Brushes..

Ever since i started getting into make-up i always had a love for the product and not tools and accessories which is bad i know.Now i know more about which brushes i should be using for each product. I then discovered Real Techniques which is the make up brush range by Samantha Chapman.
( Expert Face brush and Powder Brush)
 
 
I only got 2 to start with and i can honestly say that they are the best brushes ive used. They are also very resonably priced at around £10.99 per brush depending on which one you get. The brushes with a yellow centre are for your face, purple ones are for your eyes and the pink ones are to finish your makeup off. They are great for all skin types would recommend them to anyone. I picked these up from my local Superdrug store but you can also get them from Boots or on the website. You can also follow Sam on Twitter or on You Tube where she shows you tutorials on how to use them.http://realtechniques.com/shop-collection.
 
 see you soon xox:)

Model That...

As a girl i have a love for all things beauty include nail varnish and my collection is forever growing much to the annoyance of my mother who say i have to many, can a girl have too many nail varnishes?
I have a couple of brands that i really like including Models Own, i only really discovered them in December when i went to the Clothes Show which is held in Birmingham every year. At the moment i only have 4 but it wont be long until i get some more.

(L-R, Indian Ocean, Hedkanist, Beth's Blue & Purple Haze)


My favourite of the ones i have is Purple haze as purple is my favourite colour. With the Glitter based ones you have to make sure that you apply a good base coat underneath otherwise i will be a nightmare to try and get off.




They have a huge range of different colours which iam trying to try out. All of them are £5 from Superdrug or boots or you can visit their website HERE. :)

 See you soon xox

Perfume Collection.

So every girl loves smelling nice and ive got a few perfumes in my little collection that am always using. I like to change it up day to day depending on how iam feeling.

The first perfume i got last year is Calvin Klein Summer, its a really fruity sweet smelling scent that i normally wear everyday.It was a bargin as well i thought at just £27.99 for 100ml You will be able to get it from Boots, Superdrug or on the internet where it will be cheaper. I dont really like the packaging as its not very girly.


The next perfume i got at christmas is Kim Kardashian's fragrance is a again a sweet scent that i usually wear if iam going on a night out or a special occasion, i dont wear it during the day because i think it can be a little overpowing and you dont need much of it at all to get the scent. This retails at around £30.00 for 50ml. Again iam not a big fan of this packaging as its a bit dull and boring.

The last perfume i have i got  today is Daisy by Marc Jacobs, like the others in my collection its a  sweet and floral scent. It was £45.00 for 50ml from Boots, so a little more expensive but worth it.

Once ive had it a little longer i will let you know what i think of it. i think i will be saving it for special occasions though. I love this packaging as its really fun and girly.

Hoped you enjoyed this post will be back soon lovlies. xox

Sleek Blush Palette.

So for a while now ive been wanting to purchase a new blush as a few of mine were getting a little but grubby and i was bored the same colours so i went out on the hunt for a good blusher. Instead of getting just one blush that normally costs around £6.99 depending on which brand you get one from, I came across Sleek blush palette were i got 3 blushers for £9.99 which was a really good price i thought.

 
                                                         



  'Sleek Palette in Lace 367'

These colours are great for me as i have pale skin and these make your cheeks 'pop'. From left to right they are shades Crochet, Guilpure and Chantilly. They are amazingly pigmented so you can build the colour up to the required intensity.There was some other blushes palettes that i would consider buying now insted of just the one as you will get more for your money.
                                                  
As you can see they are different shades so you can mix it up depending on how you are feeling on the day. The middle one is a more shimmery shade which would be ideal for going on a night out and the other two are great for everyday use.

I will be doing beauty hauls soon so watch out for them coming soon.

Dior Lipgloss Review.

For some time now ive been wanting to treat myself to a luxurious piece of make up that will last me for a while.While walking through Debenhams and looking at all the beautiful stands like YSL, Chanel and Bobbi Brown i came to a decision to pick something from Dior.
'Princess shade 553.'



This lipgloss is truly amazing and well worth the price tag of £22. It is not at all sticky and wet feeling like some brands of lipgloss are, it effortlessly goes onto the lips.
At first i thought it was going to be a bright pink shade but its not as bright as it may look, its a suttle shade of pink with a hint of sparkle.
It has a sweet smelling scent like strawberry's.This shade is also great to wear to work or a meal out with friends.I recommend it to anyone who is wanting to invest in a good piece of make up and doesn't mind the price tag. :)
