BATISTE XXL VOLUME DRY SHAMPOO

I went into boots recently looking for Dry Shampoo for brown hair but of course, they didn't have any. While looking for an alternative, I came across this xxl volume batiste dry shampoo and since I was going out that same night, volume sounded good to me so I decided to try it.

L'OREAL TRUE MATCH FOUNDATION

When I tried this foundation a couple of months ago I remember not really liking it. I spotted it again in my drawer the other day so I decided to give it a second chance and I am soooo happy I did.

ESSENCE LIPSTICKS

Lately I have been a bit obsessed with buying and trying cheaper makeup. I have recently fallen in love with Essence makeup so I decided to pick up three lipsticks and give them a go. I got these in the Essence stand in Penny's.

01 Coral Calling, 02 All You Need is Red, 07 Natural Beauty

MAKE-UP OF THE DAY

I created this look using only Essence makeup products, apart from my eyebrows. I used Essence eyeshadows in the shades (party all night, get ready, pop eye, dance all night). I also used essence extreme crazy volume mascara and essence liquid ink waterproof eyeliner :)

This is my first makeup of the day post but I want to start doing them regularly so bare with me, I haven't got the angles right for taking pictures of it yet. Thanks for reading!

ORGANISING MY MAKEUP

I have been super unhappy with my makeup organisation for ages now so yesterday I decided I was going to fix it up. I took an old set of drawers that we had in our shed and made dividers for inside each drawer. To make these dividers I measured the width, length and depth of one drawer and cut cardboard to these measurements. This way of making them is super easy but can take some time especially if you use thick cardboard like I did which is hard to cut through. 

ESSENCE PURCHASES

I went into Penny's and couldn't resist buying some Essence products. I am a bit obsessed with the brand lately so I picked up these few things. 

I got three lipsticks in the colours 02-All You Need is Red, 01-Coral Calling and 07-Natural Beauty. I also got two blushes in the shades 60-lifes a cherry and 30-secret it-girl. I already have one of these blushes and I absolutely love it. They are very very pigmented and the colours are lovely so I chose these two. 

I also got a lip liner in the shade 12-wish me a rose because I don't own any and I heard these ones are good. I then got a back up of my favourite mascara at the moment, the I love extreme crazy volume mascara. This mascara is super and I will always repurchase it! Thanks for reading :)

WET N' WILD

After finding a Wet n' Wild stand in the pharmacy in the Supervalu behind my college, I quickly went back to buy some things. Some of the things I got include these three lipsticks.

BLOG MAKEOVER

I just gave my blog a makeover and I think I love it. After being off this for so long I found that it looked kind of boring and crappy. But now, I changed it up and I think it looks great, although knowing me, in a few months I'll probably be fed up of this one and change it again, oh well! :)

BACK TO BLOGGING!

It's actually been a whole six weeks since I have been on here, I have wanted to come on so many times but haven't been able to since my laptop charger broke.

I have been without a laptop for over a month now. I ordered a new charger and that arrived today so I am hoping to start doing regular posts on here again, especially since I have bought quite a few new things since my last post! Thanks for reading!

RIMMEL STAY MATTE FOUNDATION

I love love LOVE this foundation! I only bought it yesterday but I wore it for the whole day today. I applied it at 7:30am and now it is 18:40pm and I am still impressed with it. It lasted me a good nine hours which was really surprising to me. I got a tiny bit shiny within the last two hours but it wasn't bad at all. I tried going over it with a powder to see if that worked and it did to an extent but I wouldn't wear it any longer than 10 hours. Which is perfect for me because it lasted me from when I left for college to when I got home.
