PRODUCT REVIEW - BY TERRY OMBRE BLACKSTAR EYESHADOWS + COVER EXPERT FOUNDATION


So last week I went browsing on the Space NK website. One of my favourite stores! And they had on a discount code when you spent £40 or more. So obviously I had to buy something! I had been looking into the By Terry Cover Expert as lots of people have been saying how amazing this foundation is, so I looked at swatches and read up on it, and decided to go for No. 4 Rosy Beige. This colour is a perfect match for my skin as I have more of a pink undertone to my skin rather than yellow. This covers flaws, and also makes you skin glow and look beautiful. I think I might be in love! This is on the more expensive side at £45, but I would say that this foundation is well worth the money!

The next two items the By Terry Ombre Blackstar Eyeshadows. My heart sunk a little when the two colours that I originally wanted "Misty Rock" and "Bronze Moon" were out of stock. However these products get great reviews so I looked at the swatches of the other colours and decided to get "Velvet Orchid" and "Brown Perfection", which are both gorgeous. These again are on the pricey side, but again all By Terry products are. The Ombre Blackstar Eyeshadows retail at £28 each, but they last and last and last! No creasing either. Perfect for swipe on and go.

PRODUCT REVIEW - BY TERRY OMBRE BLACKSTAR MISTY ROCK AND BRONZE MOON (UPDATED)

Image
If you saw my previous blog post on the By Terry Ombre Blackstar eyeshadows you would see that I wanted to originally get 'Misty Rock' and 'Bronze Moon' however when I went on Space NK, they were out of stock (cries!) however I did get them a few weeks back and I said I would do swatches, sorry they are so late but it's better than never! So here they are... (Bronze Moon on the left and Misty Rock on the right) These are super pigmented and very shimmery and simply look gorgeous on!  I have never know another eye product to last so long, even swatching them on my hand it took a good scrub to get the product off! These retail at £28, not cheap but so worth the money in my opinion!  In terms of colour Bronze Moon is a almost a bronze/gold/brown shade and Misty Rock is a pinky/mauve colour. Both utterly stunning and really make the eyes pop when you wear the colour on your lids. You can either do a quick swipe and go or you can really layer on the prod

PRODUCT REVIEW - KEVYN AUCOIN EXPERT LIP COLOURS IN SIREEDAN, ROSERIN AND MICAVEL

Image
After reading a few posts about the Kevyn Aucoin lipsticks I decided to bite the bullet (anyone else get the lipstick pun there?!)  After looking through the variety of colours on offer I couldn't choose between three so typically got them all! ...More swatches for you guys! The first one I really wanted was so different in colour from my usual pink/coral/orange lipsticks. But after seeing a picture on the Internet a girl wearing it, it just looked so damn good! Queue ROSERIN - Described on the packaging as a 'plum rose'. A very apt description I would say.  Up next is SIREEDAN - described as a 'peachy nude', again bang on with the description. This is a perfect lipstick for day to day wear as it's that 'your lips but better' colour. And lastly, but definitely not least, is MICAVEL - a 'creamy coral'. So true, this is a very light coral/apricot colour and is great if your getting into oranges or corals. This is a very good colour to star

PRODUCT REVIEW - MAX FACTOR COLOUR ELIXIR LIP LINERS

Image
These have become my favourite drug store lip liners! Max Factor has come out with a pretty great shade range from nudes to pinks to browns to reds! Horaay! I have found these last a good 5 hours plus and the don't dry your lips out like some liners can...These are easily sharpened and last a long while (ie. use) My favourite colour is Pink Petal, which is a nudey pink, like a 'your lips but better' colour (It looks completely a different colour in these photos by the way!) I have also found that Red Rush last ages and doesn't bleed and it matches most of my red lipsticks (winner!) I would say that these aren't the cheapest drug store lip liners, retailing at £4.99. The texture of these it great, they are quite creamy and sit on the lips very comfortably and the pigmentation of these are very good. At some reviews I have looked at said they loved the product but when comes to sharpening it, it breaks...this has not been an issue for me personally, so make sure yo
