Benefit 10 Blush

Hi ladies!

I was very excited about trying Benefits bronzer and highlight duo, 10.The packaging looked so pretty, as did the product. Turns out, I was wrong! The bronzer looked dirty on my skin and the highlight looked chalky and unnatural. In case it was just paranoia (I am quite the perfectionist) I asked a few of my friends what they thought. They all agreed that it looked very harsh and false on my skin. I'm so disappointed!


Ok, rant over!, I've been hearing a lot about Barry M Dazzle Dusts. I think I might try a few. I really hate product fall-out so I'm hoping they stay on my eyelids.

Has anyone tried these?

Hi everyone!

Loved doing my very first haul video for YouTube. Hope you like it!

Hi everyone,

I'm loving Olay Multi-Radiance Moisturising Lotion! It's light and gives the skin a gorgeous glow.

I've been wearing this under my foundation. It's a great base. I looked exhausted this morning and one pump of this perked my skin up.The slight shimmer looks great on my skin but it might not be for everyone! I have combination skin and it hasn't caused any breakouts. It also has SPF 15.

Best of all, it's not expensive! It costs about €11.00 / £7.49
Have a great day!

Here's how Clinique Superfit Foundation looked after nearly 12 hours (see my last post for info)

Clinique Superfit Foundation

Hi ladies!

I wore the clinique foundation I bought for the first time today. I'll upload a review on my you tube channel in the next half hour.

When I recorded the video I had been wearing the foundation for 8 hours and it still looked great. Since then I've moved boxes and carried 25 large canvas's up two flights of stairs and it still looks quite good (my lovely mum made me remove my paintings from her house into mine...yes, it has taken me two years to move out fully).

I'm very happy with this product. The colour is natural, it doesn't cling to dry parts of the skin, it stayed matt at all day, zero shine ... even after hauling art work around. And no break-outs, yet!

I applied it over Olay Multi-Radiance Moisturiser and Make Up For Ever Corrective Base. I used the MUFE foundation brush. I then applied mac Studio Sculpt concealer where necessary and finished with a little Mac Mineralise Skin Finish Natural.

I have to say, if a foundation is still on my face 12 hours after application, I'm a happy girl!

Mac Studio Finish Foundation Review - Youtube video

Hi guys!

I just uploaded my first you tube video. Yay!

I had such a horrible reaction to mac Studio Fix foundation. I'm so disappointed!
And so my search for the perfect foundation continues.




What's your favourite foundation?

Hi everybody!

I love trying new make-up and beauty products so I decided to start a blog so I have somewhere to ramble... since no one will else will listen! I know there are people out there who understand my make-up obsession!

And so it begins...

I flew to London for the weekend and did some shopping.... okay, a lot of shopping! I was particularly excited about going to the Mac store in Foubert Place.

Here is what I bought:

Underage lipglass
Creme de Nude lipstick
Mineralised Skin Finish Natural
Well dressed Blush
Antiqued eyeshadow
Satin Taupe e/s
Sketch e/s
Tempting e/s
Deep Truth e/s
Woodwinked e/s
All That Glitters e/s
Sable e/s
Select Cover Up Concealer
Studio Sculpt Concealer
222 Brush



I'd say I walked off a few pounds trying to find the store... added bonus! I got very lost, London is significantly larger than Dublin!!

I'm going to try all of these out, experiment with different looks and post some reviews. I'd love to hear what other people think about the products or if you have any suggestions. I might post a few tutorials on youtube in the next few days!
