WHEN WILL I MASTER MAKEUP

Every day I shove some stuff on my face and hope for the best but today I've realised, I'm pretty average at it. Every day I watch my favourite youtubers and hope for a magic miracle that maybe I've mastered the smoky eye or lipstick that stays inside the line. Heck, I can't even manage to to a flick properly with my liquid liner!
Every day I try to cover scars and imperfections, always wondering why?

  • Why do I do this?
  • Why do I feel self concious
  • Why do I get up earlier than I should have to in order to make myself feel 0.54840x more pretty.
Then it hits me, I do it because I love it, because it does provide some small form of entertainment in my life. I do where make up, when people ask ME "Why?" - Because I love the challenge of trying to perfect something, that's why!

Obviously being a teenager I'm pretty limited as to what I can buy so I've tried to search from reviews and blogs on what the best drug store ones are.

I have combination skin and am obviously by my photo very pale;

Face - Foundation; Currently and quite consistently I have used 'Covergirl & Olay tone rehab 2-in-1' (which                                hydrates the dry parts of my face over a few hours which keeps the flakes at bay. (ivory                                shade which also oxidizes in Summer to show my brown tones).
          Powder; I try to only use a small amount of  foundation and just use concealer on bad parts so over                             to set i use 'ZA True White two-way foundation' (shade 20)
          Primer; 'Australis PRIMER' which I only use in Winter to help keep my skin that bit more hydrated :)
          Moisturiser; Skin food SPF 15+ Skinfood Creme Hydrante' I love it! So natural and a great thickness

Comment below why you wear make-up, your favourite products, anything, help a sister out with her issues ;).

First Blog/Blogpost.

My name's Nicole.
I'm a 15 year old girl from the southern hemisphere! (New Zealand). Boxing day at about 6:45pm I decided I could do this, have a release and try follow in the footsteps of my favourite bloggers/youtubers. I just want essentially a second space, people to vent, laugh and share with, maybe even help in some way :) Please follow me and my ups and downs, email me or anything, I'm up for a chat!
