I've been pretty limited in terms of product choice this week, I've been back in Bournemouth since Tuesday with just a small makeup bag, and a selection of skincare samples. The plus side of this is it was pretty easy to pick out which products I've been loving the most.
I decided to pack my NARS One Night Stand Palette since it contains four blushes, a bronzer and a highlight, it's got all my cheek needs covered, and I've remembered just how much I love it. The last month or so I've been using my newer NARS single blushes and neglecting my One Night Stand Palette but I love the shades in this. I've been wearing Orgasm and Goulue the most, and they're gorgeous.
I have a full size of the YSL Babydoll Mascara, but I decided to chuck in a mini sample of it I had for my trip home, since it's a great space saving size. I didn't originally like it when I first used it, but it is growing on me. It's not as good as the YSL Shocking mascara in my opinion, but it does separate my lashes and define them nicely, giving great length. A nice every day option.
Two MAC products I've been loving this week, first the MAC Mineralize Concealer, which I love for under my eyes, it's got good medium coverage but it's also quite brightening. I like to apply this in a triangle under my eye, and then blend it out with my ring finger. The other product is the MAC Lipstick in Craving, which I bought on a weak day for no particular reason and hadn't worn since. I don't think that this suits me applied directly to the lips, but I do like to just pat a little bit into my lips more like a stain, and then top it with a lip balm. This has photographed really bright pink, I don't know why since in reality it's a dark pinky colour.
Another Model's Own polish I've been loving this week, is the Velvet Goth Polish in Valerian, a gorgeous Royal Blue with different shape and size glitter. It finishes matte but I've been wearing it with a glossy top coat and I really like it, even the boy commented on it!
I also wanted to mention the boots I've been wearing all week, they're the F&F Cut Out Western Boots in Brown* and oh my god they're the comfiest boots ever. They have a slight heel but whatever it's made from means it squishes slightly underfoot, making it incredibly comfortable, you don't even realise you're wearing heels! I love the side detail too, and they're in the sale here for only £15! I've had quite a few pairs of boots from F&F now and they always last forever, they're really well made, especially considering the price!
What have you been loving this week?

ReplyDeleteGreat post, absolutely heart broken that I wasn't able to pick up the One Night Stand Pallet - definitely a case of "the one that got away". and I absolutely adore those boots! Heather | porcelainbeautyx
ReplyDeleteMan I really need the nars palette, it just looks so pretty :) I can't believe how cheap you got your boots, I should really look at what shops like tesco have in their clothes section more often, I've been loving Revlon's Mauve it over matte lipstick this week and my Marc Jacobs Honey Perfume :p xEmmiHearts
