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 :)

Rimmel Lasting Finish 25 Hour Foundation

Hi beauties! :)

So i thought it was time after 2 months of wearing this foundation nearly everyday to finally write a review! i picked this foundation up from my local boots for £5.99 on offer, the price instantly won me over, £5.99 for a foundation is pretty good in my opinion.

This foundation claims it lasts up to 25 hours, i don't stay up that long but while i have it on i have noticed it does not budge, i sometimes get shiny in my T zone, but that's expected as my T zone gets VERY oily even with my mac studio sculpt foundation. 

I brought this in the shade 100 Ivory and i have to say it matches my skin perfectly and requires very little blending to get an even color,this foundation would be great for beginners as you don't need to use a brush to get an even tone. The coverage of this foundation is a medium coverage as its not too sheer but also not full coverage as your still going to need some concealer :)

i would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs a medium coverage foundation for everyday use, as its light and does not need topping up very often. its also pretty great for the price!

BC Classic Eyeshadows Palette Review

Ah the world of eyeshadows! 

Today im going to be reviewing a palette i picked up from my local bargain shop,i had never heard of this brand but my impressions so far are GREAT :D yay cheap makeup! this palette cost me around £2.59 and has a total of 8 everyday eyeshadows ranging from matte browns to subtle blues :D

The consistency of these shadows are super creamy! i love them, there really easy to blend and im sure you could achieve a smokey eye look with some of the beautiful blues! iv been really getting my wear out of these shadows as they have made their selves home in my everyday makeup bag,woot :) 

im sorry about the crappy photo, my camera don't do these colors justice, considering the price, i think these eyeshadows are great for anyone who is looking for a range of eyeshadows they can use for starting out, as you get a mix of all the colors you could possibly want!

Seventeen 16 Hour Wear Gel Eyeliner Review

 Ah the joys of eyeliner!            

Eyeliner is key in my everyday makeup routine as i have quite large glasses, so my eyes look like peas, no joke. so i like to 'outline' the lid a little so it appears i have eyes. i have been doing this for years and i'm very picky on what eyeliner tickles my fancy, and which make me run away in fear. 

This eyeliner applied to my eyelids like butter. Being a gel eyeliner it gives a more defined look,however that's what i LOVE in an eyeliner, unless i'm looking for a more smokey kind of eye then i would rather use a kohl. The wear on this product states it can last up to 16 hours, i tried to put this to the test as great as i could, however i don't usually wear my makeup for 16 hours, Bummer i know :( but for the 5-6 hours this product was on my eyelids it pretty much stayed place, only smudging on the edges a little dab. the color had faded from a very BAM IN YOUR FACE OMG BLACK EYELINER black, to a more subtle and a little dulled down, considering this product states it stays for 16 hours, i have doubts it would look great at the end of the day. 

also if your considering buying this as your first eyeliner, i would not  recommend this if you don't have the right brushes, as the brush that comes with the eyeliner is just sad your better of buying a gel such as the MUA gel eyeliner that comes with a GREAT mini brush that's attached to the pot.
