Birthday make up haul

Sorry i have not updated in ages, i have been super busy. Monday was my birthday and i travelled home to Blackpool to see my friends and family and it was super dooper. I was so excited to see everyone and we got to do lots of touristy Blackpool things i dont usually do.
And for my birthday i got treated, big time. I usually buy the majority of my make up together in summer when i go away as i have put away spending money and its cheaper in the airport. This means that everything usually runs out at the same time and i get left with the scraps and i get very sad. The only thing that truly gives me pleasure in buying is make up, i have never been a shoes, handbag or clothes kinda girl but my make up bag is my pride and joy. This is why i am SO excited to share with you the amazing presents i got this weekend.

I also got lots of other lovely gifts and house things that i might do a post on soon.I also got a mound of goodies from the lovely ladies at beauty box swaps when i got home so it was like two birthdays :D I got well and truly spoilt and i am so happy, thank you everyone!

Loreal Nude Magique review

The sun has been shining and my magnolia tree has bloomed, how beautiful is my tree?!



So this week i received three little packages through the post (no idea where they came from) each with a sample of and Lumi Magique and a 'sneak peek' of the new BB cream Nude Magique. 

Loreal Says, 
Lumi Magique is a light infusing foundation that looks luminous on the skin and feels light to the touch. Stays for 12 hours. 

Kerri Says,
Firstly this sample is far too dark for me (sent in medium) to give a true review, i applied it to my face and looked like i was an extra from Towie. The formula is very light but i do not think that it gives a great coverage, my inperfections usually covered by my foundations were still visible and i found it a little hard to blend. I also do not think it is very luminous. This just my opinion you can always try it for yourself, i am personally not a fan.





I was also sent samples of the new BB cream Nude Magique. When i first opened the sachet i was so confused - the product is white?

Colour when first applied

After a little blending it turns colour before your very eyes...

A little blending
Wowzers, magic!

Blended

I was so surprised by this, it blends in great, feels light weight on my skin and is the ideal tanned colour, a teeny bit too dark at the moment but if this nice weather continues this may change. The formula is very runny which is maybe a little hard to work with as it settles into the skin really quickly so I found it best to apply with my fingers. 
This would be great on holiday or in the summer when you do not want to put on a full face, but need a little coverage. I think i may just invest when this comes out. 

Have you tried these yet?
