Bourjois Goodie Bag

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Aloha Sprinklerinos,</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Last week I wrote THIS about a recent work day I had in London attending blogger events. When I first started blogging, many moons ago, one of my favourite things to see on blogs were the goodie bags people were sent home with (I'm nosey like that) so I thought I would harp back to those days and show you mine.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Please note that this isn't bragging or showing off, I just figured that if one person (me) likes these sorts of posts, then other people (you), might like them too. It's not a review, just a 'ooohh look, purddyyy' dealio. Plus, I like looking at eye candy pictures of makeup. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglveZ5JSEI22blN4uNw5FyOKYLjdV8lJ2WpHsLB04bdMhwYepMrZTicmSgScKcdMrK4aJ9RO0yqKqChionADUhV-A5KUIuidjw_9meiStzJH6Yq9fi5D63-b6ohsUkaG6iEqx22DdougiM/s1600/GB1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bourjois Make Up" border="0" height="412" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglveZ5JSEI22blN4uNw5FyOKYLjdV8lJ2WpHsLB04bdMhwYepMrZTicmSgScKcdMrK4aJ9RO0yqKqChionADUhV-A5KUIuidjw_9meiStzJH6Yq9fi5D63-b6ohsUkaG6iEqx22DdougiM/s640/GB1.jpg" title="Bourjois Make Up" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWK8fZXCFYah0rLLWLdDiTvnr_s48lx9d2jIPQfG4EiFakRUxDCjHxA0evPnAnl-xxYEEd_XqC8Iym_tFMF1Qj5J76L58IoZ1y6e0bcylu4qDzKpBJdQ7GmPUXd685NTiVDbLNiZITd14a/s1600/GB2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bourjois Make Up" border="0" height="412" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWK8fZXCFYah0rLLWLdDiTvnr_s48lx9d2jIPQfG4EiFakRUxDCjHxA0evPnAnl-xxYEEd_XqC8Iym_tFMF1Qj5J76L58IoZ1y6e0bcylu4qDzKpBJdQ7GmPUXd685NTiVDbLNiZITd14a/s640/GB2.jpg" title="Bourjois Make Up" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGTS4fX1ylSvMC_mfRnxI_qzEojU7vzb5XKCEqww5l82IBZzIhCPea100_MvvpYj8zduG2fcLtyTW-8jj3f9qGowGEdiTDlNR4Ehebk4ApDqJGbaZsMcGgocK7_vHAhBk_8hmJJ1h4rT_E/s1600/GB3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bourjois Make Up" border="0" height="444" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGTS4fX1ylSvMC_mfRnxI_qzEojU7vzb5XKCEqww5l82IBZzIhCPea100_MvvpYj8zduG2fcLtyTW-8jj3f9qGowGEdiTDlNR4Ehebk4ApDqJGbaZsMcGgocK7_vHAhBk_8hmJJ1h4rT_E/s640/GB3.jpg" title="Bourjois Make Up" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcmRGTnL0eJi63cUT5VDqKvRsp1fRKYoVChcHtr8Opk7iuGzjn_6qt1MKvwfk47isIHOGzBd2BmO7DlRAGhZ23tuq9SuGU_Vd0jYdRRCEiAZo0Ddm6lITsMiAhRU0_yHWTOoxUmM-O4SPu/s1600/GB4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bourjois Make Up" border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcmRGTnL0eJi63cUT5VDqKvRsp1fRKYoVChcHtr8Opk7iuGzjn_6qt1MKvwfk47isIHOGzBd2BmO7DlRAGhZ23tuq9SuGU_Vd0jYdRRCEiAZo0Ddm6lITsMiAhRU0_yHWTOoxUmM-O4SPu/s640/GB4.jpg" title="Bourjois Make Up" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFP2CVHAeeTwjIw5OIP4I9us8XPiG48jHWJvAuk3oQopwdD4yhrYrq-0bZpBRIwZgv4X2pmY7WKqAhnY-LJlE0RHeajd8s4DTprbN3cNbSvauUkszVj0FDVZtTaUeWj4zhI_ffLZI2jaOJ/s1600/gb6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bourjois Make Up" border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFP2CVHAeeTwjIw5OIP4I9us8XPiG48jHWJvAuk3oQopwdD4yhrYrq-0bZpBRIwZgv4X2pmY7WKqAhnY-LJlE0RHeajd8s4DTprbN3cNbSvauUkszVj0FDVZtTaUeWj4zhI_ffLZI2jaOJ/s640/gb6.jpg" title="Bourjois Make Up" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For me, the highlight of this collection is the blue 1 second nail polish. I'm not sure it did dry in one second but it was chip free for a good 4 days, beautiful to apply thanks to the flat ended brush and generated a heap of compliments- what more do you want in a polish? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm excited by the cream blushes, apprehensive of the powder ones (never had much luck with the colour pay off) and intrigued by the bronzing products.

I love a bit o' bronze in<i> all </i>the months! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If any of these products really impress or really disappoint, I'll be sure to write a review and let you know. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">What experiences have you had with Bourjois products?

I do love dark smokey eyes and bright lips but I feel very confident and comfortable in this more low key one.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: center;">Beauty Products To Achieve This Look</h3><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXN5hoNH8QpW8n-lWNnjfwzCfapWl3bcugIu2S4Do22VAUeQksQM3gqQL-K8maEiWhAoRpaqu9-9PAJ_CS-VdINsCeREr02E8XCT2TeFUNkbE20INLDo8NtoBLw_bIYMQ9NqcDYqyBpjVp/s1600/FOTD1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Beauty Products for the Face Sprinkle of Glitter" border="0" height="620" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXN5hoNH8QpW8n-lWNnjfwzCfapWl3bcugIu2S4Do22VAUeQksQM3gqQL-K8maEiWhAoRpaqu9-9PAJ_CS-VdINsCeREr02E8XCT2TeFUNkbE20INLDo8NtoBLw_bIYMQ9NqcDYqyBpjVp/s640/FOTD1.jpg" title="Beauty Products for the Face Sprinkle of Glitter" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">MAC Strobe Liquid :: Great to mix into foundation to give lacklustre skin a bit of luminosity.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">MakeUp Forever HD Foundation :: I love the finish of this but I do find it needs the strobe liquid to prevent the dreaded 'flat face'.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">MAC MSF in Soft and Gentle :: My holy grail. There is no other warm toned highlighter in your life. Stop what you're doing and buy one now.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Sienna X Matte Contour Powder :: Incredible pigmentation, I have been using this every day for over 3 months and look how much I've used- next to nothing!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Clarins Palette Eclat Face and Blush Powder :: I focused my brush more on the coral and pink tones  for a blush and was really impressed with the lovely candy hue it gave.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI1WsxmSThH7s8ZR3vYm2Yvz6deCfSwJzHErexGmlk7BLJaK0Nv6dE0bfcZDtecLpYPcKUXeifEwu-nm89iWz4tmE1AUhaP35RfrDaI3lt-NmSVNmWVELhImjOBuTGIIh_mgepKcDHXSxY/s1600/FOTD2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Beauty Products for the Eyes Sprinkle of Glitter" border="0" height="506" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI1WsxmSThH7s8ZR3vYm2Yvz6deCfSwJzHErexGmlk7BLJaK0Nv6dE0bfcZDtecLpYPcKUXeifEwu-nm89iWz4tmE1AUhaP35RfrDaI3lt-NmSVNmWVELhImjOBuTGIIh_mgepKcDHXSxY/s640/FOTD2.jpg" title="Beauty Products for the Eyes Sprinkle of Glitter" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">L'oreal Super Carbon Gloss Liquid Liner :: Fabulous for winged liner in a rush.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Topshop Kohl in Coal :: Works wonder on your water line and also smudges well on the skin if you want it to.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Boots No. 7 Exquisite Curl Mascara :: The curved bristle wand is great for catching every eyelash and coating from root to tip.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Benefit They're Real Mascara :: Use to just thicken up the outer corner lashes. I think I really like this mascara but I'm still having the odd off day with it.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">MAC Paint Pot in Bare Study :: The all time perfect champagne base colour for eyeshadows.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">MAC Cyrstal Avalanche, Antiqued and Amber Lights :: Ideal for creating a neutral eye with a bit of a kick.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Look Beauty Brow Perfect Kit :: Despite being so hard to open that I jabbed 2 finger nails in the powder (massive grrr), I love this little powder compact. It does just the job for unruly brows, you are given a lot for your money and it's under a tenner. Woop.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi69S1Ihi5KNMYwX7OY65x1eE4IZ8GcU21SPIaEzBKhh4Iw8qpsijmT2cdQm9zVO8jms_lAx0AxoGsaXbFsedschDdLuSdmZTMbWx7wysMo2-bbiGkUSbsfrnODXeqDCb-AuMDPnBPK2CJF/s1600/FOTD4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Beauty Products for the Lips Sprinkle of Glitter" border="0" height="414" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi69S1Ihi5KNMYwX7OY65x1eE4IZ8GcU21SPIaEzBKhh4Iw8qpsijmT2cdQm9zVO8jms_lAx0AxoGsaXbFsedschDdLuSdmZTMbWx7wysMo2-bbiGkUSbsfrnODXeqDCb-AuMDPnBPK2CJF/s640/FOTD4.jpg" title="Beauty Products for the Lips Sprinkle of Glitter" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Balmi Lip Balm in Raspberry :: I have two balmis and I adore them both. I keep them in my makeup drawers (because my last one broke in my handbag, I'd like slightly sturdier packaging) and apply them right at the start of my routine, when I do my moisturiser, and then by the time I come to putting on my lipstick, my lips are fully ready and in prime condition. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Clarins Joli Rouge Brilliant Perfect Shine Sheer Lipstick in Guava :: This lipstick is from the new Spring Summer collection and I have been loving it. It's delicate, subtle but with a hint of glimmer- perfect for day to date!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And that's it! When you lay it all out like that, it looks like a lot more than it feels. I just had a quick count and it was twenty products- crikey.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I quite enjoyed doing a FOTD post in this style, with group product photos- what do you think?
