Cheeky Makeup Haul...

University is just around the corner and it's given me the worlds best excuse to splash the cash on some new makeup products!

Kate Moss Lipstick
I purchased 2 Rimmel London lasting finish Kate Moss lipsticks this week for £5.49 each...

Number 08
 
 
 

I personally wear a lot of soft pinks or pinky/browns because I believe it compliments my skin tone. This particular lipstick is a dusty rose with cool cocoa undertones, which allows more a natural appearance enabling it to be applied easily without too much fuss! It's a pleasant smelling product, almost reminds me of a sweet gummy bear scent, coverage lasts around 3-4 hours not quite the advertised 8 hours; but for around £5 you can't complain! 

Number 05


     
The second lipstick I purchased was number 05 this is my all time favourite! A warm fuchsia with a slight pigment of red, it's a terrific matte lipstick that like number 08 lasts around 3-4hours and also smells of pure childhood goodness! 

100% recommend this cheap drugstore lipstick! 

Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Radiance Colour Blush

 
 
      

Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Radiance Colour blush is a product that I've never used but looked so elegant and Devine I caved in! It is quite costly at £26 in store from Boots, but through some internet browsing it is available for cheaper in other high street stores. When applying it does glide onto the apples of your cheeks with ease and grace, a brush is provided but I personally find a Real Techniques Blush brush works perfectly! The colour of the blush is Romantic Rose, which is a soft pink that holds flecks of gold glitter that make it that more divine!

Wonder'Full Mascara With Argan Oil

There has been a massive hype around this mascara and I wanted to discover whether it was for the product or because Miss Jagger was the face!


The main feature of the product is the fact that it contains Argan Oil or as it's known in the beauty world 'Liquid Gold'! 


There's nothing more satisfying than unwrapping a new glossy mascara, popping open that new brush from the mascaras container and admiring how clean and fresh it looks! I can't be the only one who loves that?!


When using the brush for the first time it had its up's and down's, I must admit I'm not a fan of the brush head although it's flexible I found the wide shape didn't allow my lashes to get the full coverage; apart from that the actual mascara formula was delightful! It went on with real ease and lasted for a long period of time.


I've used the product for a week and found it to be a light mascara that stays well put throughout the day, it was easy to remove with a wipe and the Argan oil left my lashes quite soft to the touch...

Overall it's a nice nourishing formula for a high street mascara but the brush shape was a let down for me...
