Bronze Godess - Estée Lauder

So I was debating this purchase for a while after thinking 'Another bronzer, do you really need it?' Obviously the answer was no but I still couldn't resist. 

Honestly, I am in lurrrrrrrrrv with this bronzer. So much so, I take it everywhere with me. I am a bit of freak when I go on holiday and I refuse to get any sun on my face as I hate the thought of a sunburnt face, so while the rest of my body tans away my face remains white. So of course when I come back I need something to bronze it up a little. 

THIS, this is the one. It isn't a matte bronzer but I feel like I can apply this all over my face and I don't get the annoying glitter specs popping up here there and everywhere it just gives a subtle glow. I also don't get that 'muddy' look, which as a pale girl is sometimes not that hard to dodge. The packaging is exactly what I need as there's more than enough bronzer there and the mirror inside is everything and perfect for traveling.

£32 is a bit steep for a bronzer I know but if you are willing to splurge this will definitely not disappoint it's stunning and I could even go as far to say that I love it more than my Nars laguna (which I have loved to death!). This could even be my new holy grail!

40 Beauty Questions TAG

 This is a tag that I saw floating around so I thought I would give it a go as my much favourite posts to do are TAGS!

How many times a day do you wash your face?
I wash my face in the morning and before I go to bed but if I am going to be reapplying my make up for something I will wash it then. 

What skin type do you have?
My skin has an act for confusing me sometimes, normally I would say dry but recently I have been getting a slight oily forehead on occasions so I guess that means combination. 

Whats your current facial wash?
It is the Elemis FreshSkin skin clear purifying facial wash but this is literally on its last legs and I probably only have a few more washes, it was okay but I think I would try to find a cheaper alternative. 
 
Do you exfoliate?
Yes, I use the St Ives gentle daily exfoliant and I love it, I use it daily because it really is gentle enough to use.

What Brand do you use?
Oops, answered this already, I use the St Ives one.

What moisturiser do you use?
 I use the Olay beauty fluid which I have mentioned before which is also okay but I am on the hunt for a better one!

Do you have freckles?
I do have freckles but they are so much more visible in the summer time, I don't really mind them.

Do you use eye cream?
As bad as this sound as I am a beauty blogger I don't actually wear an eyecream, I always say I am going to use one and then forget! 

Do you have acne prone skin?
No, I am quite lucky when it comes to spots but when I do get a spot it is gross, under the skin, red, swollen, yeah, you know the ones. Gross.

What foundation do you use?
Well right now because I have just come back off holiday I am using MAC studio fix fluid which I am not keen on but usually I would use MAC pro longwear which I love. 

Do you know your undertone colour?
Pinkish.

What do you think of false lashes?
I love how they look but they would do my head in wearing them daily so I only wear them occasionally. 

Did you know that your supposed to change your mascara every three months?
Oops, I thought it was six haha! But I normally use it up well before three anyway.

What brand of mascara do you use?
Rimmel or Maybelline

Sephora or MAC
We don't have a Sephora in the UK so it would definitely have to be MAC  

Do you have a MAC pro card
Nope!

What make up tools do you use on a daily basis
Apart from brushes, either tweezers or eyelash curlers and a make up sponge

Do you use make up base/primer
Yep, I use benefits pore-fessional which I absolutely love.

Do you use an eyeshadow base?
Yes, either urban decays primer potion or MACs paintpot in Painterly 

What is your favourite eyeshadow?
I don't have a specific one but I love the whole of the Naked 2 palette

Do you prefer pencil or liquid liner?
Definitely liquid liner but then I do like pencil if I want a more softer look

How often do you poke your eye with eyeliner?
Never really, I am used to it now.

What do you think of pigment eyeshadow?
I don't really own any pigment eyeshadows so I don't really have an opinion on them!     

Do you use mineral make up?
No, but I have heard that it looks good.

What is your favourite lipstick?
Probably creme cup by MAC

How about lipgloss?
I wont lie, I am not much of a fan of lipgloss

What is your favourite blush?
I am going to be really helpful and tell you that my favourite blush is by an unknown brand with an unknown name but its a gorgeous peachy pink colour and it is perfect for summer

Do you ever buy make up from eBay?
Nope never, I don't think I ever will either        

Do you like drugstore make up?
Yes, like I love drugstore mascaras and lip products but I am not really a fan of any drugstore foundations and would rather pay more for a better one.

Do you go to CCO's (Cosmetic Company Outlets)
Nope.

Do you ever consider taking Make up classes?
I study make up artistry at college, but I would love to go and do a five week course up in London somewhere.

Are you clumsy at putting makeup on?
When I first put on make up, DEFINITELY, but now I would like to think I was not too bad haha.
 
Name a makeup crime you hate?
Definitely has to be when someone has foundation lines and there foundation does not match them whatsoever! Really grinds my gears ha!

Do you prefer colourful or neutral makeup?                                                                              
It depends on where I am going but 99% of the time I would say neutral although I do like to go quite colourful on the lips.  

Which celebrity has good makeup?             
Kind of a no brainer, definitely all of the Kardashians, its perfect all the time!    

If you could only leave the house wearing one item what would it be?
I think it would have to be mascara, because it has the ability to make you look a little bit more awake when really you are not. 

Could you ever wear no makeup?
Most of the time I do not wear makeup to college or work, so I am going to say yes. But if you mean not wear it forever then I would say no.  
   
Do you think you look good without makeup on?
No not at all, I am really conscious about my skin because I have quite a lot of scaring around my cheeks and chin area and I hate my dark circles.   
  
Best makeup line?
Definitely Nars, I love everything by them. Then probably MAC.
