Firstly we are sorry for being gone about a month, college assignments and work had taken over. But hopefully now we will be sticking to our schedule to post again every Wednesday and Saturday.
So its exactly a month to Christmas and its 2 days to our birthday wooooooop!!!! Anyway todays post is going to be a review of 5 products I was given from The Body Shop to wear at work. As you have probably worked out now I work at The Body Shop, I am only a Christmas Temp but fingers crossed I get kept on. It's so much fun everyone is so nice and The Body Shop truly treat there staff very kindly, hence why I got given 5 free products.
Starting of with their new foundation-Fresh Nude Foundation. This foundation is made up with great properties including rose water which makes it smell lovely and creates a gorgeous glow to the skin. I find this foundation lovely when you want your skin to look healthy and fresh. To apply this foundation I use my fingers, it works really well and its nice and quick. I don't actually wear this foundation to work because It means I would have to powder during my shifts. But I love it for those days when you don't really fancy wearing much makeup but want something to make you look alive. The coverage is medium you can build it up however I just use concealer on the areas I want more coverage.
Next I chose a shimmer waves in the number 02. So a shimmer waves is a shimmery blush/highlight. I LOVE this product so much. On top of the fresh nude foundation you just look so fresh faced. Its beautiful! I use the 2 light shades as a highlight, catching it in the light it looks even prettier. You cannot go wrong with this palette especially as it works just as good as eye shadows.
Moving onto eyes I picked up one of the shimmer cubes. These are amazing so pretty and work wet or dry. Either way they both look just as lovely. I love this palette because you can create either a natural eye or build it up to be smoky. I love wearing it as a smoky eye that's why I also picked up the duo eye definer in the brown colour. I apply this to my waterlines and blend out with a small brush. I have been enjoying this recently because it reminds me of Cheryl Fernandez makeup. And who doesn't want to try and look like Cheryl.
Lastly I was recommended one of the colour crush lipsticks in the shade 240. This colour is gorgeous its a winter purple- best way I can describe it. Its not matte but I would say it is a satin finish. These lipsticks do last a long time however talking to customers 24/7 on a shift does make it come of so I wear a lip liner on underneath.
That's everything for todays post- I hope I have made you all want to visit a Body Shop store now. These products would make good stocking fillers!
