Trial Run: Holiday Makeup

Hi everyone, I hope you're all well and are enjoying the Great British sunshine while it lasts! Firstly, I must apologise for the serious lack of posts recently. My college work has been coming in thick and fast and I also had an opportunity to apply to university, so I've been typing like a mad woman trying to get everything done. Happily, my college portfolio has been handed in and my application has been sent off, so now it's just a waiting game. 

Last week I popped into Superdrug for a browse and ended up coming out with a few products I thought would be nice for my holiday at the end of this month. I bought a GOSH Forever metallic eyeshadow stick in 02 beige, Collection eyeshadow pencil in hot chocolate and Collection Bronze Glow bronzer in light. With these products I thought I'd create a quick makeup look I think will be perfect for the warm Turkish evenings. I also dug out an Estee Lauder lipstick I forgot I owned to compliment the look, along with my usual makeup staples. 

I love this look as the neutral colours really make my blue eyes pop and the eyeshadow sticks are super easy and convenient to use! I like how the bronzer makes my skin look more sunkissed and the lipstick adds a bit of interest without being in your face.

Eyes: GOSH Forever metallic eyeshadow stick in 02 beige, Collection eyeshadow pencil in hot chocolate, Benefit Badgal Lash mascara and Benefit boi-ing concealer

Face: Bourjois 123 Perfect CC Cream in light beige, Lily Lolo Mineral Blush in rosy apple and Collect Bronze Glow bronzer in light

Lips: Estee Lauder Pure Colour Lipstick in Pinkberry


Are you off anywhere nice on holiday? What makeup will you be packing?
