What's in my make-up bag today

I absolutely adore this Longchampcase le pliage, which I use as a make up bag you can fit everything in, great for travelling or for everyday.


So let’s have a peek what’s inside, haven’t got that much in here today as I am wearing very light make-up. I went for a very soft natural dewy look which is great if you want the natural effortless look.

I started off with bronzing my face all over as a base. I used Guerlain’s Terracotta 4 seasons bronzing powder in “Natural 02”. When I apply this powder I keep building it up until I get the colour I want.

I then added definition to my eyebrows using Estee lauders “automatic brow duo” in soft brown. I find this brow pencil gives off a very natural look as I find some pencils give off a very harsh look. If you wanted a stronger looked you can just build it up and I like to add a bit of water to my eye brows.

For my lashes I went for Estee Lauder’s “sumptuous extreme” mascara. I have miniscule lashes so this mascara gives me extra length and volume without clumps.

On my cheeks I dusted them with Mac’s “mineralize blush” in “warm soul”, it has a shimmery effect which I find helps give the dewy look. 
I applied it with my angled conture brush by mac, to help enhance my cheek bones.

Lastly I finished off with No7 high shine lip crayon in “daydreamer”.

Review: No7 High Shine Lip Crayon

So my beauty lovers!! I’ve discovered a new lippy, from a brand that I never really looked at No.7 in boots. 

 Now whenever I do a shop in boots I often get a £5 voucher to spend on the No 7 range, but I always end up chucking it away. However I was running low on my nude lipstick and thought I would use my voucher to purchase a new lippy. Recently I was introduced to lip crayons and was eyeing up either the Nars or Clinque range, but because I was eager to use my voucher I decided to try No.7’s own lip crayon range. After rummaging through the colours I managed to find a natural/nude colour called “daydreamer” for my skin complexion, which is what I was looking for. 



This particular lip crayon is “High Shine” and gives a nice glossy look. I’m pretty chuffed with my bargain as I only paid £4 with my £5 off(originally £9), ladies hunt through your bags for your No.7 voucher and grab yourself a bargain also.
