Yep, yesterday I felt like absolute rubbish. My back was tweaked and after spending about 3 hours on the road driving, I was feeling less that pretty. I know for some, makeup means nothing, but for me on a crummy day a little makeup can totally perk up my mood. So here are my picks…
For the longest time I really couldn’t understand the hype around using a damp (and expensive) makeup sponge to blend foundation. I mean surely it didn’t work as well as buffing it in with a brush?
