I Heart Revolution, Revolution Surprise Egg Gold

I Heart Revolution, Revolution Surprise Egg Gold

Hello Beauty Lovers!
I was making a Superdrug order the other day when I scrolled past this gold egg... with Easter just around the corner, have you thought of giving something a bit different to chocolate this year?

I Heart Revolution, Revolution Surprise Egg Gold Eyeshadow and Highlighter Palette

This gold egg is actually an eyeshadow and highlighter palette! (here) It contains 5 eyeshadows; 2 shimmers and 3 mattes, and 2 highlighter shades which also work well as eyeshadows. The best bit? it's only £5. It's from the I Heart Revolution brand and they come in 6 different styles. It's also 3 for 2 on I Heart Revolution Eggs online at Superdrug at the moments so now's a good time to snap some up for yourself, or to give as gifts!

As you can see from the swatches, the pigmentation is incredible; the shimmers are really lovely and the mattes have good colour payoff. There is a bit of kickback in the pan but not too much. They blend really nicely, and for the price, the longevity is pretty good too. The shades all work really well together so you can create a multitude of different looks with just the one palette. The matte shades work really well as crease / transition shades too. The highlighters are a bit too bright for me, but the gold makes a stunning eyeshadow. It's a cute novelty item and you're getting 7 shades for only a fiver, which I think is a pretty fab deal.

Highlighters: 1 icy purple and 1 white pearl

They're all so fun! On the Tam Beauty website they sell the other 2 in the collection which are: Angel (pale pinks) and Mermaid (bluey greens and a gold) which both look insane! I'm starting to think I need all 6... or maybe just Unicorn and Mermaid?

What do you think of these? Will you be asking for one for Easter, giving them as gifts or just treating yourself to one (or six!). Let me know in the comments!

My 3 Favourite Mascaras

Maybelline Lash Sensational, L'Oreal Miss Baby Roll, YSL The Shock

Hello Beauty Lovers!
If there's one beauty product that I love the most - it's mascara. I have probably tried at least 100 over my make up wearing life, so at this point, I feel like I have some idea of what a good mascara is. Today I'm going to tell you about my 3 favourite mascaras at the moment. No prizes for guessing what the first one is...

B. Effective Stubborn Makeup Remover

B. Effective Stubborn Makeup Remover

Hello Beauty Lovers!
Happy Valentines Day ♡

I got a bit stuck in a rut with my make up remover and was looking to try something new, this was on offer at Superdrug and caught my eye. I got a mini sample of the YSL Expert Makeup Remover for Eyes and Lips at Christmas and I was really impressed with it! It's very pricey though so I was on the hunt for a cheaper alternative; enter B. Effective Stubborn Makeup Remover.

10 Under £10

Makeup Revolution Fortune Favours the Brave eyeshadow palette, Maybelline Lash Sensational Primer, Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara, Maybelline Gel Eyeliner, Elf Mineral Infused Face Primer, Makeup Revolution Blush, Gerard Cosmetics Lip Pencil, Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick, GOSH Velvet Touch Lipstick, GOSH Forever Eye Shadow Crayon

Hello Beauty Lovers!
I've seen some other bloggers do this and thought it'd be quite fun. A lot of the make up that gets featured on Instagram and beauty blogs tends to be the higher end, more expensive products, but some cheaper make up is just as good as high end make up and deserves a little more attention. A lot of the make up I use everyday is from the high street/drugstore and is under £10.
