PRETTY YOUNG THING

* In Collaboration with Jones Bootmaker

I thought i'd share some of my favourite make up brushes with you, since I started using make up brushes i've noticed a huge difference in my make up and it looks so much better. I have always stuck to high street brushes and don't really use any high end make up brushes. My favourite brush for foundation is this EcoTools brush, the bristles are not really close and are really light so you get a lovely light, natural finish. You can use this brush for blusher, bronzer and powder not just foundation. I use the Bold Metals Collection by Real Techniques Tapered Blush for my concealer, and highlight. I tend to use it to blend my concealer as its a lovely buffing kind of brush and it buffs out your concealer so it's perfect. It's a little big for the inner eye but I love it for under the eye. I've just started using the Becca highlighter, you can read my review here. I've found this brush is perfect for applying highlighter to the cheekbones. The Real Techniques pointed crease brush from the Bold Metals collection is such a good little brush, amazing if you struggle with a smokey eye as it makes working product into the crease so so easy. Another eyeshadow brush that I love is the Spectrum blending brush, I love using it to blend eyeshadow out for a more subtle smokey eye.  The Real Techniques brushes are such a good value for money, i've had this eyeshadow buffing brush and Blusher brush for years. They have been washed so many times are are still my favourites and are in such good condition.

I love my brush collection, I use alot of Spectrum eyeshadow brushes and have a some more Real Technique brushes and EcoTools in my collection. I have looked into buying new brushes a few times, I like the look of Crown Brushes and Sigma brushes but now i'm happy with my trusty old high street faves.

What are your favourite make up brushes ? Have you tried any from Crown or Sigma and would you recommend?

Here's a few of my favourites this spring. I've always been a big pink fan when it comes to blusher. Until I got my Naked palettes I didn't really use pink eyeshadow but now it's my everyday shade.

These are some of my favourite products right now!! Have you guys got any must have products for the spring ?

This is my favourite blusher - I wear it every single day! Its a powder blush and I apply it with my Real Techniques Blusher Brush. I apply a generous amount and use a translucent powder on top to make it look more natural. I love the bright pink shade and I think its the perfect shade for my pale skin colouring and with my blonde hair. I have other blushers that I don't use or use occasionally but this will always be my everyday blush and I always go back to this. I will be repurchasing this and if you know of any similar shades or better blushers let me know :)
I have been using the Benefit Posie-tint recently and I like this too! I normally wear powder foundation but have been trying out a liquid one and this the Posie tint works really well with it and creates a very similar shade and effect to Mac Pink Swoon.

At £17.50 I do think its very expensive but this has lasted me since christmas and this is the current state so it's not even hit the pan yet and I've used it near enough every day! So you can see its worth the money !!

what do you think would you spend £17.50 on this blush and can you recommend any other shades or blushers for me :)
