Revlon Photoready Blush in Coral Reef went straight into my basket when I spotted it in Boots. I love peachy, coral-y blushes so this one looked perfect! In the packaging it looks like quite a bright colour, but when swatched it becomes lovely and sheer, giving a healthy glow to the skin. Coral Reef is a cream blush, which blends really nicely and is a perfect daytime blush. The lasting power of this is pretty average, it's nothing to rave about but I've experienced a lot worse. It can't be too bad as I've been reaching for this everyday lately, and I think that will continue long into Spring as the colour is so fresh and versatile!
Can you recommend any cream blushes with good staying power?

I picked up a few Revlon bits in Boots a few weeks ago and I've been loving them. I'm really impressed with Revlon's lip products, and actually I'm just quite fond of the brand in general! I bought the Colorburst Lipgloss and Revlon Lip Butter and have worn nothing else on my lips ever since! The colours look lovely together and separately and are both really versatile.
I got the Colorburst Lipgloss in the colour Strawberry, which is actually a lot more pink than the photo suggests. In the tube, the gloss looks like it's packed with shimmer, but this doesn't transfer on to the lip too much. The formula isn't sticky and glides on smoothly. I can't say this lasts very long on the lips, but then again not many lip glosses do! It's longevity is pretty average. I can see myself wearing this gloss a lot, it's a really wearable day to day colour, with just enough brightness to make it interesting!
Next I got the Revlon Lip Butter in Sweet Tart. Sweet Tart is a bright pink colour, which can be used lightly to give a sweep of colour on the lips, or built up for a bolder look. When the Lip Butters were first released a few years ago I had quite a few, and loved them! But since then I'd completely forgotten they existed. I'm so glad I spotted this and rediscovered Lip Butters. The formula is soft, moisturising, and lovely to apply. Again, the longevity of these isn't too long. I find this fades quite quickly, but does leave a flush of colour on the lips.

I so wish I'd got swatches for these, but taking swatch photos is a lot harder than I imagined! I'll try again next time.

I know this is pretty old news now, but I recently re-discovered Maybelline's Fit Me Foundation in my makeup drawers. I'd ran out of the YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat foundation (Which I love!) and thought I'd try and use up some of my countless half-full foundations before buying another. I've really been enjoying using this, and thought I'd write a post incase anyone else's memory need re-jogging about how nice this drugstore foundation can look!

Application
The first thing I noticed when applying this was how natural it looks. Its quite a light coverage, but also build-able. I really feel like this foundation is just slightly improving the look of my skin, rather than completely covering it. It looks quite fresh, although not dewy, it isn't a matte finish either, I'd say its a perfect medium.

Longevity
I'd say the longevity of this foundation is acceptable. It lasts for as long as I need it to, on a typical day going to uni I find it's still on my face by the time I get home. I'll be honest, I wouldn't have high hopes if I was doing something a little more strenuous, but then again I haven't tried it, maybe I'd be surprised!

Packaging
For a drugstore foundation I think the packaging of Maybelline's Fit Me is really sleek and classy looking. It's in a glass bottle which really helps with the up-market feel. The only thing I would say could be improved is the stickers showing the colour and name of the foundation. After a while they start lifting at the edges and ruin the nice look of the packaging. Maybe this would be better if they were printed on the actual bottle rather than stickers?

Price
At £7.99 the price of this is really reasonable. The quality for money is pretty impressive, and they don't appear to have skimped out on the packaging really.

Overall
For the price, I honestly couldn't fault anything about this foundation. I've found it to be a lovely everyday foundation that I enjoy applying and wearing. I'd definitely recommend this! You can buy Maybelline Fit Me foundation here.
