My Makeup/Beauty Storage

So I have been slacking with this blog so I thought id share my storage ideas as I really like my set up so I hope you like the post. :D

So this is my desk where my makeup distracts me!

This is the top of a shoe box and I keep all my skin care, nail varnish brushes and general beauty related apparel.

In my three stack Muji drawers, the first drawer is my face products; primers concealers and foundation.

The second is eyeliners and my mascara.

The third is all lip products.

In the silver stack the first drawer is pallets.

The second is all eyeshadow and bases.

Third is face powders; blush, beauty powders, bronzers.

Then there is primers and other misc items.

The fourth is all misc. I have eyelashes and back ups and moisturisers.

In my chest of drawers I keep all my lush stuff.

I keep all the lush in bags.

Then in my wardrobe I keep my hair care and other beauty products in shoeboxes.

So I hope this was a little helpful!

Thanks Pxx

I Should Coco - €6.07

Really nice creamy coconut scent. Light yet rich.

Sandstone - €6.44

Really gorgeous lemon scent. Very sophisticated scent not like toilet cleaner!

Angel's Deight - FREE!!

I really like this scent, it's a really light sweet scent and it lathers really well!

Hue - Free (B2M)

Great everyday nude for me, I have tried Barry m 101 and Gosh's Darling (which I have recently purchased) And they are very concealer like, this is a great orangey pink. It works really well for my very pigmented lips.

Print e/s - €11.45

My New Skincare Routine

I think I have found some real gems.

Aapri Scrub Cream - Slightly harsh grains but exfoliates well I use this twice a week.

Clean & Clear Cream Wash - I use this throughout the week one or twice a day. Nice fresh clean feeling.

Clinique Clarifying Lotion - Good exfoliant, brightens complexion. Very alcohol based and can sting your eyes. I use twice a day.

Garnier 2 in 1 Make up dissolver - Great make up remover, can be a bit messy, leaves skin insanely soft.

L'Occitane Ultra Rich Face Cream - Really moisturising, thick, night cream, doesn't sink in quickly. Great for dry skin.

The body shop seaweed mattifying day cream - really nice light day cream, keeps skin matt good for underneath foundation.

I really recommend these products as they work for my dry skin.

Hope you found this helpful.

My Skin.

So recently my skin just isn't the way I want it. I have very dry skin and when I was younger I had pimples and never took propler care of them that has left me with uneven skin on my forhead and scaring. I know that Egyptian Magic works for some people and the only other scar treatment I know is Bio oil, but the word oil freaks me out!

I have recently have tried out the Veet hair removal strips for your face as I hate plucking the skin in between my brows. Well I didn't heat the strips right or something so I basically ripped some skin off and it has just made it more uneven and broken and red so it really looks great :(

I use at the moment a peach scrub (not st.ives) and I use Clean and Clear deep cleaning cream for the night and I use my tea tree toner and L'occitaine ultra rich face cream (which I love!)

I hate that I have dry skin as my foundation and concealer looks bad when I put on foundation.

I am thinking of trying Clinique clarifying lotion but I don't know wether to get it for very dry to dry or dry combination skin. And I also wanted to try the makeup remover for eyes lashes and lips. I may in time get the dramatically different moisturiser.

But for now I just have to take better care of my skin :/

I hope I can

FOTD 09-02-10

I will have a tutorial soon!

Photography Update

I was on Tumblr tonight and I saw something disgraceful! Girls who use fashion photographs to assist them of killing themselves. I knew this happened but I saw the scale of this tonight, with countless likes on skeletal models starving themselves.

I think this has just been a hugh wake up call and I will not support the fashion photography world, as glamorous and gorgeous as it is.

I will have no part in assisting a person kill their bodies.

And if there is a way, many years down the road I will change things if nothing has been done.

Ok I know I said I wasn't going to but...

I got stuff! :)

Magic Mushroom Bubble bar

Holy crap this smells great!! I love it so much!!

Charity pot sample

I really like this it's really moisturising but it's not sticky! It has a nice light scent, It's great and I will be buying this when I run out of all the other moisturisers I have :p

MAC Antiqued eyeshadow,

I really like this colour i love coppers I think they work really well with my blue eyes :)

MAC Studio Fix powder,

I really like this I wanted a powder foundation that I didn't have to think about.

I use it sparingly so I think it will last long.

I think it makes my skin look great!!

Looks normal right?....Wrong :P

They didn't glue it down, this has never happened to me before. It's not damaged so I just put some bluetac on the base :)

I love everything I got and it's FTC approved :)

Wow!! iheatcosmetics giveaway!

What a great giveaway!!

Enter Sarah's contest here!!!

Update.

Right so little update: Sorry for the lack of posts!! Im really busy.

So I have done 8/10 tests and I am going away after these tests I can't buy anything but I will be taking photos.

Im not buying anything until my birthday in June. I want to buy a graphics tablet and an iMac (way in the future) but I want to save money for summer and college, I have a fiver in the bank at the moment so I want that to change.

So the reason for this post is because I will be reviewing instead of showing you what I get.

Im also going to try to do more eye looks and FOTD's as I really like them.

So the first thing Im going to review is the Illamasqua nail varnish.

:) Px

Mini haul and little rant :D

So I bought 'Magic Mushroom' bubble bar and this smells amazing! I adore Yummy Yummy Yummy and Strawberry Feels Forever so this was a must buy. I think I will have to get more.

I also bought Glee Volume 1 which is nice I really like Glee and I think I will be buying the Vol.2.

And I was going to get a back to MAC and i brought in an empty Brush Cleaner, Blush, Lipstick, 2 Lipglass and an empty eyelash container.

And I wanted Hue. I was at the till and the woman goes we dont take eyelash containers i wanted to hit her. WTF mac? Like will you just make a list of stuff that you can and cant take in! Maybe they do but im just sick of the whole place! I really am sick of the people and the products.

So yeah and I have tests to do on monday and Im just not in the mood :(

So hopefully I will be in a better mood soon

Bye. Px
