all of them to you although they are all on the pricey side I think it is worth it for the quality you get and they are great for the Spring and Summer months.

What I Got For My Birthday 2016

You might have noticed that I haven't posted for 2 weeks which I am very sorry about but I was on a school skiing trip that run over both Saturdays that I wanted to post on however in the week I was away it was my birthday on the 31st of March on which my friends that went on the trip with me made the day amazing. I turned 15 and received some gifts from family and friends which I am so grateful for and so I decided to gather everything I got and show you it, I am just going to list everything I got instead of writing about it because I think it may become boring if I write about every single present.

I love every single thing that was given to me and I was mainly given money from my family for my birthday which I didn't include in the list. I can't believe that the Easter holidays are nearly over already but I had a great time and I will probably show you some pictures from skiing on here soon.
