Collection 2000 cream puff moisturising lip cream review


So this is first impressions review, not exactly first impressions as I have had this lip product for a couple of days but this is how I am going to do this review first of all here as you can see is a picture of the product and a swatch on my hand now I am going to insert a picture of my lips without any product on then one with the lip product on and then tell you how it lasted and how I feel about it! This product is in the colour: fairy cake 3

So yeah that is the colour of my lips and its the most attractive picture ever. I know ;) XD.

So the next step was to put on the product and take a picture of it on. Bear in mind it won't look exactly the same on camera or on screen. 

So yes on camera and on screen it does not look like a massive difference in colour but it is a lot brighter in reality. Its a coral colour with orange undertones but it also has a mix between pink and red in the look of it. The first things I noticed whilst applying it were:

  • The product clings to cracks in the lips and does what is called feathering or bleeding. 
  • The wand is super soft and velvety
  • It smells and tastes like custard.

No7 eyeshadow duo review


Hey so I have had this duo for ages! shock horror! I got this for christmas last year or the year before...:/ anyway just a side note these no7 eyeshadow duo's don't have names they are just duo's without names. Another side note my finger looks TINY in the blue swatch its because its further away and its my pinky finger! (if you don't say that and don't know what they are its the tiny finger on your hand lol) anyway onto the review!
I don't know the price of this because as I said it was a gift nor do I know the availability. Especially as my auntie from Ireland gave it to me so yeah. So the pigmentation is very good and there is no fallout. The blue one is a very very pigmented eyeshadow which is unfortunate as I never wear blue eyeshadow. I love the top colour in this duo which is a rose gold/gold colour that has silver and taupe shimmer in it. I love this blended with MAC sable and in the inner corner of my eye as a highlight. The packaging is great but I wouldn't repurchase this because I don't like the blue colour so I would prefer not to waste it and just get a single eyeshadow!

Vaseline Pink Bubbly Limited Edition Lip Therapy Balm Review



So here is a review for Vaseline Pink Bubbly Limited Edition Lip Therapy Balm. I purchased this bad boy for £3.49 at boots but I am pretty sure it can be purchased at superdrug    and selfridges as well, I'm not 100% sure that it is still available as it is limited edition but I think it is. Anyway onto the review.
P.S. I have a lot of time to blog right now so I will be doing a lot of review posts on makeup/hair stuff/nail polish/ and films!

Vaseline Pink Bubbly is as I said above a limited edition product that is supposed to be themed around champagne, I got this as soon as it was available in the boots/superdrug near me (there is no selfridges here) and ended up getting it in boots, I got in October so I am honestly not sure if its still in stores, but I did see it about 1-2 weeks ago in boots but still haven't seen it at all in the superdrug here. The smell of the product is a rather uneven mix of vaseline (obviously) and grapes but the smell of grapes is very very subtle. It works just as well as any other vaseline product so its nothing special in the lip care department it is just moisturizing and good for preventing chapped lips but my one problem with vaseline is that it is quite greasy. So while doing my makeup I put this on first and then do the rest of my makeup look. This is glossy looking and has a light wash of peachy/pinky colour and looks great over lipgloss/stick I also love this when I am going very natural with my makeup for example in the last few days all I have been wearing is mascara and this balm maybe gloss or lipstick as well.

Soap and glory hand maid hand gel review!


                                                                                                                                     So if you watch my youtube videos that I do with one of my best friend Poppy then you will know that I recently got this hand gel. But as I deleted the post that I had put the link to our channel in I will say it again here the username is LiveLaughBeauty73. So look it up on the search bar on youtube for mainly beauty focused videos, but also music (not us singing about music) and other misc videos. Anyway onto the review!  

So hand maid hand gel is... strange. Let me explain why. So you know the typical abysmal hand sanitizer/gel well the smell of this hand gel is soooo much WORSE! JOKING! only if you have a weird nose. It smells soooo good! It smells almost exactly the same as soap and glory glad hair day shampoo, if you don't know what that smells like its fruity, fun and kind of floral! There are subtle notes of                orange more than any other fruit. This is a good cleansing sanitizer which is good because I just hate it when you have maybe been out and then are going to eat and you want to wash your hands, I also just use it when I feel grubby/dirty or have touched something manky. I do not have OCD but I am very paranoid about this kind of thing.

Product Rating /5: *****

p.s. I have a lot of time to blog right now so I am going to upload a lot of posts probably all make-up/ hair/ nail polish reviews! Maybe I'll even chuck in movie reviews!
