Make-Up Mini Haul

Today, I thought I would do a post on some make-up. Now, my prom is coming up (Wednesday 26^th June) and as I’m doing my own make-up for it, I wanted to buy some new items. A while back, Superdrug had a ‘3 for 2’ offer on and so I took advantage of this and popped into one of their stores in my town with my friends. I knew I wanted to get a new foundation and eyeliner, so all I had to do was pick out a brand I wanted, easy right!? Well, not if you’re me! I don’t think I took too long choosing, but I love getting new make-up so wanted it to be right. 

 

First, I picked up this Maybelline ‘FITme!’ foundation. I particularly liked it as when I tested it on my wrist, it had a smooth yet almost matte texture. It wasn’t too silky or shiny which I liked as my skin can be quite oily. Obviously, I couldn’t wait until prom to try it, so on the odd important (ish) occasion, I pop a bit on. It’s so so smooth and has such a high coverage. It makes your skin feel soft and for the first time I actually don’t think you need to wear a powder with it, although I will be! I bought it in shade 115, Ivory (the lightest shade I could find) and this matched me perfectly, thankfully. My skin isn’t extremely pale, so if you are extremely pale, I suppose this foundation probably wouldn’t be for you. I bought this for just £7.99.

Next, I picked up the one powder that is raved over by many beauty bloggers. This is the Rimmel ‘Stay Matte’ pressed powder. I got it in the shade 001, which is ‘transparent.’ I’ve also tried this one on and it is defiantly just as amazing as people say, trust me! I don’t think I will be able to buy a different powder now! It gives such a matte coverage and stays put for hours on end. This is great as it means you don’t have to keep touching it up. I’m unsure as to how long it will last, but you don’t need to use too much at a time- a light dusting over the face is plenty. The description of this product given my Rimmel, is ‘Up to 5 hours natural control with natural minerals. Helps minimise the appearance of pores.’ This again, proves just how much of a great coverage this gives. This product cost me a small amount of £3.99 and for such a good product, it’s a bargain!

Lastly, the ‘free’ item I decided to get on the offer was this Collection ‘Extreme 24 hour felt tip liner..’ I’d already heard quite a few people say that this eyeliner was a great one and I couldn’t agree more. It’s super easy to reply as it just feels like your drawing it on and using a pen. Also, it stays put and doesn’t move out of place all day (unless you rub your eyes or go in water etc, obviously!!) It does the job for me and although I don’t wear eyeliner that much, it is the best one I’ve used! At only £2.99, it’s definitely worth a buy, even if you only wear eyeliner on the odd occasion!
