Review: NARS sheer glow

After using MAC's studio fix foundation for 2 years i vowed to be loyal as i couldn't see anything matching it, but recently my skins been looking dull and the foundation seemed to add to it. So, i crumbled to gave into the hype of NARS sheer glow in Fiji.


I got this off ASOS for £29.50, when it arrived i thought - this is far too light, the swatches on the website are really bad. I'm usually  an NC30 in MAC. However as it was so expensive i thought i'd give it ago. 


When i applied it, it seemed to match my skin tone really well and working with the foundation is like a dream i have never applied a foundation that blends so evenly and smoothly ever. 
I like to wear face tan to give me more of a glow, and assumed this would be out the question as this foundation is so light. HOWEVER, it looked even better over the foundation - strange. It may of been because i applied one layer and it is a sheer foundation so it evened out my skin tone perfectly.

The down side to this foundation i find is that it does not photograph well - for me anyway. It made me look washed out and like i had no make up on at all.

I'm not sure about a repurchase - maybe a shade darker? I think however i will go back to MAC...

Illamasqua's Gleam Cream

I cannot rave about this product enough it is an amazing cream highlighter that consists of the perfect colours to give a real illuminating finish. It's definitely a reach for product when your skin is looking dull.



As you can see from the middle picture the colours are luminous which is what i really love about this. It retails for around £23 but if you check ASOS sale regularly it goes down to £13 which is when i got it.
You get 36g of product and this has truly lasted me a long long time, i also have powder highlighters such as MAC MSF but this is what i go back to time and time again.
This will definitely be a re purchase when its gone!



These swatches show it mildly blended so that i could really catch the true colours

A matte nail & 50 % off ELF

Im loving matte nails recently. I wasn't a fan to begin with however im loving this one by Nails Inc called Tooley Street it's sort of a dark green.


The only problem with this is it can chip quickly as you can't use a top coat. I did however use a base coat with this and it has lasted quite well.
ELF have also created a product that you apply as a top coat and it turns any nail varnish matte costing £1.50. I can't wait to test it out and give you a review, it's now available just yet though.

In the mean time though go over to ELF now for 50% off everything. It ends today so hurry 
Just enter the discount code

250KFB

at the checkout for and everything will be discounted.

enjoy!

An old pink lipstick ..

Do you have an old pink lipstick that you don't use to often but don't want to throw away?
Why not use it as a cream blush?

I've used 17's Dreamy lasting fix lipstick


Alls you need to do it put some on your cheeks lightly and blend it out .. heres a swatched example

So the 2nd image shows the lipstick blended, of course for a more pink finish you can add more on. If your lipstick is slightly glossy, just add some translucent powder over the top and it will feel matte.
Of course this isnt going to be to everyones taste 

Do you have any tips or tricks?
