Skincare regime

Previously in my blog I have posted about skin care, but over the past year my routine has certainly changed! 

These two are my holy grail products,

The world of beauty raves about is the Garnier micellar cleansing water , and my goodness no wonder it is such a steal! It's about £4.99 a bottle, but anytime ive ever bought it is has been on a promotion of some variation. It is perfect for removing all makeup! Even waterproof mascara!  My skin has never taken so kindly to a makeup remover , as they usually all have oil in them and that makes my skin  slimey mess! 

The next lotion I use all the time is my clinique clarifying lotion 3, it works perfectly to keep my skin fresh and much much less oily! It doesn't sting or flare my skin up or dry it out at all!
I would definitely recommend visiting a counter to get a 7 day trial of these products before buying them incase they don't agree with your skin! Once I tried the 7 day allocation I then went back and bought the 30 day kit , just to make sure that everything stayed fine with my skin and I wouldn't waste a full size product! 

These are the only two products I use daily without fail.

I always seem to have commitment issues when it comes to eye creams and moisturisers!

Right now I am varying between, 

The body shop Seaweed mattifying moisture lotion SPF15 
And 
Clinique dramatically different moisturizing gel

For my moisturisers

And between 
clinique all about eyes 
And 
Kiehls creamy eye treatment with avocado 

Once I finish up the remainder of these products I'll make a decision on which one to repurchase, 
As I really can't make my mind up on which one!

It's been a while.

                     
Hello , it appears I really have been neglecting this lovely little blog of mine, what can I say , life got in the way!
Any way, I decided to give this another little go it , it might not be the best or the most informative blog you'll ever come across but I'm only new to this blogging business! 

In my blog the same as before I will be posting mainly about makeup, since I have a serious addiction to the stuff and buy It all the time. 
Hopefully this will consist of pictures and information about beauty hauls I make and information I've learnt.
Maybe even one day branching into tutorials...who knows! 
I've even started myself a little youtube channel  ( I really can't promise that will be any good but I am certainly going to give it a try! )

I'm more often than not found on Instagram, it's my addiction . So give me a wee follow or like
Deborahkane 😘 
I'd like to say I post on twitter just as often but I really really don't 
Debbiekanee 😘 

One day I will manage to get all my user names the same! 

So for now I'm going to post this while I wait on my first little video uploading to youtube, and I will post it in another blog with product info and such :) 

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Sunday 23 June 2013

everyday.

my day to day makeup choices change as often as the weather, Scotland can have 4 seasons in one day haha!
since today is Sunday I haven't bothered with makeup of any description today ( with the exception of my mum testing out her mally primer and mally eye brightener on me ) so I'll give you my Face of the day for yesterday!

this is a great cooling all over face pre-primer item. after reading many blog reviews of this I decided it was a must buy for my collection, it helps with skins over all radiance, I haven't tried it alone under foundation but I may give this a bash tomorrow.
As I mentioned earlier my skin is typically terrible combination skin. so primers always pose as a challenge for me, I've found this to semi solve the problem, I only apply this to my t-zone and starts of my cheeks.
This purchase was a rookie blunder, I normally use illamasqua rich liquid foundation 133 and felt it dried out my skin a bit too much , and the girl on the counter suggested getting the satin primer for underneath it, I have now discovered I can only apply this to my neck and around the frame of my face/cheek area, as it is definitely a tad too shiny for my poor combination skin.
 
Maybelline Fit Me Foundation. 110 Porcelain  £7.99
Being a fair skinned lady from Scotland, I STRUGGLE to find foundations that are the perfect shade for me, and when Maybelline released this range of products I managed to get my hands on a sample of the foundation in 115, which was marginally too dark for me, id seriously need to get my fake tan on to make it blend, so when browsing my local Watt Brothers Department store ( no website available ) I couldn't believe my luck when I stumbled across shade 110! the only unopened bottle in store! it is a PERFECT match for my skin, so obviously I grabbed a bottle! ( it was about £6.99 on sale I think ) I now cannot find another stockist of this foundation, its left me broken hearted!</3
 
Maybelline Fit me Pressed Powder 110 Porcelain £5.99
this is unfortunately the same story as the foundation, cannot find another stockist anywhere, Watt brothers did have a few of these in stock at the time, reduced to £4.99, I can see myself heading back to grab a few more of them!
 
 
I never manage to continue to use concealers I normally chuck them at the back of the drawer or in the bin after a few weeks as I never find them fit for purpose, this however on the other hand lives in my makeup bag and gets used every single day!
 
 
 
 
my lovely mum bought me a benefit kit for my Christmas, called Cabana Glama, it had a smaller version of Hoola in it, and I absolutely ADORE it, I find bronzers a difficult factor of makeup, I either end up orange or patchy, but after learning about this contouring phase that's going on in the beauty industry I've finally found the perfect use for a bronzer! hooray!
 
this box of powder blush was on my wish list for such a long time, finally bought it and I think its fantastic! so many blush colour combinations can be created from this little beauty!
 
I adore this fine powder, I used to use the colour matched shades of illamasqua pressed powder, but they've since been discontinued and replaced with all purpose translucent powders. next on my buy list is the loose version!
I've just recently started to lighten my hair so my usual benefit brow zings is definitely too dark, I picked this up in the illamasqua winter sale for a mere £5! and now its the perfect shade for my lighter locks to blend with!
I have never really been a fan of highlighters , but this has such a gorgeous sheen to it when its applied, I normally pop it underneath my brow arch and along the centre of my nose and cupids bow.
this was a spur of the moment purchase, like I said earlier I have never been a fan of highlighters but this is probably one of the nicest glows, its a powder compared to most that come in cream or liquid forms, dusted along the top of my cheeks it just adds an extra dimension to the face!
 
CHEAP AND CHEERFUL , I adore this liner! well, in saying that I don't adore it when it runs a bit into my eyes and takes forever to clean out!, but aside from that its the second best liner ever ( my favourite was discontinued so that's a sore subject ) and at £3.99 its a brilliant and welcome addition to my makeup bag!
 
Am I the only one who misses the chubby pencil :(? don't get me wrong the finer pencil is excellent but I think id like to have both at the same time !
 
I lusted after this palette for such a long time! and since buying it I have used it practically every day since bringing it home. recommended highly!
 
 
Topshop Mascara FREE
I got this little mascara for free when I was buying two other Topshop makeup items, so I don't have a price range to give on it as they don't have it listed on the website! the brush has to be one of my favourite kinds, I love bristle brushes, none of this comb nonsense! give me my big bushy bristle brushes!
 
I'm still unsure if this setting spray actually works , I use it most days but I've never really known if its doing its job. probably a big con, but needless to say I'll still continue to use it.
 
 
WOW now that I've sat and listed all the items I apply to my face on a daily basis, I can honestly say I'm totally shocked! gone are the days of a quick swipe of foundation eyeliner and mascara!
