Traveling Essentials - Make-up | Leah'xo

Well who's going camping? I am.
I thought this would be a good opportunity to show you what I would take when I am traveling. There is no way just because I am going camping I am going to take nothing, I am pretending it's going to be like the tent in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
Anyway, what I take for camping is probably what you all will take abroad or something so here I go:

 

Simple Hydrating Moisturizer and Bayliss & Harding Lavender Body Lotion.

Miss Sporty Liquid Concealer and MUA Pro-Base Conceal and Brighten Kit.

Natural Collection Pressed Powder with a Lydia Professional Face Brush and a cheap eyeshadow brush from Ebay.

Powder Brush from The Poundshop and George Blush in Little Gem.

No7 Highlighter thing :) Collection Bronze Glow.

MUA Brow Pencil In Blonde.

 

I know my make-up case isn't nice but it's the only one I have. All the ones I try don't fit brushes into them. I hope you enjoyed seeing what I will take to camping. Really I showed you this to show you, actually all you need is a few things. For Example I use my highlighter as eyeshadow. Love all of you guys :)

Mistakes we have all made... | Leah'xo

Hey guys, today I am going to share 3 beauty related mistakes we have ALL made in the past summer. I am writing this so you don't make them this summer.

1. Skipping moisturiser. You may feel that you can stop using moisturisers because your skin tends to get more oily (sweaty) through-out the summer days. But don't stop using your daily moisturiser because your skin will be deprived of moisture. Your pores will then produce more oil to help with the dryness and then --- Constantly Oily Skin....

2. Wearing your hair up - too tight, too often. This may be an odd one but many people scrape their hair off their face so they aren't too hot. This is very bad for your hair. The hair elastics snap your hair if you wear it in the same place continually. Which causes those pesky fly away hairs. If you want your neck to breath try a loose(ish) messy bun or a braid. Even if you losen the hair elastic...

3. Make-up isn't attached to your face remember. When you sweat it will slip down or run. Try and use a primer for the extra security. If you tan in the sun remember to be ready to buy a foundation that matches your tan and if you wear nude lipstick. Well, that nude (when you have a tan) isn't nude anymore it may turn into concealer lips. Becareful!

 

Hope you enjoyed this blog post, feel free to comment if you have done any of these or if you have anymore tip/mistakes. Love y'all...

Make-up routine and confession.

Guys, for the rest of the week-end I'm at my dads. I am going to do my most recent make-up routine. All product names will be in the colour blue. Pictures of the product will be at the bottom <3

Step 1. I usually use Derma v10 dry skin cream because I get dry skin regulary. (A pain, I know!) Though sometimes I use Baylis and Harding Sweet Manderin& Grapefruit body lotion. I only use this when I don't have dry skin because if I put it on dry patches it stings (SO BAD). I don't know why, I think it might just be the fragrance.

Step 2. After that soaks in, I apply my foundation. For the summer time I use Laval Secret Beauty  Foundation (Shade Fair 006). You may not of heard of the brand because it isn't well know. But this foundation is flawless and moistorizing. 

Step 3. The I apply concealer under my eyes and on any blemish's I may have. I use the Miss Sporty Liquid Concealer or MUA Conceal and Brighten Kit. Depending on how much coverage.

Step 4.  I then put over the top any transparent pressed powder I have to hand. My favorite is Lizzie Hide the shine pressed powder in Translusent. I love this because it makes my face so matte.

Step 5. I then apply the Natural Collection Blushed cheeks in Pink Cloud.
  
Step 6. I then apply eyeshadow. Mostly using my Pallette (I CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME) and add any liquid eyeliner. And mascara. My favorite is Natural Collection Lash Length Mascara. But I hear the JORDANA Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara. Is amazing. Does anybody use it?
