Sunday Face

"The look on a persons face after having been deprived of sleep due to binge drinking/taking drugs... usually after a good weekend" - Urban Dictionary

Well that definition isn't at all accurate, I've had plenty of sleep and I haven't had booze for a week, this is just my face! Not sure if this will be a regular thing, just felt like doing it today!

Hair - absolutely natural

Face - Clinique Tinted Moisturiser (03 Neutral)
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer (Light 2)
Mac Blusher (Ambering Rose)
No. 7 Beautiful Brows Pencil (Brown/Black)
MUA Undressed Eyeshadow Palette (1, 2, 7, 8)
Urban Decay 24/7 Eye Pencil (Zero)
Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick (Pink Brown)

Necklace - H&M
Top - Bon Jovi 2000 (Thrifted)

So there we go, another new thing I'm trying, apologies for the constant bad quality iPhone pictures!

Let me know if you like this kind of post, I'll be trying a triple photo thing later this week.

MAC Wishlist

Now like most bloggers, I adore MAC cosmetics but unfortunately I can't afford to buy much from them.

However over the past few months I've been deciding which products I most want to buy from MAC when I have a steady job and some disposable income after University and these are my top picks, of Foundation, Powder, 4 eyeshadows and a lipstick!

1. Face and Body Foundation - £26.50
2. Mineralize Skin Finish in Soft & Gentle - £21.50
3. Eyeshadow in Woodwinked - £12.00
4. Eyeshadow in Naked Lunch - £12.00
5. Eyeshadow in Carbon - £12.00
6. Eyeshadow in Mulch - £12.00
7. Lipstick in Russian Red - £14.00

Are you a fan of MAC, own any of the items on my wishlist or think there's something great that I missed?

Mini Boots Haul!

Eco-tools Buffing Brush £9.99
Collection 2000 Colour Match Foundation £3.99
VO5 Give Me Texture Instant Oomph Powder
 and Tousled Style Spray 2 for £5

I didn't have too much money to spend, but I managed to get a few of the items from my shopping list post. I absolutely fell in love with this Collection 2000 foundation, I can't believe it's on offer for only £3.99!

I've decided that when my MaxFactor runs out I'm moving onto Bourjois Healthy Mix for my heavier coverage foundation. The texture is just so gorgeous and it blended so nicely when I swatched it on my wrist. I also tried the Revlon Colorstay foundation but for £12.49 I don't know if it's worth it, and I don't know if I exactly match either the 2nd or 3rd shade. I'd rather invest in MAC Face and Body that I can get matched to my skin tone and that will last a lot longer, but that won't be for awhile anyway.

I'm excited to have a buffing brush to add to my collection, hopefully it will give more even coverage than just a standard foundation brush, and Eco-Tools are pretty good quality for the price.


Boots had an offer on 2 V05 styling products for £5, so I decided on the Instant Oomph Powder and Tousled Style Spray to work with my naturally wavy hair. I also thought these products would be fun to try out with my new Remington Pearl Pro Styler - a little bit of an impulse buy from an old Fleur DeForce video but as it's half price on Amazon, how could I resist?

I hope you enjoyed my little haul, as always if you have any comments or questions you can leave them below, or chat to me on twitter!
