Beauty | Collection Naturally Matt Foundation

Collection is a great affordable brand which is available in Superdrug, Boots and Wilkinsons, there a cruelty free brand that focuses on makeup that is wearable at affordable prices. I've been using the products from the brand for 10 years now and haven't looked back, so here is my review off the Naturally Matt foundation in the shade Porcelain.

Blogmas - Day Twenty One VCSecretSanta

This year I've taken part in a secret santa which was the Vanilla Crush swap which was a £15 swap. I had Maisie doing my secret santa and she picked a great selection of goodies for me!

Lifestyle - October Favorites

Autumn has been my favorite month since my childhood so I always end up with a lot of products and items that I've been loving, so I thought it was only natural to do an October Favorites and share with everyone my Autumn favorites. I always go for comfort in the colder months so a lot of the things I'm going to share are home comforts with a few beauty items.

Candles
I have been burning so many candles this last month that I might have to go candle shopping spree soon, from Yankee Candles to large glass jar candles there is always one burning in my room. The main scent I've been burning has been berries and citrus scents with the odd rich toned candle in the mix, I've been going for the brand Yankee Candles as I find there small sample candles to be cheap enough to burn at free will but also the scent fills the room with such heavenly scents.

Beauty - Collection Contour Kit

I have to admit I am a complete newbie to contouring and almost get a worried knot of anxiety in my stomach when it comes to applying bronzer to my face. It seems so unnatural to apply such a dark product onto my pale skin tone but I went for it and purchased my first contouring kit. I went into my local Superdrug and brought one from a brand I know and love Collection at only £4.19 full price but there's always offers on.

Collection Field Day Lipstick - Tulip

I've been wanted to get my hands on a matte lipstick for ages now and as I only own one from the brand MAC I wanted to go for a high street version to see the difference and to also see if it was just as good. So while I was in Boots I noticed the new Field Day range from the brand Collection, I had a little mooch and decided to go for the shade Tulip which only cost £2.99.

Collection Speedy Blush

On a recent trip to Superdrug I went to pick up my concealer and noticed they had a selection of cream blushers in a stick form and as I have wanted to try them out for a while I decided to pick one up. I went for the shade 02 Cheeky which is a bright pink tone shade which looks great when blended correctly.

The packaging is simple and cute with the colour of the product matching the colour of the packaging which makes it easy to make a selection from the small range, it also has silver writing and a silver twist area which I really like as it makes the product stand out. The scent of the product is odd as it reminds me of crayons in a way which seems odd but as it works really well I haven't let it put me off the product.
