It's been a while since I last wrote up a round up of my favourite instagrams, and recently I have been seriously obsessed with a few. You may notice there's a theme running through these images... I seem to be obsessed with white, clean instagram pages. I just think they look really simple, minimal and beautiful really! These are 5 accounts that I have truly been swooning over and constantly re-checking for new updates. Actually, recently I have clicked the option to be notified whenever they post (a new and fabulous instagram feature) so I never miss a new beautiful post! I also tried to include some accounts that didn't have thousands of followers because I think there are so many accounts out there that are beautiful and deserve way more attention than they get. Hope you enjoy scrolling through these beautiful accounts!

Choosing High End Foundations

When it comes to high end foundations, the price tag can seem quite ridiculous. $90 for a foundation?? Is it made of gold?! Most of the times though, these price tags are pretty justified. The formulas of higher end foundations can tend to be of higher quality and made with better-for-your-skin ingredients. That said however, I think its definitely important to do your research before splashing out!

I have recently been on the hunt for the perfect foundation and to do so I have begun a little collection of samples from different brands of various different foundations- all of which, I have read great reviews on. Obtaining said samples is actually pretty easy, most department store counters will happily colour match you and then give you a reasonable sized sample. These samples have about 2-3 uses depending on how heavy handed you are with your application. I think it's a great way of trying out an expensive foundation for free before you spend your hard earned money on it. Its important to make sure the formula is right for you. For me this means its long-lasting, doesn't look cakey, has a medium coverage and blends nicely.

So far I'm pretty impressed with the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation but I will keep you up to date with my findings in a future post!

Which are your favourite high end foundations?
