April Favourites

 I’m still questioning how it’s already the end of April and we are going into May, MAY?
I feel like April has dragged on but then it’s only feels like the end of February a couple of days ago! But anyway, I feel like I’ve has quite a busy month as I had two weeks Easter holiday and then exams in school and it’s just whizzed by!
I feel like I haven’t has that many favourites this month however the ones I’ve included in this post have been my definite faves this month.

I’ve previsouly mentioned this foundation stick on my blog which you can read more about here. However I’ve been using this so often recently as it’s so quick to apply and gives a natural base perfect for everyday use. The foundation isn’t high coverage however gives coverage perfect for everyday and is so buildable so it doesn’t look cakey if you build the foundation up.
I love blending it out with my Real Techniques Buffing Brush as it gives the best coverage and honestly takes 30 seconds to blend out and the foundation also works so nicely with my beauty blender giving a dewy look. I have it in the shade 001 ‘Real Ivory’ which is the perfect shade for me. They don’t offer a huge range of shades however the ones they do offer are very good.
Also this foundation is only £3.99 which is an absolute bargain of a price and especially compared to other drugstore foundations which can be around £8-£12.

I’ve always had a love hate relationship with this concealer however after giving it another go and getting the right shade, I’ve been loving it at the moment. When I first tired it, I had shade 2 which was way too orange toned for me and I found it really didn’t blend in well which I think was mainly down to the wrong shade. However after getting shade 1, it’s worked so much better. I use it under my eyes to highlight and conceal which it works so well. 
I love using this under my eyes as firstly the wand is the perfect shape and size so is easy to apply right under my eyes. As well as I love the formula as it is very long lasting and doesn’t crease under my eyes at all. This is the perfect shade for me however I would say they do need a bigger shade range as there is only four shades on offer which isn’t a lot. I’ve been using it all throughout this month and I’m definitely going to be re-purchasing this as the consistency is perfect and it’s the perfect shade! And this concealer is another bargain from the drugstore of only £4.

This has been a recent purchase of mine and after seeing many people love it and having the driest skin on the planet, I thought I’d give it a go! I apply it with my fingers or sometimes my stippling brush which works really well. I find a little goes a long way and I’ve definitely noticed a difference in my makeup. My makeup does last much longer than usual as I had much more coverage in my makeup by the end of the day than usual. Also when I take my makeup off my skin feels moisturised and hydrated which I think is all down to this primer. My skin doesn’t feel dry when underneath my makeup when I wear this so this is for sure a new firm favourite for me!
