So (not so) recently I went to Tenerife and I bought quite a bit of makeup which I've decided to review for you today; To start with I purchased the
Clarins Instant Concealer;
I purchased this in the lightest shade as even though I was fairly tanned I always like my concealer to be lighter (I know some hate this but concealer that's the same shade always looks odd on me). I found this concealer was okay for under the eyes however it worked perfectly on my blemishes and spots (I bought this just before I had a major break out and it was awesome at hiding it) I don't think you need a lot of product and it's a thick but more dewy texture so it doesn't feel drying at all (I suffer with awful dry skin.) I use this concealer with a real techniques brush (one which comes in the core set and looks like a highlighting brush) and buff it in and I think it blends really well. I reccomend buying as it's deffinately worth the money (£21.50)
Chanel Vitalumiere Foundation
This foundation I bought purely because I'd wanted to try it and I was finally a shade dark enough for it to match me (this foundation is very limited on shades). I loved this foundation whilst I was on holiday, it was so sheer yet dewy it gave me such a glow which I really liked, I found that it lasted around 6 hours (without powder which I will explain in another blog if you want) I feel as if you use powder it would last longer and maybe not come off as easily. The shade was a good match and it blended very easily which I liked. The coverage wasn't that good but as I had a tan I didn't need a heavy full coverage foundation;as this foundation is quite dewy I wouldn't reccomend for oily skin as I think it would just slip and slide over your face however it works well for dry skin. For the price (£36) I reccomend getting a sample first just because it may not work with your skin type and you may not like the coverage, however I really like it the coverage is very buildable and you can most deffinately layer it.
