PRODUCT REVIEW - SHU UEMURA PAINTING LINER

Image
I have always been an eyeliner pen kind of gal. But this was a sale purchase and i wanted to see how I would get on using an eyeliner paint pot...It definitly takes a little more skill to apply but after a few attempts I found this to be pretty easy to use with an eyeliner brush. The product itself comes in a gel form that doesn't crease or flake, it creates a fluid line that lasts. It's super black which i like and you can really draw the perfect line with it.

PRODUCT REVIEW - SHU UEMURA METAL INK EYELINER

Image
After I saw this i had to have it! This is an eyeliner that looks metallic, the colour I got was brown . I just though this would look so good on a night out when you dont want to spend ages blending eyeshadows together etc, a swipe of this and it's got something to to it than just your plain old regualar eyeliner. The fact is th at this is 'metal' it has a shine to it. The product itself will stay put for a long time. It comes as a wand that unscrews from a pot, but this is basically like using an eyeliner pen. I'm really loving using this right now as it just adds something else to your look!

PRODUCT REVIEW - YSL LE SAHARIENNE SUNKISSED BLUR PERFECTOR BALM-POWDER

This I have wanted to have for an age but couldn't find anywhere that stocked it! But Boots was my saviour! I snatched this up in an instance and fell in love with it straight away. First of all the packing of YSL products out rivals all and this was no exception, it even comes with a little pouch and a brush/sponge duo too. (It's the little things!) This is such a miraculous product, I know it says 'blur' in the title but it really does just that! Blurs over all imperfections and makes everything look much smoother than before you applied it, which is kind of odd for a bronzer to do?! Again this gives you a gorgeous glow and you can even use this to contour if you like, although I really like it to add some warmth to my skin. I really do think this is my favourite bronzer, I'm a big fan of this and really reccommend you try this!

PRODUCT REVIEW - STILA EYES ARE THE WINDOW SHADOW PALETTE (SOUL)

If you haven't read my previous post on the 'Spirit' palette go check it out, however I will do a quick re-cap. I love these eyeshadows! They are buttery and blend very easily, the shade  range in each palette is great, you pretty much use all the shades which I personally find very hard to do as there is at least one 'dud' shade in the bunch, but not with these! I was so impressed with my 'Spirit' palette that I went out and bought the 'Soul' palette, this is towards the more brown/nude family where are the 'Spirit' palette is more in the rosegold/brown family however they are both gorgeous! These retail at £30 in the UK. Not the cheapest palette but for 12 great shades I think this is a bargin compared to others, etc; Charlotte Tilbury palettes which only have 4 shades and costs £38! I also think the quality of these eyeshadows is great, they are soft and creamy and blend easily. Colour-wise the matte shadows take a bit more applicati
