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?

Loving Lately


The heat is here and it’s been time to tone down my make-up. I recently bought L’Oreal’s True Match Foundation in Rose Ivory because it was the first foundation I ever used, so I was curious to see what I thought of it seven years later. In all honestly I was a little disappointed but I’ve put it to good use by using it on my legs to mask out little imperfections and it works brilliantly. I received Sleeks Pout Paints in 161 Minx & 154 Mauve Over in this month’s Glossybox and I’ve been wearing them ever since. The shades are perfect summer colours for me, a peachy nude shade and a hot purple/pink shade, they are made to be mixed but I like to be bold. They are best to be applied with a lip brush and they give a glossy full coverage lip. Lasting time is pretty good but nothing to rave about as the colour wears off in the inner part of the lips, leaving a bold outline. Even so I still love these lip paints and I really want to try other shades. Illamasqua Concealer 115 My all round favourite concealer right now, because it’s so smooth and creamy and covers up all my blemishes as well as hiding dark circles. The only niggle I have is it chips the nail polish on my thumb nail because of how the compact opens. Avons Eye Shadow Primer Wow I love this stuff and I think this is a dupe for Lime Crime Eye Shadow Helper, it has the same consistency and does exactly the same thing in exactly the same way but a lot cheaper. Sadly Avon is going to discontinue it!! Avons SuperShock Gel Eyeliner in Flash is a really pretty pearl/pink eyeliner that I’ve been using in the inner corners of my eye, giving a wide awake look that I just love. Its long lasting but Avon are also discontinuing this too, so I’m not going to ramble about it.


What have you been loving this summer?

Loving Lately




















Mua is such an amazing brand, I can't help but try their products. Today I'm doing a post about three of my favourite Mua products.

Bronzer shade 3: Mua have three shades to choose from and they are £1.00 each! !I really like this bronzer because it isn't too orange / dark for my very pale skin tone. I have to be so careful when it comes to bronzers because some of them can make me look kind of dirty looking, if I apply to much. But this one does the job perfectly, and I don't have to be frightened of over loading my brush. It gives natural looking cheekbones in an instant.

Blusher shade 1: Mua have five shades to choose from but they have brought out new shades so there is a total of eleven blushers to choose from, all for £1.00 each!! These blushes are in my top five because of the colour payoff and lasting time.

Undress Your Skin Highlight Powder: This is a amazing product for the price of £3.00, Its not the best highlight I've used but I've been using it a lot lately. It gives a lovely healthy glow to your face. Great to be used on the brow bone, down the centre of the nose, cupids bow, tops of cheekbones.

I bought my Mua products  from Superdrug but you can also by them from the offical Mua website
