On the weekend I visited Boyfriends family. After speaking to his sister, I found out she is learning how to make sugar flowers and offered to show me how to make some. I enjoyed it that much that I am now looking into it myself. I have found a website and bought some basic items to make a birthday cake for my grandma. I still have about a month to go before her birthday so I can get some practise in before then. But hopefully things go well. =)

Well today I bought Revlon Beyond Natural Foundation in Light 210.

The claim is the foundation starts out white and as you blend it in, it will transform to match your exact skin tone.

Now this is my opinion so I can't say it's 100% accurate but in squeezing out some foundation I noticed little dark dots-microbeads. These beads are what contain the coulour so blending them bursts the microbeads and releases the colour.

Does it match your skin tone perfectly? No not completely, but I must say it is almost perfect.I have olive undertones, but am pale at the moment as we are just coming out of winter. I used 210 light on my skin, and as said before it is almost a perfect match.

As for coverage it is not the best. Once on I found the foundation light weight and matte. After almost 5 hours I needed to add a little powder to control the shine. I have oily,combination skin so this would be why.If you are after a light weight,light coverage foundation just to even out your skintone I would definately reccomend this. I paid $29.95 and will be using again.

On a slightly different note I have extremely sensitive skin, not to the elements outside, but chemicals in products. I have had this foundation on all day and have not reacted at all. I say this just in case there are others out there like me and are not sure wether to buy this product due to this reason.

First off I would like to thank http://btemplates.com for my template =)

I never know what to write in these situations. What do you put in a blog? Well as I often buy products and see movies I didn't think it would hurt to give my personal thoughts/ review on such items.

Someone may or may not find this useful, but I know I often like to hear others thoughts on products, as this is often the best way to get a real view of what the product is like.

Also as I constantly contend with my anxiety and depression, I may express how I am feeling or some of the issues I face as a result.

Anyway I'm pretty pleased with my first post.
Hopefully there will be plenty more to come. =)
