How Much Is Your Face Worth | TAG

I've seen this TAG floating around for quite awhile, and I love reading a lot of them and found them really interesting as you get to see how much people spend on their make-up and what it is they use on a daily basis. It kind of doubles up as a daily make-up post.

Base

No7 Airbrush Away Primer Full Size £19.50 \\ Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum £10.99 \\ Seventeen Phwoarr Paint £5.49 \\ Soap and Glory One Heck Of A Blot Powder £12

= £47.98

Eyes

Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer Full Size £15 \\ Urban Decay Naked Palette £37 Shades Virgin, Naked and Hustle \\ YSL Babydoll Mascara £21 \\ Lord and Berry Brow Pencil £10 \\ Soap and Glory Smoulder Kohl £5

= £88

Cheeks

Illamasqua Blush Lover £18 \\ NARS Laguna Bronzer £27

= £45

Lips

Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balm £9.50 \\ Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain Romantic £7.99

= £17.49

Total = 198.47

Thats a bit crazy... Almost £200 worth of make-up goes on my face every day! All the products I've put down are the ones I've been using basically every single day recently, its a routine that I've been really enjoying and will continue to do.

Theres a couple of girls that I'd love to see do this - Zoe, RenaCharlotte and Ella, if you lovely ladies haven't done this then I've love to see what you write!

Lord & Berry - Foundation

For awhile now I've been thinking of buying myself a new foundation, but had the issue of not knowing which one to get. So like any normal human being I bought a foundation with absolutely no idea what it was like colour wise.
I am so glad I did though! When it arrived I was really happy, a little surprised since I thought the bottle was a little small. It's a tiny little bottle, but it is 50ml - more than my other foundations. So you get quite a lot of product for the £19.99 you pay. I have worn this almost everyday that I have slapped make-up on my face because I just love it that much!
This is a really good coverage foundation - I would say its a build-able medium coverage. It doesn't look cakey, in fact it looks really really natural on the skin.
I apply this with my Real Techniques buffing brush, squeeze a little on my face and blend away. This controls oil really well, and I don't think it would cling to any dry bits either - so pretty much a brilliant foundation for all skin types.
Have you tried any Lord & Berry products?

Little ASOS make-up haul


So many hauls recently, can I call this a haul since there are only three items? Anyway, I made a little impulse buy, a couple of days before my spending ban started.


 I've been looking for a new mascara for quite awhile, and this one has a similar brush to the one I currently use - but its a fair bit cheaper. The Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam mascara has a big brush and I can't wait to use it.


I never used to really care about how my eye brows looked, so I never really did much to them. I have recently though been trying to take better care of them, and make them look a bit nicer. I got the Lord and Berry eyebrow pencil, since it was a decent price and it looked like it could be quite good. I got the colour Brunette since it looked closest to my colour, although it looks a little light now that I have it. 


I've went from being a girl who only ever had one foundation to a girl that has quite a few different ones. The newest addition to the family is this Lord and berry one, I got this in the lightest shade possible - since I am fairly pale. It looks to be a pretty good match to my skin colour. I was a little surprised at the size of the bottle when it arrived - it seems really small - especially since it costs £19. Oops, oh well. It better be some foundation.

Do you own any of these items, what do you think of them?
