Real Technique Brushes

Wow. just WOW. 

How have I not discovered these before. I do not know how I ever managed to do my makeup without these brushes.  

I am now in love with these Real Technique Brushes, as I have heard so much about them which made me have to try them for myself, so I did, I went for it! I purchased The Core Collection from Boots which includes 4 coverage essentials: detailer brush, pointed foundation brush, buffing brush and contour brush. All of these tools are held in a professional case & stand. Not only did I just purchase these, I went all out and also bought the stippling brush which has had so much hype and raving reviews, which I now understand!

 Stippling Brush | Buffing Brush | Contour Brush

 Foundation Brush | Detailer Brush

They looked absolutely beautiful set in the case, if you can say that about brushes? Ideal for traveling either in your every day bag or further a field on a holiday...jealous. But trust me, you wont really need to touch up your makeup throughout the day after using these amazing tools that will give you a great start to your day or night out. 

Step by Step:

1. I use the Stippling Brush to apply my foundation which helps to create a flawless coverage for my base

1(a). If I have a few blemishes, spots or darker circles that I want to have a thicker coverage then I would apply my concealer, then blend into my skin with the detailer/foundation brush from RT.

2. I then apply my powder (warm beige) to just set the foundation for a matte finish with the Real Techniques; Buffing Brush. 

3. Apply my bronzer, to add colour to my face (lightly) with another Buffer brush from MAC

4. Blusher is applied with the Contour Brush from the Real Techniques Core Collection. 

5. Stencil on my eyebrows

6. Either eyeshadow with a smoky eye or bright bold lipstick, varies from day to day. :) 

I will definitely be purchasing some of the other collection within the Real Techniques Brand, I've got my eye on the Expert Face Brush :)

Botox?  I have seriously considered getting lip fillers over the last few months, with the likes of Angelina Jolie who is famously known for her gorgeous looks and lips and also my new lip crush, Analeigh Tipton who stars in one of my most favourite films 'Crazy, Stupid, Love'. She has the most stunning lips I have ever seen and would kill to even get my lips anywhere near like hers! 

Even though I do have quite big lips any way, I am always dreaming of them to be a bit more... fuller.

After researching many products that involve no surgery, I came across the Sally Hansen Range, a gorgeous site that provides you with all the care that you would need from hand, foot and body care to lip treatment and quality beauty tools.

No hesitation came when I saw this Lip Inflation, I instantly purchased this on a trip in Boots. I went for the versatile Clear shade, so that I can wear this alone or on top of a lip colour, my favourite colour is Rimmel 700 Nude Delight - perfect for to finish your every day look. 

With a sticky texture, this was perfect for staying put for near enough all day and kept my lips moist whilst providing a cool minty tingly feeling to your lips to enhance the plump technology.
 
On application the brush bristles slide over your lips effortlessly covering all areas, and when wearing a lipstick, I recommend you dab a little bit on your hand/nail then apply manually rather than using the brush so that it stops it tainting the clear colour and the lipgloss tube. 

For the perfect plumping effect with no needles included, I would definitely give this a go! You can usually find this in an cosmetic stores like Superdrug or Boots.

Hello World...

My name is Gabriella Gough and I've decided to make a blog to share the insights of the world that I live in.

I didn't realise how hard it would be to actually think of a name for a blog, I don't know if any one else has had this problem but this took me a couple of weeks of umm'ing and arr'ing and researching all different forums and blog generators to finally decide. 

I had a million and one ideas but nothing really stuck in my mind. Except silly names which nearly made it but would of been kind of embarrassing to say out loud to people... ''The wondering feral cat'' but this was for all the funny reasons. Of course. 

After weeks of pestering my work colleagues of what I should name it, my lovely friend Eve who inspired me to finally get a blog gave me amazing ideas that eventually guided me to call my blog ''The Blue Bella'' which incorporates my bright blue eyes, 'belle' for beauty and also my name gabri-'ELLA'. 

So here it is... My first 'The Blue Bella' blog.
