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.

Sleek Eyes And Cheek Palette Review

Hello everyone, I'm sorry that I haven't made a post in quite a while and tbh I don't have any excuses! I just didn't know what to next write about. But I recently won a competition with Sleek and I won both their new Eyes and Cheek palettes. They actually retail for £10 each so I'm so happy that I won them! I have been using them so I thought why not make a review post on them? I haven't yet done a review post on my blog so here goes! I'll include a few photos of the palette itself and swatches on my arm. They're called 'Dancing Till Dusk' and 'See You At Midnight' so I hope you enjoy! :)





So this is the palette Dancing Till Dusk! This palette is SO pretty! I think it's my favourite from the two. The coral coloured blush is the blush in the shade Sahara which you can buy separately! It's a matte so it's great. The other blush is a soft pink which has glitters in it which is really cute and gives a shimmer to your cheeks making you look extra good! The 4 shadows all come from the Au Naturel palette, the colours are quite similar, with the velvety browns and the pale shades which are great for a base, these shadows would be so good to create a smokey eye! My favourite shadow is the glittery pale one I think it's SO pretty, the photo really doesn't do the colours justice, sorry! It comes up a gold in person. I would definitely say these are VERY pigmented. It also comes with 2 little brushes, a shadow brush and a blush brush.





So this is the other palette in 'See You At Midnight'. Again, isn't this palette just SO pretty aswell?! I would say this palette is definitely one for you girls who love a bit of smokey eye. These colours are very pigmented so you don't need much on your brush at all tbh. The beautiful eyeshadows come from the Romance I-Divine Palette, they're deep purples and blues which are so pretty on any skin tone. The darker blush is in the blush Pomegranate which again, you can buy separately. The other blush is a dusky rose. My favourite shadow is probably the golden shimmery one yet again like the other palette, I can't get enough of these colours lately!

These palettes are actually quite small so very handy if you're travelling especially because it's a 2 in 1 product, I would definitely recommend these products, so go check them out!

I hope you enjoyed reading this post, and I will be doing more reviews on products soon :) Thanks for reading! (If you got to here) :D
