The Perfect Match: MAC Lip Pencil and Lipsticks

-



Faux

Velvet Teddy


A big part of being at uni is going out on a daily basis and getting a bit sloppy so I soon realised that keeping your make up look fresh was harder than it seemed.
So here I introduce the nude lip, in my opinion, a timeless lip-look that has blown up thanks to Kylie Jenner's super enhanced chops. Now when it comes to MAC I found the perfect combo of lip pencil to lipstick colour ratio.
Lip Pencil - Dervish - £12.50
Lipstick - Velvet Teddy or Faux - £15.50 each
Velvet Teddy, now a hugely popular lip colour by MAC is a matte lipstick that truly stays on all night, even after the 3am chicken nuggets. Combined with the lip pencil your lip shape never disappears which is great.
Faux on the other hand is a satin lipstick and is perfect for those nights where things take a more chilled turn. The lip pencil stays in place however I would recommend re-applying the lipstick whenever you feel necessary to maintain the look. 
These two MAC lipsticks are not only my favourite but blend perfectly with the Dervish Lip Pencil which really spares the time of searching for the right lip liner to match. 

Thanks for reading, and I'd love to know what your favourite MAC combos are!

Benefit They're Real! Mascara

Well hey there! I thought I'd slip in a blog post between homeworks and coursework and tell you all about this unbelievable mascara from Benefit. Benefit is my favourite brand of make-up and always produces amazing products and so I can't rave about this mascara enough and encourage anyone who is looking for a new mascara to definitely give this a try.  I wear this mascara everyday and it never fails to make my lashes look amazing (if I do say so myself). It ticks all the boxes for length, volume and curl and the 'jet-black' colour stands out no matter how long you wear it. Whenever I use a mascara that isn't waterproof I always end up with black smudges under my eyes which always use to annoy me and made it so difficult to find a good mascara, but with Benefit They're Real! mascara I've never had this problem which really surprised, because it was the first non-waterproof mascara that I could wear all day without any smudges.

Well hey there! Huge apology for the lack of posts lately, school work is slowly taking over my life and leaving me with a non-existent social life and seriously sleep deprived. I wanted to make a commitment to myself to do a monthly favourites but I don't think that's ever going to be possible with my combination of laziness and an never-ending pile of work, so I thought I'd just drop a quick mention of what I've been using lately. So it isn't a lot but here are some recent discoveries of products/stuff I've become completely obsessed with starting with the Rimmel Lasting Finish Colour Rush in 'Not An Illusion'. This is great to wear on a day-to-day basis or for a school day look as it just gives a tint of colour but isn't too glossy. It has a very sweet/chocolatey smell and I pretty much wear it everyday recently. Next beauty related product I adore (which is no surprise) is the Benefit Hoola Bronzing Powder. I got it as part

NARS Sheer Glow Foundation / Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

Well hello there! Today I wanted to show my favourite (and in my opinion the best) foundation and concealer around. The NARS Sheer Glow Foundation and the Collection Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Concealer are the perfect combination for a minimal make-up look, or when built up great for special occasions. On days when I'm too lazy to bother with a full face of make-up, I use the Collection Concealer on its own to cover-up any blemishes (which are a constant on my face) and dark circles. This product is highly pigmented and has such a good coverage but still has a natural look. In this concealer I am a shade Light 2. Again and again I go back to this product and in my opinion it is amazing. The applicator is easy to use and great for applying under the eyes and the packaging is simple. The only thing I would change about this product is making it bigger, so it would last longer and spare me the time of going out and repeatedly buying new ones. Having
