Good afternoon BeYOUties, I have just returned home from my hols and as soon as I sorted out the wifi nonsense, I couldn't help but post for you! Today I wanted to write about something which I would love to do more on my blog, I hope you guys like it as this is what my blog should be all about in the beauty genre.
Want to shop the little gems that perfected my face? This could be your next wishlist... Recreate this look now!
First the face:
1) Benefit stay flawless 15 hour primer - smooths skin and really does last for ages especially when at the beach
2)Rimmel Wake me up foundation (100 Ivory)- matches my very light skin tone and blends well, has the all important SPF which protects my face from the harsh sun on the beach
3) Collection lasting perfection concealer (01 light)- extremely affordable and lightens skin but still disguises blemishes
4)Rimmel clear complexion powder- helps makeup to stay on but doesn't look too obvious
5) Rimmel stay matte powder (01 transparent) - to help the sweat from the summer heat remain under control
6) Real techniques base brush- have been using this holy grail for years, love it to pieces!
7) Claire's powder brush- Not technically a powder brush but works well for getting every patch of my face powdered.

Secondly the raised parts (if you like) of your face:
1) Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick (no.38)-typical summery salmon shade which layers well and lasts
2) Too Faced sweetheart blush (something about berry)- I like the 3 different shades and the touch of sparkle
3)Benefit high beam highlighter- gives my face a healthy glow especially for the beach
4)Too faced Ross and Rachel bronzer- compact for your beach bag and has a red undertone so allows a naturally tanned face even for the lightest of skin tones.
5) Soap and Glory Peach Party highlighter-beautiful gold glowing shimmer which looks gorgeous when on the apples of the cheeks. The highlighter has a wheel of shades so looks very healthy on the face if you swirl your brush around.
6) Fearne Cotton blush brush-good sized brush for my cheeks, looks lovely and doesn't shed hairs when in use

Thirdly the main part of the makeup look, the eyes:
1) Nars duo cream eyeshadows- 2 dramatic blue shades but you can make them work and they look stunning if they are applied and blended well. Perfect for travel and last all day
2) Kath Kidston eye brush- gentle brush hairs, good for blending cream eyeshadows without getting clogged up, good size
3) eyeko skinny liquid eyeliner (black)- nice sized applicator and glides fairly well. I use it over the glue of the false eyelashes
4)Fearne Cotton inner corner eye brush- easy to use and collects a good amount of eyeshadow despite the small head. I used this to make my eyes appear brighter along with white eyeshadow and it works well over the blue tones too
5)Too faced a la mode palette- I used the shades "la Croisette" and "De la Mer" for this look. This palette has been my "summer go to" palette nearly ever single day for 2 months.The shades and pigmentation are unmistakably high quality and last well making them suitable for the Beach. I could go on about this palette for ages, it was scary at first with all the bright shades but I feel so confident that I can pull them off now.

5) Urban decay naked 3 brush- this brush came with my naked 3 palette but I love using it so much, it practically goes with me everywhere, yes including the beach!
6)benefit stay don't stray primer(light/medium, travel sized) I don't know what I'd do without this little guy. My eyeshadow sticks to it like glue and doesn't budge, I'd be happy this wouldn't cease to amaze me even at the beach
7) benefit browzings- I love the mini kit feel of this compact, the shades blend and apply well and your eyebrows are on fleek when finished with this
8) Tanya Burr fake eyelashes (Pretty Lady)- supper fluttery and stay on well
9) Benefit Roller Lash Mascara- the hype did it justice, everyone seems to know about the roller lash mascara and you should be no different. If this is not proudly sitting I. Your makeup drawer, you are missing out!
I hope you recreate this look and enjoy wearing it , even if you're not at the beach, I'd love to hear about it ! You could try it and alter the products too.
Keep your eye on a the post coming soon ....
Love always
