Chanel Vitalumière Aqua

I waited so long to purchase this foundation , mostly purely down to it's bulky price tag . . . At £31 it is one of the more expensive highend foundations . I got mine for £27 because Debenhams were holding an 10% off beauty event , this was down to pure luck and I probably won't be so lucky to stumble across it again discounted . Anyway I can safely say with hand upon heart that I love it so very much ! And will repurchase this without a doubt . . . Read on and you see why . 

Appearance This foundation is as stated a medium coverage foundation so does not provide as much coverage as say the Estée Lauder Double Wear but the coverage is perfect for this foundation . It is very light in texture and It makes my skin look amazing ! It is basically a second skin , it gives a beautiful fresh natural appearance , it is a semi matt foundation but can look slightly dewy under the eye area . I brought this particular Chanel foundation after I sampled both the Vitalumière Aqua and Perfection Lumiere . There was nothing wrong with the Perfection , it was a lovely foundation but was just more coverage than the Aqua and for a medium-full foundation I have Double Wear so wanted the more natural looking foundation for the days you want less heavy looking make up .

To apply  I don't want my 187 MAC brush or a sponge to soak up any of this product so as suggested by Chanel I apply this foundation with my fingers . If you use this foundation and try applying it this way you'll understand , it needs a lighter touch and it's just nice to feel really . I like to apply a smidge of Double Wear to the areas , such as much cheeks and chin , for that extra reassurance . Also make sure you shake the bottle really well , and I mean really well because the formula separates in the bottle .

* Small Bottle The size of the bottle is a total optical illusion . It's 30ml , same as all other Chanel foundations . If you look through your foundations I am sure you'll see they are all also around the 30ml mark , so there is no skimping on the amount in the bottle here *
 
If you were looking for a naughty splurge treat for yourself I'd say this is definitely it .

What do you think of the Chanel foundations ? Let me know if you go out and buy this yourselves, let me know what you make of it ?

The Sun Has Got His Hat On

Let the sunshine As it had been so yummy sunny the last few days me and my beautiful cousin Chels went and done some light shopping yesterday (and walked the dog) because we hadn't hung out much since she'd been back from working abroad .  We got coffees at Starbucks and strolled about window shopping , trying on stuff we have no intention of buying . Bargain of the day ! ! ! I got my other half a pair of jammy bottoms from Topman for £1 ! So chuffed with them : ] When are Topshop going into Mid Season sale ? Because everyone else seems to be already marking down . Anyone got a super bargain yet ? 

The Chanel counter girl So we hit the Chanel counter to see what beautiful foundations they had to offer and shockingly for once it was a pleasant experience . We were able to browse and talk to the girl behind the counter without being pushed and shoved into trying a lot of expensive stuff we didn't want (want but can't afford) . We were both matched up to the lush Perfection Lumiere and sent off with a good size tester to see what we thought . Tip & Hint this is what will make me go back when I eventually want to buy a full size bottle .Through the power of Twitter I informed @Debenhams of this great customer service and apparently they are going to pass this on to the store I visited . Super Chanel girl ! Which Chanel foundation would you recommend ?

Stupid Starbucks My super happy *I've got a day off and I am spending it shopping* mood was dampened by being told in Starbucks to put my camera away as you are not allowed to take pictures in their branches . . . what the fudge ? It actually really ticked me off because I was doing no harm and the girl wasn't terribly polite when she told me . AND they didn't ask my name , which was a tad excited about . I won't be using that particular branch anymore ! Also for the record the other branch of Starbucks in the town are bloody amazing 100% of the time . Do I avoid and try Costa instead ?

Petrol Your thoughts ? What the heck happened ? Panic has spend through the country, with people queueing at all hours of the day & night . I could not believe the amount of stations  we saw when we were out with queues up to 20 cars long and some stations run dry  by panic stricken motorists . One women has even managed to set herself on fire transferring petrol from one container to another . Massive tax scam ? yes ! What is everyone thinking ? What is the currently petrol level in your car ? Did you fill up ?
