Back in the middle of December I completely changed my
makeup routine as I was fed up with using the same products and I feel like my
skin was getting quite bad. So one night I went on a massive superdrug haul!
My first purchase was the Maybelline baby skin instant
fatigue blur in warm apricot. This honestly leaves my skin so smooth and helps
me apply my foundation. What I also like about this product is for those days
when you don’t want to wear any makeup I just put a bit of this on and it just
makes me look a bit more awake!
The next thing I decided to switch up was my foundation, I
used to love my Rimmel matching perfection but the last few months I have just
hated the way it looks and felt on my skin. I’m not sure why but I knew I
needed a change so I decided to go for the L’oreal Infallible 24hour matte
foundation. I am seriously in love with this foundation and I’m so glad I got
it! I love the way it feels on my skin it doesn’t feel heavy and it makes my
skin look really nice. Another thing I like about it is that it is a full
coverage which means I don’t actually need concealer which is a pro in the
morning as anything that speeds up the makeup process is a winner!
To apply my foundation I used to use a buffing brush but in
my little (actually rather big haul) I brought myself the real techniques
complexion sponge. I find this works best when it is damp as it gives a really
nice flawless finish. The only downside is it is a nightmare to clean!
Next up was Tanya Burr’s rosy flush cheek palette. I mainly
only use the blush (Pretty Peony) and the highlight (Oyster Shell) and I love
how natural it looks. It gives the perfect amount of product and adds a really
subtle highlight, which I love. I also use a bit of the blush sometimes as an
eye shadow and the highlighter under my brow. Then for mascara I just use the Maybelline
the falsies.
Then to set that all in place I use the L’oreal Infallible
fixing mist, which works really well. It also means I don’t need to use any
powder which I like. I have been loving this new combination of products and my
skin has been a lot better aswell.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Let me know your thoughts in
