First Blog! @ 8:07 AM

Hey everyone! This is my first post on this blog and I am so excited to have finally started this! I've had many blogs over the years, but this is my first beauty blog. Being a makeup artist, I feel right at home here. So look forward to makeup reviews, tips and tricks, hauls, give-aways etc!
So I'm just going to get straight into it by doing a review on some products that I've recently purchased.
First up is Napoleon Perdis Auto Pilot Primer:

I love this product. It feels very refreshing on the face and is especially good if you have dry skin as it also hydrates. Once you've applied it to your face, I reccommend letting it dry for a couple of minutes, just to really let it do it's job. Remember it's a crime not to prime! lol. A quote from Napoleon himself.

Next up is Stila Illumination Tinted Moisturizer in Shade 01.

I bought this to use as a highlighter and to give me more of a glowy complexion. I kind of love/hate this product. It does the job it's supposed to do and looks very natural (no bulky bit of glitter just a sheer shimmer) however I do not like the scent at all for a beauty product. It reminds me of a sunscreen/rubbery sort of scent. I just don't like it.

And the final product is Revlon ColorStay Mineral Eye Shadow in Midnight Garnet 03.

When I saw this I was so excited because I love the colours. Very wearable colours for everyday and night. Unfortuantly the colours aren't as pigmented as I would desire. The come off very sheer and shimmery with not as much colour coming through. Will I throw it away? No, but it definitely is not my favourite by far.

Anyway, as it is almost 2 in the morning I must get to sleep! xx
