Seven Deadly Sins of Beauty Tag!

7 deadly sins of beauty tag!

Hi guys, I've hit a brick wall with my creativity lately due to being super busy with my freelancing! However my lovely friend Emily suggested that I should do this tag and I thought, how creative! So here goes...


GREED: What is your inexpensive beauty item? What is your most expensive?
Inexpensive would probably be my MUA lipstick (it's only £1!) and most expensive would either be my RCMA Foundation palette.
WRATH: What beauty products do you have a love/hate relationship with?

MAC Studio Fix Fluid! It's my favourite foundation ever but sometimes it just wont work with me!!
Urban Decay eyeshadows - they're so beautiful but the fall out is cryable at times.
Anastasia B.H. Dipbrow Pomade. I use it everyday but it dries so fast and is SO patchy!

GLUTTONY: What are your most delicious beauty products?
Too faced Chocolate Bar palette, it smells like chocolate! SLOTH: What beauty products do you neglect due to laziness?

SKINCARE!! I am guilty as charged with this one.


PRIDE: What beauty product gives you the most self confidence? 

BROWS and foundation and contour, awww yeaaah.
LUST: What products are you currently lusting over?

MUFE highlighter in number two, Becca's Moonstone, the MUFE primers and a gazillion MAC products. ENVY: What items would you most like to receive as a gift?

I am grateful for any gift so anything would be fabulous! 

I challenge all of you wonderful ladies to do the tag aswell!! (Especially Emily)

How did I live with out this!?

How did I live with out this!?

Hi guys! Super sorry about my absence but i've been relentlessly busy with my freelance make-up work! I've got some exciting stories about my freelance work including working on a tv production set - if you're interested in my experiences let me know as i'm thinking of starting up an 'experience sundays' series for you lovelies.

I'm honestly shocked that I havn't purchased this holy grail sooner, I'm pretty sure its a staple in everyone's make-up routine (especially the professionals, Charleigh). It's a ... Translucent Powder! Honestly guys, what was I doing with my life before I had this marvellous creation in my paws?!













I picked up the MAC Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder, purely due to the fact I needed to go to MAC anyway and Debenhams has a 10% off all beauty products (not to mention the 5£ stashed away on my beauty card). I honestly love this powder. It can get a little messy though so please don't open them near to your lovely new clothes girlies!

This powder is a setting powder that goes on completely translucent despite its white colour. It's lightweight and silky smooth, I also find that it blurs perfections and pores as well as setting make-up and keeping the shine at bay (for you oily babes out there!). That being said I have VERY dry skin and use this to stop that 'sticky' feeling high-coverage foundations sometimes can give and it doesn't cake me up or cling AT ALL - huge bonus!

Happy shopping my babes,
Charleigh xo
