Benefit Cosmetics - Boi ing Concealer Review

Hi beauties,

Happy weekend! All I can say is phew - we made it! I've been waiting all day to snuggle in my duvet and write this post for you guys.

So I'm keeping to my promise and talking about something other than foundations today :o) On my quest for flawless skin, I wanted to explore concealers and on doing some research came across a fair few reviews for this little beauty! Benefit Boi ing Concealer is described as industrial-strength and I had high hopes that this would sort out my under eye bags and blemishes. A creamy, easy-to-blend formula, I most definitely wasn't disappointed. 






























Available in five shades, number 1 was a pretty good match for my pale complexion. A great concealer for covering up any blemishes - I would liken it to Mac's Studio Finish. Although, I prefer to stick to a liquid concealer under my eyes (just my personal preference) but this did have great longevity on the skin, and I didn't find it to crease.

At £17.50, it's definitely on the more high end of concealers, but due to the pigmentation and consistency a little will go along way, so it offers great value for money. Find it here.

Has any one else tried any of Benefit's other concealers?

Lots of love,

Japonesque Make up Set Bag

Hi beauties,

I thought this might be a helpful post for any of my lovely followers who are just starting out in make up artistry. Building a kit can be expensive and daunting and I know that when I was getting started I wanted to focus on the contents of my kit. So when it came to looking into bags and train cases to transport my make up kit around, it was looking like a rather big expense. Now don't get me wrong, I'd love to have a professional Zuca case which I could wheel along, but for now that was the difference of a good few hundred pounds.

So when I spotted this beauty I was so happy! I purchased my Japonesque Set Bag from the Guru Make up Emporium for a amazing £28.95. It has great space inside, and I love the pockets on sides which are are a perfect for my Mac Fix+ and Bioderma.
Inside I can fit a couple of palettes laid down and two full clear zip bags. It's got a side section, but I don't tend to use it, I just stick to the middle section. It's wipe clean, sturdy and amazing value for money.

Hope you found this useful! What are your favourite storage solutions?
