Home Bargains: Mini haul and product review March 2018

Hey to everyone reading! I recently went to home bargains and picked up a few bits and thought I would do a haul and review of what I did get. Also, I'm dying to go back and get all of the mermaid stuff! Home bargains is a go to shop for a lot of people, me included, they do loads of beauty stuff at cheaper prices as well dainty things that you can't resist. Unfortunately I'm rubbish and only remember the prices of some of the things but they were all cheap! So here goes... Firstly, I picked up these shampoo and conditioner for 99p each, Bargain! I've not heard much about this brand anovia but I have seen it in a few of the cheaper shops. I'm really fussy when it comes to shampoo and conditioner, I don't know whether it's because I have blue/black hair or what but whaever I use my hair goes greasy after like 2 hours or washing!  There are only two brands I've used that help with this, one being tresemme. I can use any of their shampo...

Fenty Beauty - Mattemoiselle thoughts x3

It was recently my 21st birthday woohoooo! Even better Nathan got me two of the Fenty Beauty Mattemoiselle plush matte lipticks and his mam also got me one, woooow!  What I can say about them... I am so in love I want them all, even the shades that might not suit me I can give them a go haha! This is three shades swatched. The FB imprint came off straight away after my first try so I'm hoping that they last longer than I can imagine.   My skin is quite pale so you can get an idea of what they would look like if you also have pale skin.   So, putting them on...I started will a totally bare lip, moisturised half an hour before with a Nivea lip balm.  I'm so happy with them. The consistency is kind of like a paint, it covered up all the cracks in my dry lips and felt as though it was moisturising them rather than making them dryer like most matte lipsticks do. Another thing I liked was that it was easy t...

MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquer - £3 Bargain!

So, I have a collection of these MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquers and at £3 each I'm so not surprised as I love a bragain.  They are quite thick matte lip glosses yet don't dry your lips out and last a while! As with most matte lip glosses or lipsticks it's inevitable that you have to top them up a few times throughout the day. These have been my go to all year, the range of colours are amazing and I'm hoping they bring some more browny/purple shades out. Superdrug currently have a Christmas offer containing a set of 12 of the Lip Lacquers, shades;  Dash, Flair, Halcyon, Harmony, Kooky, Moxie, Reckless, Tranquility, Unity, Zest, Atlantis, Colour Enhancer as shown in the image above you also get a free bag all for £26, Bargain! (I've linked the image if you want to check it out on the Superdrug website) I tend to use the MUA glosses as a lip liner or to fill the outside of my lips then use a matte lisptick (usually Mac) on the inside to create an omb...

HD Brows and Maybelline Tattoo Brow

Review on my experience of High Definition (HD) Brows and the Maybelline Tattoo Brow. Love this iconic eyebrows collage how cool! I got my eyebrows HD'd earlier this year in May and thought they were fab! I only went as my sister was asking me for weeks to go with her. I think it cost £20 which I thought was a good price. I was really bad with my eyebrows and still am sometimes, I just get lazy with them but I wax them myself now (just using some mini wax strips from Tesco) which is quicker than plucking alone. I got them done by instagram - @lmebrows  who lives locally to me and you just go to her house to get them done. This is what they looked like straight after.  And then the top picture is one I took when I got home and the bottom picture is the next day. They were amazing and I know you are meant to go back every 4 weeks or so to keep the colour and shape but I just didn't get chance to go back but I would really recommend HD brows to anyone who hasn...

NYX Vivid Brights: Show off with bright eyes!

Hey my loves! Thoughts on the NYX Cosmetics Vivid Brights Eyeliner range? NYX Cosmetics are my favourite for Metallic lip-glosses  and B right Eyeliners . For UK readers, I got mine online on either ASOS or Boots. The vivid brights eyeliners come in 6 shades (on ASOS) and cost £5.50 each. The metallic lipglosses come in 15 shades (on ASOS) and cost £7 each, bargain right?!  The brushes on the eyeliners make it so easy to draw a good flick and precise for those of us that think winged eyeliner is a no go. I think they look fabulous with or without eye shadow as the colours are bold.   Violet shade with subtle eyeshadow.  Fire shade with red lips - you could even use this with glitter to give Christmassy look. Shades Petal and Violet blended together - The eyeliners blend really well to make an ombré winged liner look. I'm so glad my sister bought me one of these to start my obsession. They are so amazing and give you so ...
