DRUGSTORE MUST HAVE MAKEUP BAG

Hello all,

So as makeup is becoming more and more popular it's also becoming more and more expensive, and those of us whose purse can't keep up with all the latest high-end makeup need a little help! So If you're like me and love a good bargain, but still have high standards and want to put only the best of the best on your face I have put together a must-have makeup bag/kit, thats 100% drugstore, 100% amazing quality and will hopefully help save you a few bob! 


First of all the actual makeup bag is from Zoella's beauty range, and I believe it was only around £8! It's a really good size and can fit an average sized pallet it as well as all your other little products. (it does look rather squashed in this picture but I promise it's just the angle of it) 



First of all we have primer. This one is the Nivea for men post shave balm, which is so highly raved about within the beauty community. This adds a really tacky base for your makeup, so it sticks on and lasts all day, as well as evening out your skin surface. 
This bad boy is around £5 in shops but superdrug often have it on sale for around £2, so a deffo bargain when in the sale!



Up next is foundation, my favourite drugstore is L'oreal True Match foundation. It has the most beautiful finish, which looks great set with a powder or just left on it's own (if you like a satin finish) It's also one of the best drugstore foundations I know of because of it's amazing colour range, they literally have a shade for ever skin tone. For me, being a vampire, it's one of the only drugstore brands to actually have a shade pale enough! 
This beauty retails for a price of £9.99, which I think is very good as it lasts for so long. 

For concealer, I always come back to the Collection, lasting perfection. it's the most full-coverage drugstore concealer ever, and can cover my teenage, acne prone skin flawlessly! Much like the foundation, it's one of the only drugstore brands to have anything pale enough for me. 
This little wand of happiness is £4.19, but again it often goes on sale for under £3.  


To keep all those liquids in place, The must-have drugstore powder is Rimmel London stay matte pressed powder. This is literally the goddess of drugstore powder. It's not cakey looking at all, makes your base last all day and also makes your skin so smooth your contour will glide on beautifully! As you can tell from the picture, mine is very well loved. (this is like my 100th pan of this stuff) This product also comes in a few shades, including transparent, so it can suit all skin tones. 
This must-haver is £3.99!



To get those chiseled cheekbones and gorgeous disco ball glow, my drugstore must have is the Makeup Revolution, Ultra contour pallet. It has every thing you'd ever need to get that sun-kissed, contoured, glowy face! It has matte and shimmery highlight shades, as well as three contour/bronzing shades which are all super pigmented, what more could you want?! I also think this is an amazing dupe for the Anastasia Beverly hills contour kit (as mentioned in my post all about it, *nudge nudge* go check it out here
This one way street to contour is £8! 



To add that lovely rosy flush back to your complexion, I adore this Bourjois little round pot blusher (yes that is it's actual name, so cute) This beauty comes in so many shades, i think mine is Rose D'or, but don't hold me to it. It gives a natural flush as well as coming with a super cute brush! 
This little pot of joy is £7.99, slightly more expensive for what it is but a good blush is hard to come by in the drugstore! 


For eyebrows, I have yet to find an actual product that I love to carve out my eyebrows, all the ones I tried either don't match or don't last, HOWEVER I do know of this little miracle worker for keeping your pre-tamed brows in place! This is the Rimmel London Brow this Way styling gel, which adds a bit of colour for a subtle look, but I like it for setting those pesky brows in place! It also comes in 3 different shades or a clear one, which is grand!
This ray of sunshine is only £2.99! 



Now onto eyes! I personally love eyeshadow, like I'm literally such an eyeshadow junkie! So For a pallet that is amazing for every single look imaginable is the Makeup revolution Iconic pro 1 pallet! It is so pigmented and the colours are all beautiful! Also the little brush is actually so amazing! Furthermore, this entire pallet is a dupe for the Lorac pro pallet! 
This goddess of a pallet is only £6.99! Which is amazing for the quality of this pallet! 


To further define your eyes, you may want to use an eyeliner! My personal drugstore fave is the Rimmel London Scandal eyes micro precision eyeliner. It's in a pen-style with a really thin tip so it's so easy to get a thin line across your eyes or to do a lovely wing! It's also very pigmented!
This product is about £5.50, but is often on offer!


To finish off the eyes, we all need a good mascara in our lives, and my drugstore must-haves are from Maybelline! For top lashes, I love the The Falsies, it adds so must volume and length to your lashes, as well as holding them up all day, and being really easy to get off. (I must be on my 7th tube of this by now!) For bottom lashes I love the great lash waterproof, as the brush is so tiny as well as lashing so long and not smudging at all!
These two tubes of goodness as £7.99 and £4.99, (one would do the same job I'm just high maintenance!)


Finally for lips, I love the KIKO Smart lipstick as it's so creamy and the colour range is amazing! They last all day as well as gliding on amazingly and being so pigmented! Mine is in the shade 01, if you are wondering!
These creamy lovelinesses, are only £3.90!

So I hope this post was helpful, and now you can go and grab yourself some bargains! Let me know your favourite drugstore products and any you think I need to check out on my instagram! (@Foreverfern_)

MARCH FAVES

Hello all,

March is over, so today I have my march faves! (stating the obvious as per) March was a pretty average month and I'm just very stressed because of the impending doom of exams looming over my head! 
I haven't got that many favourites thins month, as I've been busy working and revising, and from now on I'm pretty much under house arrest! So I hope you enjoy! 


Ted Baker eyeshadow brush

I spoke about this brush a couple of posts ago, but the obsession continues. I have been loving this brush for inner-corner and bow bone highlight because it's so fluffy and gets so much product on it and disperses the perfect amount for that glow.


Mac Pro-longwear concealer, Collection lasting perfection concealer.

I have been loving using these two concealers together at the moment. The Mac one is very full coverage and the collection one is also quite good coverage however the collection one is slightly lighter, so even though I'm a vampire it brightens my under eyes!
I currently like to wear no foundation, because it ends up just caking up (I go through this phase a lot around this time of year) So these two concealers provide the perfect amount of coverage.



Ted Baker liquid eyeliner

I have been obsessing with eyeliner at the moment, and this one is my current favourite. I really like just doing a thin line of eyeliner, so wing or anything just a really thin line as it adds more definition to my eye and makes my eyelashes look a little darker and longer!


Real Techniques - Duo fibre face brush

I love this brush for powder at the moment! It's so fluffy and doesn't apply too much product or make you look cakey! It's also really good for blending out your bronzer or blush if you apply too much!



Make Up Revolution - Iconic pro 1 pallet

Omg words cannot describe this pallet! It's so pigmented and I have been using this non-stop! It's so good for every day looks or you can do some really exciting or intricate looks with it as well, and believe it or not this beauty if only £7.99!! It's a dupe for the Lorac pro pallet and I honestly think it's one of the best pallets I've ever used! 
Full in-depth review coming soon!



Revlon super lustrous lipgloss - Super natural

I bought this lipgloss as a super easy every day lip product to just put on when I wanted something a little extra, and recently I've fallen in love again! It's so natural and makes your lips look really plump and gorgeous! Also it looks so pretty over any lipstick!


Iphone 6S

(I am in no way showing off, just explaining my new love)
So i finally bought myself a new phone! I had my iphone 4S for about 2 years and it was slowly on it's way out (i mean it shouldn't take 30 for a phone to unlock after putting the password in aha) So I finally saved up enough for a new one and I'm obsessed!
I decided on the gold because it looks so pretty and luxurious. I also love how I can get the snapchat filters (FINALLY) and the 3D touch thing is so awesome!
Just to disclaim quickly, I'm not showing off at all, I paid for the whole thing myself and I pay half the contract a month.

So thankyou for reading, I hope you enjoyed! Let me know your faves from last month! I hope you have a great April!

Thanks again
Fern :)

HOW TO WASH YOUR MAKEUP BRUSHES


Hello all,
So my last post was all about the 411 with brushes, so I deemed it only necessary to talk about keeping those brushes clean and healthy. 
For me, washing brushes is essential but some may think it's a waste of time and they just can't be bothered! Which I totally understand but your brushes should be treated like children, and who wants their children to be dirty and carrying bacteria?! 
Washing your brushes at least once a fortnight, (a deep clean) especially brushes that you use for foundation as the bacteria will build up faster on them and transfer to your face when you use them, which can cause breakouts and all those things you don't want your skin like. However washing them also gets all the product off them so your blending can be perf and helps to maintain your brushes.

There are a few different ways you can wash your brushes, but my personal favourite is a good old deep clean. (the kind you do every couple of weeks) 


First of all the soap. I like to use baby shampoo because it's gentler than an ordinary shampoo and conditioner and it's cheaper! It makes your brushes smell amazing and feel so soft. It's also really cleansing and gets all the product out of your brushes. 



To really get deep into my brushes I use this Makeup revolution Pro Cleanse Brush Tool which makes it so much easier to really get your brushes clean because the texture means it gets in all parts of the bristles. (This ones only £4.99 and it's amazing) It just fits on your fingers and voila! Super easy to use. 


First things first - I put a good load of baby shampoo in a little bowl, as it stops me from getting too much on the brushes and gets just the right amount. Also it saves the product. I also fill a cup with water to dip the brushes into to dampen them. 

The hardest things in my opinion to wash are sponges. I first start off by wetting it like you usually would to use it and then dip it into the shampoo, making sure that it's fully coated.

Then squeeze the soap into the sponge until you can tell it's all in the sponge and the foundation will start to come out as you squeeze it. 

To get more out, I like to rub it on the back of the tool as its smooth and won't damage the surface of the sponge. This also gets the soap all in the sponge. Once the sponge surface looks clean and the water runs clear when you squeeze the sponge, run it under the water again to get all the soap out. 

The sponge may look slightly deformed but don't worry, it's just how the soap leaves it. It will go back to shape when it's dry. 

Brushes
For all brushes, the most important thing to remember is not to get water in the metal part of the brush, as shown in the picture. You don't want to get anything in the top or bottom of this part as thats where the glue is holding the bristles together and in shape, meaning if water gets in them, the glue will disintegrate and your brush will fall apart - so be very careful!

example using a real techniques buffing brush
When washing your brushes, you want to first of all damped the brush, by running it under lukewarm water and then dipping it into the soap. 


Then you want to swirl the brush on the cleansing tool so the soap bubbles up. You want to keep doing this and adding more soap until the water and bubbles run clear. A good way to check that your brush is fully clean is to get a little bit of soap on it, and if it bubbles up quickly then it's clean! 


You then want to squeeze the water out the brush to make it dry faster and fully ensure that all he soap is out. 


Finally you want to stand your brush at an angle so all the water drains off it. I like to put it near the window as well so it dries faster. You could also lye it off the edge of a counter like a lot of people do but i just prefer this way as I find it helps to keep the shape better. 

Another great way to wash your brushes is to use your hands! They're the best tools we were blessed with so why not use them?! Just do exactly the same thing as you would with a tool except swirl the brush around on your hand.
This is great if you don't have a tool or anything and it's super easy. It works just as good as a tool because your hand is naturally textured, and the gaps between your fingers are great for smaller brushes and across for a change of texture. However it is a bit harder to wash small detail brushes (e.g angled brow brushes, concealer and eyeliner brushes.)

Finally eyes. The top of the tool is especially good for eyes and detailed  brushes as the little bobbles are so close together it gets right in the hard to get to parts of the brushes. I especially love this for my little concealer brushes as it gets all the product off.
Also when washing smaller brushes, you want to make sure you get the sides as the product tends to stick there more.


For these smaller brushes, I think it's easier to do a few at a time. They all clean just as well it just saves time, soap and effort.

I hope this post was helpful and that these tips and tricks help you to keep your brushes clean and healthy! If you have any brush washing tips please let me know in the comments or any social media!

Thanks you for reading!

GUIDE TO BASIC MAKEUP BRUSHES

Hello all,

Today I thought I'd talk about brushes. I'm a firm believe that if you've got a good set of brushes your makeup will always be good, no matter how bad the quality of the makeup. A decent set of brushes will mean that you get the most out of you products. When I first started playing with makeup (throwback to blue eyeshadow and magazine lipsticks) I had no idea what brushes even did and thought that the lovely sponge applicator that came with the bright eyeshadows was the height of makeup quality.
So after many hours spent on youtube and various beauty blogs, I now have a pretty good idea of what brushes should be staples in your set and what they're used for.

You'll have to excuse the cleanliness of my brushes, they need washing. I recommend washing your brushes once every week, especially foundation and concealer to get rid of all the gross bactirea on them!

right: flat top face brush (amazon) left: real techniques buffing brush

The first brushes are buffing/blending brushes. These are best used for blending foundation onto the skin. These are especially good compared to a flat foundation brush because they are fatter topped and have more surface area, meaning they will blend the product out more thoroughly and avoid any harsh lines. (and we don't want a foundation line yikes!)
These two are my favourite because they're synthetic and sooo soft and do the job so well.

real techniques, miracle complexion sponge
Next up is my absolute fave! (it's not actually a brush but lets roll with it) This is a blending sponge, not one of those cosmetic wedges or the cheap ones it's a proper blending sponge, like the super fancy beady blender. There's nothing better in my opinion to blend out your foundation and concealer with. It leaves a super flawless and weightless finish. These sponges work by wetting them and bouncing them onto the skin to blend your foundation in, super easy! And this specific one is super inexpensive (like £5.99 and they last for ages)  The flat edge is perfect for applying all over your face and the pointed end is perfect for getting under the eyes and in all those nooks and crannies! - 110% life for this 'brush'

Ted Baker powder brush
Next up is a powder brush. I use this everyday to set my foundation and concealer and to get a nice matte finish. This brush is perfect for this as it's so big and so little and easy to hold you can swipe it around your face easily and be done in like 5 seconds.

real techniques: duo fibre contuor brush
Another face brush is blush! I think synthetic brushes are best for blush because they stop it from looking patchy and blend easier. This one is especially good because it's the perfect size to fit right on your cheeks and cheekbones to blend it back, meaning you can't apply too much, so you don't look like you've got a sweat on. (unless you like that look then you do you boo.)

Eco tools: tapered blush brush
Bronzer, my fave. This brush is perfect for bronzing and contouring, because it's the perfect size as it's not too big or small. The hairs go into like a rounded point, so they're all different length meaning you can get right in the hollows of your cheekbones. I tend to go crazy with my contour as well, so this brush is amazing as it's a medium density so it will blend as you apply the product, so you wont have muddy streaks on your face! 
seventeen cheeks brush
Finally for face is highlight. I use this brush for highlight because it's so fluffy and can apply lots (y'all know I wanna be a disco ball) as well as blend it at the same time so it's not streaky, and applies the product beautifully. Also it's quite thin so it's like a fatter fan brush, so it does the same job but applies more, so perfect for us glow-lovin people!


Morphe G17, sigma E25, ted baker lid 
So onto eyes. I would use these 3 brushes for every eye look - from simple to hard core smokey these will blend your shadows out gorgeously.
The first is a big blending brush, so you can blend a colour seamlessly into your crease and blend out any dark shadows. This Morphe one is also so soft and has a rounded tapered style, so it fits perfects in the crease for an overall bleand, which is perfect for every eye shape. In my opinion, this is THE MOST IMPORTANT brush ever, because unblended eyeshadow is a crime!
Next is a more precise blending brush, for deepening the crease or applying a shade to the outer colour. This brush is so gorgeous and the rounded end makes it's blending super powers amazing.
Finally, the all over lid. This brush is fluffy so it wont apply too much shadow to look streaky, but enough to cover the lid evenly. Also this brush is lovely to use for highlight as it's not too big or small.


Last but not least, eyebrows. This brush is amazing as it's duel-ended with a brush and spoolie.  If you use a powder or gel type of product for your eyebrows, this brush is perfect! The brush side is angled, so you can sculpt your brows out sooo strong it's unreal. It's great for this as it's so soft and applies the perfect amount of product, so you have perfectly shaded brows!
On the other end is the spoolie! Super important for your brows as you want them to be brushed out, and not this can also blend some of the product!

Overall these brushes manage to get me through every makeup look ever (or there abouts) Some of these brushes are high end, but good brushes mean good face days. However there are some amazing drugstore brushes such as real-techniques, which are affordable and work so well!
I hope you enjoyed this post and it helped you in some way, shape or form! Let me know on my instagram!

FEBRUARY FAVES

Hello all,

So, it's been such a busy month for me (as you can tell by the lack of posts) as I've been doing a course, and I'm officially now a qualified level 1 swimming teacher! which is super exciting and I'm really excited to use my new skills! I haven't got that many new things this month but the makeup products that I have purchased are amazing! Also been loving some random stuff as well so letf be getting straight into it! I also got a new photo-taking-area! It's this cupboard top that I got from IKEA with a glass surface on, and look how cute my lil vase-lamp thing is!

L'oreal - Infallible sculpt - contour light/medium

So L'oreal have just come out with all these new 'sculpt' products ranging from foundation to blush to brows etc and I saw Emily Canham (on youtube) use this product and I was like holy jesus I need it! It's a cream to powder formula so the bronzer is so easy to blend and look amazing. There's literally nothing else like this is the drugstore so I think it's amazing! Honestly, I don't really like the highlight shade because it took all my foundation underneath off, but the contour colour is amazing!
This was on offer in boots for £6.99 rather than £9.99 which i think is so good, so you should deffo go get one of these if you love a gorgeous contour! Get it here

KIKO EYE PENCIL

I have been looking for an affordable tan coloured eyeliner for so long because even the drugstore ones are quite expensive! (£4 for an eyeliner is expensive in my books) But this one from KIKO was in the sale for 70% off, so it ended up being like £2 which I think is really good! It's also so pigmented and lasts on the waterline all day!

KIKO SMOOTH TEMPTATION LIP STICK - 01 nude

Again, I was in Kiko and in the sale I found this gorgeous lipstick! (was like £2.50) Kiko lipsticks are such good quality and go on so smoothly, also the colour range is amazing! I also love the packaging as its so handy to just put in your bag or pocket! The colour is so lovely and I deffo wanna buy some more of these! Get it here!

VASELINE - SUGAR COATED EDITION 

As you know, I love vaseline for moisturising my lips! And because of the sudden weather change (it's so cold it's ridiculous) my lips have been hella dry and chapped it's gross! So this limited edition of vaseline has little bits of sugar in it so it tastes amazing! It has a light pink tone to it but not enough to add any colour (like the rosy one) just makes them look really plump and nice! This beauty is only £2.99 at boots as well!
Get it here!!
Victoria's secret - sheer love body spray 

I got this for christmas and have only just started using it properly (gone past the point of having effort to perfume on!) and it's so easy to just spray and coat yourself in! I also love the packaging! The smell of this one is also very light, so you don't have a really strong smell stuck to you all day, but something lighter and very feminine.

Heroes reborn
So I couldn't get a picture of this one, as it's on TV at the moment, but if you read my last faves then you'll know I'm obsessed with heroes! So this is the follow on series that takes place 10 years after the final episode. AND OMG IT'S SO GOOD! If you love the original Heroes you need to watch this! It's on 5STAR on Tuesday's at 9pm! It has some of the original cast in and some new ones as well, so deffo get watching!

Glee volume 1 CD

So I have no pic of this CD because it was in the car when I was taking the pics and the car wasn't at home so I couldn't get it! But this CD is so good. Obviously if you love glee you need it, but the talent is so good! I recommend glee so much it's one of the best series ever, and also all the CD's are amazing, but the first is my fave as there's so many signature songs on it and you can sing along to them so easily! (a key aspect in a CD in my opinion!) Get it here!


Thankyou so much for reading I hope you enjoyed! Let me know your faves from this month! Please follow my blog and my instagram! @Foreverfern_

JANUARY FAVES 2016

Hello all,

It's that time of month again! (Geez not that time, ew) Monthly faves time! This month I have loads of favourites as I didn't do one in December and I have acquired a lot more makeup bits and other things from christmas which I have literally been obsessed with for the last couple of months.
Last month was a weird month for me as I had a few issues to overcome, however this month should hopefully be better as I have a lot of exciting things to look forward to!
Also I apologise if some of the pictures aren't the greatest quality, my camera was playing up big time and the quality seems to have decreased when uploading them!

Benefit - Dallas
OMG! So I bought this bronzer with a voucher I got for christmas (£23.50 from Debenhams) and I'm literally obsessed. I decided to get this blushy bronzer over the oh-so famous 'hoola' because it's a much more flattering and suitable shade for my skin tone (however I still want to try hoola!) In addition, the packaging is amazing and i kid you not the powder is so pigmented and the little brush it comes with is so cute and makes a really nice sharp contour!
I also love this product because it's so versatile. For example I can use it as a bronzer, or it makes a really beautiful eyeshadow for in the crease! An overall amazing product and one of my top must-haves this month!


Pan Flute necklace
If you know me, then you know I'm obsessed with Once upon a time, and also Peter pan is one of my all time favourite disney characters (because who doesn't love a boy in tights) So for christmas I was lucky enough to receive this lovely necklace. (after a lot of hinting to bae I must add)
I have been wearing this none stop! The charm is the perfect size as it's not too big or small so it sits perfectly on whatever you've got on. Also i really like the black string, as it doesn't nip your skin like a chain would.

HEROES
OMG I ACTUALLY CANNOT! I am obsessed. no more words needed.
This is one of the best series I have ever watched. To say that it's 10 years old,  the quality of the acting and the special effects are amazing! Not to mention it's obsessive, the story line is so addictive and throughout the episodes you're pulled in to see what happens to each character, as you learn more about what they can do. Also I've become emotionally attached to all the characters, making it even more obsessive!
Believe it or not, the entire series only cost me £19.99 from HMV, which is ridiculously good as it costs around £7 for each season! (Also the box makes me happy because I can tell who's gonna be a main character and who is gonna be gone)


Urban Decay Naked 2 
With my christmas money and vouchers I finally purchased one of Urban Decay's naked pallets! (2 to be exact) and I'm so obsessed with it! It's so pigmented and the colours are beautiful! I did a whole post dedicated to this beauty, check it out here!

Nivea men - post shave balm
(Omg so sorry for the awful quality of this photo it kills me) This product is so highly raved about throughout the makeup industry on youtube and stuff, as started off by The lovely Nikkitutorials (and if Nikki says it's amazing then it must be) So i had to check it out and I was not disappointed! The balm becomes tacky when you rub it into your skin as it contains glycerin, meaning it will keep hold of your makeup all day!
I've used this literally everyday since I bought it, and it's super affordable as well, so it's perfect!
(if you do purchase, try and get it when it's on offer, as it's like £5.50 otherwise and the offers often make it half price)

Becca - Jaclyn Hill 'Champagne pop!' 
HOLY GLOWING GOODNESS! This highlight is literally everyhtiiiinng! If you even makeup you will know what this product is, because queen jaclyn and Becca cosmetics have done every wanna be disco ball proud! The colour is gorgeous, it's a beautiful golden champagne colour and it's soooo pigmented and adds the most amazing glow! And I don't even mind that I paid over £30 for this product, because you can just tell from holding the beautiful packaging (which looks like a UFO) that it's of a very high standard.

Ted baker - Blush and Highlight 
For Christmas I received the gorgeous ted baker beauty box thing that they sell at boots, and it contained so many gorgeous products with such amazing packaging. Recently I've been obsessed with blush, and these two are my current faves! the darker one is perfect for this time of year as it's so natural whereas the lighter one is perfect for a really subtle blushed look.
I also love the highlight in this pallet because it's a really pretty natural pink champagne, and it's so glowy and natural.
Also the packaging is a gorgeous rose-gold and the mirror bit is so cool as it twist around (it reminds me of a flip phone #throwback) and it's such a big mirror it's perfect for travel.

MAC - Matte Bronzer
I bought this bronzer after christmas in 2014, and I've hardly used it as it's not very pigmented, but this past month I've come to love it again! It's the perfect cool tone bronze for contouring and it's really build-able, because it's not crazy pigmented. So what I thought was a bad thing is actually a really good bronzer!

Colouring books
A massive crazy at the moment are adult colouring books, and I'm one of those people following the craze. For christmas I received a load of these amazing colouring books. They are sooo relaxing and I actually find them so fun! My favourite out of the picture is the New York one, as the pictures are so pretty and really easy to colour, also I'm obsessed with New York, so it's all the better!

Pro cosmetics - curve brush
Yet again, I got on the wagon with this crazy, however I did it much cheaper. This brush is actually amazing tho, it glides the foundation or concealer on so smoothly and keeps such a high coverage it's amazing. The going rate for these brushes is around £40, however this one was only dead cheap off ebay! (as told by my sister who got me it for christmas)

Ted Baker powder brush
This lovely rose gold brush was again from the ted baker beauty box from boots. I love using this for powder, as it's so big and gets a good amount of powder all over the face fast, and without looking cakey. I also love it because it's a cute little kabuki, so it's easy to store and hold.

So that's all of my favourites for the month on January! I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know what your Faves from last month were on my new instagram account! (@ForeverFern_) Please give it a follow because I have like 9 followers! I post pictures of makeup and anything I love or just anything really! Please give it a follow!

Thanks again!
