New Beauty Product Reviews July 2015!

Hello! Long time no speak. Managing two part time jobs and a blog is a lot harder than i thought, however it has given me the time to collect up some bits and bobs i will be reviewing today, enjoy!


 BOURJOIS FOUNDATION: HEALTHY MIX - £10.99
I'm going to be 100% honest here, and say that this foundation has completely changed my opinion on all foundations i have ever tried in my life. This is honestly amazing! I thought my previous Rimmel Wake me Up / Loreal Infallible foundation were really good foundations but now i have tried this it knocks all of the old ones off the charts! This foundation feels nice and light on the skin and leaves a gorgeous dewy finish without looking remotely shiny. The colour i have (no 52 vanilla) matches my very pale skin nicely. It lasts all day without a primer and as the bottle says, it actually does leave my skin feeling hydrated. If you are looking to buy a new foundation, please try this one out!


 ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS - WATERPROOF CREME COLOUR LINER (JET) £18.00 + DIPBROW POMADE (SOFT BROWN) £15.00
I love this brand and always have done, however for me spending this much money on two products is not a usual thing, i like to try the cheaper drugstore brands first as who doesn't like saving money! However i already love the dipbrow, i previously had the colour Chocolate but as my hair lightens in the summer i went for Soft Brown this time. It's lovely and creamy and gives my brows that extra oomph they need whilst they are still after 5 months growing out.

I was expecting amazing things from the liner but i'm still a little unsure. I do use it every day as it is so much better than any i already own, but it has a few cons in itself. The formula is so dry that you have to apply it very quickly and often looks dry towards the end of the day. Now i can deal with this, as unlike other gel liners this one doesn't flake off at all. It is nice and light and does not smudge onto my upper eyelids at all! It does last a long time too, sometimes i sleep in my makeup by mistake and wake up with perfect winged liner the next day!



JOHN FREIDA GO BLONDER SHAMPOO - £5.99
My hair is a browny/blondey gold colour with year old blonde highlights at the bottom. This shampoo smells nice and cleans my hair well. It does gradually brighten highlights if used consistently for a few weeks but doesn't make major changes. I will continue to use it, as it does a pretty acceptable job on my way too old highlights.



EYLURE ENCHANTED LASHES - POISE £5.25
False lashes are great for special occasions and makeup looks, however the older i get, the more i move away from the thick long ones, i want to make my false lashes look as natural as possible yet still give off a gorgeous finish. These lashes by Eylure are perfect! The enchanted collection is sadly limited edition and i might have to stock up as they are so beautiful and pretty. The poise lashes are nice and light on the eye with an invisible band for a natural finish. They are not too long, or thick yet are nice and full giving the lots-of-lashes effect! I love these so much and will definitely buy some more.



SEVENTEEN INSTANT GLOW CREAM BRONZER - £4.99
My hunt for an amazing bronzer is still ongoing after months and months and months. I picked up this sweet looking bronzer from boots and had high hopes! However as for the colour, it looks great in the pan but orange on the face. The texture is actually lovely and when mixed with a powder bronzer, can be worn. It is not great though and i felt ever so disappointed. Bronzer's are the bane of my life!



BARRY M FINE GLITTER DUST £4.50
I recently went too a nice fancy party where i could have so much fun with my makeup and glam it up to the extreme. The theme of the party was 'glitz and glam' so glitter eyeshadow was the way forward. I was so excited to use this, as i don't really have much experience with loose pigments. It got to the day and as i looked at the label too see the name (gold iridescent) i saw in tiny writing 'not to be used around the eyes' but i thought forget that and was a rebel and used it anyway. Even though its messy this colour is gorgeous! It doesn't feel to rough and lasts all night without hardly any fall out. I am very impressed with this eyeshadow even though it isn't actually meant for eyes.


 Thanks so much for reading and sorry for the absence! I have missed this alot, Chloe :)
