A Primer For Every Occasion

 
A lot of the time I feel that primers are overlooked and are proclaimed unnecessary, but I have become a primer convert recently and I wanted to share my top 3 primers for different occasions with you.
Rimmel Fix and Perfect- (£6.99) This one is for those long old days where you just want your make up to last, is that too much to ask? Using this primer I would say my make up honestly lasts twice as long and the whole application process is just a lot quicker and my pores are minimised and skin tone is more even.
Bourjois Happy Light Luminous Serum Primer- (£10.99) For those dull looking face days i.e. everyday for me... I use this most days under foundation to just brighten the skin and add a little bit more moisture. It has teeny flecks of shimmer which just add a lovely glowy hue to the skin.
Laura Mercier-Radiance Bronze (£29) The most expensive of the bunch and probably my least favourite, although still fabulous! First time I applied this I honestly thought it could be fake tan, it is pretty highly pigmented at first and can make your face look a tad streaky if not blended in thoroughly but if you master the art of blending you are left with the most gorgeous bronzed complexion and a brilliant base for make up to be applied!
I hope this was helpful,
What is your fave primer?
Lots of love,
Son x

The Shampoo That Saved My Hair

Image
Well that title sounds rather dramatic doesn't it! I'll give you a bit of background info about my hair, its all round difficult to manage, my ends get extremely dry if I don't take good care of them, my roots get extremely oily about 10 minutes after washing (only a slight exaggeration) and my scalp if stripped only slightly too much will begin to flake, how lovely.. So I find it very difficult to keep it looking clean, shiny and healthy, hence why I am automatically drawn to brands which I have tried and tested and know work. However a couple of weeks ago my shampoo of choice which I had been using for about 2 months (L'Oreal EverStrong) had ran out and on my dash to boots it was no where to be found. My mother picked up the Herbal Essences combo which names slips my mind at this moment in time, but it is in a pink bottle. I gave this a go as it looked okay and I had no other options but it completely ruined the state of my hair, after washing I found that my hai

Beauty On A Budget- Naked 2 Alternative

Image
         Like the look of Urban Decay's Naked 2 palette but not loving the price tag? Check out the MUA undressed palette from superdrug for an astonishing £4 compared the Naked 2 which is £37. Both come with 12 different really wearable bronzy shades. The pigmentation and colour pay off is obviously going to be quite a lot better in the naked palette but for the price you pay the MUA palette is a wonderful dupe and can create some equally as great smoky eye looks. If you wanna know more about the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette click  here  for my post on the full review and swatches of each shade. Okay guys, so I've decided to allocate particular days each week for posting new content, for the time being I will post 2 days a week, one day during the working week, most likely on a Wednesday or Thursday and then on a Sunday, I feel like this will give me a proper blogging routine and so you guys know when to come back and check out new content (if you would like t

Dior Colour Awakening Lip Balm

    I know you may be thinking "Isn't this just a super expensive glorified tube of Vaseline?" and yes, you probably are right but heck, who cares! Actually, I would definitely give this more credit than that. I'm not quite sure how it does it but I feel like this can seriously transform your lips from looking really dull, to looking super glossy and plump. This is infused with technology that can change colour according to the temperature of your lips and literally suits every skin tone. I has a really lovely rosey tint to it and wears really well all day. As it is also a lip balm you still feel as though your lips are being taken care of a nourished which is fab. Super impressed with this and would recommend it to anyone that has a slightly larger budget or wants to treat themselves to something they can use everyday! What is your fave lip product at the moment? Lots of love, Son x
