What's on my face updated


At the moment these are the products that I have been wearing everyday for my make up which has changed quite a bit since my last post What's on my Face Updated.

I have once again gone back to my Double Wear foundation which I apply with a beauty blender and I love the coverage this gives and it lasts all day. I keep this in place with the Rimmel Stay Matte. Before I was using Soap and Glory One Heck of  Blot but I was finding that it wasn't working so well  (my skin has become immune to it, noooo!) and so my skin was becoming oily throughout the day.

To give myself that glow and add some colour back into my skin I've been using Chanel Soleil Tan and Soap and Glory Solar Powder which as you can see the lid has broken off! Also I still use the NO.7 Blush in Coral Flush (this never changes and the sad part is that I can't find this on the Boots website any more in this shade :( ).

I use two mascaras which are the Max Factor False Lash effect which Iv'e always used but now I also like to use Maybelline Lash Sensational as that stuff just stays and creates length! 

I love Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow for brows and Bobbi Brown Eyeshadow in Wheat  to sweeo over my eyes, plus the Soap and Glory SuperCat Eyeliner which isn't in the photo because I forgot to include it, silly me!

For lips I line with MAC Soar and then MAC Velvet Teddy and then sometimes I apply Carmex over the top.

What do you wear everyday?

Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation





This is my favourite foundation I have ever used!! I bought this for £28.50 in John Lewis in their lightest shade 1C1 Shell. 

I know this foundation is popular with brides for its stay wear and coverage, one of the reasons I bought it. If its good enough for a bride on their wedding day, its good enough for me lol!

This has an SPF of 10 and is a liquid foundation. It contains no oil which is great for oily skin types like me. Its also has great lasting coverage which is one of the things I look for in foundation. I also love that this foundation doesnt cause me any breakouts. It lasts me all day and I dont have to touch it up. The shade is also a good match for my ghostly skin! 

On John Lewis the product description is 'Keeps skin looking fabulous, breathing comfortably through heat, humidity and activity without changing colour, fading or coming off on clothes. Natural matte finish and SPF10 sunscreen to protect skin.' 

I can say my skin does feel like it can breathe and it does last through humidity and activity (I experimented with this through exercise ha!) I do think I have seen this rub off one time on a white shirt though, not a lot but it did come off a smidge.

The packaging is nice and is a glass bottle with a golden lid. It has also lasted me for ages, I bought a second bottle because I thought I was getting low but I was wrong and over a month since I bought the second bottle I am still not on it!

One thing that I find fault with is that it doesnt have a pump!  I hate having to pour and then if too much comes out trying to save it all and put it back in!  

Can you recommend any good foundations with good coverage? I love trying new ones! Also going a bit off topic but anyone recommend any good self tanners?
