Current Favourite Makeup Base // Summer 2020

Hello darlings.

Today post is all about what base products i have been loving in lock down. To be honest i haven't been wearing a lot of makeup in lock down but these are the products i have been reaching for when i have. They are products that create a minimal glowy look. Perfect for this beautiful weather we are having. 

No7 Skin Illuminator: (£12.50) Who doesn't love a glow? I have quite dry skin so i prefer a dewy/glow base than a matte. I use a thin layer of this product underneath my makeup, a little goes a long way. It gives me a healthy glow, very natural and its great for summer. Its quick and easy product great for busy mums or of you are on the go a lot.

Relvon Colour Stay Foundation: (£12.99) This is an all time favourite foundation of mine, i think i've probably used it on and off for 10+ years now. Its the perfect colour for me, i have the shade buff. Normally i find pale foundations are more pink toned but this one is neutral. Its has good coverage, not to heavy but not sheer. Comes in two formulas one for oily/normal and one normal/dry and i have the latter. Its perfect texture and finish for my skin all year found.

YSL Touche Eclat: (£27.99) This is such a pretty concealer, its a brightening product which as a mum to a 3 year old and a newborn is much needed. Its a light formula, great for under the eyes, doesn't look to cakey or dry. I wouldn't use it on blemishes but with lock down and the little makeup i've been wearing i've had really clear skin so i can go without.  

Mac Radiant Bronzer: (£23.50) This is the newest product to my collection, (my review) This powder is a satin finish as though its advertised as matte, giving a very luminous affect on the skin. 'Lit from within' i should say. The texture is creamy and glides on to the skin. Its quite pigmented, so a little goes a long way. 

No7 Blush in Honey (£9.00) I got this in my No7 Advent Calender last year, i really love the colour. Its a perfect all year round colour, really pretty mauve brown. Its quite sheer so its easy not to go over the top!

I'd love to know what base products are you loving?

Have you tried any of these?

Revlon Colour Stay Foundation Review.

Hello darlings

Today i have for you a review of Revlon's Colour Stay Foundation. I know that many people have reviewed and have raved about it, so i know this is a little late...

But none the less here are my thoughts on it. I hope you enjoy reading :)

As always i'll start with the packaging, I don't like the fact it doesn't have a pump. I feel i waste too much of the product as i always over estimate how much i need, but that just might be me. But the good thing about it is that when its near to running out you can get it all out which is handy.

I find it drys fast so you have to blend it quickly. It lasted about half the day, but the late afternoon you could see it wearing off in patches and some of my blemishes were showing through.

One good thing is It hasn't broke me out, which is always a bonus! Its medium coverage, not heavy or cakey, which is perfect for me. Good colour match to my skin, i got it in 'Buff', which i believe is the palest yellow toned one and it matches my skin pretty well. They had a lighter one in 'Ivory' but it was way to pink toned for me.

The beginning of the day

By the end of the day.

I wouldn't say it my favourite foundation that i have tried but its definitely a good one. The price to me is a little expensive but i guess that all depends on your budget.

You can buy it here for £12.99 (But at the moment its on sale for £9.49!)

Let me know if you've tried this foundation and your thoughts on it are.
