Hiatus Over - I Got My Mojo Back!

Evening ladies! 

You may or may not have realised, but it's been a massive 3 weeks since I last posted. I guess with everything that I had going on; leaving University etc all became a little too much for me and blogging unfortunately had to take a backseat. However, I am now 100% happy with my decision and overall a happier and less stressed person. So here I am, ready to get back into the swing of things... Finally! :) 

I'll leave this post short & sweet and just include a simple FOTD picture which I took only yesterday before starting work. With the warmer weather I've really been embracing being able to wear a little less makeup, keeping my eyes very simple and opting for a warm bronzey glow on my cheeks...

Products Used...

MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation NC35

Maybelline Falsies Mascara

MAC MSF Natural - Deep Dark (Contour)

MAC MSF - Golden Lariat (Cheeks)

MAC Angel worn on my lips

I hope you've all been enjoying this beautiful weather we've been experiencing, it's been a good excuse to get the roof down off my car and turn up the Summery tunes!

Lots of Love

Wonder Woman FOTD ♥

So as I'm sure you're all more than aware, the MAC Wonder Woman Collection went on general sale on MAC counters just yesterday.. 

Since receiving the products which I had on my wish list from my sister on her return from New York, I've been totally loving them all :) 

I thought I'd show you all a quick FOTD of me wearing a couple of the products I picked up!

As my base I used my usual MAC Studio Fix Fluid

On my cheeks I have the 'Golden Lariat' MSF from the WW collection.. Here I have literally just swirled my MAC 168 around the 3 colours in the pan to give me this gorgeous golden glow. I really love the highlight aspect to the MSF, it's just so pretty! I feel this product will be amazing for summer and works so well with a tan! I can't wait to take it on holiday with me :)

I'm wearing the 'Emancipation' Lipglass on my lips, along with a touch of Myth from MAC which tones down the shimmer in the gloss just a touch. I really am loving MAC Lipglasses at the minute, they're turning into a new obsession of mine, so if you have any recommendations I'd love to hear them!

On my eyes I'm wearing 2 sets of the 'Katy' lashes from my False Lash Company 'Styleyes Lashes' - These lashes are perfect for a natural every day look if you just wear one pair at a time, but double them up and they're perfect for a glamorous night time eye! We also also have a special offer on this particular style where at the moment you can purchase 10 pairs for just £2.50!! Hop on over to the website at www.styleyes-lashes.co.uk to take advantage of this amazing offer! 

I hope you're all well & are loving the products which you've picked up from WW.. What are your thoughts I'd love to know!

MAC Wonder Woman Haul ♥ .. Photo Heavy!

A few of you who have already seen the 'sneak peek' images on my Twitter account will know that my sister has been visiting NYC this past with with her University course; Fashion Communication. 

During a stop off at Amsterdam airport, waiting to catch their flight to JFK she realised that the MAC counter in the airport already had full stock of the soon to be released 'Wonder Woman' Collection. As she knew i'd been dying for the release, I got a text straight away asking what I wanted picking up as they had everything in stock! 

Needless to say, I don't think i've ever texted as quick in my life! I already had in my mind what I wanted from the collection and here is what she picked up for me :) 

All of the collection comes in Limited Edition packaging...

 

 

 I was desperate to get my hands on both of the 'JUMBO' MSF's in the collection; 'Golden Lariat' & 'Pink Power'. They really do not disappoint and are truly massive!

 Golden Lariat MSF

This has been pitched as the product for darker skin tones. It consists of three different shades; a deep coral [ideal for blush], a matte bronzer [contour shade] and also a bright shimmering gold [highlight]

All three shades are highly pigmented

This is my fingers lightly brushed over the surface of the MSF

 Pink Power MSF

Again in three distinct sections, this one I feel would be a lot more suited to those of a paler complexion - Mainly due to the lighter matte bronzer in the centre. 

The blush shade is a beautiful shimmering pink and the highlight a slightly more toned down version of the Golden Lariat. 

I decided after much deliberation that the lipsticks in the collection were just not for me and opted instead for a lipglass in the shade 'Emancipation' 

This is as you can see a gorgeous shimmery neutral pink, perfect on it's own, or over a lipstick!

This is again huge, with the tube being 10.5g instead of the usual 4.8g!

I'm totally in love already with what she managed to pick up for me :)

Keep your eyes peeled for a Wonder Woman FOTD post as i'm dying to try out all of the products properly!

What are you most looking forward to from this collection?
