PRODUCT REVIEW - STILA SAY ALL DAY WATERPROOF LIQUID EYELINER

Image
Now this is kind of a cult product, but never the less I needed a new liquid eyeliner and this one just spoke to me. Now, no word of a lie, I swatched this on my hand just a simple line in the morning when it arrived in the post...and later on in the day went for a shower, I washed my hair etc...and when I got out of the shower, the liner was still on my hand. Now that's what Iike to call waterproof!  This liner gives you a very black liner and its very simple to use as it comes in a pen form. I prefer pens to the liners you have to use with a brush. I'm very impressed with the Stila eyeliner and would definitly recommend this product to you guys, if your on the hunt for a no budge eyeliner that will last all day. 

PRODUCT REVIEW - CHARLOTTE TILBURY FILMSTAR BRONZE AND GLOW

Image
This is gorgeous!  This palette comes with a highlighter and a bronzer, but they compliment each other so well, and personally I think it's hard to go over the top with this product becuase the colours are brilliantly made to not look muddy or too orange, and with the highlighter not to white and power like. The highlighter leaves a subtle glow that looks lovely in daylight, and its not too harsh. You can build this up for more of a dramatic look for the evening and ti would still look natural. The colour is a golden apricot pink colour with shimmer running through out it. the bronzer doesn't look massivly different from the highlighter in the pan but when swatched it leaves a beautiful warm bronzed glow to the skin, nothing too orange or muddy like I said before, just a lovely 'I've just been away' glow.  This is great product if you new to highlighting and contouring and I don't think you could go wrong with this palette!

PRODUCT REVIEW - CHARLOTTE TILBURY - THE DOLCE VITA PALETTE

Image
Now I know this is a cult favourite, and I'm so late on the bandwagon, but still I wanted to do a review of this gorgeous palette.  Dolce Vita stood out to me the most, I think this would look great on any eye colour, but with my blue eyes, it really makes them pop! In the pan you get four shades- No1 Prime, No2 Enhance, No3 Smoke and No4 Pop. The top left colour is a champagne nude shimmer colour, in no light you can't really get the effect of this colour, but when in light its a lovely diffused highlighter colour. Next up on the top right is a lovely burnished copper brown, this is the colour that I fell in love with! You can build it up for a more dramatic look or wear it sheer. On the bottom right we have the smoke colour, this is really a bronze colour with golden shimmer through out it.  And lastly the pop colour, the colour that catches your eye in the pan is a gorgeous glitter, that is yellowy, copper gold. All the colour in the pan are so wearable and look so

PRODUCT REVIEW - THE BODY SHOP TEA TREE BLEMISH FACE NIGHT LOTION

Image
I don't want to come across too excited, but guys I have found another wonder product! The Body Shop tea tree blemish fade night lotion actually works wonders! I have been using mine for about two weeks and I can definitly see a difference on my face. I have quite a few scars that have been left over from spots and it sucks that even though you have make-up on you can still see them, when you don't even had spots! So i was browsing on Body Shop, (they always have some type of offer on, really good, check it out!) and came across this and it got rave reviews, so I thought what the hell, let's try it. It's fab! I can see that it has started fading the scars away and it's also helping to keep spots at bay. The product itself comes in like a light gel form and sinks into the skin quite quickly. It does smell of tea tree but I think when it's on the face and sunk into the skin you can't smell any over powering fragrance left over. I'm very happy with

PRODUCT REVIEW - LILY LOLO VS SIGMA BRUSHES (DUPES)

Image
Todays post is on brushes, specifically brushes by the brand Lily Lolo. Now I had never heard of this brand of brushes before, but I was in desperate need of some new eyeshadow brushes and I was looking on feelunique.com. Check it out guys if you haven't before!  Anyway, they were way cheaper than other brushes! Around the £5 mark I believe, but my God people! These are awesome! I also bought some Sigma brushes too, and these are the dupes for them , there such good quality, no harsh bristles but soft and fluffy! I will definitly be purchasing more of these brushes in the future! Both the Lily Lolo and Sigma brushes are lovely to look at . The Sigma Blending E25 is a soft flat but domed brush and the Lily Lolo Eye shadow brush is almost exactly the same - maybe a little less domed at the top but very similar! The Sigma Tapered Blending E40 is a quite a long bristles, that are nice and fluffy, very good for blending and the Lily Lolo Eye blending brush in my
