Holiday Make Up

Tuesday, 16 July 2013

After a day catching some sun, and lathering myself in sun lotion the last thing I want to do is pack on the make up at night time. So holiday make up, for me, has to be light and easy.
I use to have bad habit of over packing make up, taking every brush and every shadow "just in case". I've learnt the error of my ways and know that on holiday I usually will not spend half as much time getting ready, but still want to look picture perfect.
I have been loving the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum and think it will be perfect on holiday, its super light but gives really great coverage. I would be lost without my Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Powder for that summer time glow. Concealer, is essential no matter what country you are in, and Mac Studio Finish Concealer is the perfect travel size but gives great coverage under the eyes, and where need be. 3 products and the face is done, I'm ruthless. 
MUA seem to have been a go to for me this summer. The eyeliners are in great colours, and are really highly pigmented. Not to mention they are only £1 each. They also last for ever on your eyes, even the water line. The blushes, are creamy and work in well to the skin so I'll be taking my Bittersweet blush for the perfect pink cheeks (and hopefully not in a sunburn way!) I'll be cheating on my Urban Decay Naked Palette for the MUA undressed eye shadow palette. I have good reason for this though. One, its so much more travel friendly and as I am trying to pack efficiently this won. Two, its a complete dupe for the Urban Decay Naked Palette so...really its a win win.
Now, I purchased two new products that I can't wait to try out one of which are the Bourjois Colour Boosts. I bought two, Fuchsia Libre(right) and Red Sunrise (left). I have only had these a matter of days, but already they have won me over. The shades are perfect for summer and they feel great on your lips.
  
Another purchase I have heard every one and their blogger rave about are the Maybelline Colour Tattoo's. I picked up the shades On and On Bronze and Pink Gold. Both are great for summer as they are shimmery and workable colours. Bronze if you are wanting a more of a smokey look and the Pink Gold looks perfect for a fresh, shimmery evening look. I can not wait to try these and out and report back!
Very excited for holidays now all the packing is done, and hopefully I will not be as bogged down carrying things I will never wear/use!
I'm away to tan, relax and some major girlie time with my sister.
