Hey guys!
So I was on my way to Tesco to pick up some ingredients to make homemade Chipotle style bowls, (would this be something anyone would want a recipe on? Let me know!), and I just felt like putting on some makeup. As I’d been slap free all day, I just kinda felt like making a bit of an effort!
I was so happy with the result that I decided to show you all how I got it!
First, I quickly smeared on some of my Seventeen makeup CC cream. A more detailed review of this is on its way, because I can’t quite make up my mind yet on this product…
I then evened out my skin tone a little more with my Maybelline Age Rewind concealer, brushed through my eyebrows with a spooly, and dabbed on the smallest amount of ‘accept’, from Makeup revolution’s Affirmation palette. Guys, this is the best damn palette I’ve ever had.
I used the tiniest bit of mascara, concentrating on my roots and the outer edges of my lashes because I wanted a really subtle look.
For the cheeks, I applied this mauve/pink blush from the Golden Sugar palette. I was so surprised with how this turned out – when I swatched it, it looked the least pigmented out of all 8, but when I used it on my cheeks it was AMAZING! I then applied the smallest amount of the lighter bronzer on my cheekbones.
I outlined my lips using ‘The One’ lipliner, again from makeup revolution, and went over with MUA’s lipstick in ‘Bare’. Previously I would never had worn a nude this pale, but with the liner underneath I love the combination and will definitely be reaching for it more!
For hair I just slicked it into a high bun because it was pretty dirty, and that was it! It took me about 5 minutes and I was so happy with the result – perfect for a summer evening!
What do you guys think?
Much Love
Xoxo
PS CHECK OUT MY GIVEAWAY! YAY!
This lip combination looks gorgeous! Can’t wait to hear your review of the cc cream x
Thank you! I think I’m making up my mind so it should be up early next week! Just one of those products which I keep changing what I think of it haha! Xoxo
Is the mua lipstick a matte finish? Really need to get both lip products as they look lovely on you!
No it’s really creamy so kind of glossy but when you blot it then it doesn’t come across as so glossy! Thank you so much 🙂 xoxo

Hey 🙂
Oh wow, such a lovely ‘no-makeup makeup’ look! 😀
That lip combo looks so incredible! I’ve been searching for a nude that won’t make me look like I’m dead but won’t be too pink either and I’m pretty sure that’s the one!
Great post!
xx
Thank you! It’s only a pound so I would definitely recommend trying it, I’ve had the same nude struggle forever! Putting a lip liner under definitely has helped me, especially as my lips are pretty pink naturally! Xoxo
Gorgeous look! x
Thank you! 😘 xoxo
I love the natural look! The eyeshadow palette is so gorgeous.
Am excited to hear about the CC cream review, since I’m a huge fan of BB/CC creams. 🙂
Thank you! This palette makes me so happy all of the shades are amazing I would highly recommend it! Yeah I’m just getting into them so hopefully you like it! Xoxo
So beautiful x
Thank you! 🙂 xoxo
