2015 Makeup Favourites

2015 was a great year of makeup for me, I’ve done a bit more experimenting this year when it comes to makeup and I have tried a lot of new things. This year I have broken my favourites down into categories because it was getting too difficult to just pick a handful of products. It was quite hard to think back to the start of 2015, but I have just tried to pick things that I have been constantly picking up through the year. So I hope you enjoy!

Christmas Party MakeUp Guide

As we all know, one of the best and also most stressful parts of December is the amount of parties that we need to get ready for. Our nails, tan and makeup needs to be in tip top condition at all times during the month, which isn’t easy when we don’t have any money and spend all our free time in Christmas pyjamas eating mince pies. My birthday is slap bang in the middle of December so I have an added party that I need to get ready for. So I decided to compilea little Christmas Party makeup guide to give you a helping hand.

September 15 Birchbox

So I finally gave in and signed up to Birchbox, after a full year of receiving Glossybox I thought I would sink my teeth in to a different Beauty box. After shipping, both boxes work out around the same price, so I assumed they would be extremely similar.

Glossybox Top 10

It has been a year since I first signed up to Glossybox, in that time I have received 12 boxes, and 2 limited edition boxes. I have found some amazing products, some great brands and some products that I have repurchased time and time again. I didn’t realise it was my 12^th box until I received a card with my August box and a Glossybox notebook to say thanks! So I thought I would do my top 10 products that I have received over the last year, this was much harder than I thought as there was so many others that I wanted to include.

The Battle of the Primers

I have chosen 3 very different primers to compare for the battle of the primers. A budget, a standard and a luxury primer.

Festival Makeup Tips

My brother and his wife didn’t manage to get Glasto tickets this year, so instead they decided to host a Glasto BBQ. This is basically a regularBBQ, but everyone wears typical festival clothes (wellies of course) and there was a tent and UV face paints in the garden. Now festival makeup has to be light, sweat resistant and glowey (glitter is optional but definitely recommended). Try to keep makeup light purely because it will be less noticeable when it starts to run, smudge or fade, due to excessive wine and of course jumping around wildly waving your arms in the air like you just don’t care.
