Bourjois Liquid Eyeshadow....

I bought this product quite a while ago...... maybe 4 months ago. I was looking around my local boots store and spotted this, I instantly loved the colour and thought it looked really pretty so I decided to try it out.

The product I am talking about is the Bourjois Liquid Eyeshadow (shimmering shine) in 33 Beige Metallique. I currently have no paintpots or primers for eyeshadows :( so i thought I could use this as a base for my eyeshadows...... Suprisingly enough it works quite well.

I applied this in the morning and added Macs All that Glitters over my lid. It stayed on all day, the consistency is very liquidy and I would definately recommend using a brush to blend this product in as it's very shimmery so you don't want it all over your fingers!

It comes in a small 8.5 ml tub with an appliactor brush to place the product on your lid!

If you really don't like shimmery bases/eyeshadows stay away from this . The only problem with this product is it dries really fast so you need to blend quickly as with most bases!

All in all, it's a good product, they have quite a few colours to choose from and I think I would purchase this again.






























Just my natural lashes and the liquid eyeshadow









Liquid eyeshadow, All that Glitters and No7 Lash 360 Mascara









Sorry for the unplucked eyebrows.... Need to do them!

I think the base makes All that Glitters come out a slightly stronger colour!

New Shoes :)

Hey my Lovely Bloggers

Hope you are all well!

Okay so I ordered 2 pairs of shoes online from Aldo and they finally arrived. Yay.

The first pair I got are these beautiful gladiator sandals. They are a light cream/beige colour with studs along the straps and 2 big jewels on the front (they sound tacky, but they are lush and I love them.) These are perfect for summer, I may even get some more. :)















































The second pair I got are some black peep toe heels, they are suede and have a 4.5 inch heel. I feel so tall when I tried them on. The detailing round the toe is beautiful and quite a classic style as you can see in the photo! Every girl needs a good pair of black heels!

These were both in the sale, the first pair was $23 and the second pair were $26. Such a bargain.

Go check out www.aldoshoes.com as they are having major sales at the moment....like 50% off!

Summer Days..... FOTD/HOTD

Ok so as it's been really HOT here in Canada lately.

Revlon Colourstay Concealer in Light
On A Mission Beauty Powder Blush


Eyes:
No7 Lash 360 Mascara in Black
Gosh Velvet Touch Eyeliner in Bananas

I liked this hairstyle. it's kind of Lauren Conrad inspired but slightly messier! Hehe...

I Heart O.P.I

Anyone else share my love for O.P.I Nail Polishes. I ordered some about 2 weeks ago and they finally arrived. Yay!

So I ordered them from a site called Spa Boutique (www.spaboutique.ca). They are a Canadian based company that sells cosmetics from Make up to Sunscreen. They tend to sell high end brands like Youngblood, Guinot and loads more.

So here's what I got from O.P.I:

Teal the Cows Come Home
Modern Girl
Pink Of Hearts 2

Brights Mini Pack :
A Grape Fit
Shorts Story
Rapi Dry Top Coat

Style Warrior....

So for the past couple of days I have been using the 2 products I got from the Style Warrior Collection and I really like them.

So I got the Gold Rebel Lipglass and the On a Mission Beauty Powder Blush (If you didnt already know) 






























































On a Mission BPB: 

So when I first looked at the colour in the pan I thought it's such a pretty colour, but I was pretty excited and kinda nervous to try it out as it does look quite dark in the pan. Boy was I wrong. This BPB is lovely...... It gives a really nice glow to my skin and brightens up my face. It's not too dark at all, it actually comes out really nice on the skin.

The BPB stays on all day without any touch ups and this product is gonna last forever. The blush is a plum colour with a slight shimmer in, I would say it has gold and pink reflects in it.

I highly recommend you get this, I reckon it will suit most skin tones. I never thought this blush would suit me but since I have been wearing it I have had quite a few compliments.

Have an awesome Thursday night guys.




Naked Honey Collection :)

Guess what? ........ A new Mac collection is here.

Yes this is The Naked Honey Collection, it came out today (on the 11th of June at US and Canadian stores)

I'm loving the Highlight powders! :)

Here's the pics...















Creme De Miel Eyeshadow













Pollinater Eyeshadow














Buckwheat Eyeshadow ( This reminds me of Tempting but a tad darker)




















She's a Star Lipglass

















Queen Bee Lipglass









Buzz Lipglass










Golden Nectar Highlight Powder









Honey Light Highlight Powder



With this collection they have also released a moisturiser, a body wash, a salve and 2 perfumes!



The Highlight Powders are gorgeous, they have a shimmery surface, this is only on one layer as it is an overspray so once you get passed the top layer, you are left with the colour added with a small amount of shimmer.

I will definately be getting the Golden Nectar Highlight Powder, I will be using this as a bronzer as it's not too dark for my skintone (NC15/20) Paleeeeeeee I know...hehe.!


What will you be getting?

A Nude Lip....

I never used to be a lipstick kinda girl but lately I'm loving a bit of a nude lip. My fave is Creme de Nude by Mac. I also want Gosh's 134: Darling but don't know whether to pay $15 for it considering it's £4-£5 in Uk! AHHHH The Troubles.......



























Pouting....


















If anyone finds a nice nude lipstick....please tell me!

A Shopping Haul & Mac....

Hey Guys

So yesterday I went shopping along the main highstreet. It was a lovely sunny day, a perfect day to hit the shops!

So i bought some clothes and yessssssssss I popped into the beloved Mac to have a look at the Style Warrior Collection (I'm quite late with this collection, came out weeks ago and here I am looking at it now!) I'm quite liking the sound of the Naked Honey Collection coming next week! Yay!

I only got two things from this collection but I love them and may even buy some more as I love
 the packaging!

So onto the pics.

I bought these in H&M

On A Mission Beauty Powder Blush - I'm starting to really like coral and plum shades. 
I Imagine this would give you a nice glow!
















I also got Gold Rebel Lipglass - I love the gold bronze sheen it adds to your lips.
