My every day make-up routine(for school)

I personally choose not to wear much make-up to school,mainly due to the fact I don't have much time and I'm not getting up any earlier than I already have to!

After I've used my moisturiser I put the Rimmel wake me up concealer under my eyes- I find this really brightenings under  my eyes and covers up any dark circles, it also makes me look a lot more awake( which i definitely need before school!).A quick tip I find very useful is to take this concealer right into your tear duct- this makes you look even more awake and makes your eyes look bigger.It's definitely more of a brightening concealer as it has a little shimmer in it,meaning it's not very good at covering blemishes as it could make them even more noticeable . I blend this in with the Real techniques setting brush. I find this brush is a great size for under your eyes.

The next thing I do is take the Collection lasting perfection concealer and put it on any blemishes and redness. This concealer has a very thick consistency meaning it has quite high coverage- this can also lead to it becoming cakey if you apply to much. I wouldn't use this under my eyes but it's great at covering any blemishes.On the whole it is a very good concealer and I understand why so many people use and love it (it's also very inexpensive, which is always a bonus!) I blend this in with the real techniques buffing brush which I find does a great job!

To set my concealer and make my face matte and not shiny I use the Rimmel stay matte powder- I find This helps keep my make-up in place,but since I have quite dry skin I only use a little bit and tend not to use it at all over the colder seasons(as this is when my skin is most dry). I apply This using the Real techniques multi- task brush .

To make me look even more awake I use a mascara- the one I'm using at the miniute is the maybelline lash sensational. I find this really lengthens and separates your lashes.

To finish this look off I apply either a lip balm or Tanya Burr's lip gloss in the colour "picnic in the park" which is a lovely pink shade.

I find this is a really nice subtle look for school and it doesn't take long at all so it's perfect.

Thanks for reading! 

P.s the next few posts (or one at least) will be Easter themed!🐣

Evening skin care routine!

Hey everyone 

I thought I'd do a post on evening skin care because it is something that I have just recently started doing and attempting to stick to(when I can be bothered).

The first thing I do is wash my face with the simple kind to skin moisturizing face wash.

This lathers really well so it really feels like you are cleaning your skin. It also acts as a good make up remover!

Next I use the body shop tea tree skin clearing toner

I'm not sure what this is supposed to do put it has tea tree in (as it says in the name)which is supposed to be good for spots and also removes excess oil from your skin. Also it takes off any excess make up you missed whilst you were washing your face.

I have quite dry skin so I usually put a moisturizer on before I go to bed too. I like to use the soap and glory righteous butter.

This is a great moisturizer because it kind of melts into your skin and isn't really creamy (if you get what I mean) it also makes your skin really soft but not oily like I've found in a lot of other moisturizers  This cream also smells really clean and fresh.

Comment your top skin care product in the comments below so, i can maybe try some of them!
