Guerlain Météorites Blossom Écrin Sourcils Eyebrow Kit Review + Swatches!

I cannot live without eyebrow products. Even if I pop to the shop I have to do my eyebrows above anything else. Looking back at old college pictures of my eyebrows has made me cautious about how they look at all times! So when it comes to eyebrow products I like to mix and match and see what is out there.

So being a big Guerlain fan, I bought their Ecrin Scourcils Eyebrow Kit in a heartbeat. 

It contains 4 shades, 3 brow and 1 highlight, with a small thin angled brush and brow brush. It also includes a large mirror, which is fantastic because it is not a small dainty mirror where you have to struggle to move your hand and still see.

Time trialed: 1 Month.

Price: £31.50

Pixi Flawless Finishing Powder Review!

I think once or twice a month I will do a review of a Pixi by Petra / Pixi Beauty review. I literally own the majority of their collection, this is due to me being a makeup artist in their Cardiff counter in Boots from 2011 - 2012 when they sadly got discontinued, but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of working for such a loving brand. I loved their products and I still continue to purchase their makeup now! These reviews will be absolutely my own opinion, as these products are mostly repurchases of ones I had been given at my time at Pixi, or purchased after they were pulled from Boots directly from the Pixi store in Carnaby Street. 

Now on to the review!

Today I will be reviewing a product that is essential for the summer, which is a translucent powder. Great for topping up makeup, absorbing oil, finishing the makeup, and helping it stay on the skin longer. This finishing powder is a little special as it has some illuminating shimmery tones in it.

Time used: 3 years.
Price: £16.50

 This powder comes with a handy sponge in a secret compartment for top ups during the day.

A Guide to; University

I feel almost a little contradicting doing this post considering I'll finish university when I'm half way to 50...

But I've just finished my first year in my new course in university, and having been in university 3 years in total I think it's necessary to write what I've learnt so far, then laugh at the fact I'm probably not adhering to anything I've written.

So this is my guide to university, from a girl who's done university twice.

Read on if you'd like to see my take on how to try and get it right!

Holographic Lipgloss? Bare Minerals Hypnotist Marvelous Moxie Lipgloss Review!

The problem with my mind is if I see any thing shiny, unusual and something impractical, I will buy it. Which is why as soon as I saw this I bought it. Which is also the problem working on a makeup counter and noticing things you need from other stalls.

I have never seen a lip gloss that looks like this so naturally it's why I had to have it.

Hypnotist is a holographic lip gloss is part of the Marvelous Moxie range, and is a limited edition shade.

Price: £16
Time trialed: 1 week.

I took it out with me when I went for a walk to Roath Park the other day to show you what it looks like in true daylight.

Michael Kors Spring Summer s/s 2014 Makeup Review!

After being invited along to the Lauder blogger's event I was sent some Michael Kors makeup to test and review for my blog. This has taken a little longer to review as I have never tried out Kors products and I wanted to get a fuller view of how their products last on the skin, and I'm also at the end of my 1st year Art university course so I have been extremely busy!

I was randomly sent a bronzer, two nail polishes, a lipstick, fragrance, and lipgloss to try!

Each collection is split into three, for a day time look, mid day, and evening. I was sent a selection of each collection!

Time trialed = 1 Month
