It was mine and my sister's birthday last week and for this hot summer weather this foundation and pressed powder combination has been hand's down the best for the humid days we have been having in Sydney if your looking for a good pressed powder the colour pop pretty fresh one is amazing its full coverage and it blurs my pores 

My eyeshadow palette is a new one that I got for christmas it was only 11 dollars on Mecca its the Morphe 2 in Malibu you can create any eye look with this palette it has a gorgeous over the lid shadow and 2 gorgeous crease shadow and 2 stunning shimmers

 The lip colour that has been one of my must haves is Very Victoria from Charlotte Tilbury its a mauve nude colour soft and creamy but has good longevity 

 The flower beauty concealer hands down is one of my all time favourites

When i received my Mecca email regarding Christmas mini gifts have arrived to say that I was excited was an understatement I've been waiting for Australia to finally have some of the mini Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks for ages now unfortunately Mecca was sold out so I popped onto the Charlotte Tilbury website and found them for the exact same price as Mecca was selling them

I also picked up a Pillow Talk mini mascara as well to try out as we don't have any of her mini collections here in Aus yet I also got the mini Laura Mercier powder I've been wanting to try this ever since I did my cousins wedding makeup she bought some of this powder and it kept her foundation set in place for ages 

Walk of no shame is a gorgeous red muted shade 

Pillow Talk is a gorgeous nude pink shade 

Supermodel is a mauve nude shade 

Firstly make sure your pastry is at room temp this is crucial for the dough to move in the shape you want it to be 

Add your Nutella spread in between 2 pieces of puff pastry cut lines about medium thickness not to thin and not too thick add the pastry onto the skewer and add your egg wash to have that gorgeous brown colour 

               For the Cherry jam ones you use the same process as the Nutella ones just with jam instead 

bake for 20 minutes on 160 fan forced 

sprinkle some icing sugar or cinnamon sugar onto each tree 

These turned out so cute I'll be making more of these over the festive holidays

Skin Tint's have been getting more popular recently with more brands coming out with lighter foundations and tinted moisturisers it can be a overwhelming process.

So in this blogpost i have added my top 4 skin tints plus one of newest favourite spf's from Mecca 

Flower Beauty get real serum foundation

shades shell L0 and porcelain L1 both the lightest shades in the range 

shell has more of a pink fair undertone and porcelain has more of a yellowish undertone 

these are so lightweight on the skin and just add a tiny bit of coverage without looking heavy or feeling heavy.

Fenty Beauty ease drop blurring skin tint 

Shade 1 lightest shade in the range buildable light to medium coverage 

perfect for all skin types doesn't have an oily feel 

Estée Lauder double wear sheer 

This is a little too dark for me apparently this is the lightest shade they have in this range so I mix a little bit of that Morphe 2 concealer to make it suit my skin tone better

This isn't oily on the skin either 

Morphe 2 skin tint foundation & concealer 

 I wasn't too sure with the shade ranges the concealer is a little too white but i use this one as an eyeshadow base primer for my eye looks when my makeup is lightweight for some hot days.

This is a buildable coverage product that has the cutest little dropper applicator
