Hello!

Seeing as we are in spring I thought I'd share with you the everyday makeup I have been wearing, all cruelty free of course.

My skin is starting to clear up a bit, and seeing as it is spring I don't feel the need for a full coverage foundation. So I have just been mixing a bit of my MUA foundation with some moisturiser and using it as a BB cream, it's so simple and effective and still gives you a little coverage. Sometimes I use my Real Techniques Buffer Brush and sometimes I just use my fingers, all depends on how I feel.

Under my eyes I put some Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer which I find brightens my under eye and covers my bags so well. On my blemishes I put the Miss Sporty Perfect Stay concealer which covers the red areas really well. I use a damp Real Techniques Beauty Blender the majority of the time of my fingers I don't really care.

For my eyebrows I use the W7 Brow Parlour Grooming Set which is amazing, it comes with a little brush to apply the eyebrow powder (there are two shades, I use the darkest one) Then I put the wax on top with my finger and comb through them with the other little brush you get, I cannot remember what it's called!

The Collection Contour Kit is my personal favourite contour. I apply it to the hollows of my cheekbones with a flat brush and then blend it out with my Real Techniques Angled Brush. I also put some on the outer section of my forehead, down the sides of my nose to make it look smaller and on my jawline.

For blusher I use the W7 The Cheeky Trio, which is a really nice pink shade, using my Real Techniques Blusher Brush to pop it on. Then on my cheekbones with the Revolution Angled Brush goes the highlighter you get with it, I also put it down the bridge of my nose and on my cupids bow.

For my eyes I don't wear eyeshadow so I'm really sorry I can't help you out with that, search spring eye makeup looks online and I'm sure you will find some lovely ones. However I do use the W7 Lashtastic False Liquid Lashes on my eyelashes to make them look a little thicker.

My lips vary day to day, however I have been wearing the NYX Butter Gloss in Cannes, it's a beautiful sort of brown undertoned pink. I'm not the best at describing colours so I recommend you search it, but it is absolutely beautiful (UK people you can get it from Boots or Feel Unique) It may not seem like s spring colour but it's absolutely gorgeous and can be built up/you could wear different colours over the top.

There we are, my go to spring makeup look. It's perfect for everyday, and you could work it up for the evening as well if you want too.
