What's in my travel make-up bag?

So I’ve come home for the Easter Holidays and thought I would share what I decided to bring back home with me. It could probably be described in two words: too much.

Review - Revlon Photoready Cream Blusher

I’m always attracted to the idea of cream products. I’m currently on the hunt for a cream highlighter and am welcoming any suggestions. I’m also a peachy blush person and only wore Benefit’s Georgia (now sadly discontinued) for years. But last year I saw that Revlon had a range of cream blushes. Despite often seeing YouTubers and Bloggers with other shades I have only have seen two in Boots. They’ve brought out a coral shade for Spring/Summer which I’d quite like to try but haven’t seen.

In search of the perfect purple

Since trying my friend’s Parlez-Vous OPI? nail polish I had my heart set on finding the perfect purple coating for my nails. A perfect pale purple but not quite into the pastel ranges. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the OPI polish as I think the collection is no longer available.  So the search for a dupe began.

Beauty Haul #1

Despite being pretty poor at the moment, I went shopping with a couple of friends to pick up some beauty bits. It was nearly fashion too but I talked myself out of the neon pink jeans.

Things that aren’t all they’re cracked up to be #1

A lot of things get a huge amount of hype and love in the blogger and YouTube community. Some things are very deserving of this praise but some things you get and just go really? Both products featured today are face products. The Revlon Nearly Naked pressed powder and the Bourjois Healthy Mix concealer.

Review - Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer

As soon as I saw the use of these starting to appear in YouTube tutorials I knew I had to get my hands on some. Bright and hopefully long lasting colours? Right up my street. I first got Stellar which is a very bright pink and then went into every Boots I walked past until I got my hands on the red – Big Bang. I’m debating the paler shades for smoky eye days but have yet to make the plunge.

Review - Urban Decay Naked Palette

I got this for Christmas last year and it has quickly flown to the top of my most used products list. There aren’t really any words to say how much I love it. I just do.

Introduction

Hello and welcome to my blog! I thought it might be best to start off with a little bit about myself so here goes.

I’m a 19-year-old student and I’ve been wearing make-up since I was about 13 but began to wear it every day and define my style from the age of 15. Although looking back at it now maybe dark blue eye shadow ringed all the way around my eyes wasn’t the best look. Now I tend to go for more neutral shadows but with a pop of colour on the lips.
