The rest of the day I spent going to an open day for a course and flat viewings which went by so quick.

Funchal & CR7 Museum... Day 10

On Friday (9th) we headed to Funchal as the boyfriend had an appointment and while we was in the capital we had the chance to look around and sightsee while we could.

We got to go to Cristiano Ronaldo's museum, I've been wanting to check it the entire time I was in Madeira, got to take picture with Ronaldo even though it wasn't the real thing, if anyone is in Madeira I recommend you check the museum out.

After some sightseeing we met up with Nelsons parents for a nice meal at a nice Restaurant called As Vides in Câmara do Lobos, it was nice to spend some time with his parents.

Into the Woods... Day 9

The whole 'Lemos' side of the family had planned on going to Pico Das Pedras in Santana to have a picnic kind of sep we made the food there, I'm a fan on nature so when I saw the place I love it and I thought it look like the perfect place to camp out and hike too. 

Everyone had planned to go Pico Das Pedras as everyone was still in Madeira so everyone could be together as a family, while the guys prepared food (pasta with pork and chicken, it was so goood.) everyone else was playing football, talking or playing on the playground. It was nice to spend time with everyone.

Lets smoke it out

If you saw/read yesterdays post you'll know I've recently made a little Mac purchase and I've been wanting to try out the Pro Longer Paint Pot Peinture in Constructivist, luckily on Sunday I got an excuse to wear it, as I was going back to Oxford to visit some relatives I wanted to create a grungy smokey eye with this paint pot right from the moment I got this, what I love about this product that it looks great messy or neat depending on how you'll like to use it and you really can't go wrong with it.

I decided to go for a smokey grunge look, I used Constructivist all over the lid with a Mac 239 eye shader brush and blanded it out with a Mac 217 blending brush and I just kept adding to it until I knew it was done, I also put some under the bottom lash line with a 239 and blended it out with a 217.

What I used for the rest of the face, Foundation: Rimmel Wake me up foundation in Soft Beige, for concealer I used Makeup Revolution in Light-Medium, Blush Sleek in Flushed and for Mascara I used Rimmer Wonder'full Mascara with Argan Oil in Black. I went over my T-Zone with Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder in Transparent and for bronzer/contour I used Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder in Medium/Dark.

Mac Haul

I don't think I've done a Mac haul in a very long time meaning I needed to have a little treat all though I shouldn't really when Ill be moving out and I need to start saving but hey it doesn't hurt to treat yourself to something nice once in a while right?

Last week I popped into London for flat viewings but before that I met up with a close friend and of course we popped into Mac store to check some of their stuff out, I won't lie as say the only things I've got from Mac is foundation, lipsticks and makeup brushes, while looking around I spotted the Pro Longer Paint Pot Peinture in Constructivist, when I came across this I knew I had to get it and give it ago, its a brown tone eyeshadow with metallic shine to it, I don't have any shade like this and I've been loving the groungy eye look and I felt like this would go perfect with it, I've realise that I tend to use more of cream eyeshadows so I know i'll be getting a lot out of this product. 

The second thing I purchased was Satin Lipstick in Captive, I wanted a pinkish-plum tone lipstick for quiet a while but never seemed to find the right one until I came across this one in store, I tend to get matte Mac lipsticks but I've recently wanting more of a creamy (satin) feel and more comfortable to wear, this is by far my favourite Mac lipstick I've got and of course I had to add to my mac lipstick collection.

What is your favourite Mac product? Thanks for reading x

Lets sightsee... Day 8 part 2

It's the second part of day 8, Some more pictures from Caniçal, this is one of the places I wanted to visit the most on this holiday, when I first came to Madeira I went to Caniçal but I don't really remember and apparently I went a couple times after that but I don't remember and all I have is pictures but I just wanted to visit the place and I loved it even though it was cold and windy I still loved seeing everything.

After sightseeing, we popped in Machico and we just chilled my the beach, it was so peaceful and relaxing just watching the waves.

Lets go for a hike... Day 8 Part 1

I've decided to split day 8 into 2 parts because I have so many holiday snaps and I really couldn't choice which ones to pick from.

One of the places I wanted to go and see on this little holiday was Caniçal, its such a beautiful place to see, I have picture of this place when I went for the very first time in Madeira and I don't really remember going there again so it was one of the top places I wanted to see.

If you want to go on a hike then Caniçal is the place for you, we didn't go all the way until the very end mainly because it was cold and I wasn't wearing the proper food wear for a hiking.

Tomorrow will be the 2 part of day 8, but if you want to check previous holiday snap you can (link)
