October Favourites

Hello lovelies, today I would love to share with you the products that I have been loving using this month. I have discovered a few new products that I've fallen in love with and can't wait to tell you all about them. Hope you enjoy!



Giorgio Armani - Luminous Silk Foundation

I don't know about you but I've heard so many people rave about this foundation and I've wanted to try it for ages, so this month I decided it was time I tried it out and I'm so pleased that I did. I would say that it's a medium coverage foundation which can be built up to a more full coverage. It appears pretty duey on my skin when I apply it but once I set it with powder it stays matte all day. I apply it with a beauty blender and it just looks so flawless on the skin. I'm not sure if I prefer it to my Nars Sheer Glow just yet but it is definitely one of my all time favourites.

Too Faced - Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick - 'Sell Out'

I have worn this lipstick for pretty much the majority of this month. It has definitely been my go to lipstick choice because I love the colour but it also lasts for a really long time on the lips. I am going to have to get my hands on the shade 'Child Star' because it looks so pretty and I'm sure I would love it just as much as this one. I prefer this formula to the original Too Faced melted lipsticks because although they can be very drying and crack slightly, they last for such a long time without needing to be reapplied throughout the day.

Mac - Fluidline Brow Gel Creme - 'Dirty Blonde'

I discovered this product this month because my Anastasia Dip Brow had run out and I wanted to try another product which is similar. So far I'm really liking it, I don't think it's a perfect colour match for my brows but it's pretty close and you can't tell once you're wearing it. I find it's really easy to apply and it lasts such a long time without smudging at all.

Benefit - Erase Paste

As for concealer, I have been obsessed with this product to help counteract my dark circles under my eyes. This concealer is salmon coloured so the orange helps to cancel out the blue/purple tones under my eyes. It's super creamy which makes it so easy to apply and blend into the skin. It does a really good job of helping to reduce the darkness and it really helps to brighten up my face.


Kat Von D - Tattoo Liner

I wear eyeliner pretty much everyday so I'm always looking for the best liquid liner that I can find and I think this might be it. There has been so much hype around this product but I really think it's worth it because it is so good. The felt tip is very fine which makes it so easy to draw a precise line. It doesn't smudge on me at all and lasts for the whole day. It's also super black, so basically I would just describe it as the perfect eyeliner.

Autumn Essentials

Hello lovelies, today I wanted to share with you some of my favourite things about Autumn. This is my favourite season because everything is so cosy, the leaves are all pretty colours and I think the fashion is always so much better in these few months. So here are some of my favourite things surrounding Autumn.

Fashion

One of my favourite things about Autumn fashion is the fact that the colour scheme of the clothes always includes more maroons, khakis and brown shades. I also love layering items up and my favourite kind of outfit involes wearing cute little skirts with tights and ankle boots, ahh it just makes me excited writing about it. Anyway, I've included photos some of my favourite Autumn outfits so I'll list below where the items are from.








Outfit 1:
Jacket - New Look
Top - River Island
Skirt - New Look
Tights - Primark
Boots - New Look
Necklace - New Look
Bag - Michael Kors




Outfit 2:

Skirt - New Look
Tights - Primark

Outfit 3:

Tights - Primark

Necklace - ASOS

Makeup

When I think of Autumn makeup the first thing that comes to mind is darker berry toned lipsticks and golden or brown toned eye makeup, so it's no surprise that that has been my go to look recently. I tend to wear a golden shadow all over my lid and blend a darker brown through my crease to give my eye some definition. I also like to put some brown on my bottom lash line to balance out the look. Some of my favourite palettes for this kind of look are the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette (click here to see a previous post about this palette and a drugstore alternative); the Urban Decay Original Naked palette and the Urban Decay Ultimate Naked Basics palette.

As for lip products, I have a fair few favourites that I am loving and tend to switch between. They are all pretty similar in colour, however all have a slightly different finish on the lips. The majority of my favourites have a matte finish and they are as follows:
  • Too Faced Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick - 'Sell Out'
  • Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick - 'Lolita'
  • NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream - 'Rome'
  • Mac Lipstick - 'Whirl'
  • Mac Lipstick - 'Taupe'
  • Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil - 'Bahama' (Click here to see a full review)
  • Clinique Pop Matte - 'Blushing Pop'


From Left to Right: Mac Lipstick - Taupe; Mac Lipstick - Whirl; Clinique Pop Matte - Blushing Pop; Mac Lipstick - Spirit; Mac Liptensity - Toast and Butter; NYX - Rome; Too Faced - Sell Out; Kat Von D - Lolita

The other lipsticks I love have a more satin/glossy finish. The first is one of the new Mac liptensity lipsticks in the shade 'Toast and Butter'. The other is a mac lipstick in the shade 'Spirit'. As for lip liners there are two that I like to use, one is the Mac lip pencil in the shade 'Spice' and the other is from Primark and it's the shade '16'.



From Left to Right: Primark - '16'; Mac Lip Pencil - 'Spice'; Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil - 'Bahama'

I've recently done a post on one of my go to Autumn Makeup looks, so click here if you would like to see that.

Hot Chocolates

Since the weather is starting to get much colder in the Autumn time, one thing I love to do it snuggle up with a blanket and have a warm hot chocolate. I always feel so relaxed and I love to this in the evening. It's always my drink of choice if I go out to a little café because I'm one of those people that doesn't like tea or coffee.



Nail Varnish

As I'm sure you can tell from the lipstick shades I like to wear, I really love marroon and burgundy shades in the Autumn. I have a few favourite nail varnishes that I tend to switch between and I have previously done a blog post where I share what my favourite dark red nail varnishes are (click here to read it). Since having done that post I have also discovered a few other shades that I love. They are as follows:
  • O.P.I - 'Just a Little Rösti at this'
  • Barry M Quick Dry - 'Sprint Finish'
  • Essie - 'Bordeaux'


Although I love these shades I have also been wearing false nails more recently. The ones I have been wearing most are actually from Primark. They have a set which are the shade 'Poison' and they're such a lovely dark maroon shade. The glue is also really good and my nails stayed on for a full week without falling off and considering that they're only £1 that's so good! I'd definitely recommend you pick some up when you next go, I stocked up on about 5 packs because I really like them.

Let me know what your favourite things about autumn are because I'd love to know!

Top 5 Affordable Base Products

Hello lovelies, in today's post I would love to share with you what my current drugstore favourites are regarding base products. I will be putting up a few other posts similar to this, such as what my favourite eye products are from the drugstore and also what my favourite high end products are from these categories. I hope you enjoy this mini series and let me know if you have any questions.



Makeup Revolution - Ultra Contour Palette

 This palette is such good value for money considering what you get in it. You get 3 contour/bronze shades and 3 highlighting shades in addition to 2 shimmery highlighters. The middle contour shade is perfect for my skin tone and I find it really easy to blend out. I also love how pigmented the highlighters are because they really show up well on your skin. This is a powder palette which I much prefer to creme contour palettes because I find they work better with my skin type.

NYX - Pore Filler Primer

This primer has been my go-to lately because it works so well at minimising the appearance of pores on my skin. It leaves a really smooth finish on the skin which is a perfect base to apply your foundation to. It really helps to make my foundation appear more flawless and I can really notice a difference in how visible my pores are when I don't wear it.

L'Oreal - True Match Foundation

I have recently rediscovered this foundation and I'm so pleased because it is definitely one of my favourites from the drugstore. It has a medium coverage but you can build it up in areas. I find it looks really natural on my skin and lasts a pretty long time too. The colour range is also really good because they have a large selection of shades to choose from, with different undertones too.



The Body Shop - Bronzing Powder

I had heard people on YouTube raving about this bronzer for ages and I can really see why. It's not the cheapest product that you can find but the quality of it is the same as some of my more expensive bronzers. It's very finely milled which makes it really easy to blend out and appear more natural on your skin. It's also not too orange so it just makes your skin look really sun kissed. I always know how much I like a product if I've hit pan and that's definitely the case with this.

MUA - Highlighter in 'Iridescent Gold'

Although this highlighter is only about £3 from Superdrug it's actually really good. It shows up so well on your skin and is really pigmented so doesn't fade that much throughout the day. I love the colour of this highlighter in particular. However, it also comes in a pink shade which other people may prefer. If you're looking for a highlighter but you don't want to spend too much I would 100% recommend you pick this one up, it's fab!

Covershoot Cosmetics

The other day I recieved some products from the lovely people over at Covershoot Cosmetics. They are a new company that currently have lots of new products on the way but they were kind enough to send me some that are already available. I have tried them out and would love to share with you how I got on with them.



The two products that stood out the most to me were the contouring palette and eyebrow kit.  I really liked the packaging for these because they're matte black and really sleek. I loved the fact that inside the contour palette there were some instructions of where to apply the product to your face. This would be so beneficial to those who are new to contouring. I also loved that you get a lot of product in the pan because it would last you a while.



I was also sent some eyeshadow palettes to try out. I haven't used these too much yet because they aren't colours that I would tend to wear everyday. However, I know I will get a lot of use out of the multicoloured eyeshadow palette especially when Summer comes around because I will be more likely to experiment with brighter colours.

My favourite product that they sent me was the nail polish remover. I found that this removed my nail varnish so well and didn't dry out my nails at all. It was also really good at removing red nail varnish which I sometime struggle to remove because the colour can tend to cling to your nails.

I'm so grateful for being sent these products to review, so thank you so much once again to the people at Covershoot Cosmetics. All of their information is on their website and I will link their social media pages below.

September Favourites

Hello lovelies, so today I have my September favourites for you. I haven't really been blogging very much this month so I haven't discovered that many new products. However, I do have four that I have been obsessed with for pretty much the whole month and I didn't want to miss a favourites post. Hope you enjoy!



Becca - Shimmering Skin Perfector (Opal)

If you have read my American Beauty Haul you will have seen that I picked up this highlighter whilst I was on holiday in Florida. I already had a Becca highlighter in the shade 'Moonstone' and it was my favourite so I knew I had to get another. I'm so pleased that I got this shade though, I couldn't decide between 'Opal' and 'Champagne Pop' for ages, but I decided to go for 'Opal' in the end because it looked like it would suit my skin tone more. I have worn this highlighter literally every day this month. I can't quite rave about this product enough, at £32 it is very pricey, but with good reason, because it's so beautiful.

Benefit - Precisely My Eyebrow Pencil (Shade 2)

When I first picked up this product I wasn't the biggest fan of it for myself because the shade I had was slightly too light for my eyebrows. However, recently I have been using it to outline the shape at the front of my eyebrow. The tip is very thin which makes it really easy to be precise when you're using it. I found that because I have a slightly lighter shade it doesn't look too heavy on my eyebrows, but still defines them. I don't use this to fill all my eyebrow in, because i use the Anastasia Dip Brow for the second half of my brow, but this eyebrow pencil allows me to be more precise if I want to.

Clinique - Lipstick in 'Blushing Pop'

I picked up this lipstick this month whilst shopping in Debenhams and I have to say I am so impressed. The lipstick itself dries to a fairly matte finish without drying out your lips. Unlike other matte lipsticks, it still feels really moisturising which is surprising considering that it lasts a diary long time. I chose this colour because as always it was a nude shade and they're my fave. However, I do think that this could become my all time favourite lipstick shade. Big thing to stay, I know! The colour is just so gorgeous and I just think it really suits my complexion and I haven't yet found a lipstick like it.

Kiss Lashes

Since I had ran out of my favourite Ardell 'Wispies' lashes this month, I decided to try out a pair of the Kiss Lashes. I'd heard really good things about this brand, so wanted to see what they were like for myself. I've worn them by themselves and also with an extra pair of outer corner lashes (as seen in my previous post) and I think they look great both ways. The lashes have a really thin band so they're easy to apply and aren't overly noticeable.

Autumn Makeup Look: Maroon Eye and Berry Lip

Hello lovelies, so I know it seems like forever since I've posted but I've been so busy this summer so my blogging routine has completely gone out the window, sorry! I'm back now though and I'm aiming to be posting at least once a week again, on Wednesdays. So today I thought I would share with you what my go to look for Autumn is going to be. I knew I wanted to go for a darker lip than usual and pair it with a maroon eye look and this was what I came up with.



Base

1. To start with I used both the NYX pore filler primer and the Nivea post shave balm to prime my face. I am loving this Nivea balm at the moment because it is really good at making my foundation last all day long.

2. I then used the Nars sheer glow foundation in the shade 'Mont Blanc' and applied an even layer of this with a beauty blender to my face.

3. I then went in with the Too Faced 'born this way' concealer to cover up any blemishes on my face. I've only just got this concealer but so far I am really loving it!

4. I then used the collection lasting perfection concealer in the lightest shade to highlight underneath my eyes, the bridge of my nose and forehead.

5. After having blended all of these products into my skin I used the Urban Decay all nighter setting spray to set my base. I prefer to use it at this stage rather than at the end of my makeup because I find it makes my foundation last longer. 

6. I then took the Rimmel Stay Matte powder and applied this to my face to set my base and keep it matte. I like to use a beauty blender to apply the powder to my eyelids, undereyes, nose and forehead to keep these areas extra matte and then I use the real techniques bold metals '100' powder brush to dust the powder onto other areas of my face. 

7. Moving on to bronzer, I took the Too Faced milk chocolate soleil bronzer and applied this with the real techniques multitask brush to my cheeks, and sides of my face to warm up my face.

8. Following this I of course had to use my all time favourite blush. A powder blush in the shade 'Orchid Rose -15' by Chanel; which I applied to the apples of my cheeks with a Mac 168 brush.

9. To finish my base I took the becca shimmering skin perfector in the shade 'Opal' and applied this with the real techniques fan brush. I applied this highlighter to my cheekbones, cupid's bow and the tip of my nose.

Eyebrows

1. To outline the shape of my eyebrows I used the Anastasia Beverly Hills DipBrow pomade in the shade 'taupe' with a zoevea 317 brush. I used this to fill in the middle and outer part of my eyebrow.

2. I then took the Benefit precisely my brow pencil in the shade '2' to draw the start of my eyebrow on and fill this in so it's not as intense and I can create a shape I prefer.

3. To finish, I used the Benefit Gimme Brow in the medium '3' shade to plump up my eyebrows a bit and make them slightly fuller.



Eyes

1. To create this look I took the shade 'white chocolate' from the Too Faced Chocolate Bar palette and applied it all over my lid and up to my brow bone. This is a cream shade that acts as a perfect base colour and subtle brow bone highlight. I used the zoeva 234 brush to apply this.

2. I then took the shade 'Cherry Cordial' from that same palette and applied this throughout my crease. This is a maroon shade which is what I wanted to base the look around.

3. Having blended this evenly, I took some of the shade 'Milk Chocolate' and ran this through my crease to make the shade slightly less red.

4. I then took a little bit of 'Triple Fudge' and blended this just to the outer corner of my eye to deepen up the look.

5. I then took a smaller zoeva 237 brush and applied the shade 'Marzipan' from the inner part of my eye up to about two thirds of the way across my eyelid. I made sure to spritz my brush with a bit of Mac fix+ to ensure that I get the best pigmentation and colour pay off.

6. I then took my Kat Von D Tattoo Liner and drew a thin line across my upper lash line and winged it out at the corner.

7. I then applied a thin coat of mascara, I used the maybelline lash sensational mascara, but pretty much any mascara will do.

8. Once the mascara had dried I took the Kiss '03' lashes and applied these to each eye. I then used another outer corner lash which comes as part of the eyelure texture 117 lash set. This helped to make the look appear more dramatic and so that I had a fuller lash.

9. I then took my zoeva 230 pencil brush and took that same maroon shade mixed with 'triple fudge' and ran it underneath my eye on the lower lash liner (focusing on the outer part) to balance out the look.

10. I then finished by applying some more mascara to my bottom lashes.

Lips

1. For lips I decided to wear my Kat Von D everlasting liquid lipstick in the shade 'Lolita'.

2. To darken this slightly I paired it with the NYX soft matte lip cream in the shade 'Rome'.


Drugstore Alternatives

So that is the look I will probably be wearing a lot for the next few months. If you want to recreate a similar look but don't want to splurge on some of the higher end products then I would recommend that you switch some of them out with these drugstore alternatives.

Nars Sheer Glow Foundation - Revlon ColorStay Foundation 
Too Faced Born This Way Concealer - L'Oreal True Match Concealer
Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil Bronzer - Soap and Glory Solar Powder Bronzer
Chanel Blush - Max Factor Creme Puff Blush in '10 - Nude Mauve'
Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector - MUA highlighter in the shade 'Iridescent Gold'

Anastasia Beverly Hills DipBrow Pomade - Freedom Eyebrow Pomade
Benefit Gimme Brow - Eylure Brow Amplifier

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette - I Heart Makeup 'I Heart Chocolate' Palette
Kat Von D Tattoo Liner - Maybelline Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner

American Beauty Haul / First Impressions

Hi lovelies, as promised on my previous post; I have a little haul for you today where I will be sharing with you the beauty bits that I purchased whilst on holiday. I have tried out some of them already so there will be a few first impressions thrown in there. Let me know if you've tried out any of these because I love hearing other people opinions on products! Hope you enjoy


NYX

Firstly, these are some of the NYX products that I picked up. If you know me, you'll know that I am a pretty big fan of the nyx lip products. I already had a few of the soft matte lip creams and was loving them, so of course I had to pick up some more! The colours I chose were 'Stockholm', 'Cairo', 'Budapest' and 'Istanbul'. So far I'm not the biggest fan of Istanbul, it's quite a bold pink shade to what I'm used to so its not really in my comfort zone. I find 'Cairo' to be slightly too nude when I wear it alone, so it looks slightly like foundation lips.  However, I think it could be nice to pair with a darker shade to create an ombré effect. As for 'Stockholm'; I am loving it! it's such an everyday shade that is really easy to wear with any makeup look. I am also loving Budapest but I think I will get more wear out of in in the upcoming Autumn and Winter months!



I also picked up two of the NYX lingerie lipsticks. There weren't many colours in stock so I only picked up two and the shades are '01 - Honeymoon' and '05 - Beauty Mark'. They aren't as opaque as the nyx liquid suede formala, which is my favourite, however you can layer it up to get a deeper colour. I prefer the shade '05 - Beauty Mark' as it is slightly more purple toned. Whereas, '01 - Honeymoon' is pretty grey toned and makes me look really washed out and pale.

The next item I chose was the NYX pore filler primer. Having tried this I can say that I am really impressed. It's pretty similar to benefits porefessional (but much cheaper). I think I may actually prefer this, although I would have to try it out more to say for definite.

The last product I picked up from NYX was their Tame & Frame tinted brow pomade. I picked up the shade '01 - Blonde' because the other shades looked to dark for me. I have tried this out and honestly I really wouldn't recommend it. First off, the colour match wasn't great at all, it was far too light for my brows. I'm also not a big fan of the texture, it felt rather waxy and didn't last very long when I wore it. It doesn't even come close to the Anastasia Dip Brow Pomade in my opinion! Another downside to this is that there is very little product in the actual container so I wouldn't say you get your money's worth at all!

MILANI

I picked up 3 blushes from Milani. Two of which are baked blushes; I picked up the shades '03 - Berry Amore' and '09 - Red Vino'. The other is a powder blush and is in the shade '01 - Romantic Rose'. This is my favourite out of the three because the colour is gorgeous. I love the packaging of all of these blushes, Milani have done very well to make a drugstore brand look pretty luxurious. I also love how the powder blush actually looks like a flower, I think that's such a cute idea. I haven't really tried out the baked blushes yet but from swatching them they appear to be very glittery, so I'm not too sure whether I will like them or not!



I also chose a lipliner in the shade '04 - All Natural'. This is such a pretty colour and is very similar to Mac's velvet teddy lipstick, but slightly more brown than pink toned.



COVERGIRL

From Covergirl I only picked up a couple of things. One of which was a mascara. The last time I went to America I got the clump crusher mascara because I'd heard people raving about it and I liked it at the time but I have discovered better mascaras since then. The one I picked up this time was the 'Full Lash Bloom' waterproof mascara. Now if I'm honest the only real reason I chose this was because it was in a pink bottle (silly, I know) but I hadn't really heard anyone mention it before. However, having tried this I wouldn't really recommend it. I didn't really find that it did much for my lashes. I found that the wand was a lot sharper than other mascara wands and it hurt quite a lot when I caught my eye accidentally.

The other product I picked up was the 'stay luminous' foundation. Again, I hadn't really heard anyone mention this before so I just picked it up hoping for the best. To my surprise I really like this foundation. I've only worn it a couple of times so far, but so far so good! It has a medium to full coverage and can be built up even more without looking too thick. It even lasted all day on my skin when i was in Florida when it was super hot! Of course I used a primer and setting spray aswell, but I was still super impressed with how long the foundation lasted. That was definitely a good pick!



RIMMEL

I only picked up one lipstick from Rimmel and it was the shade 14 from the Kate Moss collection. It's a really pretty nude/pink shade which is fairly natural looking, just like most of my lipsticks. It has quite a glossy finish so doesn't last too long on the lips but it doesn't wear off badly at all.

MAYBELLINE

The last time I went to America I remember looking at this foundation and really wanting it so this time I decided to try it out. I haven't yet used it but I'm a big fan of the concealer so if it's as good as that then I'm pretty sure I'll like it!

I also chose a lipstick in the shade '655 - Daringly Nude'. This is a gorgeous pinky nude shade which is matte. However, when I apply it it doesn't look as nice on the lips which is a shame. I probably wouldn't buy this again because there are many better alternatives!

REVLON

Whilst browsing the revlon stand there were three things that stood out to me, one of which was a powder which if I remember correctly, I think I've heard Tanya Burr taking about before. I also picked up a colorstay concealer. I haven't really tried out the powder or concealer properly so I don't have an opinion on these yet.

The last item I chose was the 'Ultra HD matte lip colour'. I chose the shade '645 - Eternité' because it looked really natural and wearable for everyday. So far I am really liking this lip product, it's pretty easy to apply and lasts for a while because it's a matte formula.



LASHES

As you can see, I picked up three sets of eyelashes. The Ardell 'Wispies' are by far my favourites. I used to be obsessed with the 'Demi Wispies' but I now prefer a more dramatic lash and these are just perfect. I also picked up the Vegas Nay 'Grand Glamour' lashes, now these are sooo intense! When I wore them you couldn't even see my eyeshadow or eyeliner when my eyes were open. However, part of me still likes them for some reason! I've also picked up a set of Kiss lashes, but I haven't yet tried these out.



ESSIE

Essie nail polishes are my favourites by far, so of course I had to pick up some more. I chose 6 in total, 3 from the gel formula and 3 of the original formula. The shades I got in the original formula (shown in the photo from left to right) were 'lady like', 'sand tropez' and 'topless & barefoot'. The shades from the gel formula (shown in the photo from left to right) were 'take me to thread', 'pinned up' and 'sew me'. I haven't yet used these but I know I will love them because I love all my other Essie polishes.



STILA

I believe it was Lily Pebbles who I heard raving about the Stila Liquid Lipsticks and I trust her makeup recommendations completely so I knew I would like this product. I picked up the shade 'Caramello' which is a really nude shade. I like to pair this with a darker liquid lipstick to create an ombré effect on the lips. I'm so pleased I got this because I wear it quite a lot now.

The other item I picked up from Stila was the 'Perfect Me, Perfect Hue' Eye and Cheek palette in 'fair/light'. I haven't yet used this yet but the eyeshadows and blushes look super pretty so I'm really excited to try it out.

BUXOM

I haven't ever tried anything from Buxom before but I have heard so many good things about these lip glosses. I have the shade 'Kitty' which is a browny toned shade. I'm not too sure if I like it that much though because it feels quite strange on the lips. When you first apply the gloss its just normal then after a few seconds it starts tingling. I thought this would stop after a while but it doesn't and I can really feel the product on my lips the whole time I'm wearing it, which personally I really don't like in a lip product.


TARTE

Whilst browsing Sephora I saw this mascara and I believe it was Fleur (https://www.youtube.com/user/FleurDeForce) who I have heard raving about this product, so its safe to say that I have pretty high hopes for this as I really trust her recommendations. I haven't yet tried anything from Tarte so I'm not sure how I will get on with; but it does have some good reviews so hopefully I will like it!

BECCA

Ever since getting the Shimmering Skin Perfector in 'moonstone' have been obsessed with it and I knew I wanted to get my hands on another highlighter as soon as possible. I originally wanted to get Champagne Pop because everyone seems to be in love with that shade. However, when I swatched them all in store the shade 'Opal' looked more appealing to me. I'm so pleased I purchased it now because it is honestly so beautiful. I love wearing both moonstone and opal together because my highlight is just glowing, this is probably my favourite purchase out of everything!
