Loveeee

I have 7 of these, Black, White, Yellow, Orange, Red, Crimson and Blue. I love all of them the texture when applied looks great. I use them on myself and also on photoshoots and the pigment you get from these products are so good! however prepping the lips is a bonus and sometimes find that my lips get quite dry when using them, but no pain no gain and all that! I love mixing the white and blue together because the blue starts off really dark and you can get some gorgeous shades from them together. My least favourite is the yellow it doesnt feel as thick as the others in consistancy and you need to use loads to get a block yellow, there are ways to get round this like buying yellow lip pencils or conceal the lips first. But with all the others you are able to just paint them on to get a full look. They last forever as well which is good, the only thing about these lip mixes is that they are a pro product so only people who own a mac pro card can purchase them (UK anyway). However you can mix anything to the product and it does what it says on the tin.

I dont particularly use Benetint as a lip tint, however when I have it seems to dry my lips out, and I don't feel really like the feel of it on my lips. I do however like the light colour it gives my cheeks, it blends well, my cheeks look flushed rather than blushered, so it gives a good natural look. It's also easy to apply you can use your fingers or a brush, and I love the colour!

As always Benefit delivers on their packaging. That Gal does kind of brighten and moisturises, but then it doesn't really. I think as an overall product That Gal isn't really a primer because it doesn't really prime the skin well it makes no difference and doesn't give that 'dewy glow'. You can however use it as quite a good highlighter, it creamer than Benefits high beam so if you don't want a full highlighted look 'That Gal' is perfect for it.

So I have 4 Face and Body foundations C1, C6, N1 and N7. These are for my make up kit, I personally love these foundations they are light but have a good coverage and are great for photoshoots. As the foundations are so light you can easily build it up and it doesn't look caked on. Its also good for most skin types, so it's a good all rounder. However the foundations are so watery even when shaken, I don't mind this but I know many people who don't like the consistency of it. There are ways to thicken the foundation; you can cup the foundation it your palm and move the foundation around with your fingers until thickened. You can also leave the lids off over night which slightly thickens the foundations. As for the shades I tend to mix the colours up to get the perfect shade, but any MAC counter girls will be able to pick out the best shade for you :) x

Yum!

After dipping in and out of lush stores and never buying anything, I decided that today I'd take the plunge. After reading and hearing about these lip scrubs through blogs and social media sites, I thought it'd be a good place to start in the lush world. What can I say?! I love this product; it tastes amazing and there's a real difference in the condition of my lips since using it, it's gentle but you can still feel the product working, and the smell and taste of this product is yummy! The packaging is so cute and it's handy to take anywhere. I can understand why people would think of this as a waste of money I paid £5.50 for this and at the end of the day it's a flavoured sugar, but I think that it's amazing and let's be honest it'd be a very messy job if you wanted to try and re-create this product at home!
