Spring 5 Product Face

The '5 Product Face' challenge was one I first saw when starting a blog and I've always wanted to try it as it seems fun and I get to be inventive and think about which products I really need. I'm really into these blog tag challenges, hint if anyone wants to tag me in any or suggest some for me to do feel free because I'm up for the challenge.


   

   

The products I used were Rimmel Lasting Finish foundation, Rimmel Brow This Way, Bourjois Bronzing Powder (not sure the exact name), Benefit's They're Real and Benetint

I used the Rimmel Lasting Finish foundation on my face for coverage as it's one of the darkest and strongest foundations I own and could cover my entire face without any other product over it alright. Staying with Rimmel products, Brow This Way was used to fill in my eye brows and give them definition and also gives them a natural look, what this look aims to achieve. I used the Bourjois Bronzing Powder for contouring my cheekbones and also used it on my eyelids. I'm really surprised how nice the colour was on my face, the picture doesn't do it justice. It added a really nice pop of colour to my face and I really like using it as an eyeshadow. My eyelashes were coated with my favourite lengthening mascara, Benefits They're Real. The last product used was Benetint which I have talked about on my blog previously. It's a really pale pink on my lips and looks very pretty along with the Bourjois bronzer shade. The finished look is pictured below. 



The finished look was very subtle and natural and I really liked it. I would easily wear this if I needed something simple to put on or had very little time to do my makeup. Perfect for spring and the oncoming summer days too.

What do you think of this look? I would love if other people did this and let me see their 5 product choices! 

Valentines Day MakeUp Look

I wasn't particularly doing anything for Valentines today but I thought it was a perfect day to do an inspired make up look, since I never do make up of the day posts, why not today. I've loved reading other bloggers Valentines inspired looks so I decided to do my own. My ideal Valentines look is of course a classic red lip with subtle smokey eyes, both casual and classy. I used my favourite proper red lipstick, with a pink and brown smokey eye which you can't really see very well.

This is my finished look, I have a face that makeup just always comes out more natural than it is, dramatic makeup always looks really weird on me. 
 Although I believe Valentines day is a pointless holiday and you should show love to your other half all year round I do love seeing other people spoil the people they love and just seeing them happy. I do like the idea behind it, just the less commercialized version. Hope you've all had a wonderful day.

What did everyone do for Valentines day?
