Daisy's Makeup Bag: February 2013

So here is Thursday's Post lets just jump right in!

Silly Me!- I am such a fail at everyday blogging but last week I was busy and then Monday I was lazy but on Tuesday I had my options evening :/ and I was busy yesterday clearing out my Grandad's flat and generally lazy But yeah I will try from now on to keep to the everyday.

An Abundance of posts:

So I will be doing several posts in one to make up for missing it so I need to do Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (All the days I have missed) But instead I am doing two reviews and the three posts below :)

Friday Posts:
Fragrance Friday: Exclamation Perfume
First Impression: Rimmel Apocolips Celestial

Sunday post:
January Favorites

So now I have decided that part one will be up today of 'an abundance of posts' and part 2 will be tomorrow: I will do 2 reviews today.

So lets get started.

Urban Decay Naked palette:
This is the most famous thing ever in the beauty blogger world, and I finally jumped on the band wagon and I got this for christmas and I must say I love it.

There are two pictures, one of the palette itself and then swatches. Although this palette is expensive its completely worth it, it contains all the warm toned shadows you will ever need in one convenient palette! Virgin, Sin, Naked, Sidecar and Buck are very subtle and quite hard to make show up, but from half baked onward the shadows are extremely well pigmented and gorgeous don't get me wrong the other shades are lovely as well in fact I wear them more as I am a subtle eyeshadow kind of girl depending on the look I guess. The stars of the show for me are virgin, sin, sidecar, half baked, smog and toasted. This palette is definitely worth the hype and money so if your on the fence I would pick it up.

Soap and Glory Show Good face foundation:
I got this foundation as a gift from a friend and I have the lightest shade (the fairest of them all) there are 6 shades and I think it is a very good colour range, because there are neutral toned shades, warm toned shades and cool toned shades, however the shades don't go very dark or particularly pale so I guess thats a down side but I think that mostly this foundation shade range is quite good.

What the foundation claims:

*2-in-1 skin energizing foundation & primer

*gives a dewy, bright, flawless finish

*silky liquid texture

*longwear

*supernaturally flawless finish

*spf 15

I actually use this as my daily foundation but I have to disagree with some of its claims and I won't repurchase this for the following reasons:

its £11.

I like to change up my foundations.

But onto the up and down sides to the foundation, it is light coverage and had a dewy finish but wearable on oily skin like mine however it definitely doesn't have a primer in it at all or if it does it doesn't work on my skin I feel like without powder and/or primer it lasts about an hour and a half/two hours it does have a dewy finish, it doesn't do much in the brightening department, not a flawless finish because if your heavy handed then it can look a tad cakey.

Ok so that was mostly negative but now onto the positives, I love that this is lightweight for those days where you want something on but not much and I like to wear it at school, the dewy finish works on oily skin not making you look even more shiny so that's good, with powder it adds about an hour and I haven't tried it with a primer but I will keep using it until it runs out gladly, its lightweight and build-able up to a certain point, a little bit goes a long way.
