Best liquid foundation ever!

I have used liquid foundations in the past (usually Dior or Elizabeth Arden) but nothing compares to this! My tone is beige and it matches my skin almost exactly. It glides on seamlessly and doesn't seem to clog my pores. It is very light weight and moisturizing. The only downside is that you have to give it a good shake before applying because it comes out like oily water otherwise. Smells pleasant. Would definitely recommend.

NB. My skin type is more dry than oily nowadays.

BEST SHADE OF ALL TIME - CHANEL's VAMP

After seeing Uma Thurman's perfectly chic and polished nails in Pulp Fiction I had to buy a bottle of Chanel's Vamp (18). I instantly fell in love with this shade and the way it looks so great with any outfit. After 2 coats the consistency is perfect and is pretty chip resistant. I also have diabolic, which is a similar shade to Vamp but slightly more purplish. Love them both!

Good shimmer and wet look option

I'm reviewing Chanel Paupieres 20 which is a pink glitter shade. I find you need to shake the bottle before applying this as it is a very watery texture. I usually apply it with my fingers and blend over my lids since the applicator is by its nature very wet. I usually try and get some of the residue from the top of the bottle and use this to blend in for a stronger effect. Overall i still prefer powder shadows as this stuff feels wet on your lids on application which I don't really like. Good option if you just want to highlight the center of your lid.

If you like Vanilla then buy it

I used to own a bottle but the vanilla notes were overpowering, wouldn't recommend buying this unless you love vanilla scents. I also didn't like the dark bottle because it makes it hard to see how much is left. Would not buy this again but of course it is just my opinion!

Just discovered this kit

I used to fill in my eyebrows with a black eyepencil and brow brush but recently went to the Benefit store and got one of the girls there to tidy up my brows. She showed me this Brow Zings kit and I got it straight away. With my brows filled in correctly, it changed my appearance instantly by framing my face. Now I can't leave the house without using this first. Sometimes I don't use the wax or just use it sparingly. This kit comes with a hard angled brush, soft brush for the powder and small tweezers. Since you don't need to use alot of product, it will last for ages.

Heavenly!

This is my favorite fragrance at the moment, not too heavy, very feminine and girly scent. I spray 2 squirts of this on my neck every night before going to bed. Love the bottle and advert with Kate Moss too.
