Favourite Mascaras

I have been through many different mascaras from many different brands trying to find the perfect one for me. I think i have finally found my top 3 favourite mascaras so i thought i would share them with you today.


Benefit roller lash
I feel like this is a mascara that almost everyone loves. It has a hook n roll brush that curls and lifts your lashes amazingly without having to use an eyelash curler. It doesn't smudge or flake and lasts really long and is also easy to remove. This mascara just makes my lashes look amazing and it is defiantly the best mascara I've ever tried.

Maybelline Lash Sensational
When i first used this mascara, i'm not going to lie i really didn't like it, purely because it clumped my eyelashes so badly. I decided to leave it for a bit so that it would dry out slightly and after that i completely fell in love with it. It makes my lashes really stand out and voluminous. I personally think this mascara is just as good as roller lash and it so much cheaper.

L'oreal Miss Manga
I have repurchased this mascara many times because i think its one of the best drugstore mascaras out there. This mascara is obviously inspired by manga so its very lengthening and makes your lashes look thick which is personally what i like in a mascara. This is defiantly my staple mascara.

Out of all the mascaras i've tried, which is quite a lot, these 3 are my favourites.
Let me know what your favourite mascara is,
Thanks for reading!

Monthly Favourites | July

July has flown by and now its August which means its time for a new favourites blogpost. I am going to be sharing with you what i have been loving this month.



The first thing i've been loving this month is benefits roller lash mascara. After seeing the price of this mascara i wasn't sure if it was worth it but i saw so many people raving about it that i had to buy it. I do not regret buying this mascara as its amazing! It gives so much volume and curl to your lashes without having to use an eyelash curler. Its defiantly become my new favourite mascara.



Next thing is this rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in 03. I've had this a while but this month i've found myself reaching for it almost everyday. Its the perfect nude shade and its just easy to put with any makeup look.


My next favourite is a blush, this one is a mosaic blush from MUA in the colour english rose. The reason i love this so much is because i'm not the type to go for a super pigmented blush as my cheeks are naturally quite rosy and sometimes using a blush can look too much. This blush only gives the smallest amount of colour but mostly give a very pretty highlight to the cheeks which i love.




I have been loving this sinful colours nail polish in the colour Island Coral. I think this is such a pretty colour and even though these nail polishes are so cheap (£1.99 each) they are the longest lasting nail polish i have ever owned. I wore this one for over a week and it didn't chip once. If your looking for some new nail polishes i really recommend sinful colours as they are amazing and have a wide variety of colours.



This month i've been absolutely loving the vampire diaries, Its amazing and i'm so addicted. If you're looking for a new tv show to watch then i defiantly say check it out because you won't regret it.

.

My final favourite of the month is a singer, Melanie Martinez. I've loved Melanie for about a year now and shes bringing out her first album called crybaby. She has already released some of the songs and they are amazing!! Defiantly check out her music because i think she deserves so much more recognition.
What have been your favourites this month?

Revlon Ultra HD lipstick | review

Today i thought i would write a review on one of the new revlon ultra HD lipsticks, the one i have is in the shade Rose. These lipsticks cost £7.99 each.




I really love the colour of this lipstick i feel like its a perfect summer shade without being too bright. These lipsticks claim to have a weightless feel and a HD colour. I can defiantly agree with the weightless feel part, it glides on nicely and is moisturizing, although its not as moisturizing as revlons lip butters. i don't really see how they have a HD colour though and the colour doesn't last very long, maybe up to 2 hours.






The packaging is silver with a clear lid, i quite like the fact that the lid is clear so you can see what colour it is. One disappointing thing with this packaging is that the lipstick doesn't fully wind down so there is a bit sticking out the top which means its easy to take a chunk out the top of the lipstick when you're taking the lid on and off (which i have actually already done).

Overall i do like the lipstick but i don't think i would repurchase another one unless there was a colour i really wanted.
Thanks for reading!

Mac lipstick in Brave | Review

Recently i decided to finally buy my very first Mac lipstick. I never rushed to buy one because, well for one they are quite expensive and i also wasn't sure if they were all that worth it. Before i bought one i searched around for a colour that i wouldn't regret buying when i got home. I decided to go for a wearable everyday nude shade as i would probably get more wear out of it than a bright one.


I was torn between 3 or 4 nude shades but i decided to settle with the colour 'Brave'. Its a dark neutral pink with a satin finish, the formula is very creamy and not drying at all. It gives a nice natural colour to your lips and lasts, i would say nearly 4 hours. After this purchase i defiantly think that Mac lipsticks are worth their price as the quality is amazing. I can't wait to start my collection of them now!
                                                      Whats your favourite mac lipstick?

The Bronze Of Champions | Benefit Kit review

Recently it was my birthday and i was kindly given by my friend, The Bronze Of Champions Benefit kit. This is actually my first ever benefit product so i thought i would do a review on it.




 It comes in a box which includes 6 products and a contouring brush. Each of the products are mini size which is good for me because i have never bought anything from benefit so i can see what i like and then i can go and buy the full size.





















This kit comes with 2 eyeshadow products, the first one is a cream eyeshadow in the colour bikini-tini which is a shimmery champagne colour and the powder eyeshadow is called thanks a latte which is a shimmery brown. I love putting bikini-tini all over the lid with thanks a latte on the outer corner. Its a simple look but looks pretty!


 It also includes a highlighter, this is the watts up highlighter. This leaves a lovely highlight on the tops of your cheek bones and i also find it comes in quite handy for inner corner highlighting because its so small.



The next thing is the they're real mascara. I have always wanted to buy this but never have because theres so many mixed reviews on it, some people say its amazing but others say its not worth the hype. Personally i think its amazing! it really lengthens my eyelashes and makes them really voluminous. I will defiantly be buying the full size when this one runs out. 


Hoola bronzer seems to be everyones favourite bronzer so i've always wanted to try it but never got round to buying it. I have to say that i do love this bronzer and it looks very natural if you blend it well which is what i like. 



Lastly is the hoola ultra plush lipgloss, It is a nude lipgloss with gold shimmer in it. I love the consistency of this lipgloss, its not sticky at all and is very smooth so i thought that i would love this but for me it doesn't last long at all which is really annoying! i probably wouldn't repurchase this as i don't think its worth the money but that's just me. 

Whats your favourite benefit product?

L'oreal Paris colour riche lipstick | Review

Recently i picked up a new lipstick as i really want to have a better variety of lipstick colours in my collection as they are all very similar at the moment. As i was browsing the L'oreal lipstick section in boots i instantly fell in love this one - L'oreal colour riche in the colour 640 Erotique.


The colour of this particular lipstick is a medium pink with a slight hint of brown. This is actually one of the matte colours from the collection, i was expecting it to be quite drying but i was wrong. Even though its matte its so so moisturizing which is something i didnt expect as some can be slightly drying. This is probably the most moisturizing matte lipstick i have ever had. 



This lipstick stays on for so long, even after eating i found that i didnt have to top it up like i usually have to do which is amazing because its a pain having to top it up constantly when it wears off. The cost of this lipstick is about £6.99 which in my opinion is a really good price for such a high quality lipstick. I think the L'oreal lipsticks are a new favourite of mine and i cannot wait to buy more as they have such a large variety of colours. 

If you are looking to buy some more lipsticks i defiantly say you check out these ones as they are amazing!!
Love, Em♥

Maybelline Colour Tattoos | Review

Today i thought i would talk about the maybelline 24 hour colour tattoos as they are a well loved product in my makeup collection.




These 3 colours are probably my favourites of all the collection. They are called On and on bronze which is just your typical bronze shade, the other one is called Pink Gold which is a pink shade with a slight gold shimmer through it and the last shade is called Eternal Gold which is obviously a shimmery gold. 
                             

                                            
I love these colour tattoos because they can be used as a base for your eyeshadow and they can also be used on they're own.The pigmentation of these gel eyeshadows is really good and they stay on all day without budging. They cost £4.99 each and they come in a variety of different colours. These are really good if your in a rush doing your makeup because they take 2 seconds to apply and it looks like you actually made an effort.




These are defiantly one of my favourite and most used products and i really recommend them to anyone!
