Rimmel Fix & Perfect Pro Primer - 002

I recently went shopping and my friend recommended I get buy this Rimmel Primer. When I first saw it I thought 'wow, that's quite a small bottle', but it turns out that only a small amount is needed when applying it, so it should last a long time.

When applying onto the face you apply to clean skin either alone or under foundation. After applying, my skin felt instantly smoother, then once I had applied my foundation and all my other makeup I saw that my skin actually looked healthier and brighter, still with the added smoothness.

After a long day my foundation had seemed to last longer than usual and my skin still felt soft and healthy. 

Overall, this product is brilliant at prolonging your foundation, helping your skin feel healthier so therefore it's well worth the money. 

I hoped this helped and if you have any recommendations for me please don't be afraid to get in touch via the 'Contact' tab at the top. 

Thank you!

Max Factor Eye Brightening Mascara

 

I absolutly love mascara and when I heard about this Max Factor Eye Brightening mascara I had to get it. First of all when I was buying it in store there wasn't an example brush so I was a bit worried at what kind of brush it would be, but once I got home and tested it, the brush was simple plastic, yet effective.

 

 

When applying onto the eye it was an easy application, but at first the mascara was a bit too wet so it went onto my brow line, however after a few goes it hasn't done it again. This mascara gives your eyelashes a 'natural' look which I much prefer when it's just during the day and not going out, but once you apply another coat or two, the eye lashes become fuller and much more 'fluttery', which is perfect for a night out. With the eye brightening, I did see a slight improvement, but not as much as I was hoping. The actual colour of the mascara (Black Ruby for green eyes) is what will affect your eye colour, so all in all you could just simply find any mascara with that colour and it will have the same effect. This mascara lasts the whole day and doesn't rub off, but when applied onto the bottom lashes may smudge a little, just like most mascaras. At the end of the day when it comes to taking it off, it comes off easily with any makeup remover and doesn't leave any behind on your lashes.

 

 

Overall, I'm happy with this mascara and it was worth the money. Max Factor also does this mascara for brown and blue eyes as well as green.

 

I hope this helped and you enjoyed reading.

Thank you!

Helen E - Shimmer Eye Powder 2,6,20

 

I've found Helen E to be a really beautiful and lasting makeup brand and when I saw these Shimmer Eye Powders, I had to get them. They come is these little pots which I find make the product look beautiful, but on top of that they're a very handy size as they fit perfectly into your makeup bag. When trying to get the powder onto the brush, I found it quite difficult even though they have a shake control. However, the eye powders themselves are just beautiful, the shimmer effect you get when the light catches the powder is amazing and the product itself lasts for a good amount of time when out and about, definitely worth the money! My favourite has to be No.20.

 

 

They come in a massive range of 32 different colours as well!

Hope you enjoyed reading!

Gelly Hi-Shine by Barry M - Watermelon 308

 

Barry M is one of my favorite nail varnish brands and I have a good collection of their colours ranging from their normal varnishes to the special effects range. When I first saw that they had a new Hi-Shine collection out I was really intrigued at how this product would look and finally went out to the shops to get one. It comes in its usual packaging of the cubed liked container, but it now has a silver lid which makes it easier to distinguish when looking for it in store.

 

When applying onto the nail, it only takes a few layers until the varnish is fully opaque and I find that the effect in which it gives off is beautiful, as it has a shellac manicure finish, which looks very elegant for a night/day out. The varnish lasts on the nail for around 3 days until it starts chipping, but overall I love this product and will definitely be choosing a few  more colours from their collection.

I think the Prickly Pear & Pomegranate colours look amazing!
