My Face!

Hey Girlies!
After having my regular browse round Boots I discovered a new (to me!) range of makeup named My Face Cosmetics. I was immediately drawn to the shelves as, on each shelf, they had makeup for fair, medium and dark toned skin! Perfect! Blushers, Lipsticks, powders etc to suit your skin tone on each shelf! Easy!
I would have loved to have bought everything on the 'fair' shelf but I managed to contain myself (and my coins in my purse) and came away with a couple of items to try out.

I was after a new lipstick but sometimes find it difficult to get the right colour for my pale complexion. I found 'Vintage Pink' which is a nude, pinkish, brown tone which is natural and gives the face a warm glow. (152)
I also purchased face powder from the fair collection just named 'Fair' and it's so pale which is perfect as I find it doesn't distort the colour of my foundation and stays put all day! I really liked the packaging with a decent sized mirror for those minor touch-ups!

I can't say this range is budget price as both the lipstick and powder cost £9.99 each but I find it is definately worth the money and will be buying these again!

You can check out their website at myfacecosmetics.com.

Anyone else tried their range? Let me know!

Collection 2000 Pressed Powder

Hey ladies,

Hope you're all having a great Thursday!
I love it when you wander round stores and end up coming back with little gems you never went in for in the first place!

This happened when I was in Asda the other day and as always I love looking at the comestics aisle! I came across a makeup range I had never really heard of before, Collection 2000.

I was in desperate need of some face powder and after seeing the super cheap price tag I thought I would give it a go.

The results I got I was really pleased with! The powder is ultra fine so easily blends into the skin without making the face look cakey or powdery and it has the added benefit of Vitamin E, UVA UVB sunscreen!

I got the palest shade (Ivory) but there are 8 other shades available to choose from to suit all types of skin tones. I didn't need to apply a lot and it controlled shine all day and kept my makeup staying put!

I have to say at such a bargain price and a range that isn't the most well known, it really exceeded my expectations. I think I may have to stock up!

Anyone else tried any Collection 2000 products? What do we think?

Love and Tickles
