September Favourites 2014

Is September really over? Where has the month gone? It feels like only yesterday that I started back at school. September has been a pretty hectic month for me and you may have noticed that I haven't been blogging as much. I am thinking that I may drop down to two posts a week but will post more if I am having a quieter week. Anyway lets get onto what I have been loving this month. 

RIMMEL MATCH PERFECTION FOUNDATION// For school I like to wear foundation, nothing too cakey or full coverage. Since going back to school I have been using this foundation everyday as it is just a lovely every day foundation for me. The coverage is light but still buildable for days when my skin isn't looking it's best. The bright blue lid makes finding this bottle in the depths of my makeup bag so much easier. Also the rest of the packaging is spot on: a heavy glass bottle with a high end feel but a drug-store price tag. You can't really go wrong. When I run out of this foundation I am thinking of trying the new Rimmel Lasting Finish foundations. I'd love to know what you think of it if you have tried it!

BENEFIT BAD GAL WATERPROOF EXTRA BLACK LINER// Usually I am a liquid liner kind of girl all the way. In the summer holidays and the spring/summer months I wore black liquid liner every single day. It was trusty and reliable and I knew my liquid liner would last all day without me having to do any touch ups. For my birthday I received this liner, along with the Bad Gal mascara, but didn't start using it until this month. I can't believe I didn't use this before. The colour is an intense black, it glides on beautifully and lasts all day. Most days I have been choosing to wear this instead of my liquid liner as for school it looks a lot softer rather than a hard liquid liner. However it still defines my eyes beautifully. 

MAYBELLINE COLOUR TATTOO ON AND ON BRONZE// In the summer I kind of ditched eyeshadow products and just went with a simple liquid line. But this month I have rediscovered my trusty colour tattoo and I don't know what I'd do without it. It lasts all day and this shade is a really shimmery golden bronze colour that is really flattering. Sometimes I will leave it as a wash of colour or I will apply shadows over the top and use it as an eye-shadow primer. 

RIMMEL MOISTURE RENEW LIPSTICK IN NOTTING HILL NUDE// Because I am so pale I find it hard to wear and find nice nude shades that suit me. I saw that Lily Pebbles did a post on this a while ago and I loved how it looked on her. It is definitely probably the darkest nude shade I can get away with, any darker and it would verge on 'old women- esk'. But if I pat it into my lips it leaves a really pretty finish. As the name suggests the formula is lovely and nourishing and nowhere near drying at all. This lipstick reminds me of the famous Kylie Jenner lip; which I really like!
 

RIMMEL FRENCH MANICURE PRO POLISH IN FRENCH ROSE// It is only as I have sat down to write this, that I've realised I have included three Rimmel products. I really do love Rimmel! Like I said earlier September was a busy month for me and as much as it pained me, I just couldn't find the time to paint my nails every 2-3 days. As a result I whipped out this bad boy. This is designed to be the colour coat of a french manicure, but I like to use it on its own. It is a really pretty natural baby pink colour that makes your lips look really polished and put together. The best part is that it lasts 4 days without chipping and when it does you can't even notice it because the polish it such a natural colour. I have worn this pretty much all month and I love it! Though I can't wait to wear some darker autumnal colours now. 

SAM SMITH// What can I say, this guy is amazing. His voice is angelic, his lyrics are beautiful and there is something about the way his music is all arranged and put together that just keeps me coming back for more. I honestly can't relive I didn't discover his music sooner. I have had his artist playlist on Spotify on repeat and I think I now know all the words!

WOMN #8 No 7 Deep Wine Gel Polish

Toward the end of last Winter I picked up a couple of the No 7 Gel Polishes but haven't worn them much this year because they shades I bought were very autumnal and wintry. But now that September has come (and nearly gone), I thought it was time to whip these out again and get some more wear out of them.

The shade I am loving at the moment is Deep Wine and as the name suggests it is a deep reddy wine colour. In some lights it has a slight burgundy undertones which I think looks really nice. I was pleasantly surprised with this polish as on the nails it looks so glossy ( this photo doesn't really pick up on the glossiness) and probably didn't need a top coat but I used one anyway just out of habit. The packaging is very sleek and simple  As far as the wear goes it lasts pretty well - it was still looking good on day 3 and by day 4 it had a couple of chips. But a girl can live with a couple of chips! 

Overall I am very impressed with this nail polish and next time there is a No 7 offer on in boots, I'd give these nail polishes a whirl! In case you can't tell from the photo; I am so excited about Autumn and have been loving everything about it!

Skincare Routine

I am back with another #TeenBlogSeries post and Skincare isn't really something I talk about much because it is so personal and individual to everyone. Plus I am in no way a skincare expert - it has taken me ages to find a routine I am happy with and that mu skin likes.

REMOVING EYE MAKEUP// 

I start my evening routine by using Bioderma to remove my eye makeup. Bioderma is quite hard to find but it is honestly the best thing to use because it makes removing stubborn eye products a breeze. I take a generous amount onto a cotton bud, hold it onto my eyelid for a few seconds and then just wipe all the gunk away!

CLEANSING//

It is so important to cleanse your face twice a day and it is a step that I never miss out. Even if I am in a rush in the morning or really tired before bed; I will always cleanse because my face doesn't feel clean other wise. Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish has been a huge staple in my skincare routine for years: I began using it when I was a spotty face kid and it cleared everything up. I know it's not the most affordable product but trust me if you have troubled skin (like most hormonal teenagers do!) then I would highly recommend it as it keep my skin under control. For those of you on a tighter budget, the No 7 Beautiful Skin Hot Cloth Cleanser is a great alternative and I use this when my skin is looking better. It's a very similar cleanser I just find the Liz Earle one has better results! 

EXFOLIATING//

Now this isn't a step that I do everyday but I like to try at do it at least once a week. I'm not sure if that is what you are supposed to do - but it works for me. At the moment I am using the Elemis Skin Glow Exfoliating Face Wash and I really like it. There is no harsh smell and even though it is a scrub my face never feels sore of sensitive after using it. 

TONING//

Again like the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish, I have been using this toner for year and it is so good. In the past I have used the spray version, but I just prefer using this one as I can pour it onto a cotton bud and wipe around my face. 

MOISTURISING//

I use two moisturisers: one for the morning and one for the evening. In the morning I like to use quite a light moisturiser and this frequently gets changed around but currently I am using Nivea Refreshing Soft Moisturising Cream but I like lots from Nivea. Then at night I use a heavy duty moisturiser and I am still using the BeautyLab Overnight repair cream which I did a review on here but completely forgot to photograph... sorry! Anyway I still love this moisturiser and will be sad when I run out!

Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick 107

So I've ditched my peachy pink lipsticks and nude glosses and am loving darker shades. To be honest I have been wanting to wear darker lipsticks since about the middle of August - but let's just keep that between you and me! For me, and every other beauty blogger, Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in 107 is THE Autumn/Winter shade. 

Let start with the colour: a beautiful dark berry shade, that is not too dark or too plum, and that suits a lot of skintones  I picked up this lipstick last Christmas because every beauty blogger was talking about it. If I am completely honest I didn't like it at first because it is very matte and I just didn't like the way the matte finished looked on me. As a result it lacked my love and attention last Winter. But recently I have found a new way to wear it that I find looks so much better on me. Firstly I like to put a bit of Vaseline onto my lips and then I start by putting some of the product onto my finger and then rubbing that on my lips. For me this works better as the colour is a bit softer but it lasts for ages and I think it acts a bit like a stain. Also sometimes I will apply the colour straight from the bottle, pat it down and then put a gloss over the top. 

I will definitely be getting a lot of wear out of this over the next few months! Do you like the Kate Moss 107 lipstick?

Autumn New Look and Primark Haul

You will probably be seeing a lot of Autumn related posts coming up on MissBeccaBeauty in the next few weeks because lets face it Autumn is just an amazing month and there is so much to blog and talk about. I am afraid I can't find any links because Primark don't have a website and the New Look items were in the sale,,, sorry. 

Last weekend we went out for lunch to celebrate my dad getting a new job and after out meal we decided to have a little walk around town. We ended up walking past a Primark and I couldn't not go in because Primark always have great and affordable pieces. I went in to get a new pair of slippers as, I saw these brown ugg-esk slippers on quite a few blogs and I really wanted to get my paws on them because they are only £4. Whilst in the shoe section getting my slippers I spotted two pairs of boots that I loved. I know Primark boots aren't the best quality and they will probably only last me this winter but honestly I don't mind. The first pair are sued Chelsea style boots (£10) that are actually really slimming on my feet and don't make them look chunky - I love how simple these are and I think I will wear them a lot... except when it's raining! The second pair (£15) are a bit chunkier and have a leather look finish with the top half as a quilted material, the heel on these boots are really nice as they give me a bit of extra height but I am still able to comfortably walk in them. Finally my favourite item from Primark is this huge tartan blanket scarf. I can probably guess that everyone and their mum will have this scarf this season - but oh well! It was only £5 and honestly is the so comfy and warm that I cannot wait to wear it on cold days.

Towards the end of August I popped into the New Look sales and found two gems on the rack for such a good bargain. The first is a mint green sweater (£7) with embroidered knitted flowers on the front. My immediate thought was that I could wear this all year round, the summer to Autumn transition and for the winter to spring transition. For Autumn I am thinking of wearing this layered over a checked shirt or with the tartan scarf from Primark. The last item I picked up was a grey over sized knitted cardigan - I have been after one of these for so long but all the ones I liked in TopShop were £50 and there was no way I was going to pay that. However in New Look this cardigan was only £7, the only down side is that it is a size 16 but I like the baggy look and I just roll the sleeves up.

Have you picked up any nice Autumn clothes yet from your favourite high street shops?

Sunday Style: Emma Stone

Fashion isn't really something I blog too much about but this Autumn fashion has really excited me, I have been putting outfits together in my head and have been seeing so much Autumn fashion inspiration on Pinterest ( you can follow me here on Pinterest if you aren't already). Emma Stone's outfit pretty much sums up my style : jeans, jumpers, scarfs and boots. This is what I practically live in all Autumn ( and most of winter too - but with a coat as well), and outfits like these are quite basic but look well put together. 

NEW LOOK CREAM JUMPER £19.99// Cream jumpers are a staple piece, at the moment New Look are on point and this jumper is no exception. It is reasonably priced and a piece like this will get a lot of wear out of. TOPSHOP RIPPED BLUE LEIGH JEANS £40// Personally I wear blue ripped jeans like these all year round as they are so versatile and practical. I know the leigh jeans are very popular - personally I have never tried them but I have a pair very similar to the ones that Emma is wearing. Also can we just note how cute they look rolled up with the ankle boots! ASOS OVERSIZED GREY KNIT SCARF £15// Again, like the jeans I wear scarf's a lot of the time because lets face it England isn't the warmest country in the world and scarf's are just so comfortable. This year I want to invest in a scarf like this because I think I will get so much wear out of it paired with an outfit like Emma's or with something a bit different. NEW LOOK BLACK SIDE ZIP ANKLE BOOTS £19.99// These boots are super classic and I have bought a pair of boots really similar to these for this year from Primark (coming up in a haul very soon!). RIVER ISLAND BROWN TORTOISE SUNGLASSES £10// Is it just me or do you still wear your sunglasses in the Autumn? I do. On a morning it can be quite bright and often the sun can be really low on an evening. These ones from River Island are so pretty and I love the animal-print-esk look of them. RIVER ISLAND SLOUCH SHOULDER TAN BAG £30// I am not a big fan of bags you carry in the crook of your arm - they look so stylish but honestly I think they are just so impractical. However this bag is perfect as you can carry it on your shoulder and this colour really complements this outfit. 

What do you think of Emma Stone's style in this outfit? Personally I love it and is something I will definitely be wearing and taking inspiration from!

3 Lazy Hairstyles

When it comes to my hair I am pretty lazy, I love curling my hair but it takes a good 20-30 minuets to do and most mornings I would rather spend that it bed than faffing with my hair. So for school my hairstyles are pretty lazy; not just school - all the time really. There are three main hairstyles that I wear and every so often I will curl my hair as I love how it looks - I just don't like the time it takes. Anyway I though I would show you my hair sequence and how I like to style it!

DAY ONE// I will wake up and start the day by washing my hair. Usually I towel dry it and then give it a bit of a blast with the hair-dryer while my head is upside down. This just gets some of the 'big wet' of and just makes it easier for my hair to dry on it's own. As my hair is naturally dry I like to run about a pump or two of the Tresemme  Liquid Gold oil through it as it adds leaves my hair feeling really glossy and smooth. I have a review here if you would like to have a read in more detail! After an hour or two my hair will have dried and is left with natural curly waves that I actually quite like. 

DAY TWO// When I wake up on day 2 my hair is a bit wavy and there are some curls from the day before, so I put my hair in a high pony tail and just let the curls hang loose, I like to pull the hair around the front out crown of my head forward to give it a softer look and pull bits around my face. I usually end up using some bobbie pins to secure any bits of hair that are sticking out or in the wrong place. 

DAY THREE// Now by day three my hair is feeling a bit groggy so this is when I whip out the good old dry shampoo. At the moment I am using the Bouffe Dry Shampoo*, I use is as a dry shampoo and a texturing spray for up do's because it has the perfect finish that makes your hair good to work with for wearing your hair up. If you spray it in the roots it can add a lot of volume which I like when I want to just whip my hair up in a messy bun. The great thing about this range is that they come in a range of hair colour shades ranging from light blonde's to brunette shades and dark black. I secure my messy bun with a bobble and about 10 million bobbie pins (slight exaggeration)! 

What are you lazy hair styles that take up to no time to do in the morning?

WOMN #7 Renunail Pomegranate

Now it's September I have been cracking out the Autumnal polishes and one that I really like at the moment is this Renunail Triple Strength Polish in the shade Pomegranate*. The tripe strength range is designed to help strengthen your nails, which is great for me because sometimes I find my nails can become a bit weak and break off easily. However my nails felt really strong with this polish on as it is full of amazing ingredients : keratin, bamboo and calcium.

Now onto the colour, In the bottle this polish definitely looks a lot pinker whereas on the nails I would say it was more of a pink-toned red rather than a pink polish which is what I thought it was going to be from looking at the bottle. The polish is super opaque and I could have gotten away with one coat, but I always do two just as a rule of thumb. When it comes to the finish it is really golly which surprised me a lot as I wasn't expecting a such a glossy finish. I will say that the day after applying this I got a couple of little chips, but that may have been because I was using a different top coat to my trusty Seche Vite. So just bear that in mind. 

The Dr Lewinn’s Renunail Nail Colour in Pomegranate is £14 here, and they also have a few more shades in the the range - not loads but they are all timeless shades that every girl needs in her collection.

Favourite High Street Shop | #TeenBlogSeries

I am back with the next instalment of the Teen Blog Series, and today I wanted to share with you my favourite high street shop. Now, H&M has been one of my favourite shops for a long time, but recently New Look has really impressed me and I am particularity loving their new Autumn clothes at the moment. So for this post I am talking about some of my favourite new pieces in New Look at the moment.

Teen Bloggers Anouska Millar and Beth have decided to start a project called #TeenBlogSeries. Its aim is to bring together lots of the teens/young adults in the blogging community. For the next ten consecutive weeks, over 80 bloggers will be writing every Monday at 6:30pm about many different things, all beauty, lifestyle or fashion related. You can view everyone's posts by going to the hashtag on twitter "TeenBlogSeries". If you would like to get involved email: anouskateenblogger@googlemail.com. 

BLACK RIBBED JUMPER £19.99// I think New Look do some great staples for each season and this jumper looks like the perfect staple item in my Autumn and Winter wardrobe. CHARCOAL AUTHENTIC FADED JEANS £22.99// I own quite a few blue and black jeans but am missing something like these faded grey ones, I love the whole faded look as it really edges up an outfit and I think would look great with even just a plain tee. PALE GREY OPEN DIAL WATCH £12.99// I own a pale pink watch which I love wearing as it is a neutral shade but not a white or too nude because they don't suit my skin tone. This grey watch looks like it would work well with any outfit as it is such a wearable watch for everyday. MONOCHROME STRIPE CREPE 3/4 LENGTH TOP £9.99// Like I mentioned before, this would be another great basic and for £9.99 you really can't go wrong, I can also see myself being able to wear this all year round by styling this differently. 3/4 sleeves are also very flattering, which is a big plus! BLACK CONTRAST SUEDE SIDE PANEL TOTE BAG £19.99// What you can't see from the image is that this bag has two poppers either side so you can clip them together when you want to create the slouchy shape as in the image above, or if you release the poppers it opens up as a winged tote bag, I have this bag for school and it is amazing because I can have the poppers closed so the bag is shaped better and then if my teacher gives me a folder to bring home I can just open the poppers and my bag is bigger! It is so amazingly versatile!

DARK PINK METAL QUILTED PURSE £9.99// New Look do some amazing accessories; in particular I really like their bags and purse. They are reasonably priced and very on trend... it's a win-win situation! This one is no exception and this shade is just so Autumnal. YELLOW BOBBLE STITCH JUMPER £19.99// Now yellow is not a colour that pops up in my wardrobe much, but this yellow pretty much sums up Autumn and I really really want to find a way to pull it off. I think I would need to use it for layering up as on it's own I may look like a kid dressed as a banana.They also have a few other shades which aren't as garish and so pretty for Autumn. Barry M have a shade very similar to this in their Autumn/Winter collection and it is really making me crave Autumn! BURGUNDY SHEARLING CUFF BOOTS £29.99// I don't have any shoes like this but I find burgundy suits me nicely and I think I would get so much wear out of them. Also I think they would help to make any outfit look really put together. BLACK FLORAL PRINT TEA DRESS £19.99// Isn't this dress just so adorable? Again I think it is a really versatile piece in an A/W wardrobe as it can be dressed up and dressed down. For example it would look really nice paired with a leather jacket and some heels for the evening or with the burgundy boots and the yellow jumper over the top to get that layering look!

I am loving the #TeenBlogSeries and can't wait for next week! If you are taking part leave your links below as I want to read as many of these posts as I can.

Lemon Drizzle Loaf Recipe

If you read my August Favourites you will know that I have been a bit in love with Mary Berry recently and her easy to follow yet scrumptious recipes. Her lemon drizzle cake is no exception, the sponge isn't too lemony so it means you can play around with the icing to suit your taste. Mary does her recipe as a tray bake, but personally I much prefer a loaf cake as my Nana always has a lemon loaf cake in the house whenever we go and visit. There is also something about the way the icing drips down the sides that I love so much.

Ingredients For The Cake

225g (8 oz) butter , lift it out a couple of hours before baking for it to soften

225g (8 oz) caster sugar

275g (10 oz) self-raising flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

4 eggs

4 tablespoons milk

Zest of 2 lemons

Ingredients For The Icing:
175g icing sugar
Juice of 2 lemons
Water

Method:

1. Start off by pre-heating the oven to 160°C/325°F/Gas 3. Then choose a tin of your choice, Mary Berry uses a tray-bake tin,  30 x 23 x 4 cm (12 x 9 x 1 ½ inches), but I prefer to use a loaf tin. The quantity works well for both tins so it doesn't really matter - it's just personal preference. 

2. Whatever tin you use make to cake must be lined. You can use greaseproof paper and for the loaf tins your can also buy greaseproof lining that fits the loaf perfectly ( and saves loads of hassle!).

3. Measure all the ingredients into a large bowl and beat well for about 2 minutes until well blended, an electric mixer or free-standing mixer (which is what I use) is best for this but of course you can also beat by hand with a wooden spoon. 

4. Put the mixture into the prepared tin, scraping the sides of the bowl with a plastic spatula to remove all of the mixture. Level the top gently with the back of the spatula.

5.  Bake in the middle of the pre-heated oven for about 35-40 minutes, don't place the tin any higher than the middle in the oven otherwise it will burn on top horribly (trust me, I've learnt this the hard way!). A great way to test if the cake is done is to press lightly in the centre of the cake with finger and if it springs back it is done. Sometimes I will also use a skewer in the centre of the cake, if there is running mixture left on the skewer then the cake is under cooked.

6. Leave the cake to cool for a few minuets then remove the cake from tin keeping it in it's lining. Carefully remove the paper and leave to fully cool on a wire rack.

7. For the icing, sieve the icing sugar into a bowl. Then begin to add your lemon juice, I find that when the icing has a strong enough lemon taste I will go ahead and add drops of water until the icing is a thick consistency. You want the icing to be thick but runny enough to run down the sides of the cake.

8. Place the icing in a thick line down the centre of the cake and leave to let it drip naturally.

This cake is super simple and is so delicious. I find this cake keeps fresh and moist for a couple of days so it is good for if you have lots of visitors of people staying as the cake lasts a few days (well, because this cake is so yummy I doesn't last long in my house!). Let me know if you have a go at this cake, I would love to see some photos.

Through My iPhone | August

August is always a great month because there is no school. A whole month of relaxation. freedom and for me blogging. This month it has been great having the time to write posts when I want to and not be rushing a post because of that English homework I still have to do. This month has consisted of lots of baking, eating food, pretty flowers and doing this I enjoy like painting my nails and playing Monopoly. 

I love painting my nails and when mum's friend was over we had a really nice girly session of nail painting. // Monopoly easily wins the title of my favourite board game, it brings out my competitive side and I love winning the game! I especially love to play it around Christmas and New Years. // We headed off to The Dales for the day and I couldn't resist taking a photo of these beautiful flowers outside one of the many quaint shops in this village that was quite literally in the middle of nowhere. // Messing around on Retrica with my little sis. // If you have been around on this blog for a while you will probably have seen me mention that I play the French Horn, last week I had a BBQ with all my French Horn friends and it was so much fun. As you can see I attempted a French Horn cake, what do you think? // Another cake... this time it is Mary Berry's Victoria Sandwich. I have a recipe post here if you would like to read it! // Not sure if this is normal or not but I feel like my taste buds are changing - I NEVER used to like Indian food as even a mild korma was just too hot for me. However over the past few months I have been really enjoying eating Indian food and I would like to try some Thai food, Let me know if you have any Thai recommendations! // Finally, how pretty are these flowers currently sitting in my kitchen! 

What have you gotten up to this month?

Best Foundation and Brow Routine | #TeenBlogSeries

Teen Bloggers Anouska Millar and Beth have decided to start a project called #TeenBlogSeries. Its aim is to bring together lots of the teens/young adults in the blogging community. For the next ten consecutive weeks, over 80 bloggers will be writing every Monday at 6:30pm about many different things, all beauty, lifestyle or fashion related. You can view everyone's posts by going to the hashtag on twitter "TeenBlogSeries". If you would like to get involved email: anouskateenblogger@googlemail.com. 

I am not sure if this means your ultimate foundation and brow routine that is super long lasting or if it means the products you use most often and always go back to. I am interpreting it as the latter, so I will be sharing with you the foundation I have been wearing nearly every day and will continue to wear and what I do with my brows every day.When it comes to the make up I wear everyday for school and just going out and about, I much prefer a natural base. If I am just around the house I will wear a tinted moisturiser or just concealer but for school I prefer a light foundation. In my collection I have lots of base products: some tinted moisturisers for when I want a very light coverage, mineral powders on good skin days, very high coverage and long lasting foundations and the ones that I wear on an everyday basis.

At the moment I am really liking Rimmel's Match Perfection foundation and I have the shade 100 ivory. I find this a perfect colour match for me, earlier on in the summer when I was fake tanning this foundation was way too pale for me but over the past few weeks it has been perfect and I know as we move into Autumn and Winter I will use this pretty much every day. The coverage is light but you can build it up to a medium coverage without it  caking. Most days I do use a face SPF but I do really like that it has an SPF of 18, so on days when I forget my skin still has some protection against the sun. This probably sounds really silly but the fact it has a bright blue lid means it makes actually finding my foundation so much easier. I don't know about you but sometimes when it is in the bottom of your makeup bag it is like finding a bobbie pin in your bed room (which by the way is impossible). Sticking with the packaging, the glass bottle gives this bargain of a product a 'higher end' feel. It blends beautifully with my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush and I find that for day-to-day I only really need a pump to cover my whole face. I am blown away by this foundation it is blum-ming fantastic.

*You have been warned- the next paragraph may offend some of you beauty blogger brow babes out there *
When I comes to my brows I like to go au natural. Without trying to sound like I am boasting, I am actually really happy with my brows just the way they are. I love their shape and find they frame my face really well. On a morning I will brush through my brows with a spoolie and just keep on top of my plucking to avoid any hairs randomly out of place. Some of you may be a bit confused because I did a post on my Brow Trick For Newbies, which is a post I did on how I do fill my brows in. But I only ever do my brows when I have a full face of makeup and a heavy smoky eye makeup look as I find just filling them in slightly makes my face look more dramatic. I look like a kid playing around with her mums makeup when I fill my brows so I just stick to doing it when I am going for a dramatic look.

What is your best foundation and brow routine?
