Real Techniques- Stippling Brush

This is probably the tenthmillion review done on one of these brushes but I really needed to share my love for it with everyone else! When I first read about these brushes on everyone else's blogs I was unsure as to why it was as amazing as everyone else said it was but then I bought it and used it for myself and now I know. Originally it was the Buffing Brush I was interested in, but that only came as part of the Core Collection, and so I decided to give this one a go as its purpose is for foundation and that was what I was in desperate need of. This brush feels so soft on the face and doesn't leave my face with red marks after blending in my foundation, not only that but it doesn't leave behind any bristles stuck to my face! It blends in my foundation like no other brush I have used and doesn't leave me with any of those nasty "foundation lines" that some girls suffer from! I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a new foundation brush and at only £11.99 it doesn't break the bank!

Does anyone else love this as much as me?

Benefit Goodies

The other week I decided my eyebrows had grown far too bushy for my liking and so I headed down to my nearest Benefit BrowBar at Debenhams. I only intended on getting them waxed but there was an offer on for a wax and tint for £16.50 instead of £18.50 and so of course I agreed to it (who could resist?!) It was actually the best decision I've made in ages! My eyebrows are naturally really light in comparison to my hair and so having them tinted has made such a difference. Obviously I will still use an eyebrow pencil to enhance them more but as they are darker now I could go without the pencil on my lazy days! The waxing was also amazing and extremely pain free compared to when I got them threaded. My new eyebrow shape is amazing and really enhances my face, I have never been able to pluck my eyebrows to match and so this is such a relief to know I am walking around with matching eyebrows #girlproblems (haha!)

So whilst there the very lovely Megan (my miracle eyebrow saver) kindly gave me a lot of wonderful Benefit goodies for me to try out! My most favourite goodie was a sample of the new Hello Flawless foundation, which I used when doing my make-up for a night out. It has to be one of the best foundations I have used in a long time! Naturally I have quite oily skin and so it's difficult for me to find a foundation that suits my skin as well as being quite matte and fairly long lasting, however this ticks all the boxes! This foundation is perfect for me as I've never been a girl who likes to look caked in make-up but I do like my skin to look matte, flawless and have a natural glow. I already have a fairly big foundation collection but as soon as one of them runs out I will definitely be purchasing the full sized bottle of this!

Has anyone else tried this foundation out?

My happy little valentine

I have literally wanted these earrings for so long (before me and my boyfriend were even official), and he remembered after all this time and bought me them for valentines day! I am a very very lucky girl, these are the best gift anyone has ever given me. So thoughtful as well, needless to say I was very loved up on valentines day!

I hope you all had a lovely day too :)
