Freedom Makeup Haul, Review and Swatches! ♡

 After hearing that one of my favourite drugstore brands, (Makeup Revolution) created a sister company called 'Freedom Makeup' i was ridiculously excited! Makeup Revolution cosmetics make me happy. They are so affordable, and have some amazing dupes for popular high end products. I had a little nosey round the Freedom Makeup site on Black Friday and made a couple of purchases.

Freedom Makeup - PRO STUDIO Priming Water (usually £6 was £3 on Black Friday)

After having no success with spray on primers ever, and about 100 breakouts from them i was curious to try this one! This one can be used as a primer to create a base for your makeup or on the top of your makeup as a type of setting spray.

This lightweight water spray comes out the bottle effectively and i usually use around 3-4 sprays across my face. It dries really quickly allowing me to get on with the rest of my makeup! I have found it is nice and hydrating for my dry skin and honestly does leave a nice base for the rest of my makeup. My foundation definitely goes on smoother after using this spray. The only downside of this however is the smell. I think it smells quite similar to what i imagine toilet water to smell like yuckkkkk, however the product is really good and i will continue to use and repurchase!

Freedom Makeup - PRO Melts Lipgloss (Jammy Dodger) £3

When i ordered this it was purely for fun! I'm a nude lips girl and always will be, but as i'm trying to be a little more adventurous makeup wise and this was only £3 i thought why not!

The lipgloss goes on ever so smoothly. It is nowhere near as glossy and sticky as a gloss but gives a nice creamy sheen on the lips. The gloss is very opaque and creates a full lip coverage. I was so happy with the texture and smoothness of this lipgloss, it's gorgeous! It also lasts nicely and once dry doesn't leave you with horrible smudge marks. I was 10000% be ordering more of these in other colours (nude) soon.

Freedom Makeup - House of Glam Dolls 'Fairy Doll' Palette £8

Freedom makeup have currently teamed up with House of Glam Dolls to create 4 versatile palettes containing eyebrow powders, eyeshadows, highlight shades, a blush a contour colour and lipglosses. For £8 this is so worth the money!

I picked the Fairy Doll Palette purely for the gorgeous bright shadows! All of the eyeshadows apply really nicely to the lids and can be made even bolder by using a fixing spray on a brush when applied.

Here are the swatches for this palette (excuse the quality, Britain's weather does not want to play nicely with my camera and swatches)

Eyebrow Powders, Brunette, Bark, Mischief and Ebony. 

Highlight Colours, Starlight, Light and Haze.

This is currently rivaling my Mary Lou! So beautiful

Eyeshadows, Cloud, Magic, Petal and Glade.

Eyeshadows, Sorcery and Bloom.

Eyeshadows, Pure, Fantasy, Ash and Jet.

Contour and Blush, Nature and Flutter.

Lipglosses (difficult to capture!) Spell, Believe, Enchant and Wicked

Maybelline + MAC Little Haul!

After a couple of recent shopping trips i noticed i had picked up almost all Maybelline products! Here are the reviews of them so far!

MAYBELLINE BROW DRAMA - Medium Brown £6.99
After seeing this product everywhere, i thought i'd try it out myself. I have over-plucked brows that are suprisingly long even with the sparse amount of hairs. This product is a coloured mascara and comes in various shades. It features a rounded brush on the end, making it great at grabbing each individual hair. This brow mascara completely changes the look of brows and it's unbelievably easy. The mascara thickens the appearance of the brow hairs by using fibres, very similar to the 3D mascaras. It honestly makes my brows so much fuller and coloured, when using this i don't need to use any other brow product at all! It fills all my eyebrow gaps and lasts all day without budging. A bonus is that this dries nice and smooth without leaving that crisp feeling alot of brow mascaras do.

MAYBELLINE FIT ME BRONZER - 100'S £4.99
I picked this product up at my local Keri-Anns discounted makeup store. I have spent so long looking for the perfect matte bronzer without any shimmer for my pale skin i know that is ridiculously picky. I picked this one up as i had never actually seen it sold anywhere else before. It has a powdery texture and lasts all day. The only colour available was 100. In the packaging it looked the perfect brown toned contour colour but when removed from the packaging it looks alot more orange, almost like a face powder. The product feels soft on the skin and even though i wish i had a darker shade, for £4.99 the quality isn't bad. It is really nice for contouring, however i'm not sure if i will be able to re-use on my skin as it's just slightly too orange. The package contains a bronzer, mirror and small thin brush which is actually really great for cheekbones.

MAC LIPSTICK - Viva Glam II, £15.50 (+ free false lash extreme black mascara)
I am so happy with this MAC purchase, that i'm seriously contemplating going and buying another incase this lipstick ever becomes discontinued. It is another nude lipstick typical me to add to my ever growing nude collection. This nude is slightly brown toned, and would look perfect on all skin tones! I would describe this colour as a lighter, less in your face Kylie Jenner lip. This is why i love it, it's subtle enough so you don't have people staring at your lips as you walk down the street yet it defines lips and adds a pretty nude effect to them. This lipstick is a satin, and lasts a good 4 hours without eating/drinking.

With my lipstick purchase i got a free sample of MAC's false lash extreme black mascara. This mascara is lovely, it's fairly thick and definitely lengthens and lifts the lashes. I'm not sure if i would purchase this myself as i already have a few mascaras that create the same effect (Younique 3D Mascara and Rimmel Scandal Eyes Mascara)

I hope you enjoyed this post! There are a couple of makeup tutorial posts coming up soon plus a haircare post! Also, let me know if you have found the perfect drugstore bronzer anywhere? I am desperate to find one that matches me perfectly! Chloe :)
