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.

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!

Makeup Revolution 'Newtrals VS Neutrals' Palette

Makeup Revolution Newtrals vs Neutrals Palette
Hello everyone! 
Happy Sunday!

If you saw my  tweet, you'll know I've done a lot of beauty shopping recently so I'll be doing some reviews here on the blog.  I made a MakeUp  Revolution   order, purely because I couldn't get what I wanted in my Superdrug as it's a bit lacking!  I bought the Oil Control Setting Spray (£5), the  New-Trals vs Neutrals palette (£6.99) that  I had been eager to get my hands on and a couple of new eye brushes; the E101 and the E103 (£1.99 each). Read on to  see what I think of them.

GOSH Forever Eye Shadow Crayons

GOSH Forever Eye Shadow Crayons
Hello everyone!
Happy Sunday.
My GOSH Forever Eye Shadow stick soon became a staple while I was on holiday. I've had it for months but threw it into my make up bag last minute and I'm so glad I did.
Today I'm going to talk about all the things I love about my little eyeshadow stick because I think it's fab and feel that everyone should know about them (although you probably already do!)

Make Up Revolution Awesome Metals Foil Finish Eyeshadow | Review

Make Up Revolution Awesome Metals Foil Finish Eyeshadow
Hello Everyone!
Happy Sunday to you!
I wasn't sure what to blog about today. I've bought a few bits from e.l.f recently, so I'm sure I'll do a haul about it soon, but both my last posts have been haul types. I also have a wordy/talky post I want to do but I want to put lots of thought into that one. 
So I thought I'd talk to you about the Make Up Revolution Awesome Metals Foil Finish Eyeshadows. That's a huuuuuge name. 
I have the colour Rose Gold and they cost £4 each.

Everyday Make Up Essentials

Everyday Make Up Essentials
Hello Everyone!

As usual, I'm going to start with an apology:
Sorry I didn't post last Sunday, I had my job induction all day Thursday and then they wanted me to work 9-5 on Friday and 9-6 on Saturday so by Sunday I was a) absolutely shattered and b) totally unprepared to do a blog post. 
I am prepared this week though! 
Since I've become an adult and go to work each day, I needed to find a make up look that was easy, and professional but still pretty, so here are the products that I use to create that look. 
Basically this is my 'holy grail' every day products!
