What's in my april make-up bag

Had another sought out of my make-up today and pulled out some things that I haven't used in a while. 


I'm using the same make-up bag which is my fleur de force one as it fits so much in. 


Starting of with eyeshadow and I've got a new addition to my palette collection. This is the Stila  eyes are the window palette and I'm really loving this palette as all the shades are so wearable. I will be doing a full review of this on here soon so keep an eye for that. 


Fleur de force quad in lunar rose I've been using so much recently if you saw my favourites post yesterday. I really like this palette, the shades are very similar to the Stila one but this is great if you're on the go. 


My last palette is the urban decay naked basics which is something that I purchased quite a while ago and used it so much. However since buying the naked 2 palette I sort of forgot I had it. 



I really like cream shadows as they are so quite and easy to apply, so that's why I always like to have at least one in my make-up bag at one time. This is the H&M colour essence in the shade earth angel which is a caramel shade with shimmer running through it. 


For mascara's I've gone back to some of my favourites. The rimmel accelerator endless I used to gone on and on about. However since discovering so many amazing mascara's I sort of forgot about it, so I'm going to see if it still as amazing as I once thought it was. 


The other mascara that is my all time favourite is the maybelline lash sensational. This is such a hyped about product online and it's so worth it. I have the waterproof version and this just builds volume and the most important thing it holds it as well. 


I've also put in the revlon volume and length mascara. I've talked so much about the red one which is the ultimate all in one as I have been using it so much. I thought I would give this one a go as well as I haven't used it half as much. 


I will also be using the l'oreal volume million lashes so couture. This is one of those mascara's that I always forget about and I've only had it maybe 6 months! However this month I'm going to give it another go and will let you know what I think. 


seventeen 3 way wow highlighter, this is a liquid highlighter that you can either use on top or under your foundation. This gives you an amazing subtle glow that doesn't make you look like a disco ball!


I have two foundation both from rimmel. The first one is the lasting finish 25hr foundation, this is a fairly new foundation to me and it's quite a high coverage foundation. I have done a whole review of this foundation so go check it out if you want to know more. 


I like to keep a primer in my bag as well for those days when I really need my foundation to last all day. At the moment I'm using the rimmel fix and perfect primer which I've used for years. 



For blush I've put in the soap and glory peach party blush which a great colour for spring.

 I also got my H&M blush in  pale pink which is a really nice colour for everyday.
 I've put in my maybelline master sculpt. However I want to try some more highstreet contour kits so let me know if you've got any recommendations.

I have 3 concealer's in my bag two of them are brightening concealers which are the barry M light reflector concealer and the L'oreal Lumi Magique which has a little more coverage. 


I have two powder's that do slightly different things. The maybelline Fit me Powder is very good at setting your make-up and help's it stay on. 


Freedom pro-highlight in ambient is more of glowy finish powder. However it isn't to much for a face powder. 


I have my usual two eyeliner's in my bag which is the maybelline linerefiner and the rimmel scandaleyes in nude, which I actually need a new as this one is getting dry. 





Finally for lips I've got 8 product's that give me a good spectrum of options. The first one is Rimmel lasting finish by kate in the shade 35


L'oreal colour riche in Doutzen's nude which is a nice nude but does have quite a lot of blue in it. 

 
I've got two of the Fleur de Force lip glosses in the shades starry, starry night which is a very deep pink and little which is a nice everyday pink. 


I have one matte lipstick which is the revlon matte balm in elusive. 


It wouldn't be the same without having one of my clarins instant lip perfector in the of the new shade which is 07. 



Nyx butter gloss in apple strudel- this looks really neon but it's actually almost clear.  


Finally I have one of my MAC lipsticks in the shade syrup which is quite a plum/ pink colour.

Always remember where we came from

Over the past couple of months I feel that my body has let me down in many ways. It made me ill out of blue which meant I had to build myself up again which I wasn't planning to do. However after doing this I've know realised what's important, after having this blog for nearly 6 years and posting about beauty and my story it's important to remember why I do what I do. I was at a family event yesterday, and after speaking to one of my relatives who actually reads this blog, I suddenly realised that I've kind of lost touch with why I do, what I do. My story is unique and I am very lucky to have a physical condition but still be able to do what I love. That's partly why I set this up in the first place, is to show that even through you have something that could potentially hold you back that doesn't mean that it should. Having cerebral palsy and epilepsy has had it challenges for sure, however it also shown me the strength I have. I think in the day and age...

top 5 nude lips

Top 5 nude/ neutral lips  My first one is probably the most expensive of my five and it's the Clarins instant lip perfector. This product is kind of light a natural gloss which a slight colour. The scent of this product is just amazing it smells like vanilla and I just love it!! Like I said before it's the most expensive one at £18.00. My next one is from maybelline and if you saw my post earlier in the week then you may have already seen this but this is probably the most bold colour of the five but still very wearable. This is the maybelline colour sensational in petal pink. I really like this colour because it's not quite matte but it so nearly is. My third one is from rimmel and it's called nude pink. Shade name wise I think that this is quite disappointing as a nude pink I think of being a your lips but better, however this lipstick has quite a orangery undertone. The finish of this lipstick is quite glittery and glossy so ...

Soap and glory mini gift set's Every year soap and glory come out with some amazing christmas that you definitely get your money's worth. This is actually last year bag but I have put in the bag the product's that You get in the set for this year. I personally love these set's because they are so easy to travel with and because they are so small you can take everything you need with you. The set this year is called bright and bubbly and it comes in a box, which personally I prefer the bag as you can also used for travelling. The set retails for £10 which I think is amazing value as you get 4 products and a shower flower thing (what are they called?). Within the set is the clean on me shower cream/gel which is really moisturising and it has the classic soap and glory scent.  Glad hair day which is their shampoo, I haven't actually tried this but it's the perfect size to take away with you.
