RIMMEL WAKE ME UP foundation // review

I've been meaning to post this for a while, but have been so lazy on the blogging front so I'm sorry! I'll try my hardest to be better..
So here it is, my Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation review.

There is one major downfall to this product for me... the colour range: my sample was in 200 soft beige, which (as you can see from the photo's) makes me look... muddy. BUT apart from that it's actually a really nice drugstore foundation.

It claims to 'visibly reawaken' and 'illuminate' the skin... well, illuminate - yes I think it definitely does, the coverage is sheer to medium and it does have a lovely dewy glow to it. But 'visibly reawaken'?! Hmm not sure that's not just all talk. It also has a lovely fresh fruity smell to it (which may put off some people who are funny about putting perfumed products onto their skin) but I really like it!

For £8.99(ish) a bottle, if you can find your colour match then this foundation is really lovely... don't be put off by the overly shimmery look it has to it in the bottle, as I found that it blends out into nothing- so I'd definitely recommend as a foundation for the summer.

PS. I am wearing YSL touche eclat to add to the luminosity of this product xx

MAC Naughty Saute // LIPSTICK REVIEW

Hey girlies, today I'm doing a review on a new MAC lipstick I have from the SHOP MAC COOK MAC collection: Naughty Saute.
Naughty Saute is a cremesheen lipstick, meaning that it has a light and creamy consistency - with a little gloss, however not taking away from the pigmentation. It's really soft on the lips and feels moisturising too which makes it really long lasting... I have worn this lipstick and not had to reapply it for over 3 hours which I think is pretty darn good.
Naughty Saute is a bright, futuristic-barbie pink colour, with blue undertones - so not one for the faint hearted, but I think it's really wearable and the blue undertones are good for making your teeth look white!
I'm actually loving this colour which is quite surprising as I usually steer clear from super bright lipsticks however I think that's changing as I'm currently really wanting the 'watch me simmer' lipstick from the same collection which is a warm summery coral shade. Anyway let me know what you think and if you're lusting after this lipstick get it now! as I know the MAC cook collection is selling out FAST.
