Testing: L'Oreal Infallible Pro Glow Foundation ♡


I LOVE a good foundation review... and this week I have been testing out the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro Glow Foundation.

First of all... I have tried ALL of the L'Oreal Infallible range! I have used the 24 hour foundation (in the bottle) in 'Vanilla' for over a year and I really love the consistency and the finish as it is satin to demi-matte and lasts all day! 

I have also tried the 24Hour Total Cover (the thicker one) and I am on the fence with it... It has SUPER thick coverage and is between a liquid and mousse consistency... so it depends how you like the feel of that on your skin as it is quite heavy...  But if you love a good coverage that literally doesn't budge - this may be worth a try for you!

However, I am not a fan of the 24Hour Matte one (in the squeezy tube) as I feel it is too dry for my already dry-ish skin. I think I just prefer a glowy finish ... 

And that is where Pro Glow steps in!


I have been lusting over this ever since I saw my lovely Lady Writes use it! I love the packaging, I just think it looks super cute and I was so excited when I heard it has come to the UK!

I got the shade 203 as I felt this was closest to my light/ freckly colouring. If you think you are similar colouring to me; this could be a good shade for you!

First impressions were good! It was a little runnier than I am used to but I used my beauty blender to apply a thin first layer. I was in LOVE! It has light coverage and leaves a gorgeous, dewy finish 😍

I applied a second layer on just my cheeks for a bit more coverage and I have to say I was really impressed. It blended beautifully and even with concealers & powders on top it was light & looked seamless!

It claims to last 24hours... I can't say I left it on that long but it did last my whole 9 hour day and still looked gorgeous by the time I got home.

It says this is best for normal- dry skin and I do agree as it is a dewy/ glowy formula that may not suit oily skin. It also only has a lighter coverage, so if you prefer a more full coverage this probably won't be your cuppa tea!

Overall, I bloody LOVE this stuff! 💕 It is going in my holiday bag for definite! I feel it compares to the Mac Face & body but at £11!

Let me know if you try this and what your thoughts are!💄👍🏼😍

Lots of love EP 💕

New Year Resolutions

New Year Resolutions 💗 January is a funny time of year ... some people say it is the 'Monday of months' which I totally understand ... and other's see it as a time to think about the year ahead, new challenges, what they want to achieve in that year ... Which I also completely understand, too!  It is dark, grey, wet and often, it can feel like the longest month going and is still forever away from Summer. But it does get us all thinking about 'resolutions' and what we, often, want to change about ourselves.. They mostly involve weight or appearance change or loss (or they did for me for many years!) and we often have a target in our head of when we will meet the 'resolution has been made' which is often, never! I went into January promising myself that I would be kind to myself... that I would continue to be more positive, kind and caring to others, but also more to me! A lot of the time we become so wrapped up in others, caring for them,...

💕 New Products (to me!) Feb 2018 💕 I posted a Poll on Instagram on what post people would like to see ... and my 'new products I have been using' won by only 1 vote! So here it is... A few of my February 2018 newbies! First of all, I just want to say, these are products that are new to me ! They probably aren't necessarily 'new' to the make up world.. But to me they are newbies that I have been trying out on my face to see how I like them. First of all I have been loooooving the Barry M Illuminating Face & Body Spray! I have been using this most days in February and it gives such a gorgeous glow to the skin. It is such a bargain and look beautiful over make up and also on your collar bones for a bit of a 'glow from within' look. Big thumbs up! I bagged myself a 'Doll Light' from Doll Beauty in 'Like A Diamond' and I am literally obsessed! It is a tad pricey for the pan size, and it is a more shimmery tha...

"So Sensitive" ♡

-
♡ "You are so sensitive" ♡ Do you find the word "sensitive" is thrown around alot, and mostly holding a negative meaning?  The Oxford Dictionary definition is: "having or displaying a quick and delicate appreciation of others' feelings" Meaning that somebody who is sensitive is thoughtful towards others and their feelings.  Which, I don't feel is a particularly negative trait to have. So how has it come to be used in a negative way to describe a person? 'Oh you're just being sensitive' 'It's a joke... don't be so sensitive' We have come to be so conditioned to be super tough, super hard and to have no emotions in particular situations. This then means that some of us are made to feel silly when we do take slight offence or are sensitive to comments or react differently to how other's believe we should. I have ALWAYS been SUPER sensitive. I can't help it. I like to think I am a kind and car...
