Munky says....I love these

Just two of my favourite things......!


Benetint 

I love love love this product! A bottle seems to last about a year, if not longer.  (Okay, possibly sounds a bit unhygienic but there's a limit to how red you can have your cheeks/lips!).

I've always struggled with powder blushes - just can't blend them to save my life.  I did try some cream blushes from MAC but they didn't work either - too much rubbing action required!  So some years back I found this and never looked back.  It gives a natural bit of colour - probably not enough for an evening out, but great for work/general wear.  I think everyone has their own way of applying it, but mine tends to be putting a few strokes of it on my face and then rubbing in with fingertips.  It's very liquid so no effort required.  I like it as a lip-stain too, but it can be a bit drying.  Which brings me nicely to:

Carmex!

 
It smells a bit medicinal, and it gives you a strange tingling feeling when you first apply it, but it's the only lip balm I've come across that actually works for me.  Nothing fancy about it whatsoever, but I wouldn't be without it!

In other fabulous news, I've finally found the handbag I was after for aaaaaaaages.  Pics next post!

  1. I love Benetint too but I get what you mean about it being a bit drying on the lips, I usually apply a bit of vaseline on my lips first so it doesn't dry up too much! nice blog btw x
