Today's FOTD

Good afternoon beauties!

I feel like I've been posting a lot recently about products, which was never the inital point of this blog. It's fun trying new stuff that's out there and I am always on the hunt for HG products but mostly my passion is for actually doing make-up, trying new looks, new colours etc.

So, as someone who usually favours black eyeliner and red lip stain, I thought I'd try something new for me today... full on natural eye colour, pale lip, rosy cheeks. Very girlie!
This was semi-inspired by Get Lippie's post on powder foundations; I love my mineral foundations, but haven't been using them recently as I've yet to found a kabuki that doesn't irritate my newly repaired skin following last year's 'acnegate'. I figured 1 day wouldn't do any harm though so here we are! (Louise if you're reading this, hopefully I don't look too fembot-ish!!)

I look very pleased with myself, but really I'm just in a good mood! The sun is shining and I'm nipping out soon to meet my girlies to discuss what I want to do on my Hen Do!


I used Bare Minerals powder foundation in 'Fairly Light' which I think is a ridiculous name as it suggests that it's not quite the lightest shde, which it actually is. I used Maybelline Mineral blush and my new FrontCover Rainbow Eyes box. Beaute WLC in 'Trace' is on the lips and the mascara is Bad Gal Lash from Benefit.
