Hey guys! Today was just a relaxed day at home, I was going to film a video so I decided to put some makeup. I actually really loved how it turned out because it was just simple but I used quite muted cool tones on my cheeks and lips so it was a change.

My other motivate as to why I put makeup on is so that I wouldn't touch and pick at the healing blemishes on my face (yes I actually find putting makeup on my face helps with healing pimples, obviously don't wear tons when the pimple is still active!) so after one or two days, the pimples will have vanished with only smooth skin and a tiny scar is left.

Ok off topic, that happens a lot, on to the makeup on my face:

Products Used:

• Benefit 15 Hour Stay Flawless Primer
• Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in 103 True Ivory
• Benefit Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation in Petal, mixing both foundations half/half (it turned out to be a bit yellow for my skin)
• Maybelline Coverstick in Medium Beige
• Hourglass Brow Sculpting Pencil in Dark Brunette
• Anastasia Tinted Brow Gel in Espresso
• NARS Smudgeproof Eyeshadow Base
• Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze
• Stila in the Light Palette: Kitten on the lid and inner corner, Bliss through the crease, Bare on the brow bone and Gilded Gold on the outer third and lower lash line
• NARS Larger Than Life Eyeliner in Via Veneto, tight line and water line the whole way
• L'Oreal Perfect Slim Super Liner
• Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping Mascara
• Max Factor Clump Defy Mascara
• Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer in Fair
• Hourglass Ambient Light Setting Powder in Luminous Light
• Benefit Hoola Bronzer
• MAC Plum Foolery Blush
• Rimmel Kate Moss Long Lasting Lipstick in 19
• Urban Decay Chill Setting Spray

My hair is just a fishtail on the side with a twist at the base of the plait and the top I'm wearing is a plain dancer tee from Cotton On Active.

If you guys would like a tutorial on it I'm more than happy to do it just let me know! In person the blush is a bit more visible, it actually matches the shade of the lipstick quite well. If you want to check out the makeup in action you can watch the video of my face here.

Anyway I'll talk to you guys next time :)
