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!

Bad light | Good lipstick :)

My Carrie inspired look

So in between vast amounts of uni work, i have been filling any spare minutes addicted to 'The Carrie Diaries".  I didn't think it would be all that good until I caught the young Miss Bradshaw wearing a jumper I own that!! It made me look at my current uni ensemble (leggings, baggy jumper, no make-up and scraped up hair) and think....what happened?! I LOVE dressing up, but over the past month I have had to make school my priority.....but with my thesis almost done and my last presentation a matter of days away... I can taste the freedom (and lipstick)!

I jumped into my make-up bag this morning and slapped on this colour sensation lipstick my Maybelline in shade 'Hot Plum' (No. 906). I bought it a few months back and still haven't had a chance to wear it out so what better day than today! 

During A/W I always head for reds, but hey, I've lost an hour of sleep so that mean S/S14 and pink lips right?!

The colour pay off was awesome and although it transferred off quite a bit, I just love the colour so much! perfect if you are feeling a little but 80's

MUA Bronzer | Review & Swatches

"I'm too pale, I can't wear bronzer or i'll look like this....."

This was my motto/ fear for many years! A a pasty pale rose, struggling to find the right foundation that doesn't make you look too orange or pink can be a problem... so bronzer!? don't even go there...Until now!?

I always thought the key to finding the right bronzer would be to go for a better quality/ higher price tag! ohhh but how wrong I was. After years of spending a fortune on beautiful bronzers, using them once and realising I'm still too orange, I discovered this budget bronzer that are perfect for us pale gals!

MUA Bronzer | Shade 3

MUA Bronzer | Shade 3 | £1

The good thing about this products is the colour pay off.... in high quality bronzers, the colour tends to be more intense, and harder to blend! Now while this may be perfect if you are a bronzed goddess... in my case, less is defiantly more. In the summer, if you are a slightly darker, then just simply apply more... are for the cost of this MUA bronzer at only £1, you will not be left out of pocket!
