Anna Sui Eyeshadow & Lip Colour Palettes ♥

  

Eyeshadow & Lip Colour Palette - RRP £28 (currently both £14) - Escentual*

I was recently sent these pretty palettes from Emma at Escentual. They have both got such beautiful packaging and a gorgeous range of highly pigmented colours.
The eye palette is so versatile, it can be used to create a soft natural look or a smoky, night out look. All of these bold shades are full of colour and are very pigmented.

Elf 32pc Eyeshadow Palette 'Everyday' Review ♥

Elf 32pc Palette in 'Everyday' - £6.95 (was £9.00)

Hellooo!

I have had this palette for a couple of weeks now and I am so happy with it! I have been using it every day and mixing and matching the shades. I have been wanting to try using more purple colours on my eyes recently, I can safely say that all the purple shades in this palette are divine! All of the shadows are highly pigmented and blend into my crease and eyelid perfectly. For the price of this palette I was really impressed with the quality of these eye shadows. There is a mixture of matt and shimmery shadows which all compliment each other nicely. The large variety of colours in this palette mean you can have a dark smoky eye one day, a natural earth toned look the next or if you are feeling a bit daring, a bright pop of colour for spring! This palette would be a brilliant starter palette for people who want to learn how to apply eyeshadow and create different looks all year round. I hope you like the look and sound of this palette, I recommend you grab one now while it is still on offer and add it to your eyeshadow palette collection!

MUA Ever After - Matte Palette | Review ♥

MUA Ever After Palette £4 - Link

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a good weekend! I didn't do very much, I had lunch with James on Saturday and then yesterday, to celebrate the first day of my week off (woohoo!), I had a lazy day! I hope you enjoy today's review, let me know what you think!

I was so excited when I seen the latest addition to MUA's makeup palette range and for only £4 you really can't go wrong! I only ever use matte shadows on my eyes so this palette was exactly what my ever growing makeup collection needed. 

I have read a few negative reviews on this palette, however, I really like it! What I find with a lot of eye shadows is you need to get past the top layer to get to the true colour, once you've done that with this palette, you get highly pigmented and easy to blend colours. 

I love the colour selection, if I was to create my own MAC palette this would be the shade range I'd choose. It ranges from the blackest of black to a very light cream colour, I used the black along with a gel eyeliner for my Halloween makeup last Thursday, it lasted all night and blended perfectly (see makeup below). I use the light and dark brown shades every day now and I am amazed at the different eye looks this little palette can create.

Most days I use 'Fade' along the top of my crease as a light transition colour, followed by 'Penny' on my crease and onto the top half of my eyelid and finally to finish off the look I use 'Truffle' in the outer corner, blending it out evenly into the shade 'Penny'.

April Favourites

Hello everyone (:

I hope you have all had a good week so far, I have had a couple days off so I thought it would be a perfect time to catch up on some YouTube videos and write a couple blog posts, so here is my April Favourites!

I have a Superdrug haul coming up soon which includes a few of these products, so keep your eyes peeled for that! 

Cath Kidston Hand Cream: I have written about this hand cream here if you want to know more about it, I absolutely love it, I can definitely say it is my favourite hand cream, my hands have been pretty dry recently and this has been brilliant!

Tresemme Platinum Strength: I haven't had my hair cut in about a year now as I am growing it, so I was feeling like it needed a bit of a lift. I seen this new Tresemme shampoo and conditioner featured on Superdrug's website and then I realised it was 3 for £10 on selected products in this new range, so quickly added them to my basket, my hair definitely looks and feels softer after using this shampoo and conditioner.

MUA Undress Me Too palette: I have reviewed this palette here, it has been my go to palette for this month, I love all the colours and I can create so many different looks from it! The shimmer shadows are very very pigmented, the matt shadows aren't as vibrant but are buildable, I love it!

Rimmel 702 Marshmallow Heaven: I have been in quite a 'Spring' mood recently so I am loving pastel colours, this polish is very fast drying and long wearing which I can't seem to find in a few of my Essie polishes, which is annoying because I love their pastel colours!:(

Estee Lauder Trio: I have had this trio for quite a while now and as you can see I have hit pan on the bronzer, but I have been mixing the middle colour with what is left of the brown and it has been making a lovely shade for my cheeks.

Witch Anti Blemish Primer: This primer is amazing! I will definitely be reviewing it, it brightens up your face and definitely clears up any marks from spots and I haven't had a breakout since using it.

Cosmopolitan Beauty Blender: Finally, I bought the cheaper alternative to the much raved about Beauty Blender, I have to say I am amazed at how good it is! When I apply my foundation, it looks airbrushed and even all over my face, I cannot praise this sponge enough!

What are your favourites this month?:)

MUA Undress Me Too Palette Review

Hello! I hope you are all well :) It is snowing here in Scotland so it is freeeeezing! *brr* what's the weather like where you are?:)

I use MUA's Undressed palette every day as I haven't got the Naked palette, so this is my replacement for the now! I absolutely love this palette so when I seen that MUA had released a second edition 'Undress Me too' I was so excited (I know it's pretty sad but hey ho)! However my Superdrug didn't have it in stock every time I checked but the other day.. dun dun duuun.. they had it, so I had to buy it! 

I absolutely love it, the colours are beautiful and exactly what I like to use, the two palettes are similar but different at the same time.. this one seems to have more matt shades which I like as I use them as bases more than shimmery colours. The colours have really good colour pay off and are very bendable. I like the packaging, some people think white is kind of tacky but I quite like it as I think you can see the colours better.

This palette is an absolute bargain for £4!
