I'm All About That Base | Foundation Routine




I thought I would share my foundation routine with you all today, as I have changed a few things. Starting off with my primer, I like to use a primer as it creates an even base for foundation. It also makes foundation last that little bit longer as well. My all time favourite primer is The Body Shop Insta Blur, this primer really does help to smooth out the skin before applying foundation. 

I have been using a new foundation lately which has also featured in my previous post, its the Loréal Paris Infallible 24H Matte Foundation. Lately my skin has been pretty oily so I was on the look out for a matte foundation and I came across this and thought I'd give it a try. I have it in the shade 11 / Vanilla and it's such a good match for my skin tone! The foundation gives a matte look to the skin but does that without looking like you have loads of foundation on. It isn't drying either which I usually find with matte foundations. The foundation also lasts a long time on the skin without being touched up, when touching up I only ever have to pop a bit of powder on around my T-zone. To apply my foundation I use the Real Techniques Buffing brush, I find that this buffs my foundation into my skin and gives a really smooth finish.

To conceal under my eyes I use the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in the shade Fair, this is a great affordable concealer which it pretty high coverage. When I want to conceal any other imperfections I tend to use the Mac Prolong Wear Concealer in the shade NW20. The Prolong Wear Concealer is one of my favourites as it is really high coverage and you only need a tiny amount. It is also really long wearing so it is great for long days and nights out! To blend in my concealer I usually use the Real Techniques Sponge, I spray it with a little bit of Fix+ from Mac and it helps blend my concealer in.

To set that all in place I use the Rimmel London Stay Matte powder. This has been a powder that I always have in my collection and I have only just started using it again! I love this powder as it keeps my foundation set in place and is also matte! To apply my powder I just use a big fluffy brush and use a patting motion to apply my powder as sometimes when you buff the powder in it can move the foundation. 

Thanks for reading todays post I hope you enjoyed it! I will see you in my next post..

Monthly Makeup Favourites | September 2015



This month I seem to have rediscovered loads of old favourites as I haven't really brought anything new this month. But I am going to start off talking about a new favourite of mine. I feel like I am the last blogger to try the Loreal Paris Infallible 24H Matte Foundation, I can now see why everyone was raving over this so much. For a drugstore foundation it has really good coverage and it actually stays matte. I have been using the an old favourite of mine which is the Rimmel London Stay Matte powder with it and these two products work great together! I do really want to try the primer that foes with the foundation as I love the foundation!

I have also rediscovered my love for my Chanel Powder blush in the shade Rose Initial, this is one of my favourite blushes I just hadn't used it in ages and started using it again a few weeks ago and I remembered how much I loved this blush! It's great for pale skin as it adds a touch of colour and a tiny bit of simmer.

Hope you all enjoyed today's post! What have you been loving this month? Let me know!


High End Beauty Wishlist


My High End Beauty Wishlist seems to keep getting longer and longer so I thought I would share my most wanted products with you all.

1. Benefit Gimme Brow 
The benefit gimme brow has been on my wish list for a few months now. I have seen so many people raving about this and it looks great for making your brows look fuller.

2. Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner
I am in need of a new liquid eyeliner and this one sounds just what I am looking for it apparently stays all day without smudging! I have also heard loads of people rave about this so I really want to try it out!

3. Too Faced Love Flush Long-Lasting Blush
After seeing these all over my Instagram feed for the past few months, it has really made me want one of these blushers. They are so pretty and come in so many amazing shades!

4. Christian Louboutin Lipstick
Of course everyone wants a Christian Louboutin lipstick but I think this will be something that will be staying on my wish list for a pretty long time. All thought these lipsticks are beautiful and the colour range is amazing I don't think I can justify spending £60 on one lipstick.

5. Charlotte Tilbury The Fallen Angel Eyeshadow Palette
I am yet to try anything from Charlotte Tilbury's makeup range but I have had my eye on this palette for a while now and I know I really don't need any more eyeshadow palette but this one is so stunning!

6. Beauty Blender
I love beauty sponges and I have been loving my Real Techniques one so I think it's about time to try a Beauty Blender right? I have seen so many people go on about how good the Beauty Blender is and I really want to try it out!

Makeup of the Day | One Direction Concert



So tonight I am off to see One Direction at the O2 Arena so I thought I'd share my makeup with you all! Make sure you are following me on Instagram (chloewrighttt) so you can see how my makeup turned out.

As always for primer I am using The Body Shop Insta Blur, I don't need to rave about this anymore than I have on previous posts but this primer just smooths everything out creating an even base for foundation. It also makes my foundation last a look longer and I don't have to touch up as much throughout the day. For foundation I am using an old favourite which is the Loréal Paris True Match Foundation, you can build this foundation up to a medium coverage very easily. To cover any imperfections and my dark circles I have used the Mac Prolong Wear Concealer, I love how full coverage this concealer is and it stays in place. To set everything in place I have used my favourite powder at the moment which is the Maybelline Fit Me Powder, this just sets everything in place and makes my make last that little bit longer.

For my bronzer/contour I have used the Barry M Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit, just to define my cheek bones a little bit and too add some more colour on my face. For blusher I am using my all time favourite blusher which is the Rockateur from Benefit then to highlight I am using High Beam which is also from Benefit.

For my eyes I am keeping things simple and using the shades Naked Lunch allover the lid and then using Omega and Mulch in the crease to deepen the looks up. I love these Mac eyeshadows as they are really pigmented and don't crease which is great when you are going to a concert as you tend to get hot and don't want your makeup creasing. For Mascara I am using the Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara I love this mascara it makes my lashes look so much fuller and really long as well! For brows as always I am using my Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Pomade.

The lipstick I have gone with is my all time favourite nude which is Chanel Coco Shine in the shade 57. It's just a sheer glossy nude which goes really well with the simple eyeshadow.

I hope you enjoyed today's post! Let me know if your going to any concerts soon I'd love to here about it!

Updated | Everyday Makeup


I think it is finally time I update you all on the makeup I've been wearing daily. It hasn't changed to much but there are a few new and different things I have been reaching for more.

For my base I am still loving Benefit Porefessional I have recently started using this again but it has been a product I have loved for ages and I had forgotten how much I liked it! I am still loving the Maybelline Pure Fresh BB Cream which is really long lasting as it is for only skin so it is matte. I am loving using this as I am now back at college and this lasts all day long. To conceal I am using the Mac ProLong Wear concealer I just use this when the coverage from the BB cream isn't just enough. To set that all in place I am still loving the Soap and Glory One Heck of a Blot powder, which I think might be my all time favourite powder. I really need to pick up another one of these as I have majorly hit pan.

To contour I have been using the Master Sculpt from Maybelline I have finally found a contour shade that isn't to orange for me yippee! For blush I have rediscovered my Benefit Rockateur Blush I haven't used this in ages but I have fallen back in love with this blush. For highlight I am either using the powder highlight that comes in the Master Sculpt which is a loving champagne shade with flecks of shimmer, or I am using the Benefit Watts Up Highlighter which is a creamy champagne highlighter. I love the cream highlighter when I am going for a more dewy look.

On my eyes I am still loving the whole winged eyeliner look so I just use my Topshop Magic Liner which stays in place all day and is super black! For mascara I have been using the Urban Decay Perversion Mascara which I am loving it stays in place theres no smudging or flaking it just stays put. It also holds a curl and makes my lashes look super long!

Lastly on my lips I have been loving Brave Lipstick from Mac which I forgot to put in the photo but I have been wearing it loads! I have also been loving a lip liner from Essence Cosmetics in the shade 07 / Cute Pink I love this shade as it is a darker pink that what I would usually go for but I have really been liking it lately!

Hope you all enjoyed this post! Make sure you let me know what some of the products you use daily are! See you in my next post!
