Bobbi Brown foundation shade

From various reviews it is strongly evident that  a lot of dark skinned ladies have difficulties finding the right shades especially when it comes to foundations. This is something that I truly relate to because I used to face similar difficulties. I ended up spending money trying out different brands because I was not a fan of mixing and matching and I was just so determined to find one that was close enough to wear without having to constantly mixing it with other shades. Although I was an NW43 in mac studio fix fluid and completely loved the full coverage it was still a bit too light and looked a bit ashy sometimes. I wont even talk about the results when I tried the NC range because it was just horrible and I quickly had to give it away.

A friend then recommended Bobbi Brown foundation to me  stating that it gave good results for dark skin with yellow undertones. Based on my own research I decided to try the Bobbi Brown Natural finish long lasting foundation and the stick foundation in the shade Warm Almond . To set it I bought the skin foundation mineral makeup in medium dark and added the creamy concealer in golden.

I must have been really brave to purchase all of these for the first time online but my research on my shades didn't fail me...

 

  I absolutely loved the results the foundation gave me. I have never found one that is so close to my skin tone before. It gives of a natural and radiant look and puts a smile on my face I every time I wear my makeup because it is absolutely perfect. I cannot wait to try out the new Long-wear even finish foundation SPF 15 and their BB cream (SPF 35). Will post a review on those products as soon as I receive them.

Boohoo craze

I am officially in love with Boohoo.com. Being a lover of fashion who can sometimes go on crazy hauls I tend to do a lot of browsing online to find very good online stores with affordable outfits.

I chanced upon the Boohoo website in December last year when I was specifically searching for some knee-length dresses for several events that were coming up during the season. I must say I found a whole lot of lovely outfits, amazing shoes, bags and other accessories. That is when it all begun. I found myself going back to that website every time i had to shop online.

I think the thing I loved the most about that store as compared to others was:

• The website presentation

 It was very attractive with bright colours  and shades that do not make the clothes they display less more depressing than they actually look. I have been to some other websites where the everything looks so dull that it just puts me off. And the thing is these outfits do not really look like that in reality. So why not add some pop to make vibrant online shoppers enjoy the experience because the choices we make are based on what we see before us. Well thanks to boohoo i can spend time going from page to page without getting bored because everything looks lovely. You also have the choice of viewing everything in a category at once or at least have a lot more on a page at a time. I must say it gets tiring on online stores where you can view only 20 items or less at a time  and have to keeping moving to the next and the next and when you select to buy an item and then decided to continue shopping thereafter, it takes you right back to the beginning aaaargh. Thumbs up boohoo I really love your site.

• Up to date fashion.....lots of variety

They are always up to date with the newest fashion trends and provide various styles which are at par with well known brands that most young people cannot really afford. They also have so much variety that you can choose from. It really makes you have an interesting shopping experience. My latest find are these great Lita look alike shoes, which i got for 45 euros.

With the fall season round the corner I cannot wait to rock these with some skinny jeans and a lovely top. They made my summer with their colourful and true to size maxi dresses and I cannot wait to sea what they come up with next. I would therefore say visit that site anytime you shop online and check them out. You wont regret it.
