It's been a while since I have done a beauty post! I
thought I'd do a post on the makeup I wore to a Valentine’s Day Charity
event. I also wanted to show you
two new products that I decided to try out! I had every intention of trying out
a new foundation when my Teint Idole Ultra 24H ran out. No...I really did! I
went to the shops in the hope of trying out the Chanel Perfection Lumière. Only to find they had, in fact, discontinued all
the shades suitable for darker skin tones (I'll leave that rant for another
day). Anyway I just went straight over to Lancôme and to my dismay my go to was
sold out! The lady at Lancôme was uber nice and convinced me to get the Teint
Miracle instead.
I have to say I was a little bit sceptical because I really
love a matte finish to my makeup, however I decided to go ahead and get it and
I am really impressed! The semi matte finish is much more flattering and the
foundation glides on much smoother than the Idole Ultra. It has a scent to it
so if you have sensitive skin it's probably worth getting a sample to try out
first.

I also decided to get The Porefessional
from Benefit as I have heard so much about it and the lady at Benefit did such
a good job of convincing me (this is why I shop online... I can't say no!). The
Porefessional is supposed to limit the appearance of pores. I can't confirm
that it does that exactly because I don't really have large pores. It does
however make your skin incredibly soft and the satin finish is an ideal base
for your makeup. I'm really keen on trying out other primers so if you have any
suggestions let me know!!
