Lolita

So I did it, I finally caved & got a high end liquid lip. Was it worth it?
Well I have to say I'm still a little undecided on that one!

The liquid lip I decided to go for was the infamous Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in.. you guessed it Lolita.

Firstly, I have to say I do really love the packaging of this. The detailing is cool & the skin tube is really nice to carry around in your handbag. I also like the doe-foot applicator, which makes for easy application.

The formula of this product, I think is pretty good. It has a great wear time & is very comfortable to wear. I would say it is very comfort to wear for a matte lip product. So I think my problem here really isn't with the product itself, it's more with the shade.

I love a mauve nude, as much as the next person. However I feel like this shade comes off a lot more brown than I would have liked/ or expected. I'll be honest I only went with this shade because of the hype surrounding it & I kinda wish I hadn't.
I can however make this shade work for me, it's just usually a case of applying less rather than more. So, if you are looking to purchase one of these lippies I would advise trying to swatch them in person opposed to buying online. All I can say is some of the swatches aren't very accurate.

Northern Lights Unboxing

16:37:00 Unknown 0 Comments

It's time for my second Lush unboxing! This time we will be unboxing their Northern Lights gift set.
I really like this gift set because it has only bath bombs in it, which is the product I use the most by Lush.

Another good thing about this set, is that all the bath bombs are very different, in terms of what they do for your skin & in scent.

Check out the unboxing here:


This set contains:
- Shoot for the Stars Bath Bomb
- Northern Lights Bath Bomb
- Intergalactic Bath Bomb

Zoella Secret Scenta

16:08:00 Unknown 0 Comments

Christmas has come & gone, however the gifts are still being sorted out, haha, you all know what I mean! I wanted to do a mini review/ unboxing of Zoella's fragrance gift set.
The gift set is called Secret Scenta, very cute.
Now, I've never tried any of these fragrance before so I really had no idea what they'd be like. I think I have smelt a few in the shops, but that really doesn't mean anything. The sizes of these firstly, are super cute. I actually think they're the perfect size, as if you're not too keen on one it isn't too large.
However, it is a little sad if you love them, haha!
I also love that they've kept the same packaging/ design as a lot of sample items are very bland on the packaging front. Another thing is that all the fragrances are different, which leads me to say 'well done Zoe'.
Overall, I think this is a great little gift set. If you can still get hold of one, I would say do it! I'm hoping they bring these back next year, as they make a great gift!
PS. My current favourite is Let's Spritz!

BOO Bath Melt!

16:38:00 Unknown 0 Comments

BOO!
Literally! That is the name of today's product. This is Lush's Boo bath melt.
Now I've never used a bath melt before but they're rather simple really. You simply run it under the tap & pop it in the bath water.
With a combination of ginger oil & cocoa butter this bath melt is seriously moisturising & soothing.
If you're having any dry skin issues this will sort you right out!

Flawless Matte

14:53:00 Unknown 0 Comments

Matte eyeshadows are a staple item in any make up kit, however most palettes tend to have very few or none at all! This is where matte palettes can really come into their own, much like this one by Make Up Revolution.

I have tried a few products by Make Up Revolution before, including eyeshadows & they have been a little hit or miss. 

So this palette is their Flawless Matte ultra eyeshadow palette. The palette consists of a mixture of cool & warm tone matte eyeshadows. The first thing I will have to credit them on is the mirror in here, it's great! A decent size & good quality.

So although that is nice, what about the eyeshadows themselves.
I obviously haven't tried every single eyeshadow in here, but having tried quite a few I can say they are again very hit or miss. The more I try drugstore eyeshadow palettes the more I think that you really do get what you pay for with eyeshadows! 
There is also no correlation on which shades are good or bad, it's literally a lucky dip.

I find this a real shame as this palette had the potential to be great, but unless your really are on a budget & aren't too fussed about the quality, then I wouldn't recommend this palette. I would say, to get the use & moneys worth I'd save up for a better palette.
