Testing products #FOTD

It's Monday guys and girls, and that means it's time to get back to blogging business. I've been a terrible blogger in the last few days and I promise that my *genuine* excuse will be revealed soon - pinky. It's a good 'en. Anyway, I'm having teething problems today. My wisdom tooth is kicking up such a fuss in my mouth that it appears my throat and neck are staging a protest. I feel like I'm hosting a golf ball under my chin and that's never a great look on anyone. Fact. 

To cheer myself up, I decided to slap on a full face of makeup - justified by the fact that I'm going to venture out to the pharmacy for sympathy and also because I'm road testing Chanel's Vitalumiere Foundation. As it stands, I'm not sold, but I'm giving it a few cracks of the whip before passing final judgement. Anyhow, let's have a look at what's going on face-wise shall we?



First things first, it is nigh on impossible to take decent pictures now that the Finnish sun has decided to hibernate. Now I know why everyone keeps telling me I need to stock up on vitamin D tabs! So I do apologise for the less than illuminated picturegraphs. Perhaps I need to make that big blogging step and invest in a mega watt lamp? Okay, face (I've linked up products to past reviews where applicable, these appear in pink) :

- MAC Prep & Prime CC Creme in Illuminate on cheeks and forehead

- Chanel Vitalumiere Foundation 

- YSL Touche Eclat 2 under eyes 

- Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish Pressed Powder in No5 Soft Sand

- Makeup Revolution|I Heart Makeup Blushing Hearts Blusher in Peachy Keen

- Inglot Eye Shadow Shade 30 on lids and under arch of brow and Shade 421 in the crease (Blended)

- Makeup Revolution Awesome Double Flick Liquid Eyeliner on upper lash line

- Benefit Bad Gal Waterproof Eye Liner in Black on lower lash line

- MAC Opulush Mascara in Bad, Bad Black 

- Maybelline Master Shape Brow Pencil in Deep Brown

- Maybelline Brow Drama Sculpting Brow Mascara in Dark Brown
