Charlotte Tilbury Unisex Healthy Glow
I bought this a few weeks ago while I was in London. It's a great product for summer as it's light. It's also great for days when you can't be bothered with full foundation.
It costs £35.00 so it's not cheap but I've been really enjoying it.

Pan That Palette 2016 Finale
I have been absent from this blog for way too long. I'm going to try and update it occasionally when I can and if I have something of interest to share.
I have been attempting to pan 2 palettes for the last year. It;s not as easy as it looks. Some people seem to fly through their eyeshadows. Alas not I.
Check out my Youtube video to see how I got on xx

No 7 Airbrush Away Foundation
This foundation is the latest one to join the No 7 family of foundations. It was launched last week and I happened to be in Boots the day after the launch and they were obviously pushing the new foundation. Of course me being me I didn't take much persuasion and I left with a shiny new bottle of it in the shade Calico.
It's reassuring that I was colour matched again and still came up with the same shade. I have always been matched to Calico by this machine so its pretty consistent.
The foundation costs £16.50 so it's quite expensive and therefore may be worth the wait for a 342 offer to come along. When I got mine there was a buy one get one half price so I also got myself colour matched to a blusher which I haven't tried as yet.
So far so good with the foundation. I've been wearing it for the last 3 days. It wears well, blends well and a little goes a long way. It doesn't settle into fine lines like some foundations do which is a huge plus for me as I find this to be a problem when one reaches a certain age.
My only complaint is I hate the packaging. It comes in a glass bottle with a dropper. Obviously there must be some sensible reason for the dropper but for the life of me I cannot see it. I find it to be awkward and not very efficient using the dropper. It's not very good at dropping. I have used it to swipe the foundation straight onto my face which works quite well and much better than using the dropper as an actual dropper. I then blend it in with my Real Techniques Buffing brush. The coverage is better than I expected and it can be built up to your desired coverage. This makes it great for every day use and also for building up for that special night out.
I cannot recommend this foundation highly enough. I truly love it. If only they would change the packaging then it would be perfect xx
