I'm Doing An All-Weeker...

NOTD Posts! :)    No, I'm not staying up for the whole week without an inch of sleep, especially when it's Mock Exam Week for me! I'm going to instead, be doing a Post everyday of my nails that I'm supporting at that instant, I thought It'd be nice to do some pretty nails. So here are mine for today...



 So, I used GOSH Nail Polish in '551 - Sweet Peach' and a Nyx Girls Polish in '154 - Roots' I love the NYX colour and I am still trying to love the Sweet Peach, but it's not special enough!


Hope you liked my nails for today! 
I'm trying to think of what to have tomorrow! 

I love you

Doo-Wops & Hooligans

Some of you will recognise this title as Bruno Mars' new album and well I'm in love with (him&) the album! It's inspired me to blog about my favourites of the moment...

Makeup


Foundation: Maybelline SuperStay 24hr - I've been properly loving this because of the fact that it doesn't oxidise or go cakey on me, half way through the day. It doesn't stay it's whole 24hr claim on me, but it stays long enough for me to deal with.


Powder: MAC Studio Fix Powder - This has become a firm favourite of mine after buying it a few weeks ago, but I've been using it so much that well It's become everything to me! It hasn't completely taken the place of the MSFN but I have been preferring it as it gives a fuller coverage and I've found that after putting this on top of my foundation, less concealer is needed. However, I've used quite a bit of it...




Blusher: Most of you probably know by now, that this is my favourite makeup item to buy and use so my choice atm has been either, Sleek's Rose Gold Blush as it's getting a bit brighter outside and this is perfect! Also, I've been loving MAC's Blush in Springsheen and Elf's Blush in Tickled Pink & Candid Coral. 


Lipstick: Obviously, I've been loving my go-to, which is 17 Mirror Shine Lipstick in Belle. However, My other favourites have been MAC Creme Cup, MAC See Sheer, MUA in Shade


Eyeshadow: Urban Decay Naked Palette. Enough said!


Skincare


Cleanser: Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish and No7 Hot Cloth Cleanser. I love both of these, maybe loving the Liz Earle a bit more, probably because it was more expensive (Not going to lie!) 


Spot Treatment: Simple Spotless Skincare Spot Treatment. This is really good and a definite upgrade from my last spot treatment. I think it's kind of nice, but hasn't got rid of all my spots so I wouldn't say that this is a definite amazement.


Moisturiser: Clean and Clear Dual Action Moisturiser, well well well, this is actually the best thing that my skin has ever come across! I love it so much and it's really helped to reduce my spots! 


Song: Bruno Mars - Marry You, Adele - Someone Like You, Rihanna - S&M






I love you 


Jess,

Liquid Liner: Making Baby Steps!

So up above is my first attempt at liquid eyeliner! I've used it before, but failed every time and just taken it off! It's so frustrating when I watch videos of people and they can do it really easily, because I really struggle. 
Anyhow, here are some close-up piccies of my first attempt, I know it's not amazing, but come on- it is my first go, hehe! 




yes, i do look kind of strange in both of these pictures! But with that fact aside, this is kind of what it looked like. I couldn't show you that well because my camera was on charge and I had to use my macbook. However, I did like the polished look that it gave my makeup and even with quite a natural face of 'slap' going on, it still made my makeup look "done". 


This is the beauty that helped me produce my liner. Nyx's Super Fat Eye Marker. It has a felt tip nib and is obviously quite large. However, it is pretty dense and therefore, gives a easy application for you to apply the liner and get a nice crisp line. It was very black and helped me to produce a nice line. But..  A few hours later, I ended up with liner near my eyebrows because it had transferred to my crease and this isn't good enough. So next time, I'm going to try and use my MAC Blacktrack Fluidline to create a nice crisp line, that stays and doesn't transfer!   


Thank you for reading, 
If you've got any tips on liquid liner then let me know as I need all the help I can get!

I love you, 

Jess
