Estee Lauder Daywear Moisturiser with SPF 15


Estee Lauder DayWear is great for normal / combination skin. The texture is quite thick, but not oily, which is great for anyone who has oily skill like me. Even though it is thick, its really light and I find that it absorbs well into my skin. At the moment, this is £40.00 for a 50ml tub which is pretty good value for money.

It was voted 'InStyle Best Beauty Buys 2013 - Best Moisturiser with an SPF' 

They have recently changed the style of the tub, and the original tub that I have is a 75ml one, so I'm not sure if maybe the price / size was changed now the style of the packaging has changed.

All in all, I think that if you are after a good value moisturiser, then this is a good buy. Always a good one to keep in the house :)

Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish Pressed Powder


Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish Pressed Power. 

I use this powder in Pale Yellow (shade 1) as I have such pale skin. I also have very oily skin which is the main reason I use this in the first place.

I have been using this stuff for about 2 years now, on and off, I have found a few things inbetween, but always end up coming back to this powder. It's good value for money as an every day product.

Benetint cheek and lip stain

Benetint is a gorgeous cheek and lip stain/tint by Benefit. If like me, you want a natural 'tint' to your lips without the faf of lipstick and lipgloss, then this is the product for you.

I will admit, I very rarely use this as a cheek tint. The main issue with this as a cheek tint / stain is that I find you can't really wear this over foundation. Whenever I have tried to wear this over foundation, I have found that it just smudges my foundation and goes a weird texture.

However, as a lip tint, it is a totally different story. This stuff is great for adding a very natural colour to your lips that will last all day, unlike lipstick. The main reason I like this is in this wintery weather, my hair blows all over my face, and if I wear lipstick or lipgloss, my hair quickly gets stuck in my lipcolour, but not this with! And it lasts for ages. Defiantly well worth your money.

And if you do want something with a bit more 'pop', add your lipstick over the top for a bright, long lasting colour :)
