Impatient..

I am well and truly fed of up of living in places I can't decorate. Sure duvet covers, pillows and cushions, books and ornaments make the world of difference and allow you firmly put your stamp on a new place but it's just not the same as having somewhere of my own.

 I'm certainly not ready to enter into the big wide world of being a fully fledged adult, I am more than happy to wait a while before I have to deal with a 9-5 and bills and all those other terribly boring aspects of being adult. Having my own place though? That bit can't come soon enough!

Pinterest has been a guilty pleasure of mine for a while now, somehow I just lose hours on there! Recently there's been a decidedly interior decor focus on what I've been pinning, I just can't stop lusting over some people's beautiful homes!

Big headboards, Gallery Photo Walls, Accent Walls, Quirky details and a decidedly 'white' base are definitely recurring themes. These are just a couple of my favourite pictures I've pinned recently. I'd love a big window seat - something about sitting right in the window just seems super cosy and romantic.. just me? 

Tell me I'm not the only one who cannot wait to have my own place I can decorate how I please, and fill with my own collection of bits and pieces! Even if it's a tiny studio, having my own place seems to symbolise so much freedom. Let me know your thoughts :) 

Mac Studio Sculpt Foundation

This has been my foundation of choice for the past six months (since I first bought it) so it’s about time I finally got around to writing a review on it!

Mac describes this as ''a medium coverage foundation with a natural matte finish'' and I think that’s pretty accurate. beacuse it's so pigmented it's really easy to build this up for a full coverage look and you need less than a pea sized amount for medium coverage!
On the downside if you want a sheer coverage you'd have to add some moisturiser.
You can get this for £23 online from the Mac website or from pretty much any department store.

The reason I first picked this up was because I struggled to find a foundation that matched my skin tone, and if you have difficulty finding the perfect colour I'd definately recomend mac as in this foundation they offerMac offer 24 different shades ranging from NW and NC 15 right up to NW55 so you’re found to find one shade which works with your skin.

My skin is pretty normal, verging on dry in winter and oily in summer and I’ve used this throughout winter and it hasn’t dried my skin out, or emphased dry patches while in the recent warm weather it’s kept everything matte and prevented shine :)

Overall this really is a great all purpose foundation which I can imagine suiting a whole range of skin types so I suggest you definitely take a look next time you pass a Mac counter as I know I’m going to be repurchasing this!

Hope this has been helpful!! X

P.S despite the high pigmentation it’s really easy to buff this into your skin to create a ‘no-make-up’ look!
