Currently Loving: The Light Base


Day to day life doesn't always call for the heavy duty concealer and the hide-it-all foundation. Recently I've been opting for a much more natural base - dewy and not at all cakey.

Kiko Dark Circle Concealer: This little beauty has lived in my collection for a while now and I've never taken time to sing its praises. This is the perfect orange toned concealer that cancels out any dark bags that have crept up overnight. It's not too thick but has the perfect amount of coverage. The only thing this product doesn't do is brighten my under-eye, hence where my Maybelline Eraser Eye comes in handy. I've been enjoying layering a small amount of the Eraser eye over where I have applied the Kiko Concealer just to add a small amount more coverage and brighten the area. These two together are a miracle worker. To apply both I have been using the £1.99 bargain set of brushes from Ebay - see my review on them here.

L'Oreal Lumi Cushion: This cushion foundation is the quickest foundation to apply - one of the many reasons why I've been reaching for it so much recently. This foundation is light to medium coverage but is build-able on the areas where you need a bit more help. This, alongside my trusty Beauty Blender are the perfect combo for a light day to day base.
