Current Everyday Makeup

It's been a while since I stuck to the same products for over a week and with Chinese New Year being such a busy period, I did not have that time to play with new products. These are now my go-to products. If you follow me on Instagram you should be familiar with a few of these.

UK HAUL

Spending 5 days in the UK means taking advantage of picking up new bits and bobs that I wanted to try. This is more of a show rather than tell post and reviews will come later when I have tried out the products more.

REDISCOVERIES

Over the last month, I've used up a couple of products and have been going through my collection to see what can replace them. I've also had a huge breakout after Halloween so I needed some skincare saviours.

HOW TO CURL STRAIGHT LASHES TO LAST ALL DAY | LASH ROUTINE

Having straight Asian lashes, I always found it difficult to curl my lashes and get them to stay curled all day. For this, I have gone through a load of mascaras and tools because you need the perfect products to help you achieve that.

EMPTIES #3

I have been collecting my empties and seriously it has overflown from my little box. I think I've talked about most of these products before so some of them I won't go into so much detail. I am also a huge skincare fan so I do try out new things once in a while.

JULY FAVOURITES

Welcome back, it's a super late one but here is my July favourites or basically favourites from the last two months since I didn't post one last month while I was on holiday. Being on holiday meant I had to be practical and to be honest I wish I didn't take as much makeup as I did since I did not even touch 75% of it.

GOING THROUGH MY EMPTIES #2

Welcome back to another empties post, I am still on my spending ban therefore I have been using my makeup and skincare stash and have not bought anything at all, writing this up, I really need a new foundation since I only now have my summer shade which is about 3 shades too dark and I only have a pump or two left in the EX1 Foundation. I digress so let's take a look through my trash.

THE SPRING EDIT

Welcome back everyone, today I'm sharing my spring picks especially eyeshadows, bronzer, blush and highlighter picks. I've already picked out my 6 Spring Lip Picks so don't forget to check those out. Spring is when I turn to my fresh and brighter colours such as pinks, champagnes and bronze shades. I know everyone is loving their peach shades but I don't think the colours suit me that well on my eyelids.

GOING THROUGH MY EMPTIES #1

Who else likes looking through other people's trash to have a little nosey? When it comes to end of any beauty product I'm always excited to try out other new skincare but I like to remind myself how I got on with these 'empties' because I may repurchase them in the future - more likely I will repurchase in the future if I managed to stick with it, so let's get into it.

BEST OF BEAUTY 2016

Welcome to the best of beauty 2016, I've also posted my skincare edition on a separate post so if you're a skincare junkie like me pop along and check it out. 2016 has definitely been a year with amazing launches hence amazing products and those who made it into my faves of 2016, this is my 1st yearly round up post I've done and I really wanted to include my previous favourites prior to 2016 but that can be a holy grail post.

WEEK IN LIPSTICKS #2

Happy New Year, it's the first post of 2017 and I am enjoying these chill days where I can just shop, blog and eat, it's going to be back to reality very soon so I hope you've had a great ending to2016 and can't wait to start 2017. Being in the Christmas and New Year spirit I have been opting for deeper red and burgundy tones as my lip choice. I have very much enjoying rocking these tones and it allows me to dip back into my lipstick collection and fall in love with my forgotten favourites.

THE CHRISTMAS PARTY FACE/PRODUCTS

Last Saturday was a wild night for me - not often that I say that but I had my work Christmas do and this is when I scrub up and master all those undereye baking skills and eyeshadow blending skills that I watch from YouTube. I'm that type of girl that if you give me 2 hours to get ready I can use up that time and still be late. But here are all the products that I used on my face.

MINIMAL MAKE UP

Not every day that we want to pile on the makeup especially on our stay indoor days or no makeup day. I feel that makeup just starts the day off and prepares you for anything so you are more productive. Sometimes I do find that my no make-up days actually take more effort and time than my normal makeup routine but I need to master that. I have tried to use the least amount of products for a no makeup menu resulting to 7 products.
