Avon True Colour FIRST IMPRESSIONS

OMG WHAAAAT first review of the lovely month of June! or you could call this a first impressions? pick your fancy and put it in your pocket! SO onto the actual producty stuff i brought this a couple of weeks ago from my avon rep but kinda forgot about it in the back of my bag (ooh naughty) and found it again a few days ago when i decided to clean the pit of doom. i have no idea how much this was, i imagine it was around £7-8 but im not too sure. 

I Brought the colour palette 'Healthy Glow' and when i first swatched the eyeshadows the white/cream colour came through with alot more gold flecks than i first imagined. i was not disappointed i just didn't really expect this, however it is a very pretty colour. The other colour is more of a baked brown with also flecks of gold as an undertone. 


when i first tried the shadows the white was alot more pigmented than the brown, however i feel if you used these colours together you could get a very light, natural smokey eye. the texture is soft and quite fluffy like my other avon eyeshadows, anything other than this is really not expected from avon as there quality is very good for the price you pay. 


As you can see from the swatches the colours are very beautiful but i feel you could get colours the same from many other brands and very different prices. however if your an avon junkie like me i would definitely purchase this item just as it could be a very good everyday staple. 

If you already own this or are planning on trying it make sure to tell me in the comments ;3 

Have a fantastic day! Dottie xox

Collection Super Size Mascara Review!

Hello Beauties!

So today's review is going to be on something i have fallen in love with from the very first application, i picked up this mascara about a month ago as i had run out of my much loved Avon super shocked mascara. i do believe this mascara cost me about £2.99 from boots which is SUPER cheap compared to some hyped L'Oreal ones. 

One coat of mascara! :)
As you can tell from the photo above, it did add length but not as much volume, i did not expect there to be much volume as when a brand says its specially for lengthening, that's pretty much all its going to do. but personally i love this mascara considering its only £2.99 you cannot really go wrong.
Usually this stays on all day with no fallout and without having to re apply. 


The brush of this mascara is your basic applicator, but i did notice compared to other cheap brands it is considerably thicker and bigger in size. the mascara formula itself is yet to dry out and i have had this for about a month and a little bit, this gives me faith in collections mascaras and im definitely going to pick up more on my next trip to boots :)
