DAY OF THE DEAD - Halloween 2015 Outfit & Half Skull Makeup

It's been a while since i've made an outfit posts, God do I miss them! T__T Anyway this is what I wore for Halloween 2015~ One of my favourite seasons as I can go all out with my makeup. The theme for the event we attended was Day of the Dead (but no one really stuck to it xD). Majority of people dressed as your typical Halloween costumes - The Joker, Vampire, Zombie, Cat etc. I partly stuck to theme with a half skull / skull mask makeup, I added faked blood as well because I thought it looked pretty damn good and so I won't as much like a basic. As for the outfit a wore a high low hem dress with harness detailing which suited the makeup and Halloween perfectly, even though it is supposed to me a formal.party dress.

Outfit Details:

Dress: MissGuided
Shoes: Topshop
Bag: Ted Baker

I also did matching half skull makeup with my bae and some of my other flatmates~ I call all my flatmates bae, it's kind of terrible because when I say bae a few of them answer me at the same time, or argue who's my top bae. Oops~ XD

Close up of makeup:

A few of my favourite pics to finish off this post and to remember this amazing night!

Happy belated halloween and happy bon fire night guys! I hope you all have an lovely and unforgettable time~ <3

Neutrogena Fine Fairness Lotion SPF 30 PA++ Review

YesStyle £14.90

I have a lot of hyper-pigmentation as a result of acne, so finding a good whitening/ fairness cream is essential to prevent future hyper-pigmentation and even out my skin tone. This lotion caught my eye in particular as it contains SPF30 PA++ (UV-A) & (UV-B) and has a double action formula~

There's 40 ml of product; it comes in a sturdy tube bottle with a pump and cap that covers the opening. The pump makes it hygienic and easy to dispense the amount of product you need. I usually use 2 to 3 pumps for my face; you can apply it to your neck and other areas too. It's recommended to use during daytime (before sun exposure), to prevent melanin production.

Product Description:

"A daily moisturizing whitening lotion that helps protect skin against melanin and uneven pigmentation for a healthy, fair and translucent glow.

Helps whiten skin from within : Neutrogena Healthy White Complex helps boost the whitening process and helps reduce the appearance of melanin and uneven pigmentation.
Helps protect skin from photo damage : UVA/UVB formula with SPF 30 helps to shield the skin from darkening and photo damage.

The lotion is lightweight and has a slightly runny consistency. It's not thick like majority of other sunscreens/lotions i've tried, my makeup applies smoothly on top too. Absorbs in rapidly, not sticky and does not leave any residue. Great for summer!~ It has a lovely subtle floral scent. Provides a decent amount of moisture, I still like to apply this on top of my moisturiser though because my skin is thirsty af. It does have a white case when you apply it but it disappears after a few seconds and makes your skin luminous with a healthy glow.

After using this for 3-4 weeks, I can definitely see that my acne scars have lightened a little, my skin tone is more even and fair. This is such a good product! It's basically a 2 in 1 (sunscreen and moisturiser); shields your skin nicely from harsh sun rays whilst providing skin benefits - moisture, fairness, brighter/more radiance with regular use. Due to it's lightweight nature, the lotion would be amazing during summer~ Highly recommend this~ ^.^

Rating: 8.5/10

If you want to try this out yourself, you can purchase it from YesStyle for £14.90~

Out of curiosity, have you try any whitening products? ^__^
Have a good day~

Innisfree No-Sebum Blur Powder Review

Innissfree HK $75 (£6.30)

Most people were interested in the No-Sebum Blur Powder from my Innisfree Haul so here it is! I am yet to try out the original No-Sebum Mineral Powder before I can compare them for you guys. ^^

Inspired by photoshop, Innisfree created a blur variation of their No Sebum Mineral setting powder to blur imperfections for smooth photoshopped-like skin. The Blur cost slightly more than the original Mineral version and is tinted.

It comes with 5g of product and a puff for application. The size makes it travel friendly; this is now a makeup essential I carry around everywhere!

The powder has lovely minty calming scent~ Fine and soft powder, very gentle on the skin. It's tinted with a natural skin tone colour, it only comes in one shade but should accommodate a range of skin tones as the shade is light and translucent. The tint makes my skin appear slightly brighter too.

Starting off with already applied BB cream~ I didn't use a base/primer so that you could see the effects.

I prefer to use a brush instead of the puff given. I simply shake the powder into the cap, pat my MAC powder brush on the dispensed product and then swipe to apply and set my makeup.

Results~

I have really large pores, as you can see from the photo above my pores have noticeably "blurred" and appear smaller. My skin texture looks smoother too. Although my skin isn't completely flawless, photoshopped effects in real life omg YASSSS. ( I want the Etude House Face Blur now! *^*)

Performance wise, it keeps my super oily face matte and controls oils for hours - LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! The best setting powder i've tried so far! My face usually gets oily again after 3-4 hours but this powder is seriously the bomb. I 100% recommend it to my oily skin friends, it's super affordable too, so no harm in giving it a try~ :')

Rating: 10/10
