Nars Consultation And Purchases

12:00 Unknown 0 Comments


So last weekend I took a trip to Liverpool and while I was there I popped into the Harvey Nichols Beauty Bazaar to get a consultation at the Nars counter. Below I've listed everything she used on me, and then I made a few purchases (with several of the other products being added to my wish list!). 

I hope you enjoy this post, read on for products...

Foundation: Sheer Glow in Mont Blanc
Concealer: Creamy Concealer in Vanilla
Powder: Light Reflecting Loose Setting Powder
Eyes: 
Soft Touch Shadow Pencil in Skorpios
Duo Eyeshadow in St Paul De Vence
Eye Paint in Black Valley
Volumising Mascara in Black
Brows: 
Brow Perfector in Kalamata
Brow Gel in Athens
Bronzer: Bronzing Powder in Laguna
Cheek: Dual Intensity Blush in Craving
Lips:
Velvet Lip Liner in Waimea
Satin Lip Pencil in Lodhi

Nars Sheer Glow - Mont Blanc

Soft Touch Shadow Pencil - Skorpios

I thoroughly enjoyed my consultation with Nars, for a number of reasons, but I knew as soon as I saw the consultant/MUA that it was going to go well as she had the exact eye makeup look I would go for - a bronze copper warm toned look! We really talked about both my skin and makeup type as well as my style and what I would normally wear, then we found the best products for me. Luckily at the end she wrote down all the products we had used (also very helpful so I could tell you guys) so that I can go back to the list to pick up the other products I loved - the Laguna bronzer is definitely next on the list!

Finished look with an added red lip (not the product listed)

I hope you liked this post, something a little different to a haul! I have two more Liverpool posts coming your way - a MAC haul and an outfits post from the weekend - so make sure to follow to see these and more posts on Mondays and Fridays.

Thank you for reading!

Summer City Night

12:00 Unknown 2 Comments


I am really getting into being more experimental with fashion and blogging about fashion, so today I have an outfit post from my recent trip to York.

The weather was very hot for what we're used to in the UK, and this was my summer evening look...








Dress - Boohoo
Shoes - Topshop
Jacket - Boohoo
Sunglasses - New Look
Bag - Accessorize
Rings - Accessorize

I really loved this look and found that it was really simple but still made a statement. The night was so warm that the jacket wasn't really needed but I always like to have something to hand. The sandal boots are a new addition to my wardrobe but I can see myself getting a lot of wear out of them through the next few months.

I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know any thoughts below.

Thanks for reading!

Clinique Haul

12:01 Unknown 0 Comments


Firstly, I've had a few weeks off as life appears to fall together and then from my experience falls apart - not going into any details here though. 

Anyway, in between all of the drama I did a little shopping at Clinique and thought I'd share what I picked up...



The reason for the shop was to pick this product up as I was nearly (and now completely) finished my current one and it is a product I couldn't live without. I use this as a general moisturiser or boost of hydration during the day, as well as a primer before makeup. It smooths the skin leaving it plumped and a perfect base. 


I also wanted to pick up a concealer as up until this point I had only ever tried drugstore concealers which, given the very bad under eye circles I have, were not matching up to the job. I am in love with this product! It is amazing at covering any imperfection, super easily to blend with my finger and manages to remain even without settling into lines or creases. 


This came as part of a free set and was by far the stand out product, it is a perfect primer for makeup under the eyes. It works very similar to the moisture surge but for the eyes - I love it and definitely will be needing the full size. 


Also included in free gift, handy travel essential to remove makeup. I like this product however I find the oil really lingers on the skin and therefore would only use as a first cleanse and not the only cleanse. 


I have yet to try the sample size mascara however the only downfall is that it isn't waterproof as at the moment I am a complete convert to waterproof mascara. I've heard good things about this one though so I will give it a go.


And the final free gift was this lip product - which I went on to break as it is very soft - but I love the colour and I am always up for a new lip product to try.


I hope you enjoyed this post and I should be back to posting every Monday and Friday from now.

Thank you for reading!
