Sleek stiletto matte lipstick swatch

I got this in a glossybox I think that is was decembers and I thought I would show you the colour because it is lovely. It is a matte red and it is pretty moisturising for a matte lipstick which is great.



 
I will definetly be buying some more sleek lipsticks soon because this one is pigmented and moisturising. If you have any colour suggestions be sure to let me know.

Sunday scents: Avon little black dress

I have got the body mist today to show you but it also comes in a perfume and a deodrant. The bottle holds 100ml but I do find that body sprays do go down faster than perfume because the smell doesn't stay around for as long. I would describe the smell as sexy and sophisticated. It is quite musky and fruity. I would say that it is one of those perfumes that can be used as a sexy day scent and as a lighter night scent.

I would definetly recommend this scent. You can choose which type you want, body mist, perfume or deodrant. It is a lovely and it smells even better throughout the day.
I hope you enjoyed sunday scents.

Miracle face product?!?

 
This is the Dr Jart BB cream Water Fuse. Now I have tried several western beauty balms before and I wasn't really that impressed and I didn't understand the hype. Now i do. Dr. Jart also do other types of BB creams. I have the one that is for dry to normal skin , Water Fuse. I have a decently sized sample of this product which I got in my october glossybox. I have used it for over a few months now and I absolutely love it.

The product is decsribed as a oil free hydrating moisturiser, water holding system, sunscreen and aloe and hides uneven skin tone and blemishes. I would agree. It gives a natural but almost flawless coverage, I don't know how it is done but my skin looked amazing after I applied it and my skin has actually got better whilst i have been using this instead of foundation.

I do still have to cover up my bigger blemishes with a concealer the concealer I have been using is the Witch concealer stick in 00 ivory. It leaves a a lovely healthy, dewy glow. I found it to be a little too dewy somedays especially when I applied a moisturiser underneath, so to mattify a little and give me a little extra coverage I dusted over a bit of Bare Minerals mineral foundation. I use this on good skin days or days that I just want to look more natural.

It also has spf25 which is great, it hardly leaves any white cast in flash photos basically nothing, definitely not as much as you would think for a product with spf25. I would definitely go as far as saying that this is a miracle face product because it makes your skin look better whilst your wearing it and after. It isn't as much coverage as you would want on a night out probably but if you have reasonable good skin and want a product that isn't bad for your skin, thats actually good for your skin and makes you look healthy and more put together then I would definitely recommend this for you.

What do you think of BB creams? Do you think they're worth the hype?

Sunkissed skin for the new year

Recently I have been wanting a bit more colour in my face but I haven't wanted to fully fake tan. So I was searching through my draws and I found this Olay complete care everyday sunshine in light sunkissed glow. It is exactly what I was looking for, it gives me a lovely natural glow which doesn't look orange in the slightest. It is white and I use it after my toner, before my moisturiser.

 
I gently exfoliate everyday, so I apply it everyday, but if you didn't exfoliate everyday, then it would build up quite a deep natural tan. It also smells lovely and sweet. Make sure you also blend down your neck so you don't get a line.

Do you have any good products for giving a sunkissed glow to the skin?
I hope you found this helpful.
