MAC Toolbelt


Empty Toolbelt

I've been collecting for just over a year now, and my collection has grown so fast. I've collected different brushes from different collections and I've worked very hard to get these brushes as we know there not cheap. I do have some more MAC brushes that I use loads like MAC 217s/222s and 105s because I use them a lot for blending, applying foundation etc. But I didn't count them in photos as I just wanted to show my MAC tool belt and my current collection I had in it. 

On the left hand side it has ''dry brushes'' where it has powder brushes/eye shadow brushes and brushes that I wouldn't apply anything wet with (e.g. foundation etc). On the right side it has ''wet brushes'' where it has foundation brushes/eye liners/ lip brushes/duo fibre brushes, just brushes I would apply anything wet/cream based.

In the pockets there isn't that much space because of all of the brushes. But on the right hand side I've put my MAC palette/spatula/slim mirror and my lip brushes (because there isn't anywhere I can fit them in). On the left hand pocket I have my two MAC 219sh brushes, as they won't fit with my other powder brushes and fit perfectly in there. In the middle part I just have my MAC tweezers, I do have all 3 but the other ones are in my MAC Zuca Bag (I will do a review on that very soon) and couldn't find them while I took these photos.

I got the MAC tool belt as a birthday present as my friend knew how much I love my MAC and found it for me, so I can't tell you where he got it from as he said he searched high and low for it as they don't sell it in the U.K (I use to look, but I know you can find it on eBay now, but be careful in case it's not fake). I got most of my brushes from MAC, MAC Pro Store and MAC online, I got the palette, spatula from MAC Pro store in London/New York.

The MAC tool belt is one of the best presents I’ve ever got, it looks super professional and really easy to grab your brushes/tools when you’re doing makeup on yourself/on a client. It has a nice strap and easy to adjust to anyone's waist. I just wish there were more spaces in the tool belt as I like to keep all my brushes together (as you can see). I now have got the MAC brush roll simply because I'm running out of space for my brushes in the tool belt.

Hope this post was helpful, and hope you enjoyed this post.

Have a great day, Thank you for reading.

I bought all of these items (except for the tool belt as I got that as a birthday present) with my own money. No company has sent me these items to review. All options and photos are my own.

My New Dressing Table and Set Up

♡ My New Dressing Table and Set Up ♡

Hi guys just a quick post to show you my new makeup station. I won’t show my old one, because it was just embarrassing. I love, love, love my new set up and wanted to share it with you guys. I have wanted this dressing table for so long, and I even wanted it so badly I actually made a Christmas wish list with this in it, and my amazing dad saw it and he went to IKEA and got it for me. Every time I went into IKEA I saw this and fell in love, I have been searching for a new dressing table for such a long time, and finally have found it and own it. It’s called Hemnes Dressing Table, it has a glass top which is great as my old one didn’t and had loads of marks and discolouration on the surface. There use to be two designs from the Hemnes Collection, one which has three drawers underneath it but I felt it was too high for me; it would be great if I was using it for standing up but I knew I would be sitting down while I do my makeup, but sadly that one has been discontinued now but the one which is available that I picked was perfect as it was low, but was high enough for my lighting.

           
In the 1^st drawer which in on the dressing table it has my Toner and my Cleansing Lotion in it, with some back up makeup wipes. Just items I need to use before I go to bed and need to make sure all my makeup is removed and clean.

 

 In 2nd drawer it just has makeup removers in it, same as first drawer just items to remove makeup befire I go to bed, or need to remove makeup in gereal. I usually have cotton pads in there as well, but they now live on top of that drawer as you can see in picture.

In the hidden drawer which is my favourite key feature of this makeup dressing table, as it has the perfect amount of space of my everyday makeup routine. I like to organise my makeup (as you will see with photos) and I was able to find clear plastic drawer organisers that fit perfectly in there (it's also from IKEA).

♡ In My Tower of Drawers ♡

My dad also got me this tower of drawers as I've never really had enough room for all of my makeup so these drawers I thought it would be perfect and I thought it was a quite good match to my dressing table. It has 9 drawers (5 small and 4 large). In each drawer I have have organised it so everything is together (e.g my eye shadow palettes together, my skin prep and prime together and my foundations together). There is tones of room left in my drawers and some of them are empty because I've organised all of my stuff together, which is perfect as my collection will only get bigger because I love makeup. So the photos I show you will be examples of how I've organised my makeup and what I've used to organise it. This is not a collection post but I will soon.
As you can see I also have my MAC Zuca on the right hand side of my dressing table, that also has makeup in it. But I will make a separate post about that, as I store a lot of my makeup in it and I always use it when I'm out or when I travel.

Some of my eyeshadow palettes:

 

Perfumes
 

Just to show you some of my ''Everyday/Most reached for Perfumes'' I have kept them on top of my makeup tower as they look pretty and kept with the theme of my room. And when I'm getting ready its easy to grab a perfume and go. My other perfumes are on a shelf in my room and there my more expenvive ones or ones I use on rare, special occassions, but my collection is getting stupid and I need to stop buying lol.

 
Clear Storage

I got all  of the clear storage I used in my dressing table and makeup tower also from ikea its
called GODMORGON collection, I have all of these in my Makeup Tower and in my Dressing table hidden
 drawer to orgainse my makeup. I will be getting more and I will also get some acrlyic lipstick holders from eBay (I will make a post of them, when I get them) to orgainse my lipsticks.

Hope you liked this little blog post.

Hope you like my new set up and it will be changing all the time, but I will make regualr updates with photos etc. Will defo do an review on the dressing table and tower.


Any questions, please feel free to comment

My 21st Makeup Look

My 21st Makeup Look

 

This is just a quick post to show you my Makeup I wore for my 21st Birthday. I will make a tutorial on this makeup look as soon as my camera is working.

Hope you like these photos I will upload a video as soon as I can.

It's a shimmery pink makeup look with full false eye lashes. It's a really simple look which would look great on every skin tone/eye colour and for any occasion!

And I just curled my hair to make my makeup really stand out.

Have an amazing day and please stay turned for videos and for more posts.
