So this week I was kindly asked to try out a few Bourjois products and let you lovelies know how I got on...and the result is pretty good! 

For years I've been wearing quite heavy foundations as I would regularly get bad break outs and would need a good coverage to disguise them and so I've never really wanted to buy a 'light' foundation, but after trying the City Radiance from Bourjois I am slightly converted! This foundation is made with an anti-dullness formula and radiance-boosting pigments all designed to even out the complexion, and the result? ... A gorgeous dewy/fresh faced look that feels so light on your skin. This morning (when this picture was taken) I had a little breakout so I just applied a little bit more foundation to that area and it covered it perfectly ☺️ 

I really love this foundation for day wear because it is so light & fresh and stays on all day, it ticks all the boxes for me I think my skin really enjoyed the break! 

Before applying the City Radiance Foundation I used the Happy Light Base Serum, this is a feather light primer that doesn't block your pores, instead it is designed to leave your skin soft and moisturised. This primer comes in 'Matt' and 'Luminous' and both basically do as the name suggests. 'Matt' mattifies the skin and refines pores and 'Luminous' illuminates and hydrates the skin and is perfect for anyone with normal - dry skin, I used the later of the two and it really helped to make my skin look so fresh 🙌🏻

Bourjois have a theme of refreshed and radiant looking skin throughout their product range ... Right down to their blush. I'll admit it took me a few goes before I got used to using a cream blush so here's a little tip, you only need a little pump of the Aqua Blush, do a big cheesy grin and start blending from your cheeks up in a diagonal line. This blush boosts the skins natural radiance and works well with the light foundation and illuminating primer.  

When going for a fresh look on your skin I think it is so important to make your eyes stand out and add a little bit of drama to the look. I used the 'Volume 1 Seconde Mascara', with a specially designed brush that is inspired by professional hairstyling brushes to allow for clump free 360 degree volume. To get the best out of this mascara apply in  Zig Zag motion on both the top and bottom lashes. 

I used the Rouge Edition Liquid Laque on my lips in shade '09' and absolutely loved it! It's non sticky  formula glides on so easily and feels so light on! Another little benefit of the Liquid Laque is that it contains Nymphaea extract to smooth and moisturise, as well as this is doeson't run so there's no need to apply Lipliner... For this look I used the New Effect 3D Lipgloss to add some shimmer (although there was really no need, I was just trying out a different look 🙊). The 3D lipgloss also contains hydrating and moisturising agents while still giving a voluminous and super shiny result 😁 

All in all I am so impressed by these products, I love having such fresh feeling skin and the best part is that all these products complement each other leaving your  skin and lips hydrated and moisturised .
