MY AUTUMN FAVOURITES

Since its coming in to autumn months i thought it'd be my inspiration to put up a new blogpost FINALLY!

So i've been loving the autumn trends for this year, there something i can wear and everyone can wear! whether they have pale skin like me or dark skinned, no matter what body shape you are, EVERYONE can put them into their everyday look!

So for this blogpost I will be beauty and for the next blogpost I will be doing fashion!

So my my favoutite foundations for this month will have to be mac studio fix foundation in NW20, now this colour suits me best when i'm going out or when i have a little bit of tan on, i don't wear makeup on a daily basis so its perfect for staying on through out the night and not caking up if you blend it in properly. It gives no flashback and i love the finish it gives. Many people do complain that this foundation breaks them out and usually i do think the same, it wouldn't break me out badly but i would find i get a spot yet i don't know if that's by coincidence or if it really is the foundation but the last time i used it which was Sunday i didn't get ANY breakouts so i think its due to my skincare routine!




The next foundation is the double wear foundation by estee lauder! This would be a foundation i would wear if i was going town or just in the day instead of a night as it has some SPF in it! which is great for the day as it protects your skin! But for the night when you're taking pictures it will give a white caste over your face. The coverage on this foundation is amazing and there is NO cakiness at all! i am in-love with the foundation and must get the full size.

I have 4 favourite eyshadows for this month, for an everyday eye look i use macs 'retro speck' on the lid with sleeks 'boxed' and 'wrapped up' in the outer corner and blended into the crease. This look opens up the eye and also gives it the autumn look with the brown and a bit of purple in the crease.
This colour is amazing for opening up the eyes and such a natural lid colour. Its so blendable and and diverse its amazing!

'Boxed'

'Wrapped Up'


 For a night look i like to use a bronze eyeshadow all over the lid which is sleeks bronze shade from the i-Divine storm palette. I cant find the name of it anywhere. It gives such dimension to the eye that it doesn't look like just one colour, if i want to add a colour i add the 'boxed' colour into the crease and outer corner.
These sleek eyeshadows are my favourite this month! They are so blendable and silky its amazing. They are also so pigmented, the colour payoff is UNBELIEVABLE.



My favourite bronzer will have to be the dior bronzer in 'Demo Poudre Soleil Tan' this has little shimmer particles in it and it gives such a great glow to the skin without looking over shimmery and cheap! a little goes a long way so i only need to touch the bonzer and it gives such pigmentation!! I think a strong highlight is also very in the autumn so it gives the best of both.


For this season i definitely think bold brows are a must, so i love using my urban decay eyeshadow in 'naked' to fill them in with a mac 266 brush and if i want a more sculpted brow i like to use my rimmel eyebrow pencil in 'blonde' this gives the eyeshadow something more to stick to and makes them look amazing!!



And of course my favourite lipstick would have to be 'Va Va Violet' by revlon, i did review this already on my other blogpost but this is just such an amazing pigmented lipstick that i am inlove with this, its such a daring lipstick and i'm so surprised that i can get away with it but i am so happy it is in trend this autumn. Another lipstick that has caught my eye is 'othodox' by revlon or macs 'fixed on drama' and i cannot wait to get my hands on it, it is a more berry lipstick rather than a purple vampy style.

A New Modern Look!

So this blogpost is a bit of a change from the others that I've done.
I recently changed my whole look with my glasses, I went for a more modern and bold look. For about a year or 2 years now i always wanted the geek style glasses. So I just went for it and made a trip into my local specsavers in the city center. Making this change was not as easy as I thought as I had quite a few options to choose from and picking one was just not easy at all. The good thing was I knew what style I wanted to go for but when I went in I was amazed by how many modern, bold and safisticated style glasses they had in store.

For the last 5 years now I've always went for the boring rectangled shape glasses, which I did love and never had any complaints about them. But as I've gotten older I've felt the need to have a more safisticated look and a more 'in trend' look with my glasses. Almost like using my glasses to my advantage and making them an accessory.



I have to say that the people in specsavers are so nice and helpful with trying out glasses and looking for the style you want. The also have so many offers in store and SOOOOO many styles for any age. So props to specsavers!!

So my new glasses are called Tristan 24881838, these are actually the men styled glasses but they are perfect! I can't even get over how much I love them and how chic and safisticated they make me look! It's like wearing the cinema 3D glasses after taking out the plastic parts. It also makes me feel like I can still wear my glasses in pictures, I don't feel the need to take them off.




I have finally got the act of contact lenses, now i do normally where my glasses when i need them for television and school, but when i do go out for parties and such i do prefer to where contacts!!(when i can afford them haha!)

Hope you enjoyed this review on my new glasses,
love rouxella x

My Favourite Drugstore Mascaras

So here it is my first ever blog-post! For my first post I decided to talk about my favourite beauty item, something I could never live without.Whether I am going to town or school or anywhere, mascara is a must! I don't know whether it is to do with my love for big lashes or that I have naturally blonde eyelashes I just always have to have some mascara on.

Throughout the years of loving makeup I have tried quite a few mascaras, from high end mascaras to the drugstore favourites. But overall drugstore mascaras have been the best. All these drugstore mascaras I have all bought in boots.

The first mascara I am going to review is one of the most favourite mascara choices throughout the world and especially among the beauty guru family. It is the maybelline falsies mascara by maybelline. This mascara is perfect for making my eyelashes very dramatic looking and insanely black, I must say I do prefer putting an elongating mascara on first just to get the full effect of the mascara. Because my eyelashes are blonde I love the blackness of this mascara and the way it shows the fullness of my eyelashes that you couldn't really see normally.

The second mascara is also in the same brand as the mascara I just reviewed, it is the one by one mascara by maybelline. This is by far my favourite maybelline mascara, it gives such length to my eyelashes and the thickness can be built up so easily without clumps. Another thing that also made it my favourite is that the root of my lashes were also coated which is normally a problem for me.

My current favourite mascara is the miss sporty's pump up mascara booster in 001 black, I love the length and thickness it gives my eyelashes. It's very black and very cheap. The downsides to this mascara is that its very wet so it takes longer to dry and it might get onto your under eye area which is very annoying. My mother has been using the waterproof version of this mascara and finds that it doesn't smudge down under the lashes which is a bonus to people that this happens to. Valued at €4.99 it is worth the try!!
