BLACK & BLANC: Bronzer

Bronzer

What's the next BIG THING in the make up industry you ask? It's 'Mai Couture' with their papier make-up! Yes, you heard me make-up on paper. It's a crazy yet a cool concept that surprisingly no one has ever thought of before, making it original & exclusive. This company is based on making your life a whole lot simpler when it comes to make-up application. Not only have they made make-up lightweight & easy to carry on the go but they've also created a more sanitised way of applying make-up. You simply tear a sheet, apply it and 'toss' it in the bin. The make-up papiers are paraben and talc free leaving your skin unharmed.

Left to Right: Fair Glow, Nude Glow & Gorgeous Glow flawless foundation papier

The first papier make-up is their 'Flawless Foundation' which comes in 3 shades to match everyone's complexion. The shades are 'fair-glow', 'natural-glow' and 'golden-glow'. To apply this all you need is a sheet and your hands! Simply sweep the sheet over your face for a matte foundation finish. What I love about this is that it's perfect for those (like myself) who can't stand the feeling of foundation on their face and prefer lightweight powders & concealers.

Left to Right: St Barts Highlighting papier & Crystal Cove Highlighting papier

The next make up product is probably my favourite 'highlighters'! I honestly can't get over them, like seriously how did I do my make-up before discovering highlighters? Their highlighter's come in the shades 'St Barts' and 'Crystal Cove'. The highlighters add a beautiful glow to the skin with their finely milled shimmers making it perfect for everyday wear.

Top to Bottom: Prettyful, Sicily, Sunset Blvd & Montecito Blush papier

Now if I'm totally honest with you guys, I'm not a blush person, the slightest thought of going 'over the top' with blusher scares me. However, after receiving four of their blushes I forced myself to give them a little try. Boy was I surprised... I'm in love with the blush papier in 'Sunset Blvd'. It adds a healthy flush & glow to your skin without being too in your face!

Left to Right: Like a diamond trio & Glow-geous trio papiers

Last but not least is their trios, 'Like a diamond trio' and 'Glow-geous trio'. Not only have Mai Couture made carrying and applying make up on the go a whole lot easier & lighter but they've also created a trios with a blush, bronzer & highlighter making your life even simpler! In the 'Like a diamond trio' there is a highlighter in Crystal cove, a blush in Studio city and another blush in Sunset Blvd. The 'Glow-geous trio' comes with a bronzer in Sin city, a blush in Prettyful and a highlighter in St Barts.

Everyday Make up Routine

So I thought I would do my everyday make up routine since I absolutely love watching these on YouTube I thought I would recreate my own 'drug store edition' on my blog!

I've been using the Nivea crème as my daily moisturiser since 2011 and I am still obsessed with it! You guys know how much I love this brand I mean I dedicated my first blog post to Nivea! I use Vaseline on my lips to target any chapped lips as it helps them heal instantly.

Next I go in with my concealer this is from 'Natural Collection' which is exclusive to boots. This is in the shade 'Fair' and I use my faux beauty blender to blend it all in creating a flawless base.

I then set my concealer with again the 'Natural Collection' pressed powder in the shade 'Warm' using the brushes I mentioned in my Beauty Favourites.

Now contouring, bronzing and highlighting has made it pretty huge this year. I'm currently using this Superdrug own brand bronzer (which I kinda sorta borrowed/stole off my Mom Oops!)you can tell how much I love it. I use a angled brush for this as it fits in to the hollows of my cheeks perfectly.

Time for highlighting, this is probably my most favourite part of my make up routine I mean who doesn't like a good highlight? I'm using the 'Gorgeous Glow' highlighting palette from Collection. I use a flat top brush for this to lightly dust the powder over the tops of my cheek bones and down my nose.

That's my base all set and complete now it's time for eyes and lips! For my eyes I usually just curl my lashes simply because mascara takes way to long to take off!I then tight line my eyes with some Kohl eye liner and that's the eyes done. I then brush through my brows with a spoolie brush.

I've recently been loving the muted dark toned pinks this season despite the fact that it's winter. This is a lip liner by Essence in the shade 'Soft Berry' which I showed you in my Holiday Haul.

That's it! I hope you guys enjoyed my make up routine-drug store edition. Sorry for all the waffling it's hard to describe what you do to your face everyday with just a keyboard.
