REAL TECHNIQUES MIRACLE COMPLEXION SPONGE

So after being very reluctant to fork out for a beauty blender, I decided to purchase the real techniques miracle complexion sponge. 
At first I really didn't like it, but that's because I was completely using it wrong. I used it dry😔  So, after watching a few YouTube tutorials on it I tried it wet, first of all just using water. And I really, really, liked it! It honestly applies foundation so flawlessly just by bouncing it along your skin! Normally when I use a brush I go out and realise a bit hasn't been blended as good as I had hoped probably from rushing because I'm late! But with this you hardly have to blend or do anything! Then last week I tried dampening it with my fix+ and it was amazing. As fix+ is a finishing spray it makes your foundation last all day! And applying foundation like this is effortless, which is great as I'm always late! It's sort of egg sized and shaped with a flat bottom and pointed top so you can get into all of the nooks and crannies of your face! Overall I love this sponge and won't be forking out for a beauty blender as I feel it works perfect for what I want! And for £5.99 you can't go wrong! So if you're in need of a new foundation brush, look no further!

VELVET TEDDY REVIEW...

Hi Internet, it's been a long time... I'm a crappy blogger I know! I don't even have an excuse, I have nothing to blame. But I'm back!
I am obsessed with Mac lipsticks and have only just started building my collection. My first lipstick was Velvet Teddy which I got for Christmas from my parents. It's so perfect. It's the perfect brown toned nude matte. 
Kylie Jenner's rumoured lip colour too... Honestly out of my collection so far it's my favourite. It stays on literally for hours even when you eat and drink! It's just...amazing!
Honestly I've recommended it to soooo many people! It's a universal colour and will suit any skin tone. For me, this product is 10/10! Everyone go buy it right now! And for £15.50 the price isn't bad for what you're paying for!
