I'd spent months looking for a makeup that would match my skintone and wouldn't make me look too orange and cakey. After enduring this frustration and spending a small fortune, I finally found what I was looking for in the form of a cheap powder recommended by someone on Yahoo! Answers.

Olive Oil

So, as you can probably tell by my posting of the sugar olive oil scrub recipe, I have just discovered the wonders of olive oil.

I, like many other people, was very hesitant about putting oil on my face. I mean, I was trying to stop greasy skin, not add to it! But seriously, olive oil is one of the most amazing moisturisers I have ever found. And what's more? It's completely natural. That's right, no little nasty chemicals to attack your skin.

So, it's three hours before prom and I have no decent eyeliner! *panic*. I have tiny eyes, so eyeliner is a must.
I was hesitant to buy this product - I'd never used gel liner and I hadn't read any reviews, so I was like, 'do I really want to buy this and end up with a rubbish poduct and no alternative?' My instincts said yes and I bought it and wow, I'm so glad I did.
