The Fashion Faux Pas of Gabrielle An unconventional fashion blogger trying to find her place on the internet

Another foundation find 

08/02/2017

With our wedding next year, I want to find the perfect foundation that gives me  perfect looking skin and lasts all day.
I’ve already written about a couple of other foundations I’ve tried before and want to continue documenting my mission to find the best of the best! 
Up for review today is the Makeup Forever Ultra HD Foundation. Another pricey buy at £29 for 30ml, I was willing this one be as amazing as the countless online reviews say it was! 


As a reminder, this is the base that I’m working with, my chin is the problem area so this is always an area I focus on when trying out a new foundation.

On first application, this is really pretty! A bit lighter in colour than my Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk that I just finished off, but with a bit of bronzer you wouldn’t know. 
Definitely a medium, buildable coverage. I applied 2 pumps to my entire face and topped up my chin with another pump to give me a full coverage on my problem area. 

I’ve had a random red patch of skin right on my jawline which has been doing my absolute tree in. I’m so happy that this managed to cover it (which my last foundation didn’t) and blend so well with the rest of my face! 
It lasts quite well, but I’m starting to think I need to invest in one of these make up setting sprays that everyone on the internet is banging on about! (Leave me some recommendations in the comments please!) 
Overall, I think this has knocked off Giorgio Armani from the top spot and looks amazing (if it can cover that bastard red patch on my face – it must be a winner).
Let me know about any new foundations you’d recommend me trying in the comments and check out some of my old posts on finding the perfect foundation! 
Until next time…

So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve been working and saving away with this gorgeous man to make sure that we could buy a house and we’ve only gone and done it! We’re now in the process of fixing it up and getting our bedroom ready to move in to, so hope we can get in next week! I’m going to be sharing the whole process on our Tiktok account which you can follow @thealbonrenovation - the first post on there is just a video showing the whole house as it was when we bought it on Friday (it’s changed a lot since then!) - so give us a follow it you love a bit of home renovation! 🥳🥳 #firsttimebuyers #newhouse
When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear ❄️ what a week it’s been! I’ve been shivering away, heating on full blast and my dressing gown wrapped around me as I work this week - I love the look of snow but hate the cold! Had a day of hypochondria where I had a cough and was convinced it was Covid - but turns out my husband knows me best and that it wasn’t. And that’s probably the most exciting bit of news I l have for you all! How are you all doing?!
Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time between posts as I have been in the last few months, so I think a couple of weeks is an improvement! On our way home from food shopping last week (highlight of the week!) we decided to stop by one of my favourite spots to take some outfit photos, where the majority of what I’m wearing is second hand (bag, jacket and jumper). I’m getting extremely stir crazy, but at the same time have turned into quite the hermit, I miss going out for lunch with Aaron, mooching around the charity shops and going out to do site visits for work - let’s hope this vaccine helps bring some normality!
And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to make myself feel like I was going somewhere tonight by putting a full face of makeup on, with the intention of sitting on the sofa sharing a bottle of Disaronno with Aaron to see the new year in! We might hit up the kitchen, the living room and Aaron suggested the bathroom but I wasn’t sure 😂 what have you got planned for tonight? And Happy New Year to everyone!
And that’s Christmas over for another year (alth And that’s Christmas over for another year (although let’s be honest, 2020 may as well not have happened!) and I just hope to god 2021 is a damn site better for everyone! Since I’ve been attempting to cut out purchasing brand new clothing all together, bar a few items such as underwear and pyjamas, I’m hoping once Hertfordshire is out of Tier 4 that I can head to the shops and do some serious secondhand shopping and use the vouchers I got to buy myself some new beauty bits. How was your quiet Christmas and have you got any beauty recommendations for me? #hertsbloggers #fashionbloggeruk #ukfashionblogger #ukstyleblogger #hertsbloggerlove #sustainablefashionblogger #secondhandfashionblogger #petitebloggeruk #petitefashionbloggeruk #outfitinspo #mylookoftheday #ootdshare #ukfashionblog #petitestyle #hertfordshirebloggers #funkyfashion #ukfashion #ootdinspo #canon700d #canon #amatuerphotography #aspiringfashionblogger #aspiringblogger
