Gotta Start From Somewhere!

Hi everyone!

Welcome to Brontie's Beauty Blog. As my first post I'd like to do a little about me :)

Starting with the basics; Obviously my name is Brontie, I'm a 19 year old student from Hobart, Tasmania. My hobbies include photography, beauty, spending time with my cats and of course, shopping!

I decided to start a blog because I love beauty and photography. So what do you get when you mix photography and beauty? A beauty blog!

I don't aim to get anything out of this blog, I'm just purely doing it for fun.

As for beauty, here's a few of my favorites.

My favorite brand would have to be Rimmel. They are the first brand I ever tried and they have never disappointed me. And compared to Revlon, Maybelline and such, they are quite cheap - not as cheap as Essence or Ulta3, but pretty close!

My favorite lipstick would either have to be Essence - All About Cupcake #53 or Rimmel - Nude Pink #206. They are both similar to my actual lip colour so they just ass that hint of shine.

My favorite lipgloss is Sally Hansen's Natural Shine Lip Gloss in Sweet Nectar. It's a nude/rose pink. Again, a similar colour to my lips.

My favorite blush is Maybelline Mineral Power Naturallu Luminous Blush (What a mouthful!) in Soft Mauve. Its the only blush I currently own.

My favorite eyeshadow is actually an entire palette. Its Urban Decay's Mariposa Palette. It has a great selection of neutral and bright eyeshadows.

My favorite eyeliners are; for liquid it is Maybelline Hyper Glossy Liquid Liner. I really reccomend this product as it is easy to use. For pencil its Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil in 01 Black Fever. This is a recent purchase of mine, but I only got it due to having another one in a different shade and i loved the way it applied. It is long lasting and glides on easy.

My favorite mascara has to be Maybelline's Great Lash range. I've tried them all and love them all. Infact, any mascara by Maybelline is pretty good.

My favorite foundations are for a BB cream, I reach for my Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream. I have the 2% Salicylic Acid version and I love it. It does cover up like it says it should, and it doesn't encourage acne to grow on my acne prone skin. My other foundation favorite is Revlon's Colorstay Whipped. Everyone has their own opinion on this. I personally think it is a tad thick, but I can work with it. It gives me the best coverage out of foundations i have previously used.

And finally, my favorite concealer is Rimmel's Hide The Blemish Concealer. And yep. It does hide the blemish, and the redness.

So this is a pretty darn long intro blog! Thats about me in a nutshell I guess. Please follow if you'd like to.

My next 3 blog posts planned are;

Bellabox Sept. Review (Coming this Thursday!)
Chi Chi Nudes Palette Review
My Spring Essentials

So until then, keep on smilin'

xo Brontie.
