Dupe Alert | Urban Decay Naked Palettes VS W7 Palettes

Hello beauties,

 

The Urban Decay Naked palettes have taken over the beauty world for many years now, they are some of the most spoken about palettes, they are known for having beautiful packaging and great pigmentation with colours to suit every skin tone, however as the beauty world grows some drugstore brands are starting to compete with them - hence the W7 palettes which caught my eye by the similarity between the palettes, I have found two dupes for you, so if you want to save some pennies and compare them too, keep on reading!

Full Face Make-Up Tutorial | Contour & Smokey Eyes

Hello beauties,

Two make-up tutorials in two days?! Aren't you a lucky bunch. I have recently had lots of comments and messages from girls, asking for me to do a make-up look focusing on how to create my signature smokey eye-look and some 'how to' contour tips! So if that interests you then stay tuned for lot's of photo's and details on how to create this look.

Here is me baring all fresh face, without make-up! It's important for us to all feel happy and comfortable in our body / skin however, as a beauty obsessive I love experimenting with make-up and enhancing my skills, I like to use make-up to enhance my natural features rather than to cover them up - I think that goes for most of us, let me know your thoughts.

 

Minimalistic Make-Up Look & Lashes | Beauty Tutorial

Review & Haul: The BirchBox Shop

Hi everyone,

For today's post I am going to show you all what I have purchased recently using my Birch Box points. I have subscribed to BirchBox's monthly subscription service (search Review or BirchBox in the search bar of my blog to see what's inside my boxes) and as a bonus to being apart of this subscription service, you can review the products in each month's box and also refer your friends to earn points and money to spend in their online shop!

There are so many brands to choose from, ranging from make-up tools, cosmetics, hair care and skin care products to spend your money on. I had built up quite a lot of points and decided to treat myself with some new products. I just want to give some kind of idea about how amazing the BirchBox point scheme is - ask yourself, could you have purchased all of the make-up below with £11 of your own money?! I'm pretty sure you couldn't! and if you love trying out new make-up and brands, the whole BirchBox scheme is fantastic.

Drugstore Make-Up Tutorial | Beauty

                     Good evening gorgeous viewers,

For today's post I wanted to do a drugstore make-up tutorial so I could find out the new-in and best products on the market and featuring more affordable products into my posts as I know that I am a lover of brands which are quite pricey, but that's not to say that drugstore brands aren't killing the scene at the moment.

 

Beauty Haul

 

                                      Hello beauties, ♥

The sun is shining, and we haven't had a football match to go to this Saturday so my boyfriend & I had the perfect excuse to get in the car and travel to a local shopping centre. I needed to pick up some drugstore make-up items for a new make-up tutorial I have planned to get up this weekend, and also couldn't resist spending my morning and afternoon in the sunshine!

I posted on my Facebook page for your recommendations of a drugstore foundation, as my next post is going to be a drugstore make-up tutorial! I honestly have not brought a foundation from Boots or Superdrug in at least 2 years as I've been hooked on my MAC studio-fix fluid foundation.

If you'd like to be an active member of our page, please hit the 'like' button to show your interest! I should of remembered how busy it would be on a Saturday afternoon! The aisles were full of different brands, and the employee's restocking the shelves and beauty-lovers filling their baskets. I should of realised I'd be picking up quite a few items and grabbed one, but no between us we managed (only because I forgot!) - and I love to look at each product and each brand as I've noticed the cheaper, more readily available products are right up there with the trends of the expensive brands which makes me so happy!

Make-Up Tutorial | New-In Beauty

Happy Friday everyone, what are your plans for the weekend?
 
I had a half day today so finished at half 12, and managed to enjoy the sunshine, I popped into MAC and spent some time with one of their make-up artists learning more about the best way to style my brows and to discover new products.. I'll talk more about that in a moment.


I wanted to do another make-up tutorial for you all, and help out some of the girls who have private messaged me learn how to contour and highlight. Let's get started!

 

Review: MAC Cosmetics Lipstick Collection

 
Today I wanted to show you all an insight to my make-up collection and wanted to start with one of favourite brand which is MAC Cosmetics.

 

                            

I currently have 6 MAC lipsticks in my collection (slowly but surely growing!) in which I have only ever brought one! Some have been gifted to me, but the majority of these lipsticks I have been thankful enough to the BAC-2-MAC scheme to recieve these for free, with a trade in of 6 empty MAC products. I have a post which goes into the scheme if you'd like more information - as you may have been throwing away your finished products without getting your end of the deal.

   I have tried lots of different brands for lipsticks, and MAC has stood out as one of my faves. The lipsticks are scented Vanilla, which I really like, it may not please everyone, but when you open the lipstick you can smell the product, however this scent is not overpowering in any means. The lasting power is very good and MAC has a very wide colour range different finishes of lipsticks to tailor your needs. The stand when you go into a MAC counter is incredible - you can swatch the lipsticks and try them on too! (WARNING - you may be in there for a long time if you do this - I usually spend no less than half an hour in the store, and that's a good day!)

 

First Impressions: Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation

Happy Monday Everyone!

I hope you're having a good start to the week, what are your plans for the week?

Today I popped into Camp Hopson following my friend, Lisa telling me they were selling a set of Clinique Chubby Sticks for £20 unfortunately when I went in they had all sold out. So, I thought let's take advantage of the Clinique free 10 day sample of their Beyond Perfecting Foundation.

This foundation retails at £25 and has very good coverage as you can see from the photo's below, the benefits of this foundation is the fact that it is a foundation and concealer in one. This foundation gives a very natural overall finish which is very long lasting.

This foundation is also very moisturising and there is a wide range of colour shades to choose from - My shade was colour matched by one of the lovely counter girls and she matched me as shade 2, which I think is a good match for me. The foundation blended effortlessly and has provided a very full coverage - I completely agree with what it states.
 

 

February Favourites 2017

Well, another month in 2017 down! I cannot believe we are entering March tomorrow! I love the month of March as my birthday is on March 12th! - in 2 weeks. How scary?! I will finally be out of my teens and will be 20! (I feel so old! eek!) This month has been a good month, reflecting back Valentines Day was lovely my boyfriend & I went out for a romantic meal and I was given some beautiful roses. I took my Nephew out for to watch the Lego Batman Movie - which was amazing! and we had Pizza Hut for dinner, and their unlimited ice-cream factory! He has already planned our next cinema adventure day to watch the Power Rangers at the end of the month and I've still got to see Fifty Shades of Darker.

So here are my favourites for the month, What are yours?

Product Empties | Would I repurchase?

Hi everyone,

For today's post I wanted to share with you all the recent products I've tried and tested recently over the last few months and to give you a review on them and to know whether I'd repurchase them!

Recently I've rekindled my love with MAC and have gone through a fair few bottles of their Studio Fix Fluid foundation. This is medium to full coverage and lasts a long time on the skin, applies and gives a duey/glowy finish if applied with primer. Good value and product for the price! And as you can see from the photo I have got below I have quite a few empty MAC products and the best thing about that is a FREE lipstick - Have you got any recommendations of some more I can try?

Glam Make-Up Tutorial | Beauty

Hi girlies!

I thought it's about time I post another make-up tutorial. This time I wanted to incorporate a more glamorous look to include lashes. Some products are still the same (which prove I love them!) and some are new finds.. so come and follow along.

I have been using a new primer - which works so well and ensures my make-up stays on all day - this is by NYX. You only need to apply a pea sized amount evenly across the face to act as a base.
