First impression | L'oreal true match foundation.

 

I recently ran out of my fave foundation (Mac studio fix fluid) and I couldn't bare to shell out another £21.50 for another one. This is where boots come in, they were having an offer of all L'Oreal foundations being priced at £15 for 2 (here) which is a saving of £5 as they're £9.99 without the offer. Being a 'beauty blogger' I knew that I couldn't pass up such a good offer on such a much loved foundation.
 
This foundation offers 22 different shades which come in ; Cool, Warm and Neutral which for a drugstore foundation is an amazing shade range. The range starts at one and ends at 8 and each number has a cool, neutral and warm shade which means even paler people with a yellow undertone or darker skinned people with a neutral undertone can find their perfect match! This foundation offers a medium coverage but it's easily build able to full coverage, it gives a dewy finish and has small little flecks of shimmer to help brighten up your face. This foundation is best suited for normal/combo/dry skinned people as people with oily skin may not want a dewy finish as it sometimes can look a little shiny. I can easily get at least 12 hours of wear from this foundation and I've finally found a foundation that doesn't transfer, brilliant.

An apology | sorry for being away!

Hello my lovelies! I just wanted to make this post as an apology that I haven't been blogging/tweeting/instagramming as much as I would like. I've been feeling really ill and crap this past week so I've been bundled in bed finishing college work. College is another reason I haven't been active much, college is coming to an end forever (sad face) in June so I'm currently rushing around trying to get everything done on time! This is causing me stress and also makes me feel much worse! I hope you can understand, I'll be doing my best to try and get myself into a blogging schedule ASAP!
