Hey there and welcome to day eleven!

I'm feeling super inspired with my makeup recently, I think it's just all the festivities giving me ideas!

Today I'm doing this rose gold look using the Makeup Revolution Foiled Shadow in Rose Gold. I tried to use this when I first bought it and it just didn't work for me, it clumped on my lid and it was just a mess. But I decided to give it another go, and I'm actually impressed! I know that it always sells out, but if you can get your hands on it, it's such a pretty shade, and worth learning how to use!

Firstly I primed and set with White Light from the I heart Makeup Death By Chocolate palette. Then from the same palette, I put Lick Me very lightly in my crease.

Then I took Sidecar from the urban Decay naked Palette and ran this through just so I had some shimmer.

Then I decided I actually wanted some more depth, so I put Beans Are White form the Zoeva Cocoa Blends palette right through my crease line. I also popped a bit more of that Sidecar shade across my lid.

Then the fun part! I put Rose Gold Foiled Eyeshadow from Makeup Revolution all over my lid!

I ran a bit of the Beans Are White shade on my lower lash line, but only very lightly.

And there we are!

On my lips, I used my new absolute favourite, Pink In Excess from PS Pro (yes, Primark). I've had so many compliments about this lipstick and I'm just like "lol go to Primark" I love it!

I have quite a few more makeup ideas, including an anti-Christmas look! So stay tuned for more!!

So today I had one of my usual no makeup Monday's, which is great to give my skin a rest, but for some reason, today it made me realise just how red and dark under my eyes really are. Even with my usual concealer and foundation, it's still pretty obvious just how tired I am. So after doing a bit of research, I decided to buy L'Oreal's Lumi Magique Highlighting Pen/Concealer as it is apparently one of the best high street concealers. Originally I was going to buy the concealer that matches my foundation, with is the True Match Foundation by Rimmel London. However, upon reading reviews, I found out that it comes out cakey and doesn't give great coverage. But with the L'Oreal concealer, I couldn't find many reviews that slated it.

I went for shade #2 in medium, as shade #1 in ivory seemed a little too light for my skin tone. I had really high hopes for this concealer, especially as it could double as a highlighter, and who can resist a 2 in 1? And I wasn't disappointed by this. It covered my dark circles amazingly, it was almost like they didn't exist, which is a first for me in 3 years. It also makes a great highlighter when I applied it in the usual places (cheekbones, chin, nose and cupids bow), yet it wasn't an overpowering highlighter which I quite dislike on me.

The packaging is incredibly pretty in a rose gold, and the brush is quite soft on the face. The bottom twists to release the liquid into the brush. To begin with it took a while to get the product to come out, but be careful as a little of this can go a long way, so don't twist it too fast!
Overall, I'm very pleased with this, and it is worth way beyond it's £8.49 price. I have a feeling that it's going to take a while before I change concealer again.

Thanks for reading,
