31 Days of Beauty -- Day 10

31 Days of Beauty Day 10

Welcome to day 10 of 31 days of beauty. Thank you again to Priyanka over at Glamour & Giggles for coming up with this idea!

We've hit the double digits! We did it! And today we are going to be talking mascara. Specifically my favourite mascara!

So I am weird and I have a different favourite for my top and bottom lashes, because there are different things I am looking for out of my bottom and top lashes.
Lash Accelerator

For my bottom lashes I just want a little bit of definition and darkening and for that I have been using the same product for years Rimmel London's Lash Accelerator Mascara in 003 Extreme Black. It does the job and the wand is perfect for my lower lashes and that's all it takes to be my favourite apparently.


Lights, Camera, Lashes
Perversion


Now for the top lashes it's kind of a toss up between Urban Decay's Perversion and Tarte's Lights, Camera, Lashes. Really it's a combination between the two, one coat of lights, camera, lashes and then another of perversion and then my lashes are lovely and I almost feel like no falsies are required. And let's be honest, I really don't wear lashes on the daily.

Hopefully you guys are still enjoying reading these!

I'll see you next time!

31 Days of Beauty -- Day 5

31 Days of Beauty Day 5
Favourite Concealer

Welcome to day 5 of 31 days of beauty. Thank you again to Priyanka over at Glamour & Giggles for coming up with this idea! This one is a shorter one.

I have two favourite concealers, one drugstore and one higher end, the higher end one I currently do not own unfortunately but it is still a favourite.



We will start out with the drugstore concealer. Rimmel Match Perfection 2-in-1 Concealer and Highlighter in 125 Fair. I have had a super hard time finding a shade that fits me perfectly in the drugstore and it took me forever but this one does it. I use this mostly underneath my eyes and on the occasional red spot. I love how it isn't a super heavy consistency and it doesn't crease under my eyes. I do wish however that it was easier to clean as the cap gets real dirty really quickly.



The higher end one I really do love I just don't currently own it. It's the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Vanilla. I've only gotten to try this one a few times, but it made a huge impression on me. I absolutely love it and I can't wait until I can buy it.

I hope you guys are enjoying 31 Days of Beauty as much as I am!

I'll see you next time!
