friend or faux?

thought i would get wintery and treat myself to a new lippy- getting a bit sick of wearing MYTH.

instead, i bought FAUX. its got a kind of purply/browny tint to it, yet still keeping it pinky. and its not too strong, i wanted a lippy that was a kind of lip colour. i also bought the jumper i have on in the VERY BLURRED picture-- £29 from mango. very snug fit and not itchy at all- especially compared to the signature red knit in topshop that was very itchy when i tried it on and seemed a bit out of shape. this was a great find. ill get a picture up soon of the whole thing.

13.50 for faux. great for blondes and brunettes.

another great winter must have for your FACE is :

a MAC creme blush- my fave is POSEY.

- rub a little onto the upper side of your hand before applying, this will stop you going too mad with pinkness on your cheeks
- put on top of your foundation and bronzer
- a great tip is to put the blusher not straight onto the HIGHEST part of your cheekbone, instead put it on the lowest part (if you suck your cheeks in your will find this), if you smooth it onto the indents when your face is in this funny position, it will give your a lot more definition to your cheeks and make your cheekbones look higher. this espcially works with more of the browny tones of blusher, like MAC PRISM.
- for that extra winter touch, pat a little bit of the creme blusher onto your nose- it will give you even more of a snowy glow.

powder blush PRISM- both 17.00

and to finish off: (well this goes on first, but whatever)

BENEFIT MOON BEAM illuminating highlighter- a.k.a the best little thing in my make-up bag

- put a little dab onto the tops of your cheeks and follow round and up towards the side of your eyebrow

- you can also put it onto the bone bit underneath the ends of your eyebrows

- it gives a real highlight to your cheekbones and eyes- catwalk style

- i use the honey shade, but they also do a more pinkyy pearly shade for the ladies that like their make-up and shine more rosy.

18.50- i know i say this to everything i blog about, but this is definitely worth the buy
