Illamasqua Mini Lipstick Haul

I <3 Illamasqua as a brand, its the most edgiest out there! Currently, they have a crazy cheap sale on and I didn not want to miss out :)

I picked up these two bold colored lippies for less than half price!

Red Hot Lips!

Finding the perfect red lipstick can be a bit daunting as reds can be scary enough to wear as it is for some of us so finding the red for you = half the battle won!

I've picked out a selection of red lipsticks of a variety of tones to help you find the one for you...

Contour and Highlight Duo - Review

I still haven't got round to buying the Make Up For Ever Sculpting Kit but found this similar looking product on Ebay and decided to check it out...

Marks & Spencer - Limited Collection - Bronzer Review

I absolutely LOVE to contour and feel it truely lifts and accentuates the shape of your face.  So, I am always on the lookout for contour powders.  Drugstores still need to catch on with the matte contour powder/bronzer concept as apart from Sleek Face Contour Kit all seem to have shimmer in them!

Shimmer does not contour as the glitter in it does anything but create a shadow. Marks & Spencer have a bronzer which is matte in their Limited Collection which I snapped up to try.

Top Purple Lippies

I love purple lippies and think they make such a great change from the typical red and hot pinks to have a statement bold lip...

Here's my top fav purple lipsticks - some are limited edition but I've still included them as MAC tends to repromote often.

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Eyeshadow - Review

I have had these for a few months now and tested throughly.  These are the very much sought after Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Eyeshadows.  These are very popular and sold out a lot in stores regularly.  Main reason for this being how they are compared to MAC Paint Pots and they actually live up to this claim! 

I have three of the colors:  Permanent Taupe, On and On Bronze and Turquoise Forever.

Sleek Honour Blush Review - 2012 Collection

I love Sleek's powder blushes.  They are of amazing quality and applauded by many top makeup artists for their formula, color selection, smooth application and longevity.  Easily the best blush formula available in high street makeup brands.

In order to mark the 2012 Olympic Games Sleek has just released a brand new collection consisting of an eyeshadow pallette, a pout polish and this blush - Honour.

MAC Nude Lipsticks

We all love nude lippies and they can be so confusing, all looking the same half the time when out there to shop for one. I have taken a selection of my favorite beige/pink nude lippies and swatched them along with a few comments  to help your hunt for that perfect nude lip! I have swatched each lipstick on my bare lips, with no lip liner or anything else, so you can see the true colour of the lipstick.
