There has been hype around these Makeup Revolution concealers for a while now. If you haven’t heard about them, where have you been!? I was a little late to join the bandwagon, only picking up my first of these a couple of months ago. Since then I’ve developed a sort of love-hate relationship with them and they fall in and out of my makeup bag … Continue reading Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Concealers
I love the L’oreal True Match foundation so thought I would give the concealer a go. This is a great drug-store option if you are looking for a good concealer on a budget. I would say the formula is comparable to the Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer which is one of my all-time favourites, so not bad for £6.99! Shade Selection One serious drawback to … Continue reading L’Oreal Perfect Match Perfecting Concealer
A key to any makeup look is a flawless base. That means that the last thing you want is foundation flaking off as you’re trying to apply it.

I feel like drugstore brands are really stepping up their game when it comes to foundations. Barry M is definitely one of these brands.

I was sold on the fact that it is oil-free and hydrating – an ideal formula for my combination to oily skin. I have … Continue reading Barry M Flawless Matte Finish Foundation
I love Tanya Burr, so that fact that it took me this long to try anything from her makeup range is shocking form. To be honest though, nothing had caught my attention until she came out with her newest range; ‘Glow your Own Way’.

I don’t know what I would do without beauty sponges. They make applying and blending product out so easy and don’t leave the brush strokes that some brushes can. However, they are something that definitely need to be replaced after a couple of months. No matter how much you wash them they aren’t going to last forever. With that in mind, I set out to … Continue reading Primark Blender Sponges
