Products I Can't Live Without | Bronzers

I think I started using bronzer when I was about 15...ish...

Probably ending up with a look that was not becoming, especially teamed with my favourite blue lipstick (it was the fashion then ok...)

In recent years, as contouring has become more and more popular I use mine for various things.

Contouring, Bronzing and even eyeshadow!

Bourjois Chocolate Bronzer

I'm pretty sure this is a staple in most make up lovers make up bags, not just mine. This is the perfect shade for majority of skin tones and looks like a chocolate bar. 

It's matte and slightly smells of chocolate which is obviously a massive plus point!

It's perfect for bronzing when you don't want shimmer, and just as good for contouring too.

I have taken this with me to use as a triple threat before to save space:

• Bronzer
• Contour
• Eyeshadow

To use as eyeshadow I usually just use my finger and then blend with a fluffy brush into the crease. To be honest, I am guilty of using loads of my bronzers for this when I'm short of time or when I'm away from home. 

It retails for £7.99.

No.7 Match Made Bronzer

This was a present from my Auntie last Christmas and I love it!

Again I use this as a Triple Threat. 

It comes with a handy mirror too, which is great when you are out and about. I generally use this more for contouring than bronzing. 

It is also a matte bronzer and is in the shade Maple.

It retails for £12.50

Younique Beachfront Bronzer

This bronzer is great having a matte side as well as a shimmer side so you are able to mix and match as and when you want. 

This is in the shade Sunset, and as you can see, I need to repurchase rather rapidly, especially with summer approaching.

I love to use the matte side to contour and then the shimmer on top of my cheek bones to give that summer shimmery look. 

It retails for £25.

Orange Smoky Eye

That's right, an orange smokey eye. You heard it here first!

I know this is probably not true, but a girl can dream right? 

As I told you in my previous blog I received one of Younique's amazing eyeshadow palette's for Christmas just gone.

(I really want to say Christmas this year...even though I know It's actually last year...)

I am a little bit in love with this palette. The shades are insane and are super pigmented.

I decided to put a look together at the weekend with my favourite colour being the main focus. It's called Vintage and is a gorgeous orangey pinky colour.

Another thing I love about Younique's colours is that they change depending on skin tone, which I think is great as it means everyone gets a different shade of awesome.

For this look I have taken Vintage all over my lid, and have then used Suspicious in the crease and outer corner and then blended it with the fluffiest fluffy brush I own.

I have then taken Vindictive and put a tiny bit of this in the inner corner of my eye.

To finish off the look I have used my Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeliner in Noir and then Younique's Epic Lash Mascara (Another firm favourite if you are in the market for a new mascara!) with some Boots eyelashes to finish the look off!

I hope you like it!

Much Love,

What I'm loving this week.

So I thought I'd share a few beauty and non beauty favourites of mine from the last couple of weeks.

First up is the egg house that my Dad and step mum brought myself and my flatmate for Christmas after me saying I liked theirs. It's looks super cute on our side. 

Also the heart shaped white ramekins they brought us too. They also have matching ones! 

I'm also loving my Urban fudge dry shampoo and hairspray. These smell amazing!!! And really work well. Definately will repurchase once I've run out! 

Next up are my boots from Primark. I brought these a few months back and I love them! They are so easy to wear with anything and everything! 

I love the gold hardware and actually prefer the worn in look they have now. 

I'm really loving scarves at the moment as the weather has got chillier. 

A couple of my favourites at the moment are this one from primark, I love the colour and it's super snuggly! 

Also this blue and green pashmina type which I got from H&M years ago and recently rediscovered it. Here's me wearing it today. 

These a just a few things that I'm loving at the moment. 

What are you loving? 

Much Love,
