Haul: A Few Cheeky Purchases!

 Hello girlies!

Thought I would just let you know about some recent purchases of mine! I picked up three stila products from TKMaxx the other day! I got the Stila Sheer Colour Tinted Moisturiser with SPF 30, along with a concealer (which is far too dark so I can giving to my friend!) and a high-shine lip colour in the shade 'Serena' - a pretty "my lips but better with shimmer" colour! I have so far been LOVING the tinted moisturiser (expect to see that in a video soon) and the high shine lip colour is beautiful! The best thing about the stila products? I only paid £9.99 for all three! Amazing, I know! Obviously you can't pick and choose colours/shades very easily, but none the less, an incredible deal! I recommend popping down to your local TKMaxx and see what they have to offer!

I also picked up Cosmopolitan's beauty blender dupe from superdrug for £4.99 too on the same day when my EcoTools stippling kabuki failed on me and began to shred awfully! I picked this up as a temporary way to apply my foundation while I had nothing else (I now own the RT core collection - amazing!) and it actually worked pretty well! I think it's a great sponge and its very easy to use/work with!

Have you picked up anything exciting recently?

All for now folks!

Much Love,

Review: Benefit Eye Bright Pencil!

Today I have a little review on something I picked up last week during my Easter holidays - Benefits 'Eye Bright ' Pencil. This is a product that has been on my wishlist for a while now as I haven't really seen anything like it anywhere else. It was £14.50 so a little steep for a pencil but I think it was definitely worth it!

So, first off, the colour of the pencil is a milky pink colour with a slight hint of shimmer (more noticeable when applied to the eye) and although it is in pencil form, it glides onto the eye area easily and effortlessly as it were a gel formula and requires little blending.

 Another thing I love about this product is how multi-purpose it is. I like to use this for highlighting the inner and outer corners of my eyes to brighten them up, line my waterline with it to make my eyes appear bigger and brighter and this pencil also works well on under-eye circles to get rid of any tiredness or darkness.

I find that the pencil has great staying power, but depending on what I'm doing (sport, shopping etc.) it can fade a bit on my waterline, but this is the only place I have noticed it fading.

The only other downside is that the pencil requires sharpening and to do this you have to purchase the benefit sharpener as no other typical sharpener is suitable for the job because the benefit pencils are generally thicker than the average eye pencil.

Overall I love this product and have used it everyday since I bought it, its a great investment and something I will get a lot of use out of and will re-purchase.

Hope you enjoyed!

Much Love,

NOTD: Topshop 'Causing A Stir'

I picked up this nail polish around September but surprisingly have only just gotten around to wearing it! Crazy stuff I know!

So this colour is in 'Causing A Stir' and its a gorgeous vibrant peach colour. It reminds me of Barry M's 'Peach Melba' but a shade darker! 

The formula is good as it only takes 1 - 2 coats to get a good, opaque layer. I really like the finish of this nail polish - its creamy and very shiny!

I love this colour and think its a great one for spring!

Review: Maybelline Colour 24H Eyeshadow in 'Permanent Taupe'!

Hello everyone, hope your having a wonderful day! :)

Now, there is no doubt you will have heard about these cream eyeshadows 'till the cows come home, and you probably already have some! But if not, here's yet another review just to persuade you even more!

Unfortunately in the Boots store I visited, they had sold out of both the gold & bronze colour so I decided to pick up this matte taupe colour.

The colour itself is very pigmented and to describe the colour I would say it is a grey toned taupe colour. It's the perfect colour for everyday wear and its easy to blend making it easy to work/play around with. I love wearing this all over the lid with shimmery white eye shadow over the top. It gives the look a lot more dimension!

As for staying power, these are brilliant! Not sure about 24h, but who wears eye shadow for 24 hours? Haha! These stay put on the lids very well and look as vibrant as they did when first applied. I was very impressed with this as my lids tend to be on the oily side.

And for price, these are extremely reasonable! They are only £4.99 and considering they are meant to be comparable to MAC's paint pots that is a steal! (& whoever gets through a jar this size anyway?!)

Overall these are an amazing products and I definitely want to check out the other shades, particularly the bronze and gold, but the aqua blue colour is tempting also for the summer!

Well that was my little review! Hope you all enjoyed & I will try and get another blog post (probably another review) to you all soon! Bye for now!

Much Love,

Lizzy
