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.

RIMMEL, NYC, W7

I was feeling down today so I bought myself a few new things! I heard loads of good things about the Rimmel Stay Matte foundation and since foundations are my weak spot I just had to have it and it only cost me €5.99.

REAL TECHNIQUES MIRACLE COMPLEXION SPONGE

Ever since hearing about the beauty blender I have really wanted one because I had never used a sponge to apply my foundation. Obviously the beauty blender is super expensive and I could never bring myself to buy one especially since I have brushes that I can use.

PRODUCTS I REGRET BUYING

1. RIMMEL SCANDALEYES MASCARA

I bought this a couple of months ago because I needed a new mascara and it was a decent price. The first time I tried it I found it was difficult to apply so I thought I just needed to get used to it. After trying it multiple times and hoping I would get used to it I gave up. I find that this mascara makes my lashes clump together, it's really hard to get them to separate, the brush is too big and I just wish I hadn't wasted my money on it.

REVLON COLORSTAY FOUNDATION

The Revlon Colorstay liquid foundation used to be my number one holy grail foundation. I bought it years ago and I absolutely loved it. Back then I didn't have any foundation brushes or anything like that so I just applied it with my hands.

GARNIER BB CREAM

Ok so I got the Garnier BB Cream miracle skin perfecter for combination to oily skin. I have seen so many good reviews on it so I really wanted to try it myself and so far I really do like it.
