Facial Friday Catchup- Masks

I recently bought a clay face mask from Botanics, and I tried it out for the first time yesterday. It was quite good but it made skin feel almost painfully tight afterwards. What I really want is a blackhead mask, I've tried the strips and the facewashes so hopefully there is a mask out there for me :) do you guys have an favourite face masks/recommendations?

Catch up post!!

Facial Friday:
All over the catwalks there has been a wash of neutrals or "no make-up make-up". My personal take on this trend is to do a brown eye with a hint of white at the corners to open the eye. Here is my attempt at it



Sketch Saturday: It was sunny this saturday and so my sketch was pretty summer influenced, shorts etc. I drew quite a lot but this is the only one that made the cut. I kept getting the cut of the clothes wrong or giving the model really strangely proportioned bodies.




My Wall revamp (sunday's post):
Every month or so I rip down pictures from my wall and put up new ones (mainly from Elle)
This is my wall at the moment, I have some old ones from when I first got into fashion and bought my first EVER Elle but the majority are pretty recent.





Wishlist Wednesday: Make-up
Maybelline Pure Mineral Foundation
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner
Brushes by Laura Mercier, Bobbi Brown or Body Shop
Aussie Hair Care Aussome Texturising Conditioning Gel Spray

Facial Friday- Products

I try not too use too many different things on my face, I once read something by Bobbi Brown that dissuaded me, and the things I do use I try to make sure that they don't clash too much as this can result in combination skin.
Products I <3 :
Neutrogena Visibly Clear toner, make-up remover, cleanser and moisturiser for face,
Nivea Soft moisturiser for body,
Rimmel Matte Finish powder,
Max Factor concealer,
Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara,
Maybelline twist kohl
Bourjeois eyeshadows
Natural Collection blush and clear mascara (for brows).

I also love Rimmel's eyeshadow gel pots because they double up as great liquid/gel eyeliners with the right brushes, and my friend Anna (she's like a make-up geek) tells me that Lancome does the best mascara, Urdan Decay is good for primers, Mac and Nars do great colour ranges for everything and she shops at them the most, also Benefit does a good selection of highlighters and blushes-she recommends 10 for an easy contouring kit.

Phew! got this posted about 20 mins before midnight so it's still officially Friday. My exams have finished today so my posts are going to be getting a little longer (hopefully) and I'll try to get more pictures up from now on... But right now I'm going to sleep as I have to get up in 7 hours to go to work.
