technic eyelashes.

the technic eyelashes

I've always been a huge fan of fake eye lashes ever since I discovered they make my tiny little eyes look a lot bigger and defined, you see my eyes with out eyelashes are the tiniest things, the curse of the small faces.
 
usually I wear the eylure lashes as they do a pair of lashes called petite which fit absolutely perfect on people with smaller eyes, or the even the Nadine girls aloud ones as they make the lashes look longer on tiny eyes.
 
A few weeks ago I went into a store called savers (for those who don't know savers is a discount store located in England all around the country) and they had a pair of eyelashes in there that was absolutely amazing they fit so perfectly on my eyes, they wasn't itchy, they was just amazing, but silly me didn't save the packet, as I have a eyelash box to hold them, so when I left them at my parents house when I went to visit I couldn't remember what they was called to buy a new pair.
I went into a store called body care its very similar to savers, and hey had a few lashes in the store so I thought oh why not you cant really go wrong for £1.00 and £1.79.

*all of my photos are my own and all my eyelashes are on my own eyes with no makeup*
 
technic fancy lashes £1.00 //  Original starting price £2.99
 
 
the technic eyelashes come in a large white box and blue writing, these eyelashes are made with a black strip which I personally would apply black eyeliner on my eye before applying my lashes also I would apply my mascara before placing they eyelashes on my eyes, this just stops the eyelashes becoming clumpy and it makes them last a lot longer.
now im more use to having more real feeling eyelashes as I find that plastic ones irritate my eyes a great amount.
they look beautiful on, but for something called fancy lashes and they don't look very fancy they look a lot more natural to me.
 
 
technic natural lashes £1.79 // Original starting price £2.99

these eye lashes are called natural, they look absolutely stunning on as you can seen in the  image above.
these eyelashes have a clear band as you can see so you haven't got to apply eyeliner if you don't wish to but I would suggest applying mascara so you can blend the natural lashes with the fake ones.
in my personal thoughts I would have had these lashes as the fancy ones as they are very dramatic and large and just look more glamorous compared to the fancy lashes which look more natural.

The primanary advent calender week one

In December everyone has a advent calender, but this year I was rather sick at the end of November, so I didn't have a chance to get the one I wanted, I originally wanted the no7 by boots, or the benefit one but sadly i couldn't get my hands on one being so ill, so I brought the primark 24 days of jewellery.
this is a weekly post to show what I got in my calendar.

I first saw this on the primark website and though "ooo that's pretty cool" so when I went in store I just had to buy one, the original price on this was £10.00 but as I got my on the second of December it was reduced to 5 pound.

so here's what i received in my primark 24 days of jewellery calendar first week. 

Day 1&2 
Day 1. I received a set of swallow silver earrings they aren't to big and look beautiful when on. 
Day2. I received a set of gold out lined heart earrings, these are rather large and as i have my ear stretched i don't think i could wear them. 


Day 3&4
 
 
Day 3. I received a pair of gold lock and key earrings but unfortunately these are once again rather large.  Day 4. I received a middi silver ring this is absolutely stunning it is such a nice design.

make up revolution birthday haul

(warning contains loads of pictures and swatches on my arms, also tattoos)
 this is not a review (review to come soon) this is a birthday haul
 
when I saw a few reviews on make-up revolution I thought this make up brand looks amazing and I decided to get my little bum down to Superdrug and have a look at there awesome collection, when i went to Superdrug though it was actually a lot harder then I thought to get a hold of the product as not every Superdrug store actually stocks the brand.
 
after i visted about 5 different stores i finally found 2 stores that stock Make-up revolution, YES YES i know i could of ordered them online and picked them up in store or even had them delivered, but im the type of person (when trying a new brand) who likes to look and actually decided if i like the colour as things online always look different in person.
 
 
the items i brought are
box set #1 contour kit £10.00
when I saw the box set #1 contour kit I knew I had to have it this kit is amazing in every way, I've always had great difficulty finding a kit that works great for my skin type, when I was in superdrug I had picked up a few makeup brushes and a contouring kit and as it being so close to Christmas I thought i'd go take a look at the box sets they always do at Christmas and I saw this and it just jumped out at me I had heard so much about how good the contour kit was from other peoples reviews and I thought why not its £10.00 you cant go wrong with it.
this kit contains a large bronzer, a little bronzer, blusher, highlighter and a 3 piece brush set.
(review to come soon)
 
box set #2 eye set £12.50

when I saw this kit I thought wow 12.50 that is incredibly cheap and looks absolutely beautiful, I was going to be buying the eye shadow pallet anyway as I heard there a good company for dupe eye shadow of larger more expensive brands. (other peoples views) and when I saw the kit it was a lot better value for money buying the kit rather then buying everything separately and from what I can see from the swatches I've done the eye shadow is incredibly pigmented which is great as you always what your eye shadow on show, also the lip gloss is beautifully bright and shinny.
 this kit contains  a black liquid eyeliner, a pencil liner, a glitter eyeliner, a mirror, 3 lip gloss, 3 nail polishes and a 12 shade eye shadow palate and also a contour pallet 3 piece (same as above picture) .
 
 cover and conceal palette shade light £6.00
a friend of mine brought the cover and conceal pallet and she absolutely adored it, she suggested it to me as I suffer with terrible bags under my eyes and have always struggled to be able to cover them
up, i've used this once and I can happily say WOW it worked incredibly.
light pallet containing 6 concealers.
 
 lipstick shades the one and vamp £1.00 each
I saw these 2 lipsticks and loved the colours they are adorable and perfect for the winter months.

Eyes vs winter

Who enjoys winter,? I do, but its no secret winter hates us, it ruins everything from your winter clothes and make-up e.g your hair gets thrown about, wet feet and legs, make-up such as your lips get chapped, you put blusher on and it's so cold it looks too much and worst of all your eyes you always seem to bled black from your eyes. 
It also effects day to day life such as getting to work the transport is slower, getting snowed in in certain parts of England and the weather changes the plans you made. 

'm not magic i can't think of a solution to solving the everyday problems we face during winter, however i do have a answer for the famous question all girls and some guys ask too

""What eyeliner can i use that won't run" 

How many of you can say you've asked that queation to someone before? 
Now how many times has it been confirmed?  
Well for all of you who struggle to fins a eyeliner Here's my top 5 eyeliners for winter.

1.inglot gel liner//£15.00
This product was suggested to me by a friend and wow its the most incredible product I've ever used its one of the only products to stay on my face all day and night and wake up with it still perfect. 

2. Mac gel liner//£17.00
This is like superglue, if you're looking for a eyeliner that doesn't come off (even with wipes) this is for you. Removing this eyeliner is incredibly difficult as you need the mac makeup remover for this.

3. Barry m liquid liner//£3.50
I find this to be amazing it stays completely sill all day doesn't smudge but, this product is designed for the top eye lid only so don't use on the bottom you coyld really sting you're eyes. 

4. Benefit they're real//£18.50
I adore this product at the moment its my everyday go to liner and i do apply to the bottom of my eyelids but if you are going to apply this item to the bottom lid i suggest you buy the mac paint pot. If i don't apply the paint pot before the liner i look like a clown within the hour. 

5.dolly winks//£10.00 set of 2 
Dolly winks is a asian company set up by the model Tsubasa Masuwaka 
You receive a pencil and liquid liner and i think its great you have a choice of what yo use and can discover what you believe is better 
i find the liquid liner best.

Botanics by boots

Botanics by boots 

As everyone knows big brands such as boots, Superdrugs, Sainsbury's, Tesco etc. All have something called in house branding, this is were the company create their own formula of something and sell it cheaper. etc. Tescos finest tea bags  and Superdrug have B.beauty which is a own brand makeup range which is amazing I must say you can see my B.beauty gel liner review here.

Recently I needed a make up remover and unfortunately boots store didn't have the one i normal use which is the gairner makeup remover shake to wake, so I decided I'd try out a new one and see it it turned out, the first isle I came to in the boots store was one which had there own brand products on, and I was pulled in due to the beautiful colourful packaging.


I brought the eye soothing make-up remover after about a bout 20 minutes of deciding what I wanted to try as there is loads of different things to choose from but you need to find the right skin care products for your skin type and I have chosen the pink range.

On the botanic bottle and the boots website there is a brief description on what the product does, this is always a plus as you need to know what the product is formulated of so you can choose the best type for you're skin. 

" The clear oil phase effectively sweeps away impurities and make up, including waterproof formulations"
 

Like any product there are always pros and cons and you can't really tell what they are from reading a post you need to test for your self. So here are my pros and cons (not a lot of cons)  

Pros:
Gives a beautiful soothing and soft finish.
removes all make up
Can be used all over face
packaging is a beautiful colour and size
price is great 1.99 (sale) 2.99 normal price
a range of items to work along side with.

Cons:
Leaves face feeling too oily
comes out of the bottle too fast

Key tip with this product only apply a small amount as there isn't a pump it just slides right out the bottle and makes the pad very wet and greasy this cause the make up to spread around your face instead of being removed.

Mini Lipstick haul

The lipstick haul 

Its no surprise that like most girls I'm addicted to lipstick. i own alot and will never stop loving it, to me lipstick isn't just another peice of makeup it's a statement it can show off plenty of differences in personalits and different sides to a person 'e.g' nice, naughty, flirty, smart. 

recently I've been on the hunt for the mac Kylie jenner lipstick 'as seen below', but i am not a fan of the mac lipsticks don't get me wrong mac is incredible but I prefer matte lipsticks that will last at least 7 hours and i find that mac on me personally either smudges off or wares off.

here are the lipsticks I've picked up looking for the perfect kylie jenner dupe 
and some was just too lovely to say no to you can never own to many lipsticks.
(Brief explanation below)

Lipstick one//mua//peachy keen 
Lipstick two//mua 
For ťhose who don't know MUA or make up academy is a super cheap make up brand sold in superdrug only, the prices for this vary, these lipsticks was one pound each,  fir a pound you dont expect much but i can honestly say  these are a true matte finish make up brand. 


Lipstick three//revolution//the one
Makeup revolution is a new make up brand only recently been sold in superdrugs in a few of the stores, for a while i thought they only sold eye shadow but when i went and had a look i found out the also sell other makeup products such as this beautiful matte lipstick.

Lipstick four//barry m//165
Lipstick five//barry m
Barrym has always been a amazing product which I've loved for years, the brand is sold is loads of different places including topshop, boots, superdrug and more.
Recently they redone the formula for the matte lipsticks which was a long awaited change.
