Baby Skin - I don't think so

Maybelline baby skin - instant pore eraser

Brilliant product or overhyped?

I recently jumped on the bandwagon of getting Maybelline's baby skin instant pore eraser. I was really looking forward to using this after hearing so many good things about this product, with it being compared to see many other "hyped" primers such as Benefits' POREfessional. I have never used a primer that claims to erase the appearance of pores before so was very excited.

I applied after cleansing toning and moisturising my face just before I was about to put my make-up on. I don't think it did actually made a difference. I certainly couldn't really tell it seemed to add a weird shine to my face. But I wanted to keep trying it because so many people had hyped the product so I assumed I wasn't using it correctly. Because it claimed to erase the appearance of pores instantly I started to begin to think I could see a difference. Maybe it did blur the appearance of pores mostly slightly around my nose area, but not a massive dramatic change. I think the worst thing was that when I use this product my make up won't stay on my face. I Noticed even after powdering my face that my foundation are sliding around my face. I don't know if this is because it is silicon based? Considering I have dry skin it is very rare that my skin will appear oily however this product made my skin look really oily. Definitely wouldn't buy again. However I think this would work differently on different people because of all the mixed reviews so maybe it is worth a try.

10 Years on

Just sat minding my own...well actually browsing through ASOS with the telly on in the background and I see my back surgeon from 10 years ago. BBC 2 Hospital series 3 a documentary on Nottingham QMC hospital around the time of a bed crisis. A young boy of 12 was about to undergo a spinal fusion by the best surgeon Micheal Grevitt (my doctor). The documentary was a brilliant insight into how the NHS is suffering. Staff overworked, patients distressed waiting for beds, treatment and then a lack of social care funding. An experience I didn't have 10 years ago. The program brought back some memories, least to say some painful memories - literally painful. August 2007 I went to QMC to have the biggest operation I'd ever had or probably will ever have. I make myself laugh to be honest because now at 26 I'd be shitting myself but not at 16 - bitch be fearless! Obvz I was nervous but I was optimistic almost unbeatable! My mum looked petrified...the woman is scared of h...

MAXFACTOR CREME PUFF BLUSHES

(30 Gorgeous Berries) When i saw the release of these blushers i was skeptical because of the Creme element - instantly thought STICKY. The MaxFactor Creme Puff Blusher are new to the drugstore in the UK ( Boots & Superdrug ). There are 6 shades in this range. When swatching i thought glitterin'hell - i'll look like a disco ball with these blushes! The lighter shades such as 5 Lovely Pink and 10 Nude Mauve may be more of a highlight for medium skin tones. I have seen that these blushes are a DUPE for Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blushers which are £28! In my eyes that makes these MaxFactor blushes a bargain at £8.99! Im not sure if some shades are online exclusives as i was looking for 20 Lavish Mauve , it was impossible to find! I bought mine in the shade 30 Gorgeous Berries . Gorgeous Berries is the darkest blusher in the range. It is what it says on the tin, its a berry shade (I ts a purpley/Pinky shade ). The formula is a powde...

July Favourites 2015

Not many make up favourites this month because I haven't been wearing much make up recently. New to me this month the Bourjois colour boost lip crayon in peach on the beach. A Tescos bargain find at £2!! It's a glossy finish which needs reapplying a few times. It feels like to lip balm but with a decent colour payoff. My Nars radiant creamy concealer has been my best friend this month! (Running out - cry!). I have been on antibiotics this month which have caused me to break out... Good old concealer! It's an oldie but a goodie. If you haven't heard of this product then it's really worth the money because it covers well, lasts all day and doesn't crease. Paired with concealer I have been wearing my Mac mineralise skin finish powder in medium plus. Which is also running out! Brilliant for a "no makeup makeup", great coverage without looking "powdery". The Maxfactor 2000 calorie mascara is...
