DRUGSTORE / AFFORDABLE FLAWLESS FACE MAKEUP ROUTINE







Hey everyone!

I decided to film a 'flawless face tutorial' using only affordable/drugstore products for my base. I have oily/combo skin so I like a look that still gives my skin a glow but prevents extra oils coming through. This is the type of look I would go for if I was going on a night out mainly as it looks great in pictures and really holds up throughout the entire night!

PS - after I edited this video I remembered that I normally only use the cornsilk loose powder in my tzone because it does give you flashback in photos, so maybe use another powder such as the rimmel stay matte powder if you want to set the rest of your face :)

Let me know in the comments if you'd like to see a similar routine but with a range of highend and affordable make up products!

ESSIE NAIL POLISH || SPIN THE BOTTLE


Essie Nail Polish 'Spin The Bottle'


After spending foreverrrrr trying to find the perfect nude nail polish I think I may finally have done it! I saw this on a youtube favourites video and rushed out to buy it, and its the Essie nail polish in the colour 'Spin the Bottle."

Whenever I've bought nude nail polishes in the past i've never been completely happy with them, they've always been either too pink or too dark/grey toned for my liking. This still has a slight pink tone to it but I love it! You do need two coats as one isn't enough. I always use a clear top coat and it lasts a reasonable amount of time before chipping, but not longer than a week.

I bought mine from Boots, in-store, for £7.99, which for me is a more expensive nail polish, I wouldn't really spend much more than that to be honest!  I don't normally pay too much for nail polishes because I don't notice a huge difference with formulations.

I couldn't find this nail polish on the Boots website but Superdrug also sell the Essie brand which I'll link down below :)
