Shopping at Illamasqua and Make Up For Ever

Went to Illamasqua for a transformation yesterday (for info, scroll down at http://www.illamasqua.com/store-locator/27/) where they basically do a face makeup according to your wishes and you pay £30, which can be redeemed if you buy their products afterwards.. which - of course - I did:-)

You can check out the video here:



Products I got from Illamasqua:
Powder Eye Shadow in Dizzy (light pink), Savage (purple) and Slink (shimmery champagne.. on sale on their website at the moment). 


The first 2 colours were used in this tutorial from Illamasqua (love the look)



I also got the Satin Primer (smells and feels like heaven) and the Rich Liquid Foundation in RF100 (white) to create looks that require an even paler face than I have.



Products I got from Make Up For Ever:
HD Foundation in 115 Ivory

Origins VitaZing SPF 15 Moisturizer

Hi guys,

I just uploaded a new video on Youtube where I babble on and on about how great the Origins VitaZing is.

You can check it out here.



I was afraid it would make me look orange, but it doesn't. Just gives a nice healthy glow.

Here are some pictures of how it looks like on my super pale hand... no Oompa-Loompa look... yay.


Also has a very subtle smell.. nothing to intrusive or perfumy. As you can see, you should definitely blend it well, cause if you are not that tanned you can see a difference to the rest of the skin.

Logitech Webcam Reviews: Pro 9000 & C510

I recently bought the Logitech Pro 9000 and decided to do a review of it and of my other webcam, which I used before and will use again, the Logitech C510. Still haven't decided which one I prefer.

Check the out here:

Here is an example picture taken with the Pro 9000 (quality is not that great if you ask me):


Here is one taken with the C510 (not that great either when looked at in full size):



P.S.: I'm not usually done up like that... just tried to recreate some makeup looks I'd seen on Youtube.

Some more pictures of the webcams (obviously not taken with the webcam).
