Depending on what you're trying to do, there are a whole host of contour Kardashian style products available but what's best for the every day natural contour look?
New to stores this month is the Sleek Cream Contour Palette. What's new with that you might think? We've seen sculpt and glow palettes before, right? The trick, my friends, is all in the cream formula. OOOOOH CREAM FORMULA - the marmite of makeup. Some people love them, some people hate them

Create Your Own Cheekbones with Sleek Cream Contouring Palette
Summer makeup for me is all about the glow. No, not the J-Lo perfume I wore when I was like 15 (lol), I'm thinking shimmery bronzed skin and dewy metallic cheeks. Beach and cocktails not mandatory but preferred.
For a healthy glow, cream blush is often the best but my oily skin is fussy and prefers a powder. So powder bronzer/highlighters trial it is then!

MAC Skinfinish Dupe From The Beauty Aisle At Tesco
The long wait is over! After almost a month off blogging and three sofas later, I am finally in my new flat! More importantly I now have INTERNET!! What did we do before Wifi, seriously?
SD cards finally found in that special place I put them so I wouldn't forget (and then forgot), blogging camera now charged - the return to blogging can begin!!
And what is a better way to celebrate a return to blogging than a big beauty blog haul?! Two words - BICESTER VILLAGE.

BACK TO BLOGGING! A Big Cosmetics Company Haul From Bicester Village
There comes that time in your life where you start to make a more permanent move from Tesco Value to Tesco Finest and, for me, it's the same with makeup.
Let me tell you what I mean. Although I've dabbled in the occasional Lancome or Benefit product, I've spent the majority of my makeup years buying beauty-aisle brands and online budget beauty. As I've progressed with my career I've started to branch out but the big leap from high-street to high end can only be immortalised by one brand - and that's Chanel.
That's right - it's taken me a few years to get here but this month I bought my first bit of Chanel Beauty. A little healthy-glow compact which came with it's own velvet pouch. Say what?! How have I not gone high-end sooner?
What is this MASTERPIECE before me?
This, dear friends, is the new addition to the Chanel Les Beiges collection and the latest addition to my make up bag!

My First Chanel Beauty Buy! Les Beiges Multi-Colour Compact
With the sun very slowly making it’s way out, it’s time to start thinking about summer beauty essentials and bringing out the products which get pushed to the back of cabinet over winter - the most obvious of which begins with a B…and ends with RONZER.
Yes yes, clever you for guessing, I’m talking about that ultimate shimmery hit of tan which indicates lots of time spent outdoors, doing something extravagantly healthy like volleyball or hiking in the country, or, if you’re less actively-inclined (like me), your tan is obviously gained by stylishly lazing on a nearby coast.
I actually tan quite evenly and easily – the only ever time I had sunburn, I genuinely thought that I’d just suffered an allergic reaction to something!! I kid you not.
Therefore, I’ve only really used matt bronzers before - y'know, for contouring and adding a bit of brahhn and colour to my otherwise uninteresting skin. However, the last winter has really been, what I like to call, an epiphany of glow! I’ve gone from a matte-finish fanatic to a dewy skin seeker. AND, if that wasn’t enough of a change – my promotion last year also means that I can finally treat myself to the occasional high end beauty product! Nice one.

With me so far? Cheap, matte bronzers 2013, fancy, glowy bronzers 2014! I feel like a beautiful bronzed butterfly emerging from the ashes. But what’s the product that I’ve gone for this time?
It’s only the infamous Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick (complete with mini Bobbi Brown Face Blender Brush) HIYA.
And the good news is.... I'M GIVING ONE AWAY TOO!

MIZSPA GIVEAWAY! Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick
When it comes to my everyday makeup face, I’m loving the dewy, glowing look these days. Namely because the evils of winter weather have dulled my skin and also because glowing skin makes me look a lot healthier outside than my normal McDonalds & mojitos diet would suggest.. (seriously though, LOVE a late night Mcdonalds after a couple of mojitos)
So, let’s not beat about the b(l)ush – here it is!
The elf Cosmetics Cream Blush and Bronzer. I know Im totally cheating because really, it’s two products into one case, but hey – IT’S TWO PRODUCTS in ONE CASE – what could be bad about that?!
Yes, yes, I know I've committed the cardinal blogging sin and taken pictures after it's been used but hey - I'm only human. I rush to use new products straight away, and deal with consequences later. Take THAT blogging etiquette!
My Initial thoughts?
