My Everyday Make Up.

I wanted to do a quick post for you guys about the make up I've been wearing everyday for about a week. I know that isn't long but it's a real neutral look for me and is done in minutes. 

A neutral look isn't something I usually go for. I've been using the MAC Wonder Woman lipstick in Marquis D' and the Collection (2000) eyeshadow trio in Naughty n Nude and I think they work fabulously together. I sometimes find with a neutral look you spend hours and it looks like you haven't done a think. This look gives you a finished  look, like you do actually have make up on! I spend about 5 minutes on my make up in the morning and its also really easy to touch up during  the day if I need to.

It's a simple look so you can get away with very few brushes. The powder brush is a Sigma SS 150 from the travel sets so I tend to keep this one in my hand bag. We then have an SS194, a MAC 224, a 1/8 angled liner brush and a MAC 190. 

I'm still using the Nivea Express Hydration Primer everyday and loving it. I've got  back to using the MAC Studio Fix Fluid as it just works the best for me. I'm so into my brows right now too, I'm still using the Fig. 1 on top of my usual dark brown pencil. The Naughty n Nude eyeshadow trio is great. I've used it everyday since I got it and I'm finding it lasts forever. I'm so into no eyeliner and lashings of mascara at the minute too, can you tell?

Collection Eyeshadow Trios.

I don't know about you, but I still call Collection, Collection 2000. It's been nearly a year since  It's rebrand, yet my newly purchased concealer is still Collection 2000. I am confused. I picked up two of their eyeshadow trios today as a) I wanted something little for travelling and b) I've never used one of their eyeshadow before.

As you can see, the pay off isn't great on the swatches so I was a little big bummed out but gave them the benefit of the doubt as those swatches were without using the cream as a base. The cream base that doubles as a highlight is really nice, smooth with just enough colour pay off. The shadows are all really soft and creamy, the glitter doesn't chunk out of them either which is nice. There is a little bit fallout from the shadows but nothing major. I tried them on my eyes exactly how is says to  on the back of the packaging.

Wow, is all I can say. The pictures do not do these shadows justice. The colours are super bright, the base works amazing well. The shadows blended with ease and were a real pleasure  to work with. The stayed on my eyes all day and obligated a tiny bit. When it came to removing them I found they stuck really well and took a little bit of work. I get a super runny eye in the wind and found they didn't smudge even when I rubbed my eye. For £3.19 these trios are an absolute bargain. There were 8 different colours to choose from and I will definitely be going back to get some more!
