Zoeva Cocoa Blend Palette | Swatches | Reviews


I have had this palette in my collection for a long time - well since around September last year, but for some reason I hadn't reach for it, so when I rediscovered it after cleaning out my makeup collection I decided to give it ago...and omg! I wish that I had found and used this palette sooner I would even go as far as saying I absolutely love it! so If you want to see my review of this product and swatches carry on reading.

Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara review | Benefit Roller lash dupe or not?




I am maybe a bit late on this makeup product as I have heard so many people rave about this mascara, but I have had so many mascaras open recently that I haven't had chance to try anything new, also I am normally the sort of girl that sticks to the same makeup products if I fall in love with them which is what happened with the benefit roller lash, until it ran out recently - I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to pick up the maybelline lash sensational mascara from my local boots, as I have heard so many people comparing it to benefits roller lash, so if you are interested in my review of this mascara carry on reading.

Urban Decay | Naked on the run palette | swatches | review

I received this palette as a gift for Christmas which I swacthed on the day at thought it was a bit meh! However when cleaning out my makeup collection last month I rediscovered this palette and swatched it again and was surprised that I hadn't used it yet, as all the eyeshadow shades looked absolutely gorgeous and I cant believe I never used it sooner.

Fashionista Lipsticks | Swatches | First Impression | review | Fragrance Direct



Recently I have discovered that my most popular blog posts are swatch and review ones, and you all know me by now and know that I am a lipstick junkie and cant start buying lipsticks so why not do another lipstick swatch and review. Today's lipsticks are the fashionista lipsticks which I bought from Fragrance Direct.

Eyes on MAC burgundy times 9 palette swatches and review

 I have been eyeing up the eyes on mac palette now for a few weeks now, and on my last shopping trip I decided to buy the burgundy times nine palette even though I am currently on a spending ban I am hoping to buy the purple and amber times nine too (hands over eyes emoji). Anyway back to the palette, it contains nine individual eyeshadow pans with a mixture or matte and shimmer shades, however these eyeshadow are smaller than the normal mac eyeshadow pans but that is reflected in the price which I believe are very reasonable.

Firstly the little makeup bag that the goodies arrived in is super cute and so spring appropriate, It is a bright yellow colour with flags and has lipsticks and mascaras scattered around.

Morphe brushes Jaclyn Hill favourites palette swatches and first impression / review

Finally this beauty is here and I have wanted this palette for so long but I missed the last restock and the palette was out of stock forever, however I managed to get this palette on ebay and I was so chuffed. The colours are all so beautiful and after swatching this palette the pigmentation is great as well, I was worried after spending so much on this palette encase it wasn't that great because the main reason I bought this palette was because the amazing Jaclyn hill teamed up with morphe brushes and create this palette and I love her videos so much. I feel that if I was able to get this palette from the Morphe brushes website then I would have been able to say that the eyeshadow were of great quality for the price however I think that I may have overpaid for this eyeshadow palette, but I don't really mind because this palette has easily became one of my favourites palettes and I am finding myself using this nearly everyday so it was defiantly worth every penny I paid. The palette includes 28 shades and has both matte and shimmery shades, all the shades are creamy and apply to the lid so nicely with very minimal fall out, here are swatches of all the eyeshadow so that you can see the colour and pigmentation better.

Makeup revolution Mermaids forever palette swatches, review and demo

All over my instagram feed I have been seeing loads of pictures of the Makeup revolution mermaid forever palette And I knew that I needed to get my hands on this palette, as it looked amazing from the pictures I had seen and makeup revolution haven't disappointed me yet I love all of their products I own, Ok other than the eyeshadow primer which I wasn't too keen on but this could have been because I have really oily eyelids. Anyway back to the palette, it has 32 shades ranging from light beige shades to pinks to dark blues and browns, meaning that you can use this palette to create both day and night looks also this palette has a huge mirror which is so handy and this palette retails for only £8. Another thing that I love about this palette is that all the different shades have names and none of my other makeup revolutions palette have names, however I would have preferred the names to be printed on the palette, this is only because I lose things really easy.

Mac wash and dry collection - swatches and first impression/review (steam heat, tumble dry, morange, hipiness and freshen up)


Hello beauties how are you all doing today, I was suppose to publish this post ages ago but completely forgot about it, but its better late then never. My first thought when I saw the sneak peaks of this item was that I needed everything from this collection I was totally in love with the packaging, it was so bright and colourful and just reminded me on summer. However when I went to the store to pick this collection up I was quite disappointed as the items wasn't what I was expecting.  And I wasn't prepared to buy everything from the collection such as the bronzing powders, eyeshadow palettes and one of the blushes, this was because the eyeshadow palettes didn't look that great swatches and I know that they wouldn't get used as much as other trios I own and the bronzing powders and blush wouldn't of shown up on my skin which I was so upset about (oh and I am not a lip gloss person). Anyway I am going to stop being negative and shows you all the beauties I pick up from this collection.

Makeup revolution iconic pro lipsticks - swatches and review

hello beauties I hope that you are all doing well, If you didn't already know I have been loving the brand makeup revolution lately and you all know that I am lipstick lover but I have never tried makeup revolution lipsticks, so I decided to buy their newest lipstick collection called the Iconic pro lipsticks. The first thing that attracted me to the lipsticks was the packaging, as it very much reminded me of the mac packaging which I love, I feel that it looks so sleek however makeup revolution have go one step better by putting the lipstick colour at the bottom of the lipsticks, as this means that I haven't got to take ages pulling out different lipsticks to find the colour that I want. Another thing that attracted me was the price, can you believe that these lipsticks retail for only £2.50 that is unbelievable, and there are 20 shades to choose from with a few matte shades, anyways I am going to stop rambling and show you swatches of the lipsticks on my lips and also a little first impression/ review of what I think about these lipsticks.

Makeup Academy Lipsticks MUA swatches and review

Hello beauty lovers I hope you are all doing well, I thought I would share with you my most recent purchase from the Makeup Academy website. Just after Christmas I went on the website just to have a look, then I notice that they were having a sale, so I said to myself that I would try a few things because I hear so many good things about this brand, and that a lot of the lipsticks are dupes for MAC, but I ended up going a bit over the top and spending £40, the good thing about this was that i received free delivery so I cant complain there lol.

My First Gerard Cosmetics Order swatches and reviews

PictureHello all you beauty lovers I hope you are all doing well, today's blog is about my first Gerard Cosmetics order and whether I thought it was worth the hype, if you didn't already know my favorite makeup product is lip products, I am literally obsessed with lipsticks and have enough to last me a lifetime (but for some reason i keep buying more lol). however a few weeks ago i was scrolling down Depop (online app which is like eBay) and i saw that someone had listed a coupon code for Gerard cosmetics. I have always wanted to try their lip products after hearing some many youtubers rave on about how amazing their products are such as shaaanxo and Jacklyn hill, so i decided to make the plunge and order from them. The coupon code that i was given was "thankyou" which was 50% off all item in your cart, after adding two lipstick to my cart i decided that was enough as i didn't want to have to pay a custom charge as Gerard cosmetics in based within the US. And then to my surprise when i whet to pay for my lipsticks i also received free shipping and handling as it was new years (yay). I couldn't believe it my order came to $19 dollars including shipping which converted to roughly 12.88. so lipstick obsessed me order two more lipsticks.

Makeup Academy (MUA) Blushers swatches and reviews

Hello beauty lovers I hope that you are all doing well, today's blog post is going to be about a recent purchase that I made on the MUA website. I order all 6 of the MUA blushes, as both blushers and lipsticks are my favorite products, and the prices of the MUA ones are so cheap I decided to get the whole range, to see what I thought about them and to see if they were worth the £1 lol.
