Benefit Foundation Review for Darker Skin Tones

Hellooo my Beauties!!
I want to share with you my new beauty obsession ..Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow and Hello Flawless Powder

I never thought I would say this, as I was never really into Benefit Make up...I always seen my self as a Mac Queen but I have to say that I absolutely LOVE this foundation.

I brought it in Westfield Stratford Boots and brought both the foundation and the powder for around £25 for each.

I definitely think it is an investment simply because I really do not need to re apply during the day. I would say it honestly last for aprox 8 hours with the powder finish on top. I am VERY impressed with these products and especially because I am a darker tone I didnt expect Benefit Makeup to cater for me.

The lady gave me hazelnut which is the shade before the darkest, and by looking at it I didnt expect it to suit me but once it was applied, i was sold. It blended in well with my tone, easy to apply and gives a light to medium coverage. It is buildable if you want a fuller look especially if you are using the powder but I only see this as a day look as I would prefer something heavier if I was going to a party probably like Mac Studio Fix.

Sometimes i wear my Mac Concealer underneath it depending on where I am going.

Overall I give this product 9/10 and I will defiantly be buying it again

They're Real Benefit Mascara Pics

THEY ARE REAL!!!

Hey all just wanted to show you the pictures from using the Benefit They're Real Mascara.

It was £18.50 from the Benefit Counter in Boots, Westfield Stratford

Soooo this is me before mascara

annnd this is me after

I really LoVe this Mascara, the length and fullness is great. The only thing is, when i put it on, because my eyelashes touch the top of my eyelids, I end up with black dots of residue around my eyes!!

Overall for me 8/10

Maybelline Fit Me Foundation Review

I have seen the hype about the new maybelline Fit Me range and I wouldnt have been interested if it was not for my sister. I find the Maybelline range for darker skin tones not so fascinating however I may now be converted.

The shades for darker girls are 350 and 355. It comes in a concealer, liquid foundation and powder however I just tried the foundation by itself. 

I would give this product a 7/10. It gives good coverage, its buildable, long lasting and is a great price. My only issue was that I found it too shiny by itself, maybe I should try the powder aswell. Its definitively worth a try.x

10 Ways to dress like a Female BOSS!

You know when some one enters your work place and says (with a shocked face) "OH are YOU the manager??" 

*Rolls eyes* - I HATE IT!!!!!

So, after receiving the 'shocked face' so many times I knew it was time to up my game...and it all started with my WARDROBE!! Theses are the few changes I made to make my presence known as a BOSS, and not only has it helped me with my working relationships but also in general public, like making a complaint.
I know it seems minor, but we got to face facts people.....IMAGE IS EVERYTHING

1. LIPSTICK

Lipstick is a good way to show you mean business. Only bold and confident people can wear lipstick and pull it off. I would opt for a good quality one that would last you most of the day because you do not have time to keep topping up. I would suggest strong and darker colors like red or deep raspberry rather than pastel pink because, well, pink is not professional is it?

2. HIGH HEELS

How many business people do you see in flat shoes?...hardly any! and there is a good reason for this because in heels, there is power! lol Ok not magical powers but they hold status and credibility  If you can walk around for 8 hours in a pair of heels.....you get ratings. Also it gives off a perception of professionalism and sophistication. Now ladies, there is no need to run out and buy yourself a pair of red bottom shoes, but quality does matter because it can determine how comfortable you are in them. Also they do not have to be 6 inches, even a kitten heel will do..as long as they are not FLAT! (Straight face)

3. DITCH THE HOOD

Wearing hoods is a no no for me, I dont care how much the coat cost there is no coat I would wear to work as a BOSS that has a hood on it. Try coats with fur collars or chunky knit collars to keep warm in the winter, To avoid the rain, use an umbrella, preferably those long golf ones if you can be bothered to carry it. Blazers are the way to go in the spring/summer months.

4. NAIL CARE

Half chipped nail polish is not a good look and trust me people always notice your hands and nails. There is no need to go and professionally get your nails done, if your a DIY girl then just keep an eye on how your hands are looking. Again, no wild colors, neutral colors are best

.

5. SHIRTS

Shirts are the way to go, and you can always tell when someone is wearing a good quality shirt. Be carefull with the fit, you do not want it popping open at the seams when you are sitting down. A fitted or loser shirt could be ideal. Everyone should invest in a classic white shirt, which you can wear with practically anything.

6. PENCIL SKIRTS AND TAILORED TROUSERS

Pencil skirts are super sexy and smart, as with tailored trousers. Skirts are nice in the warmer months, team with a shirt or peplum top and your good to go. Jeans and mini skirts - leave for the weekend.

7. LOSE THE MATCHING WOOLLY SCARF AND HAT

Woolly doesn't really make the final cut for me to be honest. Leather gloves, floppy hats and shawls are a more sophisticated option in the winter seasons. They will still keep you warm and probably last a little bit longer.

8. The Bag

Go for satchel/briefcase style bags (they look like your carrying something important lol). Oversize bags can work too. Again go for a quality one for longer durability and it will also look better

9. Get a Watch

Watches are lovely accessories to wear without over doing it. Any watch will do....as long as its not plastic....need I say more?

10. Get great underwear!!!!

Yes confidence and feeling great starts underneath your clothes! invest in good quality underwear! its something I always say to my friends..get measured and start wearing the correct bra size. If you have a gap where the bra is supposed to sit in between your boobs then its the wrong size. If your bra rides up at the back....its the wrong size. if you wear the correct underwear, it provides a great base for what ever clothes you put on, making you look even more fab.xxxx

The Kardashian Kollection HYPE

Ok ladies so its here the Kardashian Kollection for Dorothy Perkins..sounds great doesn't it? yay lets dress like the kardashians ......but is it really what we have been waiting for??

As Christmas is coming up, I will be partying hard (standard) so my friend suggested I check out the Kardashian Kollection for a new dress...hmm ok I will have a butchers... I really did not know to expect when looking through the collection online..but what I do know is that I was not overley impressed. 

Yes I know the sisters are in their 30's but comon, the range just looks soo dated (and 30 is not old at all), you know one of them ones where the clothes will probably only look good on themselves lol. YES.. you look hot..WHY...well erm because your Kim Kardashian....you ALWAYS look hot??

I did not find one thing that I even liked!! Ok maybe I'm being a bit harsh, I did find a few bits and bobs that I found remotely credible but overall it really is not my style at all. 

Let me know what you all think about it..
