My friends thought I'd been attacked :O

Earlier in the evening I felt the urge to create some kind of make up look but I wanted to create something different to what I usually do. Most of my make-up collection consists of pretty things but lately I've been wanting to create gore / Halloween looks.....maybe that's because Halloween is coming up or my HUGE obsession with Violence and Gore....Anyway this is what I finished with. 


All created with pretty much normal cosmetics.

Loving Lately



Collection Lipstick in Pink Shock: This lipstick is part of Collections Lasting Colour range and It's the first lipstick I have ever tried by Collection. I was casually browsing Superdrug one day on the hunt to find a bright, opaque, long lasting lipstick and I came across this beauty. I absolutely love this shade because it's a subtle bright pink and what I would call a statement lipstick. I've bought pink lipsticks in the past and hated them because they just look tarty and yucky. It has a smooth application and feels moisturising on the lips. I was surprised at the lasting time because the lipstick was under £4.00 and didn't expect it to last as well as it does. I worse this lipstick out for a meal and I didn't need to re-apply after the meal which was very unexpected. I'm going to try other shades from collection because this one has won me over.




















Rimmel Kate Moss Matte Lipstick in shade 101: This lipstick is one of my most worn lipsticks because it's the perfect everyday shade for me. It's a subtle bubblegum pink shade and goes well with any outfit. It's easy to apply and very convenient if I'm in a rush to get ready. The consistency is soft and creamy leaving a lovely matte finish. Because the lipstick is matte is has a decent lasting time but it makes my lips the tiniest bit dry but nothing extreme or I won't be wearing it everyday. Revlon have a lipstick very similar to this one called Pink Pout but it has purple undertones to it. I have already purchased another shade from the Kate Moss collection which I will do a review on very soon.























Lime Crime Lipstick Airborn Unicron: I adore Lime Crime and I adore this lipstick, the packaging is super cute with bright purple packaging and a sparkly holographic unicorn design. The lipstick is an opaque medium violet and definitely a statement shade. It’s super creamy and packed full of pigment that lasts all day. It doesn’t make my lips feel dry nor does it settle in lip lines or bleed. It’s just a beautiful lipstick that I enjoy wearing. Lime Crime have so many amazing shades I have no idea which to choose next.

























Hope you enjoyed today's post; do you wear any of these shades?

Lime Crime Eye Shadow Helper




Lime Crime's Eye Shadow Helper now comes in a squeezable tube rather that the little blue pot. I never had the chance to try the product when it was in the pot packaging, but I have had the chance to try the product in the updated squeezable tube. First of all I really like the squeezable tube packaging because it’s a lot easier to use. I'm guessing using the little pot would be a bit messier as I would probably end up with the product up my nails. The first time I used it is was very hard to get out of the tube, I had to squeeze pretty hard, but once I used it a few times it became a lot easier to get from out of the tube. As with all Lime Crime packaging it never fails to impress me as their packaging and products always look fun and magical. The product itself is very smooth and lightweight and blends into the skin beautifully. The product is a beige colour but once blended into the skin it becomes transparent, giving the perfect canvas for eye make-up. It’s so amazing because it makes eye make-up ever brighter making your eyes really pop, its crease proof, water proof, touch proof and keeps your eye make-up stay beautiful all day long. Great if you have oily eyelids or want to make shadow brighter, very soft and creamy......


I love this product and I will buy it again!

Suedeberry Velvetines by Lime Crime







I'm a huge fan of bright red lipstick, its my statement shade, and most loved colour from my family of lip products. I came across this beautiful lipstick on the Lime Crime website and I knew I had to try this!  














First of all I rave about Lime Crime's packaging it never fails to impress me, its always so quirky and unique. The lipstick comes a cute box, which I can't bring myself to throw away because it's so pretty. The product comes in a classic lip gloss package with, a lip gloss applicator. The lip gloss applicator is a little tricky to use at first, I admit it took me a while of practicing before I was comfortable applying it. Be warned if you make a mistake its a nightmare to correct, as this lipstick is made to stay. The staying power of this lipstick is like no other I have used before, it stays in place all day and I've never had to touch up. Once applied the consistency is very glossy and you only need to apply a little, in a couple of seconds the product dries to a very nice matte finish, which I adore. This lipstick is so comfortable I forget I'm even wearing any, its also kiss proof it will not budge or stain your boyfriends face. 


I'm wearing this product here 

All in all I simply love this lipstick, its a lovely matte shade, with outstanding staying power, waterproof, vegan and cruelty free. I recommend this to lovers of bright red matte lipsticks and lovers of darker shades of reds, as their is another shade called Red Velvet available. 

It would be amazing if Lime Crime brought out other shades of this lipstick, what do you think?

China Doll Palette by Limecrime

Palettes arrive encased in a deluxe purple tin. Collection of 5 pressed eyeshadows inspired by the exotic beauty of China. Superior coverage, creamy texture, and superb blendability. 

All of the palettes incase professional-quality eye shadow arranged by themes. Each palette features 5 coordinated shades that work flawlessly together as well as on their own. Cashmere formula is loaded to the brim with pigment & offers luxurious payoff and superb blendability.


Lime Crime never disappoint me when it comes to packaging their products, all of the products I own are really eye catching and very cute with the unicorn logo and pretty pinks and purples. The shadows come in a beautiful sturdy purple tin, with pretty gold detailing and the Lime Crime logo on the middle of the lid. The tin is reusable once you have used up the shadows. £23.95 5x1.3g


On the back of of the tin are the names of the shades in the palette. I really like this idea because Its easy to find the palette/colour your looking for without having to look through them all. 


I really like the pattern on the shadows but as you can see with use, the pattern wears off. 

Fly Dragon Fly (matte) - warm fiery red shade
Parasol (matte) - bright sky blue shade, my overal favorite
Goldfish (metallic) - yellow, gold shade
Jade-o-Jade (matte) - teal green shade
Lotus Noir (matte) - blackest black


The quality and pigmentation of these shadows are out of this world fantastic! They are soft, highly pigmented and easy to blend. I've been looking for a jet matte black for quite sometime and I'm happy to say I've finally found one. Since I've owned this palette I haven't picked up a black pencil eyeliner because I like to use the black shade as an eyeliner, because its super bold and doesn't smudge, but it does last all day, same as all the other shades. These palettes are also vegan and cruelty free!!

Overall I can't praise Lime Crime enough, I absolutely love this palette, all the colours are beautiful and perfect for the kinds of make up looks I do.
