No7 Foundation Match Made Service Experience

Welcome to my blog,

I know they've been doing this service for a while now and I'm probably one of the last people to use this service. 

I have had my skin matched by this service before telling me I was a 'cool ivory' but I felt like I knew this was 100% the wrong shade for me even though that's what it said. 

So I went to a different store and asked a different lady to match me up using the service where they use a device that takes pictures of your cheek to determine your perfect shade in there foundation which they now do to match you  up with the perfect lipstick as well). This time it said I was shade 'calico' which is the very lightest shade that they do. She so kindly tried out the foundation all over my face and pretty much did my makeup using the No7 products which I was not expecting at all.  She did the whole base of my face using the foundation, blusher and powder to set it (I was already wearing mascara and eyeliner) and I know to get your makeup done professionally using there products already costs quite a bit to have it done so I felt very lucky and very thankful she was doing it for free she then gave me a sample of my shade I was in to test out at home.

While the other lady just matched my skin up and told me what shade I was (cool ivory experience) and that was it. 

I definitely intend on going back to pick up some of the foundation from the store she did my makeup in. Overall I feel very satisfied with my second trip trying out this service than I did the first time.

P.S Love This Facial Cleansing Pad Review

Welcome to my blog,

I picked this up and thought it would be a good idea to try this out with the face mask I have been doing to help make it easier to take it off instead of using a flannel to see if it was any easier to use as the face mask I use hardens and dries on to my skin which feels like a nightmare and takes me ages to get off. 

This was £1.


I actually found this not to work at all or help my skin it did help my face mask come off easier but not as well as I hoped.

I found this better to use to clean my brushes with as it's flexible has a bit at the back to put your finger through to hold it and is easy to use to clean my brushes.

I suggest if you are going to buy this, buy it to clean your makeup brushes with as it's cheap and a good idea if you need something to help clean them.

Dove Fine Silk Moisturising Cream Review

Welcome to my blog,

 I have recently been looking for products to fake tan myself correctly. I knew not to use a moisturiser with oil in as it would ruin the fake tan and act as a barrier to stop the tan from applying to the skin correctly. I saw this in poundland and thought it'd be perfect because of the brand.


It's a very creamy kind of texture when you rub it in to your skin but eventually sinks in to the skin leaving it feel soft with a silky type finish. It doesn't smell to bad I can't quite describe the smell other than a normal moisturiser smell.

I don't regret buying this. Some items I buy from pound land are a hit or miss when it comes to these types of products. After trying this out I would buy another dove product from pounding even though  I know it might not always work as well as this product.

Makeup I Want

Welcome to my blog,

For a while now I have been eyeing up some makeup and accessories I really want to try.

I want to buy the Porefessional from benefit I've seen so many people rave about and use this but I've always put off getting this because it's soo expensive but now I've got a job I'm definitely ready to go and get this and try it out without feeling like its a waste of money.

I want a real techniques buffing brush I recently picked up a stippling brush thinking it would do the same job with my foundation but with it just being smaller but I don't think it does (unless I'm using it wrong which knowing me I probably am) so I will try out what the proper brush everyone on the YouTube community seems to be using.

The Sexy Mother Pucker lip plump that benefit do I picked up something not long ago thinking it would do the same thing as it had the word plump in it and it didn't and there's no way I'm doing the 'Kylie Jenner Challenge' I'd rather try out the lip plump even though it costs a bit.

I would like to purchase a high end brand for foundation maybe No.7, benefit cosmetics, Mac etc...

So this is all on my shopping list as must haves.

If you have used any of the products I have mentioned please leave a comment and tell me how well they worked out for you and give me some tips on my stippling brush so I can find out if I'm actually using it wrong.
