WHAT BOYS DONT UNDERSTAND ABOUT MAKEUP

It was only recently when I was walking with my boyfriend in selfridges browsing the makeup aisles, when he said "why do girls spend so much money on makeup, it's just paint" okay... This rather annoyed me. Why do boys not understand how much confidence makeup can give someone?
Makeup to some girls is like a gift sent from God. A mirical. 
Now no one actually needs makeup and everyone is beautiful in their own way. Although, many people may not be confident in the way they look. I know I could not walk to the shop without wearing makeup as I do not like the way I look without it, I have blemishes I want to cover, I want to have darker skin and my eyes without mascara on look 'bald'
Many girls, like me, believe they too only feel confident with makeup on, it's a shame really but not everyone is confident with the way they look and makeup is a way of building that confidence.
Another thing what boys might say is 'aw you look better without makeup', don't let anyone tell you how you look, the main thing is your own perspective of yourself, there's no point going out with no makeup on not feeling confident just because someone thinks 'you look better without it', coat your face in it if it makes you feel better about yourself, don't worry what other people think. All that matters is your confidence and what makes you feel better about yourself.
I hope now all the people who criticise makeup now understand why we wear it, obviously this blog does not apply to everyone but the moral is it is 'do what makes you feel better about yourself'
Thankyou, eden x

Estée Lauder double wear review


Today I will be reviewing my 'Estée Lauder double wear' foundation. 
So after getting about 20 testers from selfridges and still being wary, I decided to buy the actual thing. Costing £30 it was quite pricey for a 60ml bottle, although as it is medium-full coverage, not a lot needs to be applied onto the face at a time. 
Now, my skin type is very odd and confusing. It is very acne-prone and oily, although when I apply foundation my skin becomes dry and cakey, although still oily- wierd, I know. So therefore I need a foundation that is full coverage, oil free, yet light and quite duey, as this is close to impossible to find with being through hundreds of foundations, double wear is as close to these standards as possible, if not, better. 
The foundation glides onto your skin perfectly, leaving your skin looking flawless with no imperfections visible. It is brilliant coverage also and covers up all my acne scarring and blemishes. As you can get a skin match for this foundation, I have FINALLY got one which is my exact skin tone. You do not need to apply a matte powder ontop of this foundation as it stays in place all day without getting oily, and I normally have VERY oily skin.
 
So yet again, another product if Estée Lauder that has not failed to let me down. Will DEFINETLY be purchasing this product again.
