Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso Reviewed

Hey beaut's!

I keep seeing Milani makeup everywhere at the moment and something that keeps catching my eye are their gorgeous blushes, I think I now have about 5 of their blushes on my wishlist but the first one I had to give a whirl is the ever so popular Baked Blush in Luminoso.

Milani's Luminoso comes housed in a gold mirrored compact which has a flip-up compartment under the blush itself revealing a handy mirror and mini brush perfect for travelling and any on the go applications. Now lets get down to the juicy stuff... the actual blush... Luminoso is such a pretty peach toned pink shade with a gorgeous luminous sheen that looks perfect on the cheeks for Spring and Summer, it's so healthy looking and dewy without being glittery or sparkly in the slightest. Formula wise it's nice, because it's a baked powder it's incredibly finely milled and has such a soft, smooth texture with medium pigmentation which I favour because it allows me wear the blush softer some days or I can build it up for a more intense pop of colour. Lasting power is great too, the colour and luminous sheen stays put on my skin most of the day without fading, going patchy or sticking to dry patches, the only downside I have is that the blush can be a little powdery/dusty when I pick it up on my brush but it's nothing 'tapping off the excess' wont fix so it's not a major for me.

Overall I bloody love this blush and I can now see why it's so popular, it adds the prettiest flush to my cheeks and I love the fact it has that luminous sheen to it without all the glitter because I hate glittery blushes. Luminoso looks so dewy and healthy and screams Spring and Summer to me, trust me beaut's you need this bad boy in your makeup bag pronto, I think it would suit most skin tones too.

3 Makeup Products To Try From Just My Look

Hey beaut's!

Just My Look is UK based website that I know loads of you beauty loving gals are going to love, theres so many brands to shop and choose from like Sleek, Urban Decay and theBalm, as well as some brands that are harder to find in the UK such as L.A. Girl and Milani which really impressed me as I've been after Milani makeup for such a long time, if that wasn't good enough they also offer free delivery on all UK orders no matter how much you spend and same day dispatch when you order before 2pm, how good is that? I've been giving three products a whirl from the site that I've been after a while and after testing them out I think you all NEED them in your makeup bags!

Seeing as I'd been after trying some makeup from Milani I decided to go for the ever so popular Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso* (£9.95). This is such a pretty blush and I can now see why it's so popular, it's a peachy orange shade with a gorgeous luminous sheen that looks perfect on the cheeks for Spring and Summer, it's so healthy looking a dewy without being glittery or sparkly. Formula wise it's nice, it has a soft, smooth texture, medium pigmentation which I love because I can wear it softer some days and more intense on others, it is a little powdery/dusty when I pick the blush up on my brush but nothing 'tapping off the excess' wont fix and it stays put on my skin most of the day without fading. I can see myself getting so much use out of this little beauty and the blush flips up to reveal a brush and mirror underneath making it great for travelling too.

Something else that's been high on my wish list for quite some time is the L.A. Girl Concealer in Porcelain* (£3.95). This concealer is again really raved about in the beauty world but I found the shade Porcelain quite hard to come across, I remember looking for it a while ago and couldn't find it but Just My Look have a whopping 27 shades to choose from including their colour correcting shades which is pretty impressive. Porcelain is the lightest shade within the collection, it's fair with yellow undertones and really brightens my under eye area as well as concealing at the same time which is just what I look for in an under eye concealer. Formula wise.. its creamy and easy to blend, with a medium-full buildable coverage and leaves a semi-matte finish that stays put really well, once this concealer has set that's it, theres no budging it, which again is just what I look for in a concealer because I don't want that bad boy to move or crease throughout the day. Overall I bloody love this concealer, I'd highly recommend Porcelain if your looking for a bright under eye concealer that covers, brightens and stays well, I want to get a couple of the other shades too for my blemishes and for contouring too because the formula is just lush.

Just My Look also have lots of Sleek Makeup to shop and seeing as I love their highlighting palettes so much I just had to get another shade to play with, Cleopatra's Kiss* (£9.95). Cleopatra's Kiss contains four highlighting shades in total, two of which are luxurious creams and the other two are velvety soft powders. All four shades are within the golden, bronzed realm and oh my goodness they send me into glowing, highlighter heaven, their stunning! If your into super intense highlighter then you'll love this palette as well as Sleeks other highlighting palettes, they deliver such a radiant glow and luminous polish to the skin, even my higher end highlighter have nothing on these, their incredible.

Have you tried any of these products beaut's? What did you think? I'd love to know!

January Favourites ♥

Hey girlie's!!!

I cant quite believe its that time again.... Monthly favourites time!!! How has the start 2014 been for you all??? I honestly cant believe how quick the time is going already, its crazy... Anywhoo today I thought I would share with you all my favourite beauty products I've been loving throughout January... So here goes.

Urban Decay 'Naked 3' Palette

Without a doubt the NAKED 3 Palette has been my ultimate January favourite, I've been using the palette everyday since I received it at Christmas as its just perfect for everyday wear and the shades are just so beautiful. You can check out my full review of this palette here.

Milani Sunset Duo's Blush & Bronzer in Sunset Breeze

I actually received this duo as a gift back in the summer last year from my friend Harriet (please check out her blog and show her some love he he) and I have recently rekindled my love for it again. The bronzer part of this duo is completely matte so its been great to use for contouring and to generally give me a nice healthy looking glow in this dull horrible weather we have in the UK at the moment, Ive also been loving the little blush part of this duo too, it's got micro glitter particles running through it so I have to use it sparingly but it gives me a nice pop of colour on the cheeks which I love.

Urban Decay Supercurl Curling Mascara

Again, like the NAKED 3 Palette this Urban Decay Mascara was another Christmas present that I've become obsessed with using. It's one of those all rounder mascara's that does everything I want and need from a mascara, it lengthens, curls, separates, theres no flaking or smudging and it doesn't budge all day, it's just perfect!!! You can check out my full review of this little beauty here.

B.Quick 4-in-1 Cleansing Wipes

I bought these wipes on a whim as they where on a half price offer, and now I absolutely love them. I only use them in the mornings just to give my skin abit of a refresh from cleansing properly the night before but they make my skin feel so clean and soft and most importantly they don't irritate my sensitive skin or make my eyes sore which most wipes do apart from the Simple ones.

Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub

 I'm a massive Soap & Glory fan but surprisingly I hadn't tried their Sugar Crush brand until just recently and the Body Scrub in particular is amazing. It's crammed full of smashed brown sugar and macadamia grains and exfoliates the skin amazingly, Its also really zingy and fresh which I love using in the mornings to wake me up abit and make me feel all refreshed.
