The Beauty Scenario Tag

1. You have to get rid of all of your foundations and you can only keep one high end and one drugstore, which do you keep?

For drugstore I would definitely have to choose the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation, I have loved this foundation for about a year and a half and I reach for it constantly, it has a gorgeous dewy, radiant finish and the lasting power is great for a high street foundation.

For high end I would have to choose Mac Face and Body foundation, I bought this last summer and I fell in love. It's the perfect low coverage foundation that looks perfect for both every day and evening make up, the consistency makes it easy to blend and the finish is lovely.

2. You go for an interview and the lady interviewing you has lipstick on her teeth. Do you approach the subject or ignore it completely?

I would definitely ignore it completely! I'm rubbish at confrontation and would hate to embarrass her because if I did she probably wouldn't want to face me again, and therefore wouldn't hire me.

3. You're not feeling yourself and need a pick me up.

Which lipstick do you put on to make yourself feel beautiful?

I would go for the Bella Pierre Cosmetics lipstick in Ruby, it is probably my favourite red lipstick in my whole collection, and who doesn't feel instantly glam when wearing a red lip?

It's a gorgeous colour and lasts all night long without any touch ups. 

4. You go back in time for a day to your teenage years, how would you do your hair and make up differently?

I'm gonna say that I go back to my 13-16 year old self rather than my later teens as I'm only 22.

In terms of hair in my early teens I would definitely not try to rock the slicked back pony tail with the two strands of hair! Or the scrunched with mousse curly hair! Ew!

 In terms of make up I barely wore any, when I was 14 I stopped wearing foundation for a whole year and started to moisturise every single day so I can't remember any really bad make up days!

5. You ask your hairdresser for a shoulder length Pixie Lott hait cut, but they hear you wrong and give you a pixi cut. 

Do you:

A) Smile, say thank you, leave and call your mom hysterical

B) Cry in the chair and things get awkward

C) Complain to the manager and demand a refund

Eek! Kind of a bit of all three, except for the demanding a refund part. I would probably awkwardly smile and politely tell them that it wasn't what I asked for and then go home and cry and probably invest in extensions!

6. Your friend surprises you with a 4 day city break and you have one hour to pack. Which 'do it all' palette do you pack in your make up bag?

I would probably go for my Laura Mercier Palette for Eyes, Cheeks and Lips. 

It's such a wearable compact palate, and other than foundation, eyeliner and mascara I would happily only take this with me. The lip colour is gorgeous, the 4 eyeshadow shades can create both a day time and an evening look and the blushes are beautiful! What more could I need!?

7. Your house has been robbed, don't worry everyone is safe, but your beauty stash has been raided. What's the product you really hope is safe?

This question was really difficult! As I love everything, however, only a few products have sentimental value, the Naked 2 palette being one of them. It's something I've wanted for so long but have never really plucked up the courage to purchase it for myself, however, my mom got it for me for my 22nd birthday and I am obsessed. The colours are gorgeous, and so long lasting and pigmented, I am in love.

8. Your friend borrows your make up and returns it in awful condition. 

Do you:

A) Just pretend you haven't noticed

B) Ask them to repurchase it

C) Secretly do the same to something of theirs

It would definitely depend on the extent of the damage and how much I liked the product, I would never ask them to repurchase it or do the same to theirs, but if the damage was really bad and it was an expensive or valuable product I would probably politely tell mention it. 

Thanks so much for reading guys, I hope you're all having a great Sunday, feel free to do this Tag too!

January Favourites

Sanctuary Spa |  2 Day Moisture Shower Oil

I bought this last month whilst browsing the aisles of Boots and fell in love. It's such a luxury feeling product, it smells great and it feels great! I have been obsessed with it this month!

Laura Mercier  | Palette for Eyes, Cheeks & Lips

Another Christmas present from my boyfriend, that I have been using and loving everyday since I got it. The eyeshadows, lipgloss and blushes are all perfect for everyday use and the small packaging makes it great for travel.

Maybelline Colour Drama | Minimalist

I've had this for a while now, but this month I've found myself reaching for it more than ever. It's the perfect matte nude colour, that looks amazing on. It's the perfect 'my lips but better' colour that goes with every kind of make up look.

Charles Worthington | Texturising Spray

I've recently repurchased this after my previous can ran out, and have rekindled my love for it. In the winter I tend to straighten my hair a lot more and it has a tendency to fall flat quite often, this product is truly great if you are having a flat hair day, it gives you a great boost and just adds much more volume to your hair.

Rimmel | Matte BB Cream

I've recently done a post all about why I love this and it's definitely been on my face for the majority of this month. It's a great product for evening out your skin tone and just adding a light base for your make up.

The Body Shop | Vitamin C Skin Boost

Again, I've done a recent post about why I love this and have used it daily since I got it and my skin has been loving it. Definitely going to be something I'll continue to repurchase.

Marc Jacobs | Daisy Dream

I love all of Marc Jacobs' fragrances, but this one has been my most recent love. I'd definitely say it's much more of a spring/summer fragrance, but I've been using it constantly nonetheless. It's the perfect amount of girly without being too sweet or floral and I am obsessed with it. Also, look at that packaging!

What have you been loving this month?

November Favourites!

Sleek Blusher - Pixie Pink 

The rosier the cheeks the better this time of year, I'm a huge fan of minimal make up with a flush of colour on the cheeks and a berry lip. Perfect. 

Laura Mercier Hand Cream - Almond and Coconut Milk 

The nicest scented hand cream ever. Without a doubt. And perfect in the cold weather.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain - Crush 

This has been on my lips pretty much through the length of Autumn.

Necklace - Peacocks 

I've been wearing a lot of black lately, so statement necklaces have been my 'go to' to jazz up my outfits. 

Revlon Lip Butter - Berry Smoothie 

The perfect everyday lip. Looks even better on pale skin. 

Yankee Candles - Cinnamon Stick 

Of course, nothing says Christmas quite like a cinnamon scented candle. 

Victoria's Secret Body Spray - Red Plum & Fresia 

I've worn this so much the past month, fruity, girly and kinda wintery at the same time. 

Tresemme Oil Elixir 

My hairs new best friend.

Scandaleyes Thick and Thin Liner - Black Noir 

My eyes' new best friend.

 Blistex Intensive Moisturizer 

Dry lips be gone. This is getting me through the colder months with ease.

OPI - Casino Royale

This kind of colour has been on my nails constantly, along with Essie - Foot Loose. Love. 

Laura Mercier Hand Cream

 I was recently shopping with my sister and we popped into Liberty's on Bond Street for a look, and came across the Laura Mercier counter, about 20 minutes later and lots of sniffing later my sister purchased a set of hand creams and gave this to me. 

Firstly, let me just say, everything from there smells absolutely incredible! The scent is so strong people often mistake it for perfume and ask me what I'm wearing! Secondly, this hand cream is a dream. I've been through my fair share of hand creams but I have never fell in love quite like this... Not only is it an excellent cream; non greasy, absorbs really fast, but the scent is so strong and lasts for hours! I will definitely be purchasing more of these in the not so distant future! And the vanilla body cream is top of my Christmas list!  

Have you tried Laura Mercier' hand creams yet?
