Bourjois 'Happy Light' foundation

I have almost run out of my beloved MAC studio fix foundation do I thought I would attempt to save on buying a new one and trying a new foundation out.

I came across the Bourjois 'happy light' foundation for $29. It's actually ammaaaazing!

it gives you a beautiful dewy finish and I would say it has medium coverage. 

It lasts for a good 6 hours without breaking down and getting too oily.

I usually use my rimmel stay matte power after and this generally tends to keep it in place. 

It even works well if you mix a bit of concealer into the formula, such as the prolongwear by MAC for extra coverage and staying power.

I tend to mix my foundations between two colours such as nc25/nc30 and use either or when I'm at my whitest or darkest. 

This has been a great everyday foundation for the last 2 weeks that I have been trialling it so I would recommend it to anyone. 

On a side note it only  comes in like 4 shades. I have a really yellow undertone to my skin and found that no 53 worked best. I think the other ones were a tad pinkier.

Loreal Base Magique

I bought this primer from Priceline at the 40% off sale after hearing great reviews about it. It is actually so good and very similar to the Porefessional by Benefit. It fills in all your pores so that your skin and foundation look flawless. It also doesn't leave a oily redisue like some mother primers or feel like just another moisturizer. 

It has a relitavely thick texture but blends quite easily. 

Rimmel Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder

Such a great pressed powder ! I tend to get an oily t-zone but this powder has literally saved me! 

The shade I have is transparent so it won't alter the shade of my foundation. I think it was only about $13 at Priceline.

The packaging looks pretty cheap and nasty however it's great to carry around on the go for touch ups :)
