This christmas I was very spoilt. My parents treated me to some new make up, my new favourite, Estee Lauder Double wear foundation and finishing powder. They also bought be a new perfume, Pure White Linen Pink Coral by Estee Lauder, which is a lovely scent that really suits me as I don't like strong perfume, its really floral and girly.
My mum and dad also got me my favourite moisturiser from St Tropez. It's perfect for me as it gives me a gradual tan on my face- I'm so pale so this is a life saver. It can be quite greasy but at this time of the year my skin is usually quite dry. I'll usually mix between using this moisturiser and my body shop moisturiser.
My boyfriend bought me Touche Eclat! I've wanted this concealer for ever but never got round to buying it. It's a great concealer for my under eye circles. It literally brightens up my under eye- which I suffer with pretty badly.
Well what can a say about Double Wear, I love it! Again something I hadn't owned before. Its lierally the best cover up on the high street. It lasts forever and it covers so well. It is pretty thick in consistency and it does dry quickly so you have to be careful when applying it. Once it dries that's literally it. You can't add layers to it otherwise it will build up and look 'too much.' A good make-up brush and moisturised skin will do the job though! I'm considering buying a good primer as this will help the application of this foundation. The finishing powder is great on days where I feel like I need to wear more make-up, especially in the evening or on a night out. Otherwise the foundation is plently on my skin.
Because double wear is such a thick foundation I try not to put it on everyday- plus its expensive. But I can see myself having to buy this quite regally and to be honest i won't mind. I usually buy low-end price foundations like Lo'real true match, but i noticed this really didn't last long enough and it started looking greasy on my skin.

I love these hilarious lip balms 'Lip Shit' a present from my boyfriend, he's a funny thing.
They're really tastes and the Asian Pear reminds me of tiger balm. I think both of the these balms include beez wax which I love in a lip balm. Previously I've had Bert Bee's lip balm which was great!
