Make Up Shopping on my day off in PaRis...

We had one day off in Paris which was super nice... I just ended up going make up shopping for things we do not have in here in the UK... My original plan was to go to Sacre-Coeur so I could catch the beautiful view of Paris... for some reason I have always managed to miss this everytime I have been to Paris... Guess what - I did it again... Instead I met up with a friend from Milan whom I haven't seen for years. After, I went shopping for the Make up forever HD concealers, which i couldn't get hold of in Milan... then I had to go to the Paris Berlin Store so I could get the famous sharpener. It is sooo good! (silly I know it is just a sharpener but seriously a MUST HAVE for all you makeup artists! maybe I shouldn't reveal this secret...; )

HD concealers by Makeup forever... the texture is amazing as it's light and highly pigmented - Love them! Don't like the silicone applicator - what is that all about!?!?! crap!

'THE' sharpener... the best well kept secret until I spilled the Beans...

only 3euro... so I bought 4...as I have a tendency to loose things...

Eye Pencil...Great because it is not white but flesh coloured = more natural with a softer finish when wanting to open up the eyes and making them bigger...

Oh and almost forgot to tell of this must have, especially if you are a makeup artist, as we all use it on the shows: BIODERMA crealine H2o makeup remover for sensitive skin (models tend to be very picky with what you use on their skin)... I went to the big drugstore on st Germanine but you can get it in every pharmacy in Paris. They had a deal with 2 for 17euro... (in the states it sometimes cost up to $48!!!) Anyhow... got a itsy bit carried away and had to buy them in all sizes...

also came across BIODERMA hand creme 2 for 3euro which I thought I ought to try as the makeup remover is so fab! will let you know the verdict on this product later...

My makeup artist friend Linda Anderson recomended this fixing spray which mainly hydrates the skin and 'resets' the makeup - great if you been wearing make up the whole day and just want to refresh, or simply just want to hydrate you face in general - Just spray on top!
