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?

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.

There are 4 to choose from on the Superdrug website and they are:

Rose Gold: 

Eyeshadows: 4 shimmers; pale pink, rose pink, dark rose gold and dark rose brown, plus 1 matte rose brown

Highlighters: 1 light and 1 medium rose gold 

Dragon: 

Eyeshadows: 3 shimmers; a fiery red, a gorgeous gold and a beautiful bronze, plus 2 matte brown shades

Highlighters: 1 warm and 1 cool tone

Gold:

Eyeshadows: 3 matte brown shadows; 1 light, medium and dark, plus 2 stunning shimmer browns

Highlighters: 1 yellow gold and 1 soft bronze gold

Unicorn: 
Eyeshadows: 3 shimmer purple shades; 1 light, medium and dark, plus 2 matte shades; a deep purple and mesmerising blue
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!

Crest 3D Professional Effects Whitestrips

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I tried the Crest 3D Professional Effects Whitestrips for a week and thought I'd tell you about my experience.

My Colourpop Lippie Stix Collection

Hello Beauty Lovers!

A little while ago, I wrote about my Colourpop Liquid Lipstick Collection (here) and I wore one of my Colourpop Lippie Stix the other day and was reminded of how much I like them so I thought I would share them with you today.

My 3 Favourite Mascaras

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

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.

TAM Beauty Haul

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I rediscovered my Freedom Priming Water the other day (which I love) and realised I had essentially none left. I also wanted to try the new Makeup Revolution concealer so I ended up picking up a few bits from TAM Beauty. 

StylPro Brush Cleaner | Pros & Cons

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I've had the StylPro Brush Cleaner for well over a year now, and although I like it a lot, I've noticed a few things that are not ideal.

3 High End Beauty Products Worth The Splurge

Hello Beauty Lovers! 

Last week we were talking about 10 Under £10 - 10 beauty products that are under £10 that needed a little more recognition. This week we're talking about 3 high end beauty products that are worth the splurge.

10 Under £10

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.

6 New Years Beauty Resolutions

Hello Beauty Lovers and Happy New Year!

I gave up making new years resolutions a long time ago as they're just not my thing, but I thought it might be fun to make some new years beauty resolutions as I feel they'll be more beneficial to me.

Christmas Make Up Haul

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I was very lucky to receive lots of luxury make up for Christmas, including my first YSL lipstick (Collectors Edition too). I didn't really ask for a lot this year because I already have so much stuff, it just seemed like unnecessary extras, but my mum was stressing over what to buy me so I had a look through the catalogues and my make up wishlist note on my phone and picked out a few bits.

My Carbon Coco Experience

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I was offered the chance to try the Carbon Coco Ultimate Carbon Kit*. I thought I would document my experience because when I first started I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue with it as I had a few mishaps but I persevered and I'm glad that I did.

Festive Red Lips

Hello Beauty Lovers!
It is now December and I am already super pumped for Christmas; we've already decorated our desks at work (we wasted no time by getting into the spirit on the 1st) and planned lots of festive activities. If you know me or have been following this blog for a while, you'll know that red lipstick is my favourite to wear so I thought that I would do a blog post about festive red lipsticks - t'is the season!

Colourpop Haul

Hello Beauty Lovers!

Colourpop had their free international shipping deal on, so I snapped up the chance to buy some more goodies (as if I need more).

Work OOTD Ideas

Hello Beauty Lovers! 

I work in an office and I take a lot of OOTD pics, so I thought it might be nice to incorporate them into a blog post. I have a few staple pieces that I like to wear and alternate with different tops. 

‘How Much Is My Face Worth?’

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I thought it'd be fun to do a 'How Much Is My Face Worth?' blog post as I use a mix of higher end make up and more drugstore/highstreet make up. If you're not familiar with the idea, it's just where a blogger adds up the prices of their make up products that they use on the daily and see what it totals up to. 

My Colourpop Liquid Lipstick Collection

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I've started to accumulate quite a few Colourpop Liquid Lipsticks and so I thought I'd document them with a few swatches too. Some of them are so well loved that the labels have worn off from living in my handbag.

Maybelline Lash Sensational Primer

Hello Beauty Lovers!

I've been using this Maybelline Lash Sensational Primer everyday for a while now and I'm really impressed with it - from first use I knew I wanted to blog about it. 

The £1 Blush I Can't Live Without

Hi Beauty Lovers!

I've been loving this blush for a long time now and thought it was about time I shared the love.

I find Makeup Revolution a little bit hit and miss (understandable when it is so cheap) but they certainly know how to do a good blush.

My Forever Repurchase List

Hello Beauty Lovers!
If you're not new to the blog, you've probably heard me rattle on about these products before, but there's a couple of new products that I have added to the 'Forever Repurchase' list and wanted to rattle on some more about them.
