Full Face of High End Products

Hello you beauties!

I did a similar post to this last week but the focus on that one was drugstore makeup, whereas today's post is going to be a full face of high end makeup. I was actually very surprised that I managed to find every item needed for a full face but I did (although a lot of things on this list happens to be BareMinerals products) and so here it is.

*Pictures to follow at a later date*

1. My choice of primer is the BareMinerals Prep Step primer. While it isn't the best primer I have ever used, it really is moisturising which is why I tend to use it a lot.
2. The high end foundation I always go for is the BareMinerals Original Foundation in the shade 'Light' - one reason because it is the only high end foundation I own but also because it offers great coverage while being very lightweight.



3. My high end foundation of choice is the BareMinerals (I told you!) concealer in the shade 'Bisque', which doesn't offer the best coverage but works really well with the foundation as they are both powder products.
4. To finish my base, I always use the BareMinerals (I know, this is getting ridiculous!) Hydrating Mineral Veil, which I love as it is easy to just dust over while giving my skin a little more 'life' to it.
5. When I'm using high end products, I am usually doing so to impress. So I contour rather than just giving a warm glow. For this, I always swear by using the Benefit Hoola bronzer (yes, finally, something other than BareMinerals!) which you all know it is one of my favourite bronzers of all time despite it being a little more pricey than my Bourjois bronzer.


6. Back to BareMinerals, for blush I always reach for my BareMinerals blushers and my favourite one has to be the shade 'The Whisper'.
7. For highlight, I love using the Stila liquid luminizer in the shade 'Kitten Shimmer' which surprisingly works well over powder products and I use for a lovely warm glow.
8. For eyeshadows, I am a massive fan of BareMinerals eyeshadow quads. I usually reach for their one called 'A List'.
9. I recently discovered the Princess Marcella Borghese mascara which has now become one of my favourite mascaras to use.


10. I usually stick to my Freedom or Soap and Glory eyebrow products, but when I want to use a high end brow pencil, I always use the Benefit Goof Proof brow pencil.
11. Finally, no look is complete without something on the lips, I really really love the Giorgi Armani lipgloss in the shade 'Pink' which isn't a sticky gloss and adds a hint of glitter/shimmer while not being too over the top.

I don't usually use high end products - do you? If so, what would you recommend?

Look Incredible Beauty Box Review July 2016


Hello you beauties!

My final beauty box of the month is here, and I must admit this one is always my favourite one each month (saving the best until last).

I am so excited that I'm just going to go in with this month's box.

Price of box is £18.99 per month. And £2.50 P&P
There are 5 products in this month's box
This box is worth £87.93
The brands included in this box are: Ciate, Nanshy, ultrasun, Urban Decay and Giorgio Armani


Ciate Corrupted Neon Manicure (£9.99)
Again, some more Ciate nail polish! I feel like I am drowning in nail polish from Look Incredible at the moment as this is the third box from them and all of them have had nail polish in them. I will not complain yet though, as I really really love nail polish. However, I am not too keen on the idea of neon polish, as I don't like bright bright colours, especially this pink. However, I will try it out - I may end up loving it in the future.

Nanshy Marvel 4 in 1 Makeup Blending Sponge (£5.95)
This product actually helped me out so much receiving it this month. I've been looking at the Real Technique blending sponges but now I don't have to consider buying one as I now have this one! It has a similar sort of shade, with the flat side which I find will make it easier for me to use. It is a lovely mint colour too, and I cannot wait to try it out.

Ultrasun Sports SPF50 Tranparent sun protection spray (£24.99)
I was actually slightly disappointed when I saw this in the box, as I don't feel like I'll get much use out of it. However, I thought about it and I'm going to try this out for when I go on my bike rides, as it says it is perfect for sports. With it being transparent I feel like it will be easy to apply and not get everywhere, so I will try this out in the future. 

Urban Decay Lush Lash System (£28)
I am actually one of those lucky people with really nice long natural lashes anyway, so I don't think this product will actually help me out much, but I'll try it anyway and see if it can add just a little bit more volume. I probably wouldn't pay £28 for this product, but if I like this enough then I'll consider buying it again if I can find it anywhere cheaper.

Giorgio Armani Lip Gloss (£19)
When I saw this in the box, I think I actually screamed a little with excitement. This is a brand that I never though I would own before and now I do! This is just so perfect and I still can't believe I own it. It's such a perfect pink shade, perfect for the summer and this is a product that will become a regular part of my makeup routine within the next few months. 

So, whilst this isn't my favourite Look Incredible box (last month's was definitely the best so far), I really do like this month's box and I am excited to try out all the products. I cannot wait for next month's box.

I'll be back on Monday with my July favourites for you all!
