Tried & Tested - NEW No7 Hydraluminous Moisturising Foundation

Although I am partial to a full coverage foundation, my heart truly remains with a light, dewy, fresh out the pool kind of look. So when No7 dropped this bad boy, I was first in line!

This foundation has everything I look for; Radiance, SPF, luminosity and a nice medium coverage. I got professionally matched in store at Boots and for the first time, the match was spot on! Calico is a perfect shade match and I was really impressed. First off, this foundation genuinely looks like a second skin... It looks stunning! There is just enough glow to look fresh and radiant, but not too much, were it will slip around and look like a greasy mess.
Another great thing about this foundation is that it is suitable for sensitive skin, which is great for acne prone skin and any skin thats sensitive to makeup. This is a perfect everyday foundation, that looks so natural and undetectable!

This has a really nice gel consistency, that blends seamlessly into the skin and really looks like it melts into your face. I tried this with a beauty blender and also with my favourite it cosmetics dual ended complexion brush and the finish is just as good with either.

The only down side about this foundation is that it is £15, which is on the little expensive side for Boots, but it is still not as expensive as some other foundations out there. This is a really good all year round foundation, great for a pop of glow in winter and a dose of radiant skin in summer. This really took me by surprise and is swiftly becoming my everyday go to.

June Empties

I can't believe another month has rolled around and it's time for another monthly empties review. I got through six products this month (I know, I'm proud) and it was a bit of a mix of everything; Haircare, Skincare and makeup. Firstly, I used up my La Roche Posay Anthelios Ultra Sensitive SPF 50 Sunscreen. This isn't my favourite SPF but it does do the job. I wear three pumps of this on my face every day and it has lasted about 3 months. I think the formula is ok it can feel a bit sticky and takes a while to sink in but it isn't my favourite but it isn't a product I don't like. I have repurchased this, because SPF is THE most important part of my skincare routine and when I ran out I knew I could run to Superdrug and repurchase this, because I did not want to go without. Secondly, I finished my Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation. I cannot remember the last time I finished a foundation! This is, without a doubt, my favourite drugstore foundation. It bl...

July Empties

 Ahhh another month another empties blog. I actually got through quite a bit of makeup this month, which is unusual for me as it's usually skincare I crank through.  The first product I used up was my beloved Glossier Futuredew. I didn't realise how much I loved this until it was gone. My makeup feels so much different without this as a base and I do miss it as part of my makeup routine. I have a few other primers to get through but I will definitely repurchase this one in the future. The second product I used was my benefit liquid eyeliner. I did like this liner; it's opaque, the felt tip is quite nice and it lasted such a long time before drying up. I do prefer brush tipped eyeliners as I find with hooded eyes my winged eyeliner always looks a lot more precise than with a pen style. So I purchased the KVD liquid eyeliner instead, but the benefit eyeliner is great just not my favourite.  My third empty is my smash box primer water. I adore this spray, it comes out as a f...

Reviewing Bioderma's Hydrabio Range

If you've followed my blog for a few years, you'll know Bioderma is one of my favourite skincare brands. Their Micellar water is a product I refuse to live without and I've gone through too many to count. I was over the moon when Bioderma kindly sent me their Hydrabio Range* to try. The Hydrabio range is aimed at combating dehydrated, dry, skin, which I'm especially prone to in winter. 1. Hydrabio Makeup Removing Micellar Water Now, Bioderma's Sensibio micellar water is a holy grail skincare product in my collection. Believe it or not, I didn't realise Bioderma did other varieties of micellar water for different skin concerns. I've been using the Hydrabio micellar water for a few days and I do find my skin feels more hydrated and plump, compared to the sensibio one. It removes makeup just as well as the Sensibio micellar water and I find the Hydrabio micellar water to be a little more gentle and soothing. I would definitely repurchase the Hydrabio version in...
