CRAZY, CRAZY, CRAZY....
Madness at work again....
One of the things I love about my job (& there are lots of things to love about being a makeup artist!) is that there is always something happening!
Makeup is such a rapidly changing industry - exciting new brands get launched, amazing new products get released and then don't even get me started on the new colour shades that come out every season... When you are a makeup junkie it is really hard to exercise some self-control. As it is my drawers and makeup desk are overflowing!

To add to the excitement our store regularly has HUGE clearance sales... We only get told the sale details the day before and then it is all hands on deck to get everything repriced, created new displays and generally get the shop organised! It's a whole lot of work but it's lots of fun and keeps us on our toes... Plus then I get to take advantage of the sale pricing!!
For the next 2 weeks all Max Factor stock is 70% off. We have run this sale before and it was hugely popular as it is such a reputable and well-known brand. Lots of us stocked up on favourite products and then chose a few new things as well - I did a blog post with swatches on while back.
Guess it is dangerous working in a makeup store after all :) I think my next blog post might be on 'my dream list if money wasn't an issue' - what you do think??

Collection Cosmetics : Change of season clearance sale!
50% off all Collection Cosmetics
One week only - starting TODAY!
Collection : Cover & Go - Foundation and Concealer Duo
I was excited to try the 'Cover & Go' from Collection Cosmetics. This product is marketed as a Foundation & Concealer Duo.
It is incredibly handy to have a tube of foundation with a concealer hidden in the cap along with a small mirror. The advantage is the 2 products tone well together and means I only have one product to carry rather than several in my bag!
Collection Cosmetics is a well established UK brand which is relatively new to the NZ market. However it is quickly gaining quite a following of loyal customers here because of their high quality products at inexpensive prices.
I found the texture of this foundation to be quite thick when I squeezed it out of the tube. However when I applied it to my skin it felt surprisingly lightweight and blended really well. It gives a light to medium coverage and I felt it gave my skin a beautifully natural finish. Probably best described as it made like my skin look like it was naturally flawless!
The concealer hidden in the lid matches the foundation shade and I found the concealer like the foundation gives lightish coverage. As generally my skin is blemish free I don't need to worry about needing heavy concealer coverage so it worked well to minimise some skin redness I was experiencing.
I know some of the more expensive brands on the market also do a foundation & concealer duo but for me it's great to have a foundation & concealer duo at a realistic price point and I am very satisfied with my purchase!
