Rimmel Londons "Wake Me Up" Foundation

So this foundation is advertised to make your skin look more awake and radiant..and I think we all need a little of this first thing on a Monday morning!

The foundation has 'radiance pearls' in the formula which are there to help make your skin more luminous hence making you look more awake supposedly. I would say its a medium coverage foundation and a lovely creamy consistency to it.

It also says it lasts 10 hours,.It definatly didn't last this long for me but with a few touch ups through out the day I got the coverage I needed. I got it on special offer at Boots for €7.99 and it was well worth it.

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer

I didn't think that Collection 2000 was available in Southern Ireland so when I found this in a Boots that I visited recently I literally pounced! After so many rave reviews I had to see if it lived up to its reputation and I am delighted to say that it most defiantly did!  

I wont be using another concealer for as long as this one exists! It hides under eye circles and blemishes and has a lovely creamy consistency. I haven't found that I needed to top up it at all and it lasts the whole day.  And at €8.99 a pop its definitely a bargain! 

No7 Airbrush Away Primer

I have been after a primer for awhile as I've never actually tried one before *gasp shock*

And since I had a €7.50 off voucher (which are frequently chilling in my purse) I decided to try this out! For the price of €24.00 you don't get very much product.

It has a lovely silky feel when you apply it and it definatly makes a difference to the wear of my foundation. I found that I didnt need to top up much through out the day. Although a tad over-priced I did like this product.

VO5 Volume Boost Gel Spray

I love getting new stuffs! 

It was my boyfriends mammy who actually recommended this to me,.and when I seen the effect on her hair I had to get it!

You basically put a few sprays onto the roots towel-dried hair and then blow-dry it.

 It kinda gives the same effect as moose would have on your hair but without that sticky hard feeling that I HATE!

It gave me lovely volume to my hair and it still felt lovely and soft with it! :)

Catrice Make-Up Haul

Yaaay so I went spending moola today and I got some Catrice make-up!
Its a really cheap make-up brand and I love their stuff!

The first thing I got was the Liquid Liner in the colour "Dating Joe Black" 

It lasts for ages and it doesn't smudge! Its a really dark dark black colour and really easy to apply with the thin foam brush. LOVE-IT!

Next I got their Eye-Shadow Primer,.Everyone needs one of these in their make-up bags! Its amazing amazing amazing!! You only need the TEENIEST bit and it makes your eye-shadow last all day! It has a small bit of sparkle in it too so sometimes I just use that instead of an eye-shadow!

I also picked up a Gosh nail-polish,..I don't normally look at their nail-polishes but I've wanted to try a matt effect on my nails for ages but I could never find a matt polish :( 

It was actually my boyfriend who spotted it! (Thank you thank you thank you) 

I only had to put on one layer for it to take effect,.which is brilliant because it will last for ages! The only thing I was disappointed in was it didn't last long,.the next day the shine started to come through and I found it chipped really easily. Other than that I loved it!

Fun Stuffs!

Latest Purchase,..YAY!

I've been looking for this for ages because I've read so many brilliant reviews about it and I really wanted it for myself. I couldn't find it anywhere! Where I live there is very limited Soap & Glory things to buy,.mostly just the body scrubs and things like that so I ended up getting it on eBay.

So far I'm loving it.. Its fairly full coverage,.you get two shades in this little set. A more peachy toned concealer for under eye circles and then a yellowy toned concealer for blemishes. I think the blemish concealer is extremely yellow and it makes me a bit sickly looking but other than that its lovely! 

(Please excuse my grubby tanned hands)

Benefit "They're Real" Mascara

I have been waiting to get this mascara for sooo fricking long! So I was super excited to finally get my hands on it! :) 

I bought it from my local Benefit counter for €25 *sharp intake of breath*

Yes I know it is extremely expensive for a mascara but I'm a girl that loves full thick long lashes (without wearing falsies) so I figured it was gonna be worth it.

One thing I did love was the brush,..Its a plastic one which I usually prefer because you can comb through the lashes easier,..the difference on this brush is it has longer teeth or whatever you would like to call them at the tip of it so it catches the lashes even in the very edge of your eye.

Its a lovely thick formula too which is always better because a little goes along way and you don't have to layer to get results.

I actually loved this product over all,..I had no problems with clumping even after several layers..it defiantly gives a much more voluminous lash look which is what it says it will do!
