Hey Guys! So today I went out to buy some much needed groceries and instead ended up in Myer and David Jones browsing (and buying) makeup. That's normal, right?
Anyway, so I was really in need of some new foundation. As I am very pale with pink undertones in my skin, I find it really hard to get a correct match in colour without looking like I'm ill. To be honest, it's pretty sad how many brands don't really make the really light colours, especially when we break out or get any sort of discolouration it is extrememly more noticable than on the darker colours.
So after going around different counters,(one in particular tried to push me to buy they're lightest shade, which looked like a sandy colour, then suggested I buy some white airbrush foundation and mix it in. Thanks, but no thanks. It's an idea I've already thought of but it's not cheap or practical for everyday.)I went to the Bobbi Brown counter. After patiently waiting a good 30 minutes to get served, I ended up buying the Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation in Alabaster. This is the fairest shade, and so far I'm seriously impressed.

Being that it is oil free I don't recommend this if you have normal-dry skin.
LOVES: SPF 15, OIL FREE, SEMI-MATTE FINISH
DISLIKES: $$$ it's expensive- but worth it.

I also picked up a Bobbi Brown Metallic Long-Wear Cream Shadow in Pink Oyster.

I was so blown away by this colour. I just loved it! It's such a girly pink colour that has a great shimmer to it. I always think a pale pink is very flattering when used as a shadow. You can build up the colour and use it as a one colour look, or add some other colours and blend to give a more dramatic look. I'll definitely do a tutorial using this soon!

I also bought Rimmel's I Heart Lasting Finish nail polish in Hot shot.

I am such a fan of matte colour nail polishes at the moment. I thought the colour is so pretty and bright that I had to get it. I'll let you know after about a week what I think about it.

I bought some other accessories and such but I'll do another blog on that later! xx
