Benefit wanna? Lipstick ♥

Okay, I know I said this would be up last night,  but I'm rubbish.
Here it is though!

This lipstick is such a lovely pinky/natural colour, which is really good for those days where you want to wear something but nothing too dramatic.

The formula of the lipstick is super nice and moisturising and doesn't cling to any dry patches or dry your lips out.
The only downside I would say about this lipstick is that because it is so moisturising, it doesn't have the greatest lasting power, about 2-3 hours, without eating or drinking, but because of the texture, it is so easy to reapply.

I definitely recommend trying this lipstick, even as just an everyday lipstick.

Barry M Lipstick review

I don't really know why, but whenever it's come to nude lipsticks, I've never really been that fussed, I've liked them, and think they look really nice on there people, I've just never really had much interest in them on myself, I think it may be because I'm paranoid i'll get the 'concealer lip' look, which I can't rock at all, or that it'll wash me out, so I've usually just stuck with wither bold lips, gloss, or nothing.

Super simple, natural make up ☮✌

Just a little quick one today, super simple, easy natural face, With barley there make up.


I used a small amount of Benefits Porefessional over my nose to cover up some of my pores. Here
I then used Benefits some kinda gorgeous in light, which i just put a few splodges on my face using the sponge provided, and then  blended in with my Real Techniques buffing brush. Here and Here
I used collections concealer in shade 2 light under my eyes. Here
I didn't use any blush or highlighter as I was keeping it all very natural.
I curled my lashes using my Vintage Company eyelash curler. Here
Using a few coats of L'Oreals telescopic mascara to add length to my lashes. Here
I lined my upper lash line with my Estee Lauder stay in place pencil liner in coffee. Here
And to finish it off, I used the powder side of my Benefit Browzings in dark to define and fill in my brows. Here

Face of the day | Subtle, affordable, brown smokey eye. ♥

I really like doing posts like these, but I hardly ever change up my make up. So I'm going to force my self to wear different styles of make, get out of my comfort circle and do some more varied face of the day posts.


Today is a pretty simple one, as I'm sure you can guess from the title, it's a very wearable, subtle, warm brown smokey eye.
