Full coverage foundation routine for acne, scars etc using Vichy Dermablend

This foundation lasts literally all day and it doesn't make my skin feel dry which I love because my skin is verrrry dry!! Also it doesn't settle into my pores or wrinkles! And you only need a tiny amount of foundation and it blends in so easily!


More information on these products below

I also used the Mary-Lou-Manizer to highlight
Benefit Hoola to contour
For my lips I had a sheer layer of Sleek Pout Paint in "port"
I looked up vitiligo - Vitiligo is a long-term condition that causes pale, white patches to develop on the skin due to the lack of a chemical called melanin.

Bareminerals READY to go complexion perfection palette in R230 medium golden skin tones

youtube video

In this video I'm showing you how this palette comes out on me.

I usually use the shade "golden light" but ordered this one by mistake but i'm glad I did because I think this shade actually suits me better, the golden light is actually a bit too light for me!

R.R.P is £39 but I only paid £20.82 for this =-p

The kit contains:

Ready spf 20 foundation in R230
Ready spf 15 touch up veil in light
Ready Bronzer in The skinny dip
Ready luminizer in Light 2
Spf 20 correcting concealer in Light 2
Mini precision face brush
Mini tapered face brush
Keepsake makeup clutch

This would be perfect if you want to try out bareminerals products for the time, it's everything you need for your skin except blusher, if I didn't already have a collection of the foundations, I would have just stuck to this (would've saved a lot of room too!)

Many other colours for darker or lighter skin tones are available!

Then I used my bareminerals blush in Pink petal
and on my lips, marvellous moxie lipgloss in REBEL

I love this, it will come in handy when you're in a rush, you could keep it in your handbag or in the car or waiting at the bus stop =-p

I find the READY products so much easier to apply than the loose powders and you can build up how much coverage you want!

Real techniques miracle complexion sponge with Bourjois 123 perfect foundation in light vanilla review



I really liked this sponge, I paid £4.99 for it from Amazon.

I think this sponge works much better at blending liquid foundation in rather than using a foundation brush, so I was really pleased with it!

However, I wasn't as keen on the Bourjois 123 perfect foundation, I thought the colour match with my skin was good, it evened out my skin tone and didn't feel heavy on my skin at all, but I just don't really like wearing liquid foundations even though I do find it more hydrating on my skin because I have very dry skin and even though bareminerals foundation isn't supposed to dry your skin out, I find sometimes it can feel very dry and tight, but this liquid foundation didn't feel dry at all!
 And I don't think it gave me very good coverage even though I used a lot of it and my skin did look very oily in the video which I didn't like, but then again if i powdered my face it might not have been so bad.

If you'd like to see how it works for yourself and see how I did my eyeshadow you can watch my video here =-D
