Nars Sheer Glow Review

                 

I've seen many YouTubers talk about the Nars Sheer glow foundation and how good it is. So I decided to take a trip down to Space NK 

Before I purchased this foundation I ask one of the makeup artists to test the foundation out on my skin to match my skin tone, im in the shade Medium - Barcelona.

This foundation is lightweight, which is one of the things I love about this product, as some foundations can feel heavy on the skin but this one is truly amazing! as it is a light weight foundation it's buildable for those who like full covered finish.

This foundation just leaves a really nice finish, it brightens up the face also giving a really nice glow.Also that weightless feel it has to it.
With this foundation you only need a small amount, as it does go a long way. 

One of the things that it says on the packaging, is that its a hydrating foundation suitable for normal/dry skin. For someone that has dry skin it just works amazingly, helping it to stay fresh throughout the day without my skin feeling dry underneath.

I use my real techniques buffing brush  with this foundation, as it just gives that really nice natural look to the skin.

This foundation doesn't come cheap -£31 ,the only down side to this product is that it doesn't come with a pump which I believe is £3 extra which the new Nars foundation does

Just after I applied the foundation 

Roughly after 7 hours- still on my face (there was no fading from the foundation)

       

I would definitely recommend this product it does what is says in the name 'glow', gives a really nice finish also that weightless feel to it. So i would say its worth the £31.

Have you tried the Nars Sheer Glow? What do you think of it ?

 So as you can tell I've been shopping. so I thought I would do a little haul for you .

All of these are from H&M divided red.

So the first thing picked up was this Minnie Mouse jumper it comes down to the middle of the thigh, it's just so warm and soft also super comfy.

They did have a mickey mouse one aswell.

Minnie Mouse Jumper: £19.99

This jumper i couldn't resist, a torquise jumper with dinorsaurs

Dinosaur jumper : £5.99

These trousers just caught my eye. The material is super soft and they are quite flowy but tight round the ankle, they also added a little something to my wardrobe but again they're really soft and comfy.

Jersey trousers: £7.99

Two flower tops one with Fall in love and the other New York city 

The first top is a little bit shorter than the other as shown in the pictures

they were both £7.99

Have you been to H&M recenlty ? or bought anything new ?

New Year 2015!

So its the new year, I cant believe how fast 2014 went! it was full of ups and downs and many obstacles.
Now alot of people talk about new years resolutions and what theirs is..... but me I never really have any or I just never stick to them.
It's a new year so start fresh, i cant wait to see what 2015 has in store for me, my family&friends.

Here's some of the resolutions I have made (lets see if I can stick to them)

1. Do more of what you love - I think this one is important because i just need to start doing more of what I love to do and not worry about what other people think because i just think its your life, just do what makes you happy.

2. Be fitter&healthier- Now by this I mean eating healthier and exercise more, as over christmas we all know that we eat lots of bad food, but in general I mean eating the good foods, more fruit & veg within the foods I eat.

3. Blog more - For me since I've started blogging, I've found it as something to do, in my time but its also a way of getting my opinions out and share anything with you guys. I really want to make the time to write more.

4. Read more- Now I love reading don't get me wrong but sometimes, I'm either too tired or don't have the time, but this year I want to read more because I do enjoy it so I'm definitely going to make the time. From my last blog post I think it was in my favourites I mentioned that I was reading the harry potter books, so I really want to finish the whole book set (as I have seen the films).

5. Pass my theory &driving test - To be honest I just can't wait to drive and it would be an amazing start to the year as, I do have my theory test coming up very soon, I have my fingers crossed, I really hope I pass this time because I took a test before christmas and was only 4 marks off! which was annoying but I am hoping I do it the second time round.

I hope the new year brings you alot of happiness,love and amazing opportunities!.

So these are my New years resolutions .what's your new years resolutions?
