For those of us that live outside of the US, and I'm sure that others would agree, we have been tempted and teased for a very, very, long time. My favourites Youtubers such as the likes of Jaclyn Hill (YAAASSS!) and Nicole Guerreiro casually fling the brand name around which can be rather frustrating. It never occurred to me that when they mention their special discount codes on their channel, that…
Seeing as I’ve added a fair few eyeshadows to my Makeup Geek collection since I first reviewed and declared my undying love for them here……, I thought it’s only right that I share with you some of my favourite makeup products of all time. I now have a total of 26 eyeshadows including 5 foiled eyeshadows and because there’s just so many of them, I had to split my video…
Long before I got really into makeup, I used to get frustrated with the brushes I used to apply my eyeshadow. I didn’t know the difference between a blending brush to a flat shading brush, or a pencil brush to a smudger brush. I seeked advice online but a lot of the brushes that were recommended, I found too large for my small eyes and equally small lid space.…
Spring calls for brighter colours and in this makeup tutorial, I deliver just that with peachy tones on the eyes and a vibrant reddish, coral lip, and best of all, I used (almost) all drugstore makeup to create it. I hope you like it. Products mentioned in this video: Max Factor Face Finity All Day Primer Loreal True Match Foundation in W3 Gosh Brow Kit Loreal Brow Artist Plumper Maybelline…
Whilst spring usually means, light, bright and softer shades, and sheerer and sheenier (positive that I’ve just made that word up) finishes, I’m still not quite ready to put away my matte eyeshadows. In fact, I’ve only just gone and purchased two different matte palettes; the Too Faced Natural Matte palette which I reviewed here and this one, the It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Celebration palette. It Cosmetics isn’t a…
We're way into Spring now which makes my little heart so happy. I'm definitely a Spring/Summer kind of gal and the lighter mornings and longer days always serve to lift my spirits just that little bit more, so long as it's not raining (I don't think I ask for much really!). Anyway, it's that time of month again where I spill the beans on all the beauty products that has been…
If you read my last blog post, you would have seen my review (with swatches) of the titled product, the Too Faced Natural Matte Eyeshadow palette. Its only right that I follow it up with a makeup tutorial to back up my review and to see for yourselves how they perform. As it’s a neutral palette, it of course is a neutral eyed look but I’ve gone with…
The Lorac Pro Palette is something of a Cult product in the beauty blogging/YouTube world and it still amazes me that this product is still NOT available in the UK. I thought it would be easy to get my hands on it when in New York but nope, I failed miserably to track down an Ulta or even a Nordstrom which is where they are said to reside. Desperate and…
Now I first saw this when little miss Kathleen Lights featured it in one of her videos and positive it was something we didn’t have yet in the UK (or who knew whether it would come to the UK at all), I snapped mine up on eBay which was higher in price than what t retails in the US but less than what Too Faced palettes sell for over here.…
Following from my Morphe Swatch and Review video last week, it’s only right that I do a tutorial to show you the eyeshadows in action. Naturally. And as I sit here and type this, I have the hugest grin on my face. Why? Well I’ve pnly just gone and ordered the actual Jaclyn Hill Palette. After weeks and weeks of serious site stalk-age, Mophe are finally stocked back up on…
Following on from my Morphe Swatch and Review video last week, it’s only right that I follow up with a makeup tutorial. This tutorial is great for those of you out there that are neutral eye lovers, using a mix of warm browns and a hint of deep plum! All of these shades are available in the Jaclyn Hill Favourites palette by Morphe. I hope you like it!…
So I feel I should add a disclaimer before you read on. I don’t actually own the Morphe Jaclyn Hill Favourites palette but I have 8 of the 28 shades which all happens to be the ones she used in her Chocolate Cranberry Smokey Eyes-Talk Thru Tutorial. I couldn’t wait for the palette to be re-stocked as who knows how long I’ll be waiting. Morphe obviously didn’t plan very well…
I've been meaning to write up this review for a while now but for some reason I've just been putting it off for the longest time. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's because I was disappointed with the products, but good or bad, I still think it warrants a review because that's why I'm here after all (and aside from the fact that I'm a makeup junkie and I quite…
I didn’t get around to do a video with swatches with my new Makeup Geek eyeshadows, but I did manage to film a makeup tutorial and this one reminds me of the sky at sunset which is why I name it so. I hope you like it. Products featured in this video: Max Factor Face Finity All Day Face Primer Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation in shade 55 Bobbi Brown Full…
Jaclyn Hill has got a lot to answer for. I am having a real moment with her videos right now and she’s only gone and enabled me to make another haul on the Makeup Geek website. If you’ve been around these sides before then you might have seen this Makeup Geek haul I did a while back. I’m actually quite surprised that I haven’t made another purchase on the Makeup Geek site since…
I am so excited to share this video with you as it’s the first video in my new set up. It’s another monthly beauty favourites video, you know the drill. All my favourite beauty products of the past month presented to you in one short video. I’ve listed the products below as well as in the description box below the video in Youtube because the products are so great…
