What's On My Face #2

 
Last week was half-frustrating and half-enjoyable for me - poor Charlie is unwell so a big chunk of my free time was spent at the vet, but he seems to be on the mend now so it was all worth it. I had a nice breakfast catch up with some old work colleagues and despite the food being average (French toast was too sweet!) it was so good to chill out and find out what everyone has been up to. I find that sometimes life gets in the way of regular catch ups with them and it's hard to coordinate that many people who all work different hours! All in all it was a decent week, but I'm looking forward to what the next week will hold for me...but for now, lets see what is on the current makeup menu for me!
 
Eyes
Bobbi Brown Smokey Cool Eye Palette*
Base
Smashbox Photo-Finish Colour Correcting Primer (sample)
Illamasqua Skin Base
Clarins Instant Concealer*
Maybelline Master Glaze Blush Stick in Just-Pinched Pink
Maybelline Matte Maker Powder*
Lips
Rimmel Provocalips 16hr Kiss Proof Lip Colour in Make Your Move*

      So sweet of you to say that - Make Your Move probably wouldn't have jumped out at me on the shelf but it turns out to be much more flattering that other colours I often wear - funny how that happens!

      It is a really natural shade, but fun enough for me too! I am loving this shade sick at the moment, wearing it non-stop

      Thank you Saumya, the Bobbi Brown palette is really great for an easy everyday look but still makes me feel glam because of the packaging!

    Aww! Hope your pet gets better soon! They really are part of the family and it hurts to see them unwell! I totally am digging that lip color! We don't get rimmel cosmetics here anymore but I totally would order a shade or two online!

      Thank you Sharlynn - he is healing really well thank goodness! He is like a baby to us for sure.

      I think the bright pinks from the Provocalips line would be utterly amazing on you - always envious of your lips and ability to pull off the best shades!
