Product no#1 M.A.C Satin Lipstick A91 Spirit
♥ Review: I just got this product as a present from my special someone. It was 18 euros. A bit pricey if you ask me but after using it for a couple of days, I really think it is worth the money. The color is pink/brownish. It is quiet natural. I think is it similar to the color of our natural lips but then more intense. It has a soft moisterising texture. When I was looking through the MAC lipstick stand, there were many colors, I had swatches all over my hand but this color stood out the most to me, I think it is the intense pink look. While standing beside the lipstick stand I realized because of the heat of the lamp on the lipsticks, they were melting which gave the lipstick more of an intense look. However while I got it, it was in a dry cupboard and that made it harder for me to apply the actual color.
♥ 1 pro & 1 con: I really love the fact that this is MAC, so the quality is extremely high. The lipstick is long lasting and that is what is great about MAC. However, it makes my lips much dryer than they are. So without vaseline or any other kind of lip balm, it makes my lips look really dry which is again, not so good.
♥ Recommendation: I recommend this lip color for an everyday spring/summer shade as the color as well as the quality is very high. It might be an issue for the pricey-ness of this product, but believe me, it is worth it. Just make sure you have a lip vaseline at all times;)
♥ Out of 5 stars I will give it a : ★★★★
Product no#2
Rimmel London Natural Bronzer
♥1 pro& 1 con: It is a beautiful color and it makes my cheeks appear much higher. However, it takes a lot of time to settle in, I mean I have to really dip up some powder to get it in.
♥Recommendation: I would recommend this for people with a bit lighter skin, however not too light. About cheryl cole's skin tone, it would suit the best.
♥ Out of 5 stars I give it a ★★★.
Product #3
Catrice Ultimate Nude Nail Polish
♥ Review: I have an obsession for nude nail colors for some odd reason. This one caught my eyes as it was such a light color. It was very cheap, for two nail colors I had to only pay 4 euros!! Deal it was, I got this one and a very bright yellow. This one really matches my nude/natural make-up collection I guess. It is quiet liquidy is you ask me. The brush is think and allows the nail polish to get on to the nails easily. It is light which I think is great for a summer day!
♥ 1 pro& 1 con: I really like the fact the nail drys so quickly, believe me, I put it on and I think about a minute or two later it was completely dry! However it is quiet liquidy and watery which causes it to come on very lightly and then only two coats are not enough. I really think about 3 to 4 coats will make it better.
♥ Recommendation: This product is not one of the first choices I must admit, I mean the color is great but if I had a choice I would rather chose a different brand because maybe it might be not too watery.
♥ Out of 5 stars I give this product : ★★

L'oreal Paris Blush
♥ Review: I got this blush as a present from my mum about a year ago for my 15th birthday. I fell in love with it, because of the fact it suited my face and it gave my cheeks a very pink intense dark look. It is still about 12 euros as it was last year! So I think is has a good deal because the shade is very nice.
♥1 pro& 1 con: The color gives the cheeks a very nice pink shade however I think that is not very long lasting, I bike to school and that causes it to simply not stay on my cheeks so I usually put it back on when I am at school.
♥Recommendation: I recommend this blush a million times because it is my favourite one and if you chose the right shade, it will look great as an evening or night look! So get it NOW!!

Catrice Ultimate Color 010 Be Natural Lipstick
 |
| Note: The one on the bottom is the MAC satin A91 Spirit, it is mentioned at the 1st product! |
♥ Review: I got this lipstick as a everyday natural shade from Catrice. It was for only 4 euros, which I thought was a great deal. The color is very natural and the shade it gets is very light. However only one light coat should be enough for this lip color because if you add more than one layer, it will look like foundation lips which is not bad ofcource, but if you are looking for natural looks it might not be the best idea!
♥ 1 pro& 1 con: It is cheap and one layer is enough for the natural look however too much of it can make it look not so natural anymore, so be careful.
♥ Recommendation: I would recommend it for a day where you are wearing tons of foundation so it can blend in and maybe a transparent lip gloss will make it much better looking!

Product #6
Maybelline SuperStay PowerGloss 12 Hour color shine
♥ Review: I have seen this color on so many front covers of magazines when I got this. The month I got it, Jennifer Aniston was wearing it on her front cover of Glamour Magazine! It was about 11 euros. It is double sided, in which one is the color and the second or back side has the top coat I could say which gives it an extra shine. The color looks quiet dark on the pigment but in real it is much lighter and neutral.
♥ 1 pro& 1 con: It has the gloss to shimmer up the whole look and the color itself is great for any occasional really. But, I realised that after wearing this for two to three hours, it dries out and there is no shimmer or shine at all to the lips so if you do buy it, make sure you have it with you 24/7 incase the shine runs out! (y)
♥ Recommendation: I would recommend this shade for a person who works at an office, as it can give the glowing effect. It is not very school like, but I mean if you have a prom or whatever, this is a great way to lighten up your whole outfit!

Maybelline 24 Hour SuperStay 049 Liquid Foundation
♥ Review: This is one of my first foundations that I started using, since I got serious into make up. I started last year when I was almost 15 and just moved from England. I really got inspired by YouTube videos and searched up some good foundations. This one had many positive comments about it, I mean I did not want to straight of jump into MAC and Urban Decay if you know what I mean. So I got this from my mum again, it was about 16 euros, and now I believe Maybelline has it on sale and it is about 10 euros. It is a bit lighter as you can see than my actual skin. I think it looks even lighter because I did not smudge it about on this picture. This foundation is great ones it suits your skin. I really like it because it is very light and does not cake up my face. It helps me to conceal my dark circles and since I sometimes wear my glasses, I have lots of dark spots around my eyes and nose. And this foundation really helps me cover it up. One layer is enough for me really, but I mean for an everyday it is more than enough but if you are going out maybe two or three layers might give it a better glam.
♥ 1 Pro& 1 con: As I mentioned, one layer is more than enough for full coverage however, this foundation well not just this one but any liquid foundation looks better with a bit of powder to it.
♥ Recommendation: I recommend this foundation for all of you who just started taking make up seriously like I did a year ago. It helps you to cover your dark areas and it keeps your face even.
♥ Out of 5 stars I give this product a: ★★★★★ YES FINALLY 5 STARS!!
Now, these were all my products that I think are very neutral and light for the summer/spring 2012. Make sure you keep it natural, because the more natural the better!
