Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation

Apologies for the complete lack of posts on my behalf, i have big exams coming up so my motivation for blogging has been the size of an ant! Exams are the worst.

Anyway lets move on to this foundation! This is the Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation and retails for £8.99. It is a medium coverage foundation with a slightly pink undertone. You can tell you have foundation on which i thought was slightly disappointing, as it is 'nearly naked'.
Throughout the day it seems to wear well, however if you have oily skin like myself you will most definitely need to powder, at least a couple times.
Overall i think the Revlon Colourstay foundation is at the moment staying my firm favourite!
Have you tried this foundation? 

Revlon ColourStay Foundation

This little product was from a recent Boots browse, you honestly must think i shop no where else... however i have ordered a couple things from Superdrug this week. Anyway i originally ordered the No7 Matte foundation but this came in the post, so i thought i would try it anyway.

I was pleasantly surprised, as with most (basically all) of the products i have reviewed on this blog has been mentioned by some other bloggers, where-as this has been mentioned by everyone. Even my friends, which is some sort of revelation as they never want to talk about make-up.

This is the Revlon Colour- Stay foundation in shade Buff 150, it is usually £12.49 from Boots. There are two versions of this, i have got the oilier skin type version. 

To start with the packaging is OK, however i hate how there is no pump! I end up pouring out too much on to my hand (as i am awful with measurements) and wasting it!

The foundation itself is lovely, it is very smooth and looks flawless on the face. I have found the best way to apply it is with a brush (Real Techniques expert face brush).

Throughout the day it seems to wear very well, however if you do have one or two spots i recommend wearing a concealer as-well because they will start to show nearing the end of the day.

I do wear concealer under my eye as it will not cover those, however my under eye circles are very dark so i would not hold it against this foundation.

The oil control is better than most foundations, though i did need to apply powder to my face.

Overall this is a lovely foundation, it didn't break me out and makes me look lovely in pictures! What more can i ask for? 

This is a definite recommendation from me!

Clear Skin #3: Witch Blemish Stick

This is the 3rd post in my clear skin series, and I have a blemish stick for you!

This is the Witch Blemish Stick found at Boots and any other drug stores. 

This works wonders on oily combination skin especially. It reminds me a bit of a glue stick in the way it applies, you push this 'waxy' stick out and rub it on the break out area.

This is probably one of the few products which I repurchase often, as a side note it does not run out quickly either which makes it worth the money.

I cannot remember the price of this item off the top of my head but I assure you it is not that expensive or I would not have bought it. I am a strong believer that the cheaper, the better.

Clear Skin #2: Pro Active Cleanse Bar

Welcome back to my journey to Clear Skin day 2!
Today i have a soap bar?! Yes, a soap bar.
It is the Pro Active Cleansing Exfoliating bar- £14.99

As you can see it is for Acne prone skin, however my skin is not prone to acne it can get rather spotty! When you have lathered it up small bits appear which gives it the 'cleansing feel'. Although it has bits in it, it does not feel harsh on your face. Which is a great point about this.
It is on the expensive side of face products but believe me it works, i had reduced redness in my face and did not look like a tomato.
Overall if you are prone to lots of spots anywhere on your body and face i recommend using this everyday. It will reduce your acne/spots if you pair it with a good spot cream (hint what is coming next)

Clear Skin #1: Boots Foaming Face Wash

So lately i have been tackling with spotty skin, so i thought i would start a series in which i can write reviews about the products i have tested. Everyone has those small annoying breakouts, whether its 'the time of the month' or just because your a teenager like myself.

So the first product in this series is the Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel face foaming wash, which was £3.59. So generally quite a cheap product for a 150ml bottle.

I am very pleased with this product, as it is very gentle on my skin. No one wants a face wash that makes your face sore! It cleaned my face, getting off those bits of makeup i was too lazy to do myself. It reduced my breakout a lot by the next morning, so my face wasn't a huge mess.

I have to add the whole foam thing is rather fun! 

It is an easy lather and foams up beautifully!

I can definitely say a 5/5 for me from my clear skin series.
