Laura Mercier Candleglow Foundation.

Recently I had a sample for the Laura Mercier Candleglow foundation and purchased the full size because of how good my first impressions were.
It's has quite a moose like consistency and feels very creamy when it's being applied. It has a fairly decent coverage and is definitely buildable, but doesn't leave the skin feeling heavy or tacky at all. It's incredibly dewy also which I love! The shade I have is such a good match for me and they have a huge variety of shades to suit everyone.

The packaging is so sleek and for the few times that I've used it I'm super impressed.

Have you used any Laura Mercier foundations before? I hope you enjoyed reading,

Violet Voss Holy Grail


The other day the Violet Voss Holy Grail Palette came back into stock on Beauty Bay and I snapped it up within minutes. My sister and I decided to half the cost and share the palette because I have a fair few palettes.

I've heard all the hype around this palette so was excited to try it out for myself when it arrived and I am so impressed. I haven't used all of the shades yet, however 'toffee' and 'poof' are already firm favourites. The pigmentation of the shades is so good, comparable to MAC and urban decay and they are so easy to blend. I found the foiled eyeshadow took a little more work than the ordinary ones, but aside from that they blend really easily and have a buttery consistency.

The shade range is fab and the paler shades are so perfect for brow bone/inner corner highlight. My sister has claimed the bottom right hand two shades because I won't wear those deep red shades as I don't think they suit me, but the rest I will definitely wear and I am excited to uncover lots of combinations.

This palette is seriously beautiful and I am so glad I got my hands on it. Im looking forward to creating lots of looks and will definitely purchase from Violet Voss again!

Have you tried anything from them?

I hope you enjoyed reading,
