I'm trying to do one face of the day for everymonth - basically just showcasing how my face looked the majority of the time during it... This is my February face - well, towards the end of it anyway!

So I started (after prepping my skin) with my Bourjois 123 Perfect Foundation, which although not my favourite foundation, it does brighten my dull skin which I really like. I then popped on the two middle colours from my 17 Shimmer Brick for contour. I usually use the lightest colour from this to highlight my cheeks as well.

After thhat I applied my Sleek blush in Rose Gold, it has a gold shimmer running through so negates the need for a highlighter, but I still like to use one. I used two colours from a Sleek eyeshadow palette, sea shell a deep bronze gold and oyster, a pure white for the eyelids and the inner corners, then finished it off with my Mac eye pencil on the water line and smudged as a liner on top.

For the lips, I used Kate Matte 107, which is usually a lot darker, however I applied this with my Real Techniques Detailing Brush (discovered it's perfect for applying lipstick) so that it's more a muted colour that full on dark red. Then to add some moisture I popped on some Natio Moisturising Lipgloss.

All in all I really like this face, especially the lips - using a brush is a great way to wear bright lipsticks without them being too bright and in your face, a tip I will be contiuning to use!!

What was your February face?
