THE BALM NUDE TUDE PALETTE REVIEW AND SWATCHES!

 
I feel like I have not blogged in a long long time. I have been super busy and have returned to the UK finally.

WOOHOO!! So here is today's post.



I have been eyeing this baby up for the longest time and finally got it about a fortnight ago. It is so so gorgeous. This palette has a variety of finishes from matte, frost to satin. The packaging is thick cardboard but quite durable. I don't think anything would break if it dropped to the floor.






In the last picture there is an additional picture of SILLY applied wet. These shadows are soft, buttery and amazingly pigmented. They can be a touch powdery but that's not too much of a problem given the pigmentation.

Apart from Silly being the problem eyeshadow a little MAC Fix + can fix that issue (get the joke?).  I cannot recommend this palette enough.


I nearly forgot to mention the primer sample you get. It is a gel type consistency which I'm not sure I like but I'll keep giving it a go. The brush included is ok but I just use my Real Techniques one regardles.

Overall I give this palette a 9/10 it is stunning. I took one mark away for Silly even though it's a shadow I can work with. I have used it with several primers and alone and the shadows last all day. This palette is £30 on ASOS.com.

Have a wonderful day and don't forget to smile :D

Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms | JanBlog #20

Image
Hey guys, Well I ran out this morning to grab the new Revlon Colorburst Balms as I have seen them on every American YouTube video and blog so I needed one at least, or them all. Now they had the 'Just Bitten Kissable', 'Lacquer Balms' and 'Matte Balm' in stock, for now. They seemed to be going fast. I really didn't like any of the others and my hand was full of swatches. Sometimes I just get very focused on particular shades, like today. I have this bad habit of going for bright pinks and deep reds lately and everything I buy lip wise lately is cool toned haha. How pretty do they look? I got 'Standout' which is the deep red and 'Showy' which is the vibrant pink. Both cool toned hehe. They seem to be exclusive to Boots at the moment but are on their website, click here. They retail for £7.99 and are excluded from any offer going on at the moment. They have a wide range of colours in all versions of the balm. A

My Acne Story | LUSH Grease Lightning

Image
Hello loves,  Well I have a different kind of post today. It is about my acne and a product I tested to try help it out.  I mentioned this in my Top 5 LUSH products post just this week. It is one of a kind. I am about to share some rather honest pictures so look away if you're easily offended.  My skin is oily in the t-zone area and can be dry elsewhere. It is also quite sensitive and I have redness on my jawline that can sometimes be quite visible. I use to have acne prone skin when I was a teenager and into my early 20's.  I will link to the LUSH website where you can see ingredients etc at the end.  I had noticed several blackheads on my face and really didn't want them to sit there and become worse so I decided to try this product. It straight away smells like Witch Hazel and Tea Tree which I like, it's an almost clean smell. It feels like a gel and as it dries you can feel it tighten over the designated area. This disappears when yo

Collection Does It All 5in1 Mascara

Image
Hey. Well the other week I saw Shaaanxo instagram a picture of her lashes using a Collection mascara. I thought wow that's pretty impressive for a product under £5. This mascara claims to curl, volumise, lengthen, condition and that it's long wearing. I can tell you now this is all true. I have been testing this for about a month now and it is seriously impressive.  I am terribly fussy with mascaras. I don't tend to like the massive wands with tonnes of bristles sticking every which way. It was very surprising to me that I love this mascara. The wand is very comparable to Maybelline 'The Rocket' and Benefit 'They're Real'. When I tried Maybelline's 'The Rocket' I was constantly poking myself in the eye or mascara would go all over my eye lid. I didn't find that it did a whole lot for my eyelashes. This beauty is £4.99 in Boots or Super Drug and sometimes they have it on offer for £4. I genuinely love this
