Here’s what I wore Wednesday March 18. The olive green T-shirt just fit over my baby bump, which made me very happy, because I thought it would look great paired with my satiny robe.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I really love all the colours in the shirt; they’re great inspiration for a make-up look.

Here’s what I wore Tuesday March 17. I had brunch with my mum and afterwards we went shopping. It was a lovely day.

I have a collective Beauty Bay haul to share with you today. They had a really big sale back in January and their website has since been down, but it looks like it’s back up, and it’s had a makeover. I took advantage of the sale, and I also picked up my first products from Flower Knows.
By BEAUTY BAY had just launched a new eyeshadow palette in a new format right before the big sale, and since I buy most limited edition palettes from By BEAUTY BAY I had to pick it up. It’s called the Wanderscape 20 colour palette.
The rest of the products were on sale apart from some of the Flower Knows stuff. I got another palette from Samplr. This is the #01_ENERGY 25-pan colour palette. I liked the first palette I got from Samplr, and I like the single shadows/customisable concept of the Samplr palettes. I created this look with this particular palette.
I got this Trixie Cosmetics Play Pigment in Pac Ma’am, which I think is mainly meant for the eyes, but I guess you can use it however you like.
From Anastasia Beverly Hills I got the Smooth Blur contour stick in Halftone, the Lip Velvet in Blackberry, and a mini Brow Wiz in Ash Brown. The contour stick came a little smooshed, but I can still use it, and I like it so far. I love the Lip Velvet formula from ABH, and the Blackberry shade was on my wishlist, and I’ve never tried the Brow Wiz, so I thought I would give it a go.
I’ve been really enjoying the Sacheu Beauty lip liner STAY-IN in getREDy, so I decided to get the Bestseller Bundle, which includes the shades 02 MUAH-ve, 03 p-INKED, and 04 HEY-zal.
I bought these four blushes in the sale; the MAC Extra Dimension blush in Wrapped Candy, two Urban Decay Face Bond blushes in the shades Touch Me and Slow Burn, and the Urban Decay Hydromaniac Blush Glow Hydrator in Red Flag. I haven’t tried the Urban Decay Hydromaniac Blush Glow Hydrator yet, but I really like the other three blushes.
Let’s move on to the items I got from Flower Knows. This brand might not be perfect for my make-up taste and use, but the packaging is stunning. So I decided to get the Flower Knows Shell’s Jewel Collection satin blush in Luna Pearl and the Flower Knows Shell’s Jewel Collection 6-Color makeup palette in Moonlight Pearl (which was actually on sale, when I bought it). These products are almost too pretty to use.
I also got the Flower Knows Shell’s Jewel Collection highlighter balm & charm sets in Blue Tears (not sale) + Moonlight Stone (sale). The packaging on these are not as nice as the packaging on the blush and the eyeshadow palette though.
The last product I purchased from Flower Knows was the Strawberry Cupid Dall Day Glow liquid blush in 04 Apple Glow. Such cute packaging as well.
Lastly, I got two gifts with my two orders. I got a Flower Knows Midsummer Fairytales Collection hand mirror in White Vanilla and a By BEAUTY BAY lip liner in Whip.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Even though I prefer a colourful eye look, I do think that there’s something about a neutral eye look paired with a red lip.
(Base: primer – Iconic London Underglow blurring primer, foundation – Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blur + Smooth skin tint stick (shade: 2), concealers – Rare Beauty Positive Light under eye brightener (shade: Light) + Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Lift & Flex concealer (shade 2), powder – NYX Wonder Snatch powder in 01 Sugar Serve. Face make-up: bronzer – Revlon SkinLights Prismatic bronzer in 110 Sunlit Glow, blush – Moira Marvelous baked blush in 008 Cherry Crumble, highlighter – Catrice More Than Glow highlighter in 010 Ultimate Platinum Glaze.

Eyebrows: NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen in Ash Brown + e.l.f. Cosmetics Brow Lift. Lips: Rare Beauty Kind Words matte lip liner + lipstick in Devoted)
Here’s what I wore Monday March 16. I find this floral blazer difficult to style, but I thought it would be fun to wear over the red and white striped T-shirt to create some contrast between patterns and fabrics.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. This is a very soft and toned down make-up look, which is not something I wear very often, but I think it’s a pretty look nonetheless.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Green eyeshadow and red lipstick aren’t only for the Christmas season. Change up the undertones and the combo works all year round.

Here’s what I wore Wednesday March 11. I feel pretty limited when it comes to clothing I can fit right now, so getting dressed is all about being creative with what I’ve got.
