Hello makeup divas !!
I suggest you hurry and run to your closest store that sells Covergirl anything because they are currently celebrating Covergirl's 50th birthday and places like Target to Woolworths are having the same sale.
So the other day i picked up the Covergirl foundation that is mixed with olay cream as well as the concealer and all i can say is that these are the most creamiest products i have ever touched in my life ! I picked up both products for under $20 which was a bargain and ive worn them for the past 4 days and i am in loveee <3 !!
Id always seen these but never really stopped to look at it until i saw Dulce Candy on youtube talk about them and thats why i actually stopped to take a look, and along with the 50% off price tag it was a win win situation for me..May i also add, i bought the Lash Blast Fusion mascara (as i like to call it, "The Orange Mascara") for less than $7 from Target.
The foundation has medium coverage which is perfect for everyday and it just makes you look so fresh and alive and evens out your skin tone so well. The fact that it has a moisturiser in the foundation means that ive actually skipped moisturising my face in the morning because the foundation has so much in the actual product. I set mine with a powder because i am a freak for matte foundation but i actually dont hate the thought of not mattifying this one. Once this foundation dries, it leaves a smooth, healthy and glowy feel to your face and its just soo pretty. The concealer too is creamy and gorgeous and they both work really well together and id say this concealer would be medium to heavy coverage cause its easy to layer this one without looking all cakey. However, i did pick up the concealer which is a shade too dark for me, so im thinking while the sale is still on, ill get one thats 2 shades too light for me and if i mix them i like to think it will end in perfection :)
Until next time,
keep on playing around with your makeup and let me know of any new discoveries !

Makeup for Passport photos
Hey everyone,
So today i went to take my passport photo and i wasnt too sure how much makeup i was allowed to wear so i just wore a wingled eyeliner, loads of mascara and brozer.
I then saw my photo and freaked out and inststed on taking another photo cause i looked ugly but the guy just looked at me and walked away and said my photo was fine lol so mean !
Here are my tips ill definately be paying attention to when my passport expires in 10 years haha
1. apply a foundation that wont wash you out and one that is made for photography, ie. HD foundations or something like Revlon Photo Ready (my personal fave :))
2. countour contour contour !! Use a matte bronzer to contour your face and make sure you pack that on because flash photography takes away about 30% of the intensity of makeup, so a simple solution is add 30% more makeup ! Contour your cheeks to perfection and make them even because your passport photo is taken head on and contour along your nose to stop your nose being washed out of the photo.
3. eyeshaddow in your crease is definately a necessity just to add some defintion to your face.
4. winged eyeliner just adds that little extra length to your eyes and makes your face appear slimmer
5. false lashes !! i know it sounds silly, but it will help and look gorgeous (nothing to wacky and crazy, just a bit of length)
6. coloured lips: anything bright like pink and reds will stand out or darker colours will really make your lips pop in the photo.
7.because your hair must be up and out of your face, style your fringe to stay the way youd like it instead of having to pin in back last minute and therefore making your photo look poopie cause most of the time you will be unhappy with it (like me !). I had to pin my fringe back and i pinned it in the wrong place and i look horrendous !
8. I forgot to mention a blush, something warm toned will come out better.
That is it ! Hope this helps, if only i had read a blog post like this before i went, it wouldve been a life saver !
Good Luck
Love Suzie xxxx
