MAC Studio Fix Fluid Vs Estee Lauder Double Wear


I am normally a MAC girl, and have been wearing the MAC studio Fix Fluid in NW15 for a few years now, i wear this because its quite thick and gives good coverage on my skin where i have scars from spots when i was younger. But so many people have recommended the Estee Lauder Double Wear, so i decided to try it out to see what the rave was about. I got tested for my colour in the shop which turned out to be the shade 'Pure Beige', ive now been wearing it for a couple of weeks now, its not as thick as MAC but it does give really good coverage and lasts all day and night without top-ups or any powder. But at £28.50 its quite expensive for a student like me! So the MAC is a better price at £21.50. They are both 30ml, MAC is SPF 15 and Estee Lauder is SPF 10. 

So i think i will carry on using MAC for everyday use and maybe turn to Double Wear for special occasions and for going out.

Icey whites and lemon yellows

Lemon yellow is another colour that is really big this summer. Teaming it with icey white is a match made in heaven! A very summery look, which is easy to do. To complete your outfit, add a pair of tan shoes or cork wedges, for the ultimate summery look. Yellow also looks good with a       tan, if your going away or have just come back, this would be perfect for you.

Cami go mad?

Cami tops are this seasons must have, and i can see them sticking around for a while! They go with pretty much everything! To be honest ive seen them in lots of shops but the best ones tend to be from Topshop (sort of V-neck), Newlook (a little more sheer) and Riverisland. Ive got mine from Riverisland because they tend to fit my shape better and they do lots of patterns. Ive gone mad and basically got one in every colour! Topshop also do them in a cropped version which looks good with trousers or denim shorts. The normal camis look great with jeans and a statement necklace, or tucked into a midi skirt and shorts. A simple basic that costs peanuts that you can get so many uses out of, go and grab yourself some!

Gone Floral!

CANT BELIEVE, i waited until payday to get a floral blazer i had my eye on in RiverIsland for ages, and now it's not on the site anymore! So unlucky :( Owell hope is not all lost! I've been searching everywhere for a replacement, and i have come up with these, can anybody help me decide? Thinking about wearing it in the day with a black boob tube or cami top and a pair of jeans.

Barely There Heels

Every girl loves an excuse to update her shoe-drobe. Barely there heels is one the hottest trends at the moment. They are a simple shoe, in bold bright colours, perfect for the summer! They pretty much go with anything but would look amazing with a pencil midi dress or with a pair of smart leggings or jeans. These shoes are perfect for me because they're not too high and really comfortable, they can look classy or casual! These are some of my favourites from RiverIsland..
