FOTD! Joining #FoundationFreeFortnight

Hello lovelies!


This post is going to be a little different because I am hopping on yet another band waggon (the first being my year long no heat challenge).

LibbyGrindell is starting a movement to embrace her own beautiful skin with the hashtag #FoundationFreeFortnight. You can read her post here.

Basically, it's going base free for a fortnight (which is two weeks for those of you not brushed up on Shakespearean English). Which also means that all foundation, BB and CC creams, tinted moisturizers etc. are banned. You can definitely play with the eyes and lips (as you should) but for the duration of the challenge no covering up your skin.

I think this is a fantastic idea. Actually recently, I've been experiencing a time lapse and have not been able to rock a full face of makeup like I used to so I have only been wearing a bold lip, eyeliner and 50 milllion coats of mascara.

Not only has my skin improved exponentially since I started doing this I also find myself worrying less and spending less time in the mirror checking on my makeup because I'm hardly wearing any!

So if you want to join Libby as well, feel free to use the hashtag #FoundationFreeFortnight on Twitter and Instagram and post your base free pictures.

Here are a few of mine (:



That's it for this post guys! There will be another tomorrow so don't worry this one was so short (:

REVIEW: Maybelline New York Fit Me Powder and Liquid Foundation!!

Hello and happy Tuesday my fellow beauty lovers!! So I decided that I really needed to do a review on my absolute favorite foundation right now. There are three things that I look for in a foundation:

1. Coverage: Unless it is really hot or I do not feel like wearing makeup that day I like a full coverage for my foundation

2. Shade Match Up: For some reason it's hard for me to find I foundation that I think matches with my skin tone so when I do find one I cling onto it for dear life

3. Price: I am not saying that it has to be under $5 but I definitely do not want to spend $20+ on a foundation

So now moving on with the actual review starting with the liquid foundation (:

Maybelline New York Fit Me Liquid Foundation 340
I was really impressed with this foundations because it really covered all of the areas that I look for in a foundation. It is a very thick formula so it gives me that full coverage that I want. It matches up really well with my skin tome and it was $6. Now I am not going to lie I was a little nervous to try the foundation because of the price but I was pleasantly surprised. Also, it does not add any extra oil to my face. I tend to sweat a lot during the day but I like that this formula is very oil free and did not feel too heavy on m face.

Overall I am in love with this foundation!

Now onto the powder (:

Maybelline New York Fit Me Powder Foundation Second Look
Again, I am very satisfied with this product! Sometimes on days when I do not feel like wearing foundation I will just dust on some of this powder and it works just as well! It gives me the coverage that I want but with half the effort (: I also like the packaging; on top is the powder and when you lift that up there is a mirror and powder fluff. So cute! For $12 this combination of products is a steal!!

Overall this combination of products is amazing and I am so glad that I found them (:
