Mini Revlon Haul

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a lovely week! Today I am going to be showing you what I purchased in my very mini Revlon Haul (which literally consists of 3 items)! I hope you enjoy it!

 I have to say that Revlon is my favourite drugstore brand! I feel like it achieves top quality results but for half the price of any high end product! They are amazing.

The first thing I bought was a new bottle of my favourite foundation ever - Revlon colour stay! This foundation is just so good! It provides such full coverage and gives a semi matte finish. It also doesn't look cakey and doesn't dry your skin out! It is just fantastic! I bought mine in the shade buff because the previous colour I bought was too orange for me!

The next thing I bought was an ultra HD matte lip colour. I'm really glad I bought this because I absolutely love it! It is matte but it doesn't seem to dry out my lips. It also feels very soft on my lips and the ultra HD matte lip colours have such a good range of shades for you to choose from. The colour I bought is in the shade devotion which is quite a strong, dark pink but it is still a very wearable colour.

The final product that I purchased was another ultra HD matte lip colour. Like I said earlier , these are just great!  I got my second one in the colour seduction which I would say is a pinky , peachy nude. I prefer this colour to devotion because it is less bright and I just love nude colours anyway.

That is the end of my Revlon Haul and I hope you enjoyed this post!

Thankyou!

No mirror makeup challenge

Hello everyone! I hope you are having a great day! Today I just wanted to do something different so I decided to take a shot at the no mirror make up challenge.

I had to get all of these products on my face without using a mirror. Of course when it came to the eyeliner things got fun but I found everything else quite easy to put on.

So the first thing I did was put on my garnier bb cream with a beauty blender followed by my urban decay concealer and my Yves saint laurent under eye concealer. I found these pretty easy to put on without a mirror but I just made sure that I buffed them all in really well.

Next I put a bit of hoola bronzer on my brush and put it on my cheeks and I did the same to my Nars Orgasm blusher. These were also easy to put on because you literally just have to brush your cheek up and down with a brush which is easy peasy!

The next thing I did was put on some eyeshadow. I was a bit worried that it would come out really bad but when I looked at my make up it didn't really notice. I used my tanya burr galaxy palette.


However putting my eyeliner on was a different story!  It was so hard which shows in the results! I just didn't know where to start, where my lash line was and I didn't know what on earth I was doing so I just tried my best.

I then put on my mascara and I used benefits they're real mascara for this. It was easy to put on the mascara but the only thing that went wrong was that I kept on hitting my face with my mascara wand which resulted in random black dots around my eyes and nose area but oh well!

The final thing I had to do was my lipstick! For this I chose a bright coral lip lacquer because I just thought if your gonna go for it , you gotta go for it (or in other words you might as well choose the brightest lipstick in your collection instead of going for an easy nude). I used my soap and glory sexy mother pucker lip lacquer in watchama coral and my lipstick went on quite well.

Results
It is now time for me to stop rambling on and actually show you my make up!







Ta daaaa! It's not too bad is it? I think I just need to practice the eyeliner!

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed this post!

My Barry M nail varnish collection

Hello guys! Today I was actually going to do a whole post on some changes I am making to my blogging but I started to write it and it was so boring so I gave up on that idea! Instead, I  have decided to show you my Barry m nail varnish collection which is quite vast so hopefully you will enjoy it but I will talk to you a little bit about my blogging changes at the end of this post! Enjoy!

If you know me then you will know that I am absolutely obsessed with Barry M nail varnish! They are cheap, long lasting, good quality and there is sooo many colours to choose from! I just love them and I literally don't use any other nail varnishes apart from them!

Gelly Hi shine nail paints-
This range provides your nails with a juicy and super glossy, colourful finish!
My colours (left-right)
Fondant, Acai smoothie, Blueberry, Pink punch, Greenberry, ruby slippers (I couldn't find this colour in the Gelly hi shine range so it must've been limited edition but I found ruby slippers in the ordinary nail paint range which is very similar), Sugar plum and Black cherry.

Speedy Quick dry nail paints-
This range helps you to achieve a perfect mani that dries in seconds! The nail varnishes also have a new flat brush which helps you to apply the nail varnish even quicker and with more precision!
My colours (left-right)
In a heart beat, Sprint finish, Pit stop, Eat my dust, Lap of honour and Supersonic

Matte nail paints-
This range helps you to achieve the latest trend of matte nails! They are a change to your usual glossy nail varnish! Don't forget the top coat to help protect the varnish from chipping!
My colours (left-right)
Cancun, matte top coat and Espresso

Aquarium nail paints-
This collection helps your nails to shine from every angle. Depending on where you look, you will be able to see two totally different colours. These two tone nail varnishes help you achieve the total under the sea effect!
My colours (left-right)
Persian, Pacific and Caspian

Sunset daylight curing nail paints-
This range helps you to achieve the look of pro salon finish nails without a uv lamp or the expense. All you need is a colour and the topcoat from this range to get long lasting, gel like nails that can be removed with a normal remover.
My colour-
The way you make me teal ( I just realised you are supposed to use the topcoat with it to get the best results so I will have to purchase that but it still works fine alone)

Classic nail paints-
These award winning nail colours are from the classic nail paint range. They are great quality, long lasting and quick drying!
My colours-
Diamond, vintage violet, bright purple, Blueberry, black and Matt white.

Nail effects-
This range creates stunning affects on your nails such as crackle.
My colours-
Nail effect 311

Mani mask nail paints-
These nail varnishes are designed to camouflage, colour and care for your nails as well as giving a semi matte finish.

Clear top coat-
This helps to protect and look after your nails as well as giving a glossy finish.

So that was my nail varnish collection and I hope you found that interesting. Barry M also do lots of other ranges so be sure to check out them as well at https://www.barrym.com/shop/Nails

Blogging changes-
So earlier I was telling you about some changes I am going to be making to my blogging. They are not that major but basically because I have been getting really busy lately with school work and soon summer exams will be coming up so I have decided to only do one post a week which will be posted on Saturday!

Thanks for reading! I really appreciate it!

April Favourites

Hello everybody ! I hope you are all having a lovely day or have had a lovely day or are about to have a lovely day depending on what time you are reading this ! In case you haven't noticed the title, today I am going to be doing my April Favourites! I'm just going to go straight into it so enjoy!

The first product that I have been loving this month is my beauty blender ! I have been using this towards the end of this month and I am obsessed with it! It makes your foundation go on so nicely without it looking cakey and it is just brilliant ! For more information click here for a previous post where I talked about it !

The next thing I have been loving this month is Soap and Glorys thick and fast mascara . Wow this is just so good! It lengthens your lashes , thickens them and just makes them look so much prettier but still very natural ! I don't find it to be very clumpy at all and it is just brilliant ! Nice one soap and glory !!

I have also been loving my Urban decay naked palette ! I have probably raved about this so much but I just love it! I can create so many looks with this and the colours are just all so pigmented and pretty ! Love it!

The next thing I have been loving is my benefit high beam! I have had this for quite a long time but for some reason, this month, I have just been reaching for it so much! It just gives such a lovely highlight and it is stunning!

This month I have also been loving a few perfumes . The first one I have been loving is The body Shops grapefruit body mist. This smells so zingy and fresh and of course just like a grapefruit. If you don't like grapefruit or citrusy scents then you won't like this but I find it really nice and refreshing.

The other perfume I have been loving is Lush's 29 high street perfume. I believe that you can only get this perfume from the Lush shop in Poole which was where I got it from but it is definitely worth going there especially if you live near it!  29 high street literally smells like what a lush shop smells like. It is sweet, strong a little bit spicy and a little bit musky but it is a really nice scent. It also brings back memories for me of my holiday to Poole !

Music
I think April has been such a good month for Music! I have been loving lots of songs. My top 3 favourites are

1. Sia and Sean paul- Cheap thrills , I absolutely love this song! So cool and catchy!

2. Selena Gomez- Hands to myself , such a great song!

3. DNCE- Cake by the Ocean , omg I just love this song soooo much! It is definitely my favourite song at the moment. Please go and listen to this if you haven't and be prepared to become addicted to it! Sooo good!!

Ok so those were my April Favourites !

I hope you enjoyed this post! Comment below on anything you want to really but I would love to know what you have been loving this month and I would also appreciate if you gave some suggestions on what posts you would like me to do!

Have a good week!
