Concealer Boi-ing Review

About three months ago I had a make over at my local benefit counter and one of the products I treated myself to was the Benefit Boi-ing in shade 01. Even though I was fully impressed with the make over and the concealer it has just occurred to me that I had put it away in my make up case and has never been used, until now! Not being very make up savvy it wasn't until I had another make up tutorial at a MAC counter that I was told that it is best to use concealer around the eyes rather than foundation. Oopsie! So now I have dug out my Benefit concealer and I am yet again amazed with the results.

The before shot (ignore the untamed eyebrows!) all I have on my skin is a Garnier Moisturiser and Soap and Glory You Won't Believe Your Eyes.

After shot - although this is my other eye, there is definitely no difference in my skin without the concealer. I have to say it definitely does what it says on the box! The slight dark circle has disappeared, it gives me an even skin tone around my eye and covers up some of the finer freckles!

Final Comments - As you can see from the pictures the concealer definitely does it's job and I have found even when I have finished university the concealer is still on! I've also been told from a friend that with daily use the product easily lasted her 3 months so for £16.50 that's only £5.50 a MONTH for this amazing product! I've also find that if I'm having an iffy day that dabbing a little on my t zone gives me perfect coverage for them lazy day.

Final comment part 2 - Go and buy it! 

Make up bag

Not long ago I posted a daily make up post and in a month a lot has definitely changed! Not only have I upgraded my bag and but also my make up (Yet again!).

Even though I adore the packaging on Benefit products I've found that for exactly the same price you can purchase better quality, longer stay products! Definitely recommend popping to your nearest MAC counter and grabbing a sample of a foundation! This said, I'm not completely leaving Benefit behind, I still have the odd products that I cannot live without.

An updated photo and post shall be coming soon on my opinions on MAC.

Daily Makeup

For weeks I've been contemplating writing a make up post, except every morning when I'm getting ready I can just never find the time to take a couple of quick photos! However today I've had a lazy day and thought no I'm going to finally write a post for my dear followers!

Some people just wear eyeliner and mascara for their eye make up and believe that the smokey eye look is only suitable for the night or going out. However I've recently been watching the new season of glee and I have to say I love Rachel Berry's eye make up! (Yes I'm a gleek!) So that has kind of inspired me to try something new and go for her look!
