Technic Bronze Palette First Impressions!

A few months ago (...last August, oops!) I reviewed Technic's Nudes eyeshadow palette and overall I really liked it (link here if you're interested). Today I have another one of their palettes and this one is their Bronze palette. Bronze shades really suit me as I have blue eyes and once again, Technic have not let me down!

W7 In the Buff- Naked2 DUPE!

For months I have been debating whether or not to buy one of Urban Decay's Naked palettes. The reviews I've seen rave about them and when I've swatched them in the stores I've been amazed by the quality. The one thing putting me off buying one is the price, but luckily when I found this baby I didn't have to worry anymore...

Technic Nudes Palette First Impressions + Makeup Look

Hello there! So recently I was shopping with one of my friends and she was hunting down a eye palette to take on holiday. I don't think she realised how bad a decision it was to take me; as we'd end up spending hours looking at the same types of palettes and eventually decide not to get anything! But this trip I did end up with an exciting find... Enter Technic's Nudes palette!

Eyeko Skinny Liner Review

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

So, like everyone, I love freebies (don't lie... you do too!), and recently I've been looking for a new liquid liner. As luck would have it this month's Glamour magazine had a free Eyeko felt tip liner with it so I had to grab it! I actually had just bought a new liner pen from Rimmel (review coming soon!) but you can never have too many eyeliners and it's always good to have a backup! I hadn't done any research into whether this was a good product or not, but for £2 with a magazine who can complain! So, if you want to see my first impressions and thoughts on this product then just keep on reading!

May New Buys

I cannot believe we're already in June! The month of May flew by and the speed has actually scared me! I'll be leaving school soon and if I'm completely honest I don't want to grow up! I've nearly finished all my exams and I'm practically on study leave (even though I still have to go in for 2 hours! Pointless...). This is also the reason I haven't put many posts up either; so I'm sorry about that! So lets get into it! Again the majority of this post is going to be nail polish as my obsession with it continues!

Best Buys: March and April

Yeah, I was a bit slack with my 'new buy' posts for March and April so I've decided to compact it into a post talking about the best products I bought from those months. There's still quite a few things so I will put a page breaker in! As I've said in a few of my posts, recently I've really been in to nail polish, so this post is going to be nail polish heavy!

February New Buys

So I know this post is a tad late, but hey! Better late than never right?! I didn't buy that much in the month of February but I am happy with the products I have bought. So lets get into them!

The first products are a matching lip liner and lipstick from Look Beauty. I hadn't heard of this brand before but they were on sale so I thought I'd give them a try! The lipstick is a beautiful deep reddy purple colour (called Berry Vamp) and I find this is the type of colour that suits me best. It has quite good staying power and if worn for a long period of time stains the lip. (Which I actually find good as it means I don't have to re-apply!) It gives the lip a lovely glossy colour and doesn't smudge. In my opinion it was a great buy for only £3.50!



The lip liner is a also called Berry Vamp and was £2. I found that it glided smoothly onto the lips. It did seem as though it was slightly TOO smooth and I think if left for long periods of time it would smudge and smear! But again the colour is a gorgeous berry red purple and goes great with lots of outfits and eye looks!

January New Buys!

So, because I don't buy things enough to do a haul, I thought I'd make a post about all the things (beauty related and things I think are awesome, haha!) that I've bought in the month of January. I'm hoping I can make a few more of these posts in the future, so lets get started!

The first thing, isn't beauty related but I LOVE it soo much I just had to include it! It's my True Blood calendar for 2013! I love the books and I'm currently on the 5th one in the collection (I have a lot to catch up on as there are now 13!) I also love the programme however I need to catch up on that as well because I haven't even started the 3rd season yet! But I love this calendar at it was well worth the money!
