Published and Made up!

Yeserday a copy of the Uni newspaper came out, and I rushed out for it because this week, one of my articles was going to be published in it. I opened it up, flicked over the page, and there I was on page four.

"Postgraduate boom Expected"
And then my very first by-line!

I swear I could have screamed there in the shop, the rush was incredible! I will definitely be going back for more asap!

So I think friday was my weirdly lucky day, my mummy (in celebration of valentines day and my publishing accomplishment) bought me three items of Benefit make-up (yes I am Benefit obsessed now!), all of which I now wonder how I lived without...

High Beam
Posie Tint
Some-Kinda-Gorgeous foundation.

As much as I adore the Max Factor Facefinity foundation, Some-kinda-gorgeous definitely gives me a more even coverages and lifts my skin more, thus with sme avon face perfector underneath, it'll be awesome. It's very matt looking which I adore, and helps my skin keep in it's moisture which is perfect for me.

The posie-tint is fantastic, one little pot two amazing uses, giving me a nice pink glow on my cheek bones, as well as a fantastic base for blush, as well as a brilliant pink stain for my lips, which when combined with a pale colour lip gloss just looks fab, nothing fancy for a night out, but a perfect lip-gloss look.

High Beam just illuminated my brow bone and very top of my cheek bones to give me a very very slight shine, emphasising my eyes beautifully. This can be used very little to create a nice "alive and alert" look for things like work, or apply more for a night out.

So while I take two products off of my make-up wish list... I have one to add: Dear John, the moisturiser, which the lovely lady used on me in the shop when i asked about the posie tint and high beam, my skin felt gorgeous with it. It's a very thick moisturiser making it perfect for dry skin, and a little goes an awful long way. but at £26.50 I'll be waiting a little while to pick that up.
