Nothing To See Here..


Quite literally nothing at all. Or for days when you're just not bothered. And for the last few weeks, this has been my go-to look for exactly that, when I'm just not that bothered. Since doing my make up course over the Summer and being qualified and whatnot, I tend to wear emphasised and dramatic make up everyday. I don't distinguish between day and night and like to be creative with what I put on my face. 

Sometimes, in college (or Uni for all of you English peeps), this just looks a bit out of place. There is definitely a make up artist 'look' and I think a part of me wanted to prove that I could be like that, and had to look like that every day. Its only recently that I've realised I don't have to if I don't feel like it. And so, here is what I wear when I just want to look like me. 

Armani Designer Lift Foundation* I adore this foundation, its one that glides onto the skin, provides a flawless base and is dewy in the nicest places. Its always such a treat when I wear this and I would definitely think of repurchasing. Toying between this and Rimmel Wake Me Up at the moment, and its close call! Shock because of the price different!

Benefit Sugarbomb Blush* Although not a massive fan of Benefit's gimmicky packaging, this is a beautiful coral blush, with the smallest hint of pink; creating a gorgeous flush on the skin.

Jemma Kidd Dewy Glo in Iced Gold Possibly the nicest cream highlight ever. Its subtle enough to be worn throughout the day but can be used at night too, and it blends so nicely that it never looks over the top.

Benefit Leggy Eyeshadow* Very much like MAC Naked Lunch, but slightly more shimmery.

MAC Omega Eyeshadow I now use this for my brows and contour - its the most versatile shade ever and is so easy to blend

MAC What Comes Naturally Lipliner Probably not completely necessary, but I love pale nude
lips and this helps to act as a base for lipstick and gloss and is super creamy

Benefit Life on the A List* Lipgloss A lovely slightly shimmery lipgloss that is natural for daytime and lasts a good while

MaxFactor False Lash Effect* My mascara of choice recently, its wand separates the lashes nicely, its a dark black formula and its easy to take off (I'm looking at you, Benefit They're Real)
