Make Up Revolution Lipstick | Scandalous Shades


Make Up Revolution 'Scandalous Shades' 
[Top Swatch] 'Crime' | [Bottom Swatch] 'Depraved'

On my recent trip to London I had a wee trip into Superdrug and picked up two 'Scandalous Shades' of the £1 lipstick collection from Make Up Revolution. The two shades that caught my eye were 'Crime' & 'Depraved'. 

Although I loved the shade 'deprived', The colour pay off wasn't quite as amazing as hoped, and it was all wrong for my skin tone, but still pretty good for £1. The winner for me was defiantly the pinker shade 'Crime'. Colour pay off was vibrant, and it lasted well on the lip!

I would say these lipsticks, and the range in general are very similar to MUA, but i've not been quite won over yet. I would love to try a few more products from the range so I hope we get a stand in Scotland soon!

Today's Make-up | Basic Bitches do it Well


FOTD | 25/6/14 

Garnier Miracle Skin Cream | Colossal 'GO EXTREME!' Mascara | GOSH Brow Kit

With potentially the biggest photo opportunity of my life a week on Friday (My Graduation), my skin has of course decided to explode with spots and puffed out a little (maybe too much yummy food and sleepless nights in Spain me thinks?!) In an attempt to keep spots to a minimum and my skin looking a little more tight and youthful, today I'm keeping it basic. Instead of foundation, I am just wearing the new Garnier Miracle Skin cream (review blog post coming once I've tried it out for a bit longer) a lick of Maybelline 'The Colossal GO EXTREME! Volume Express' mascara (what a mouthful) and my go to GOSH Brow Kit to tame my brows slightly before I get them waxed a little before the big day. 

All products are available from Superdrug





Have any of you tried out Garnier Miracle skin products?

Review | 17 Miracle Matte Foundation


17 Miracle Matte Foundation | Boots £5.99


Well for those who didn't already know, here in the UK, we have been having a bit of a heatwave. This burst of summer has actually left me with a Tan and a need for a new Matte and slightly darker foundation! In this heat pretty much everything melts off and any 'dewey finish' foundations are useless! Not wanting to spend a fortune on a new foundation (lets be honest, I'll not be this tanned again in a very long time) I headed to boots and picked up their '17' Miracle Matte foundation that boasts 'all day shine control', ' Oil free' and has an SPF 15!

Two things surprised me about this product. Firstly, It applied and blended very well with my skin, something that I don't usually expect from a drugstore foundation and secondly, It lasted a good 8hours on my skin without sliding off or cracking on my skin. 

I know by September, I'll be back to my milk white complexion, but for the time being, I am very much enjoying my flirtation with this foundation.

Thats all for now
