This month has been cold but as normal in winter(even though it's still autumn) the sky was blue and there was few days of bad weather. If it's raining I don't usually wear makeup because it just comes off or gets smeared across my face, but there was a lot of good weather. I tried to do my makeup as often as I could so I could test out some new techniques.
Maybelline lash sensational is my mascara favourite and loads of others love it too! I don't have the waterproof one but it still has a good staying power and I could probably get away with wearing this in a drizzle. The colour is strong (mine is the shade black) and it fans out my lashes the way I want - it might be my favourite mascara!!!
Rimmel Match perfection is my choice for foundation, I have the shade 010 light porcelain. It does pretty much exactly what it says on the bottle and I have really enjoyed using it. It is a bit light but all of my concealers are too dark so this balances my face out. My only fault with this is that it has a dewy finish (it does say it keeps skin hydrated) but I can easily fix that with powder. I would recommend this to any skin type (if you can find a shade - they don't go very dark) but take caution if you have oily skin.
For my powder I like to use the MUA pro base prime and conceal powder. This has 4 colours but is a shade of beige when you swirl them together, it looks translucent on the skin so any skin colour can use it. It does mattify and I use this alone on days I just want to set my makeup. If I want a matte finish for the whole day I will use a matte powder and this on top to lock it in place and it lasts most of the day.
Chapped lips are a big problem for me in the colder months so I always have a lip balm to hand. Recently I have enjoyed the body shop's born lippy in passionberry. I love the scent, it moisturises my lips and lasts a while so I don't have to reapply it too much.
Also, I have been getting into matte liquid lipsticks more and more, testing different ones to find my favourite. I love the MUA velvet lip lacquer in "tranquillity", I have a review of it on my instagram, so go check it out!
That was all of the makeup products I've been loving this month, hope you've enjoyed it!<3
