Pea's April Favourites 2014

Hi loves! Cannot believe its another month closer till I am back in Make-up land!
So my favourites these months are not as many but I find myself reaching for them daily.

Benefit Big Easy // Biore Aqua BB
These two have been pretty new and review for each of them individually can be found here and here
I love each of them on its own but mixing the two together is totally BOMBDIGGIDITY.





















Benefit BB Easy is a very matte finish and Biore Aqua BB has tiny micro glitters in it. I love the Benefit BB for its oil control. I can honestly say I have never met a base that can provide such nice coverage, lightweight and last ALL DAY. like this shit last 12 hours and more. With the added Biore Aqua BB, it gives me a nice 3D glow and still able to last an entire day!





















This photo is taken under direct sunlight and I love the natural glow it gives me without looking overly dewy or oily.

Benefit Lollitint 
I swatched this when I first got it and you can see it here and I honestly love it. I love how long it lasts and how beautifully pigmented it is. It takes alot of wipes to remove it though haha but I am so looking forward to getting the other full sized tints from Benefit. I use an ELF stippling brush to apply because it picks up the right amount without making me look like I slathered blush all over myself 

Catrice Made-to-Stay Highlighter Pen


I think this pen was made for the inner corners of the eye but it is such a pretty peach color that I love using it on my cheekbones. It complements Lollitint really well and it cost only $7.90 if i remember it correctly! It blends really easily and gives a soft glow to the cheeks. There are two more variations of this pen but I love this particular shade.

NYX HD Photogenic Concealer
I actually bought this on a wimp when I was looking for a base without SPF for photos, and since I got the NYX HD foundation, I decided to get the concealer as well. I actually chucked it aside for a super long time and just picked it up again. I have not been able to put it down for two whole weeks since.

This concealer is really liquidy but at the same time, its not drying. It doesn't set into fine lines and feels really light. I use that amount shown in the picture to cover my undereyes and a little goes a looooong way. It is highly pigmented as well! Because it is so liquidy, I use my ring fingers and pat it in really easily. I think this would act as a nice highlight color because of how light it is. This shade is in 02 Fair/Clair. I use use a little powder to set it in after and this allows it to last an entire day. 

Ok, this wasn't as long-winded as before. Haha hope everyone had an awesooome April! :D what else would you like to see? Let us know! 

Love,
Pea
