Nail Updates: Think Pink




Spring is here ! I decided to go for a fresh pop of colour on my nails. This is my new favourite shade OPI's Party In My Cabana. It's a gorgeous, slightly muted hot pink colour that would look great with all skin tones.

Bobbi Brown's Foundation Test

Foundation is a rather important aspect of makeup. It helps to hide redness, and dark spots, as well as even out the skin tone, creating a fresh canvas to build the rest of your makeup.
This is a simple test to figure out if your foundation suits you.
Apply a swipe of it on your cheek. Then grab a small mirror and step outside into completely natural light. Look to see if the foundation is visible. If it is hard to see on your face, your foundation works. If the swipe is obvious and visible, it's time to get a new foundation.

Choosing The Right Foundation

Oily Skin:
The best thing to look out for is a foundation with an oil-free formula. To even out redness and blotching on your skin, get the heavy formula foundation. If you wear moisturizer, use a foundation with a mattifying formula, because you don't want your face to look greasy.
Normal To Dry Skin:
Get a stick foundation or a creamy liquid foundation. When in hot, humid weather, using a liquid infused formula will make your skin look and feel better. If your skin feels dry, use a slightly heavier moisturizer.
