Maybelline Colour Tattoos Review

Hey! Long time no blog post, yet again, sorry! BUT IT'S NEARLY CHRISTMAS HOORAY! I'm so excited for Christmas it's always such a fun time of the year, are you guys looking forward to it? What are you hoping for this year? :)

I'm going to doing a review on some of my favorite make up products ever, which are the Maybelline Colour Tattoos in 'One and On Bronze' and 'Pink Gold', these are the only two I have but I absolutely LOVE these colours so much and I will defo be getting more colours!

LEFT: Pink Gold
RIGHT; On And On Bronze

Okay! These are basically cream eyeshadows by Maybelline, which I absolutely love so much and use all the time! They're very creamy which makes them easy to apply and easy to blend if you don't want the colour as harsh, because the colours are amazingly pigmented I can't believe it! One little sweep on the lid and it's totally opaque which is brilliant to say it's a drugstore product. The little pot holds so much product it's unreal because you don't need much so they will last for SO LONG! I honestly don't favour one over the other because I love them both so much. I literally get one little bit on my finger and it can cover my whole lid! I either just have this on my lid or sometimes I also put another colour eyeshadow into the crease to define the eye look. I think these would be great for people who are maybe not as confident with normal eyeshadows because these are so easy to apply! These retail for £4.99 each which I think is very reasonable for the amount you get in a little pot, I would definitely recommend these and will also be buying more colours!

I hope you've enjoyed reading this post and I hope you all have a great Christmas and New Year!

November Favourites

Hello everyone! So it's currently the 6th of December and I'm only just doing my November favourites, sorry! Here are my favourites below in the photo :)

So my first favourite is the L'oreal True Match foundation, mine is in the shade rose ivory which i believe is the palest shade? Anyways, this is such a great foundation! So many people have raved about this foundation on blogs and youtube so I thought I'd pick it up and give it a go. I'm really impressed with this, it's a medium coverage so you can build it up for a full coverage or go lighter for a more natural coverage, it's a bit runny though which makes it great so it's easy to blend! It retails for £9.99, obviously you can get cheaper drugstore foundations but I definitely think it's worth the price of it. They have SO many different shades so I think there would be a shade for every skin colour/type! Overall, I've really loved this foundation and when I run out, I plan to get another one. :)

Next is my MUA eyebrow pencil in the shade blonde, this was only £1! As if!? For that much I had to buy it and I've been loving it! It's the perfect shade for me and matches my hair so well. It's really soft for a pencil so it doesn't give harsh lines and I hardly have to press down for the product to work. I think MUA is a very underrated brand and I'd definitely buy this pencil again.

Okay next is LUSH! I just want to say how much I love Lush it's honestly one of my fave things ever. So when I saw that this limited edition lip scrub was out I had to get it! I haven't been let down! It smells and tastes like cola bottles which is amazing because who doesn't like cola bottles? This product always leaves my lips feeling super soft, I use it everyday mainly before I go to bed. It is a cute tiny pot but it lasts for ages because you only need to use the smallest bit! I'm so sad that this is limited edition just for Christmas time though!

My Bourjois blush has always been my absolutely fave but this month I really have genuinely loved it. During Autumn/Winter I don't like to go overboard with blush and contouring but I think this colour is perfect for this time of year. It's in the shade Rose Ambre which to me is a more coral shade than pink which I personally prefer. It gives such a pretty glow and colour to the cheeks. It's also really small which is great for travelling. 

My last favourites are 3 Barry M Gelly Nail Polishes in the shades from left to right(in the photo), Plum, Watermelon and Blackberry. I think these shades are great for this time of the year. I actually won these from Barry M in a competition. The Gelly ones are my fave because the give such a nice shine to your nails because sometimes I feel like dark colours look awful on my nails but the more shine it has the better it looks.

I hope that you enjoyed this post :)

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
