Younique Mascara

A little while ago I was contacted by a lovely lady named Manel Salah asking if I would like to try out a product and review it on my blog, so of course I said yes! The product I am reviewing is the Younique mascara, I'm excited to tell you my thoughts on it.
*I was sent this product for free* I cannot thank her enough!
Please visit her site here: www.youniqueforyoubymanel.com

When my package arrived I was so excited I ripped open the packaging it was in! The product comes in a gorgeous case very similar to a glasses case. Inside it comes with two products which I will explain further down the blog post. A little photo was also attached inside showing the mascara on the lashes. The products are securely in the case.


There is actually two wands. One is a transplanting gel and the other is natural fibers. How it works is you apply a coat of the transplanting gel to your lashes, it's best to do one eye at a time. Then straight after with the natural fibers apply it just like a normal mascara, the small natural fibers will stick to the transplanting gel making it look like you have lots of long separated lashes.

I think this mascara is absolutely great. I guess the only downside to this is that you have to keep swapping from wand to wand depending on how many layers you want.

On my left eye I used my normal mascara which is the Collection No Clumps and on my right eye I used Younique. I wanted to compare length, so I did this! You can definately tell which mascara is which.



Overall, I really think this product is great. When I am wearing this mascara, it honestly looks like I am wearing false lashes, I thought I had already got naturally long lashes, until I used this beast of a product. I would totally recommended.

Would You Rather - Beauty Edition

Hi everyone! Before I say anything else, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I'm 8 days late I know lol but oh well! It's also my 17th birthday tomorrow yay! January 9th :)

It's been a while since I last did a tag post so I thought I'd do one, I looked through some and found this one which I liked, enjoy lol :)



1.) Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lipglosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows? 

I'd rather loose all my palettes and eyeshadows because I use the other 4 ALL the time!
2.) Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
I'd rather chop it all off because it'd grow back right? And my hair is in such a bad condition lol!
3.) Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
Coral! It suits my hair colour much better, but I do also love pink cheeks.
4.) If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
Make up defo, I like clothes but make up interests me more. I can always just live in my black leggings hahaha!
5.) Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?
Eyeliner as lipstick because you can get coloured eyeliners so that's not bad really is it.
6.) Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?
MAC, I've never been to Sephora, I'm from the UK.
7.) Would you rather only use one eyeshadow color or one lip color for the rest of your life?
I'd rather use one eyeshadow colour because you can go for a neutral and basically use any lip colour :)
8.) Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?
Summer clothes in winter because you can always put more layers on, and I'd hate to wear winter clothes in Summer because I absolutely cannot cope with being too warm ugh!!
9.) Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year round?
Bright! I'm more of a bright nailed girl than dark, love my pinks! ;)
10.) Would you rather give up your favorite lip product or your favorite eye product?
Hmm this is pretty hard but I'd have to go with lip because I cannot live without my favorite mascara. :( BUT, I love lipsticks ughhh;(
11.) Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail or a messy bun?
Pony tail because I look pretty weird with my hair up in a bun lol.
12.) Would your rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lipgloss?
Never use lipgloss, lipgloss annoys me tbh and I cannot leave the house without painted nails, no joke, seriously..
13.) Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all or sharpie them in everyday?
Probably no eyebrows... nobody wants sharpie brows. This is so hard though.14.) Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish?
Nail polish as much as I love it, I love make up more. I feel like I can experiment more with make up. :)

October Favourites

Hello everyone, hope you're well! :) 

Today I've got my October favourites for you! I've been loving a few products throughout October so I thought I'd share with you, I'd definitely recommend all of the products I talk about because they're so good and worth the money. October is one of my favourite months because it's autumn and that's my favourite month. I love everything about it! :) 



Urban Decay Naked 3 
I'm gonna start with my NAKED 3 palette, omg this palette is literally a dream! I know that it's got more pinky shades than the other 2 but I still love to use it during these autumn months, it's my absolute fav palette and the pigmentation is AMAZING! I've used it every single day i've worn make up and I generally can't explain how much I love it! 

Yankee Candle Tealight French Vanilla
I've never really been a big candle lover much before but my mum actually gave me these because I got a new lantern which burns tealights, so I thought I'd try these out and they smell luscious!! I don't really know the difference between vanilla and french vanilla but ok lol? I am defo gonna get some more candles from the Yankee range!

Rimmel Kate Moss 107 Lipstick
 Okay I have seriously wanted this lipstick for AGES! When I got it I was so happy, it's a really dark berry red and perfect for the autumn/winter season. I wasn't sure if it would suit my pale skin but it's actually really flattering. I've seen that Zoella wears this aswell and she rocks it so well! This is defo my go to lipstick atm!!

Barry M Berry Cosmo Nail Polish
I picked this up in Superdrug along with some other colours. This colour is great for the autumn, it's a really dark subtle purple and it actually looks good on both short or long nails! It also looks amazing with a glitter polish over the top. I would defo recommend this polish if you're looking for a dark purple. For me personally, it started to chip after about 4-5 days which is pretty good!!

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water
One word to describe this product is incredible!! This takes off ANY make up like a dream! They're Real mascara by Benefit is so hard to get off but with this it's so much easier, it also doesn't sting my eyes at all! I saw a lot of people rave about this product so I thought i'd try it out and I wasn't disappointed. I would also defo recommend this product aswell!

Thank you for reading my post ( if you got to this point) :)
