Review: Match Perfection Concealer - Rimmel London

When hunting to find a concealer which was affordable and also the correct tone for me I came across Rimmel London's 'Match Perfection Skin Tone Adapting Concealer'.

 
There aren't enough words to explain how much I love this product but I'm going to try and tell you anyway. For only around £6 in stores this is a bargain.
 
The tube design means that you can get every last drop out meaning it lasts longer and therefore your money goes further. It also has a brush at the end where it squeezes out, I like this as it means you can put it on your hand instead of spreading germs all across your face whilst trying to cover any blemishes or redness.
Here is a swatch of the '010 ivory' shade.
 

Left - before and Right - after

In the pictures above I have compared the before and after effect of this product. You can notice clearly the redness and colour imperfections around my eye and nose as well as a blemish on my chin have been covered up very well. I wouldn't say the coverage is heavy but definitely long wear.
 
Another great product from Rimmel and I strongly urge people to try this out for only £6.
 
What's your favourite concealer? Maybe you've tried this product out already? Let me know in the comments below.

Make-Up Organization - Spring Cleaning

So, with New Year gone and Spring around the corner, it's time to start the cleaning. Don't worry, I'm going to make a series of posts to help you along and motivate you every week. From wardrobe organization to general cleaning. Today, I'm going to show you how I organized my make-up very simply


First, I chucked out any products I don't use 'Yes, I know the Benefit mascara was really good and expensive but you never use it and it's dried up anyway' was often used.


Then I separated my everyday make-up from my extravagant makeup and cleared out a drawer especially for it.


I then used this plastic divider to put the products I use everyday in different sections (mascara, face and lips) and chucked the other products in a basket that I can rummage through I needs be.

 
For my brushes I simply got an empty marmalade jar and washed it out thoroughly so I could put all my brushes in. A nice little touch and if you have time you could decorate it too.


Hope you've enjoyed this post. Let me know if you have any cute ideas and keep an eye out for more organization posts.
