Simple back to school makeup // Budget friendly

Hello darling!

Its that time of year, everyone is going back to school or college/university. I'm now 22 and not in any form of education (i graduated last year, post) but this is a little tradition on my blog and although this is the first year i'm not going back to school i'd still like to do a little makeup post! So bare with me. This year is also a little different i decided to film it! Check out the bottom of the post for the video! 

I always think a simple makeup look is good for school, something that is quick and easy in the morning (we want our sleep!!) And also something that looks pretty and natural. Products that colour correct, cover up create a little glow and add a little colour! All these products are budget friendly and can be found at the drugstore or online as many pupils/students can't afford high end makeup. Products used:

Base:

Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer

MUA Colour Corection Powder

Collection Speedy Highlighter

Eye Brows:

Maybelline Brow Drama

Eyes:

Essence Eye Primer

Rimmel Eye Shadow Quad

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara

Lips:

Maybelline Nude Lipstick 

In the video i added a little more of a pink lipstick which was 'pink in the afternoon by Revlon and i added a little white eyeliner by MUA to brighten my eyes. I hope you enjoyed it!

I'd love to know have you tried any of these products?

My current Skin Care Routine // Summer

Hello darlings.

I haven't written an updated skin care in the longest time. I have tried and love a lot of new products since my last post and i'm excited to share my new routine with you! 

Garnier Micellar Water:

I'll start off with the first step my skin care routine, it is to first take of my makeup. I gave up with using wipes years ago i only use them when i'm travelling or i'm ill or feeling lazy, you know how it goes. I've been a long standing fan of Micellar water an i've tried a few over the years and the one i always go back to is the Garnier one. Its perfect, it dissolves makeup like a dream, no need to rinse and there's no smell or taste to it.  

Superdrug Deep Action 2in1 Detoxifying Cream Wash and Mask:

Next up washing my face, an important part! I have suffered with problem skin for quite some time, if you are a regular reader you've heard me say it a million times. One thing that was helping my skin was the contraceptive pill but now i'm pregnant (previous post) i am no longer taking it so my bad skin has come back. So deep action products like this one are really helping my skin. Plus you can always use it as a mask too which is great. 

Simple Clear Skin Exfoliator:

Similar to the previous product this one is aimed at problem skin. This exfoliator is gentle and lathers well. Its s very gentle exfoliator lots i've tried have been too harsh for my dry skin. I have always love Simple's products they are also so gentle on my skin and i think its a great product for teenagers and people with sensitive and spot prone skin. 

Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum:

I review this products a couple months ago, it was my little splurge for finishing my dissertation and i have to say i'm so happy that i purchase it. With this product you do not need a lot, a pump or two goes a long way! The liquid drys fast, it isn't sticky or tacky so its perfect to apply first thing in the morning and to wear under makeup. It provides a smooth base and it is absorbed into the skin quickly. I haven't tried many serums so i don't have much to compare it to but i really like it.

Palmer Coco Butter Line Smoothing Eye Cream: 

Last of all eye cream. I've only just started using this product but i already love it. Its thick, creamy and rubs in beautifully. I don't think this product work miracles, it brightens eyes but i wouldn't say it helps with wrinkles if i'm honest. But as an everyday eye cream its pretty good! 

I'd love to know have you tried any of these products?

What products are part of your skin care routine?
