Products I've hit pan on | 2

If you're not familiar with the term "hitting pan" it basically just means that you've used enough
of the product to show the bottom of the pan (packaging).
It shows products that I really do love and use on a regular basis!
 
This post has caused me quite a lot of problems and I was just about to give up when my camera batteries had ran out and couldn't find anymore but then I had a thought. So here's a retake of this post improvising with my webcam. Hopefully this doesn't come out too bad, but I do think the lighting in these products is very true to life, which is the main reason I'm not giving up! Also feel like it makes the post a little more personal, so here goes..
 

 

My every day blush and bronzer combination.
Mac Crème Blush in Something Special
Dior Bronze 002 Honey Tan
 


 
My everyday powder blush option (I basically used this everyday before I bought the Mac one above, but they still great together if you want to set the crème blush for a matte finish) This is so cheap, so I think everyone needs to own this, amazing for oily skin as it is matte!
Natural Collection in Pink Cloud
 

 
Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium. This is my handbag powder because it's so low maintenance, you can literally put this on forever and never look cakey. Amazing for quick touch ups without a mirror. This is the first thing I will be purchasing again.
 
Stila Angel light powder in shade e (refill pan) this is marketed as a foundation powder however because of the colouring it worked so well as a contour for me, literally used it everyday I had it. If anyone can recommend a matte powder this sort of warm beige colour, comment below! Looking for alternatives, because as a brand I don't feel Stila is worth the high end price.

Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural Medium





This is dare I say it, is the powder of all powders. I've tried a few other mac powders, the blot one etc (I liked that it had a mirror and that was it lol) and lots from other brands but I've never experienced a powder that looks non existent on the skin! All other powders I've used in the past gave me the cakey, talc look and dear knows how I looked if I applied a little too much?! I dread to think now.
But with the mac mineralize skinfinish natural I find it takes down shine, sets my foundation but I still look healthy and my skin actually looks like skin! You can even reapply and you never look cakey! If you've combination/normal skin (not uber oily because maybe you do need a heavy powder to absorb the excess) this powder would be amazing! I have had mine (pics above) for a year, used it everyday and still have loads left, so if you think its a little pricey at just a little over £20 I think, it is worth the money.

Any one else agree with me? Thanks for reading xoxo
