The fairest of them all...

Hey guys,
I thought I would do a post about something that I've found really hard to come across, pale foundations. I am really quite ghostly pale, (I prefer the term 'english rose', sounds alot nicer!), and I like to embrace my natural colour. Having worn makeup for about 6 years now, I've tried a fair few, (no pun intended!), foundations, most of which are too yellow, orange, or just dark for my skin.

September Favourites..

Doing favourites seems like an easy way to get into the swing of this blogging lark, so here are the products I reached for most in September! 




  • Natural Collection Vanilla Body Spray- a lovely, cheap body spray that lasts for hours.  I wear this every day!
  • Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick in Alabaster- the only foundation I have ever found that is pale enough for me. Quite full coverage, really nice finish.   
  • Ben Nye Lip Brush- really good for applying lipstick, especially if you haven't got a lipliner in the right colour.
  • Soap and Glory Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser- gorgeous for cleansing the skin and removing makeup. Has a really nice texture that turns oil like on the skin, and smells like lavender.
  • 17 Lastin Fix Lipstick in New black - dark red/purple colour, which isn't matte or drying on the lips
  • The Pink Cow shower gel in Mint Candy- already spoken about this, i'm totally obsessed!
  • Clarins Wonderlength mascara in black- great mascara with a really thin wand. Lengthens  amazingly, and adds thickness if wiggled at the base of lashes.
  • Cosmic Radiance perfume- Britney's tenth scent, I own them all! This one smells a bit like Lenor or some other fabric softener, not too overpowering or strong.
  • Cocoa Butter vaseline- smells delish! 
If anyone else has any favourites, feel free to write them or link them below, I love reading them! x
