make up and tea

- honey bronze bronzing gel for face from the body shop and urban decay loose pigment -

- urban decay loose pigment brush -

- copco reusable 16oz coffee cup -

This bronzing gel from the Body Shop really is quite fantastic. I have never been a fake tan person and probably never will be but this is handy for rubbing on your neck and décolletage if your going out makeup is darker than your everyday makeup. When you first apply it it looks a bit blotchy but it dries really well and certainly does not look like fake tan. Also if you're not really in a make up mood, slapping it on like a tinted moisturizer followed by some light powder works pretty well. I bought it after reading about it HERE. At €18, it is a fairly decent price when it comes to finding a decent tinited moisturizer or bronzing gel light enough for the face. 9/10

I picked this Urban Decay eyeshadow up in Cara Pharmacy in Sligo and although the brush is pretty much unusable as it flickered pigment all over your face the eyeshadow itself is very good. Highly pigmented and a nice colour (smog) considering its meek price tag. 7/10

I picked this reusable coffee cup in Home Store and More in Sligo yesterday when I was buying a weighing scales (along with six other people in the queue - 'tis January after all). I couldn't resist it  even though I don't actually drink coffee but it's nice a big and perfect for holding lots of tea!

Cheers for reading,
