FOTD || Rose Gold Overload


Hello everyone, today I have a face of the day post for you and so rightly named 'Rose Gold Overload' because I am loving anything rose gold at the moment and that obsession is taking over my life! I love how the colours look on my skin and work well together for the day and the night. This look is something that I have been going for constantly as it is just so easy to do and looks amazing!
As you can see I don't use a lot of products and that's what makes me love it even more! Lets start off with the face...
No7 Airbrush Away Primer - In my bid to finish up any samples that I own, I have started to use this primer to use it up. Not the biggest fan of it as it doesn't help with dry skin, however with this foundation and helping with diminishing pores it does really well.  

NYC Skin Match Luminizer Foundation - Oh lord, this foundation is amazing! I have been using this everyday for the last 2 weeks because I love everything about it. It gives me coverage, makes my skin look flawless and glowing, it does take two layers and you can build it up even more as on first application it is very light coverage. I think this will be great for the summer time as it really sits well on my skin with the primer, and for a very little price you are getting lots of product. There are 5 shades available and you will find one to match you I promise as I did! And it has a pump which makes application so much easier. 

Collection Concealer - Well, there really isn't much to say about this concealer is there! I talk about it all the time and therefore won't go on and on about it. But let me tell you that using this foundation and then this concealer gives my skin a flawless finish that I am so proud of! 

The Body Shop Powder - I like to set everything with a powder, and this one from the body shop also gives me a little bit of coverage along with helping to control the oil on my forehead. Body Shop have blown me away with this product and I want to get my hands on some other things from their line. 

Sleek Rose Gold Blush - I just knew that, the moment that I first laid my eyes on this blush and swatched it - I would fall in love. I am not usually a fan of blush on my skin as I have never found one that doesn't over do it. But this one from Sleek is perfect; it doesn't make me look like I have lots of makeup on my face and gives me this lovely glow on top of everything else a fresh glow of colour. 

Then on to the eyes and only two products this time, but both are my current favourites! And what started this whole look off...

Naked 3 Palette - If you haven't tried, bought or even looked at this palette yet then you need to because I promise you this will win you over. I love all the shades in this palette but there are a few colours that catch my eye every time I go to use it. I like to apply Nooner all over the lid as this matte shade is perfect to use as a base, then on my lid to build up the colour I use Liar and then in the outer corner and crease I take a mix of Burnout and Dust which just work well together. Using Strange in the in the inner corner and brow bone pulls everything together. 

Soap&Glory Thick and Fast - This mascara just does it for me. I am not one to try out a lot mascaras because I don't always wear them and love my great lash one from Maybelline but this one is just mighty fine! I love how much volume it gives to my lashes and they just grow in size and thickness because of the formula of the mascara. I can't use this on my bottom lashes though as the brush is too big for my small eyes!


Urban Decay Naked 3; Review+Swatches♥


I just want to start off with apologising, if you are one of those people who are reading yet another post on the UD Naked 3 palette! The entire world has gone loco for this palette, and there have been many reviews and swatch posts already posted, but I thought that I would just share my opinion with you as I just have to rave about it! 

This has been one of the most anticipated makeup releases ever in my opinion, Urban Decay have stolen so many hearts and one of them being mine. I adore by Naked 1 palette and had my heart set on buying 2 last month, but it all changed when 3 popped along and stole the spotlight! I decided to skip buying 2 and move straight onto 3 instead. I am unsure about whether or not I am going to buy 2 yet, but am hoping to buy Basics..anyway enough of a ramble lets' get on with it!
After days of sitting beside the door waiting for the postman to deliver this as a parcel, IT CAME! When I opened it, my heart skipped a beat. I was in complete shock, it was just so beautiful to look at and touch that I was so scared to even use it.After photographing everything and staring at for the whole day, I decided to use it and it was like putting pure heaven on my eyes. 
What comes with the palette? With the Naked 1 I got a full size of the original primer potion(that I love) and this palette comes with a double ended brush from UD and 4 samples of their primer potion, each with a weeks worth of primer enclosed > Original, Eden,Sin, and Anti-Aging.
Packaging+Shadows? The case is a rose gold colour with waves that are indented across it and it snaps shut. It is filled with 12 beautiful eye shadows that are all very soft, blendable and very pigmented. There is a mix of matte and glitter/satin shadows that are just overall amazing. My skin is fairly dark, and all of the shadows swathed fine apart from Dust which took a few layers to show up as it is very heavy with glitter and Trick which would not show up on my skin at all, so there is no swatch - apart from they were all a treat to use!
Here are a few pictures and the swatches, you can expect a face of the day tutorial in a few weeks using this palette! I am also really proud of my photography with the palette as the light was awful!
