Hello again my lovelies,
Just a handful of items I've treated myself to recently! I'm now on a spending ban as far as beauty bits are concerned as my birthday is approaching and I need to leave things on my wishlist for gift ideas!
The Real Techniques Core Collection - I actually bought this solely for the buffing brush, but love all of them! I use them for foundation, concealer and blusher and as you can see I was so eager to start using them I didn't take the time to photograph them before tearing the packaging open. I bought mine from victoriahealth and they arrived super quickly, AND they're a full pound cheaper than in Boots, haha!
Topshop Lash Catcher mascara - I am quite impressed with this formula, it leaves my lashes super long but doesn't hold much of a curl, so I combine it with a blob of Benefit They're Real. This is only the second item from Topshop make-up that I own, so I'm thinking of expanding my collection now!
Benefit Bella Bamba blusher - such an impulse purchase! I don't even need a new blusher, just swatched this one for fun really and somehow ended up buying it. It smells gorgeous though and is quite pigmented, giving you a perfect flushed look. I cannot for the life of me apply it with the brush that accompanied it as it gives me clown cheeks...so I use the Real Techniques one instead to build it up carefully. A very light hand is needed with this product as you can see by the swatches on my cheek.
So there we have my thoughts on my recent buys! Do you own any of these? What are your thoughts?
xoxo

That blush looks so lovely on you! I bought the Real Techniques core collection last year and since then I have started using them as my everyday brushes. The buffing brush is my favourite though I have to say and I use it ALOT, so would like another one but I don't think you can buy it on its own, will cheekily check on eBay though ;) xxx
ReplyDeleteThat blush is so pretty, it gives a lovely rosy, earthy flush. The Real Techniques collection is fantastic, but I have to admit I bought mine primarily for the buffing brush as well :)
