#BEAUTY | The top 3 eyeshadow palettes for bright looks

  So you're looking to create a bright az look, a kind of out of this world . popping #eotd? Then you need these 3 palettes. It isn't just the colours that are the reason but the intense creamy pigments and they way it goes smoothly on the skin.  Juvias Place Magic Palette Since I bought this beauty all I have wanted to do is use it in every makeup look, take endless photos of it and just touch it...aha yes it is really THAT good, beats me why I only have this palette and not any others from Juvias Place?! I think I may have done a separate post on this before and explained my love for it then!  Morphe 35B  This palette is a mix of shimmer and mattes, the shimmers are super creamy and similar to those of the juvias palette in texture. The mattes are equally as pigmented but just a more powder texture, but it doesn't take away from the pigment. This one pretty much has all the colours you need and is my go to palette colour. It is also a very de...

#BEAUTY | Maybelline Blush Kit + Matte Maker

Finding the right blush can be quite a task, its the finishing touch to all makeup looks and should not be overlooked or forgotten. I feel it can do so much to a face. It gives the perfect flush of colour to a tan-less, needs-a-holiday badly, where-the-hell-is-summer face. I've realised though, its not that simple to pick a colour as there is so many blushes to pick from, singles to palettes or even creamy blushes. I found my balance between a peachy orange and a subtle glow of pink, and from this palette I use the peachy tone with the tiniest of sprinkles of the pink. Purple is not for me personally but I can still use it as an eyeshadow. I normally use my Nip + Fab blush palette as the tones are my cup of tea, and I believe it will be my go to whilst I try new ones in between. The Maybelline blush kit also comes with a highlighter of which is pigmented in its own right, but can be a tad more glittery if you apply too much, that's me comparing it to t...

#OOTD | Seeing red with this Nasty Gal jumpsuit

Long time, no speak. Isn't that how every conversation starts once you're an adult? So funny how as a teen you are so oblivious to the fact of what life is and want to grow up in a hurry! I have been MIA on my blog and I must admit it has been bothering me, I have felt uninspired of recent and don't want to blog for the sake of it. Not only do I blame the weather (thanks for the dry skin!) but also side projects, as well as life events. I'm currently in the midst of setting something up, of which I don't want to be more specific yet as its in its early stages but I do hope once it gets going I have all your support :) #girlboss  my focus is currently on that, but never far away from blogging, makeup, creating, youtube and everything in between.  I shall be back with a bad gal bang, seeing as I am testing out the benefit newbie I thought that was quite fitting mwahha I also have some new makeup and skincare of which I am testing out before I give a review ...

#BEAUTY | Gold halo eye using Essence Cosmetics

Essence Cosmetics isn't a very well known brand, at least to me it isn't. I have memories of seeing it in Wilkinson's stores but not anywhere else. I was also of the opinion that the brand wasn't of great quality...once again stereotyping and a lesson of why we shouldn't stereotype! I got sent these samples from a PR company and felt really inspired to use the star product for me, the gold metal shock eyeshadow. oh how pigmented is thee? for a product that retails at £3.50! they come in 4 colour shades I believe, and are of a cream texture with the applicator which I guess I would use if I was applying it on my full lid but as I was just creating a halo eye I used a smaller brush for precision. It dried in just the right amount of time so it didn't transfer on my upper lid area :) The only other product I used for this look was this highlighter. I mean I thought the rainbow highlighter craze had been and gone but its still around brighte...

#BEAUTY | Makeup Revolution Flawless 4 eyeshadows + NEW concealer

In my bid to do a full face of affordable and decent makeup, I went on a shopping trip to gather my items....and of course to grab that concealer the whole beauty world is talking about (or so it seems) so my trip was a disappointing one as the store I went to was near enough empty of makeup revolution :( so I bought this flawless 4 eyeshadow kit and concealer and intend to buy other bits like foundation, brow and lip products etc somewhere else. For the time being though I wanted to share my thoughts on this palette. The colours are stunning, I'm actually so happy at how high street brands are really good quality for the money, I believe this palette was £6. I was drawn to the pinks and reds and of course the shimmer shades, both being really pigmented. There is a bit of fallout but mostly in the darker colours. There is a good range of mattes and shimmers and saying that also a good range of crease colours and lid colours. The concealer which is being co...
