MAC Cremesheen Glass - Petit Indulgance

So this is my first lip product purchase from MAC. Not normally a lips person, but I love the colour and I was having it! lol

Petit Indulgance is a bright, soft pink, like a Strawberry Cream pink! It's not sticky, it goes on smoothly and it lasts a good few hours but you will re-apply a couple time a day.

The payoff on my lips is sheer with a hint of pink, which I like considering the depth of it in the tube.

It doesn't have a wierd smells or tastes, which I have found in the past. (maybe thats why I stopped using them!?)

Overall, 5/5. There is nothing to disappoint me about this product.

I've Had A Go At A Tutorial.

So I received my first ever NARS shadow in a swap through MUA. And since I had recently got my new camera with my birthday money, I thought I would give it a bash at do a tutorial.

First I started off with UDPP and NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk, all over my lid.



Then I put the brown half on the inner third of my lid.



I then put the green side on the rest of my lid and blended out the harsh line.



You can't really see the brown in my photo's but it is under the green lol. I then put on mascara and eyeliner in black.



I'll maybe try and do a couple more at the weekend. The more I do the easier it will get, hopefully! lol

Proper Scottish Snow!

I took these last weekend on the way to a car meet, hope you like! =)

Max Factor Gift of Glamour By Caroline Barnes

Ok so I seen these advertised before Christmas ans wanted one. But considering it being Christmas and I had shopping to do I left it.

But low and behold, I go to Costco a couple weeks into January and there they are! Super excited, I picked one up! This set has everything you need for your handbag on a night out.

Also I love the design of the box it comes in, feels like I'm opening a new present everytime! lol.

So in the box you get;

Full Size Masterpiece Max Mascara

Full Size Duo Eye Shadow in Star-Studded Black

Full Size Duo Eye Shadow inDawning Gold

Full Size Ltd Edition Silk Gloss in Be Voluptuous

Liquid Eyeliner Masterpiece Glide & Define Pen in Black**

Travel Size Brush Set

**Now I'm not sure if this a full size product because it is kinda small

Mascara: Now this mascara is perfect for me. It's not too thick to the points its clumpy on the wand, and its not too thin where it's like water. The packing is great as I can get a decent hold of the wand for applying.

Eye Shadow: Both duo's are great. The colour payoff on both of them is very good. But there may be a bit too much glitter in the black side of Star-Studded Black. There is very little fall out from these shadow's, and they blended very well.

Lip Gloss: This lip gloss gives a good wet look affect but it heavy on application. It's not sticky either, which is good because sometimes with thicker, more sticky glosses it can feel as though you've applied too much.

Eye Liner: Now as I stated before, I'm unsure if this is a full size product as it's only about 10cm long. But anyway, I still used it and felt the size of the product is too small considering you need and bit more prescision applying eyeliner, especially across the upper waterline. The consistancy of the products is also maybe a bit to watery, but because it is a pen I'm unsure on how they could improve on it.

Overall I would give this set 4/5. There is no major hang ups with it and I'm sure everyone's opinion will be different on the individual products.

Review: FaceFront Eye Shadow

Since finding out about this site I've been wanting there eye shadow for a while. I love the vibrant colours they have, and if I had the money I would buy them all. But for now I've bought Pow Bam Wow.

I love this colour. It's a nice and vibrant blue. It goes on very easily, and blends very well. I wore UDPP and NYX jumbo pencil in milk under it. NYX jumbo pencil's are good for using as a base because they blend easily, are very sticky and help any loose shadow stick.

Using the NYX jumbo pencil helped the FaceFront shadow to pop and show its vibrancy. Packing on the colour also makes it deeper.

The packaging is nice and compact. The jars are a nice size, not to small. Also the price is sensible ($10 each), as you are paying for what you get. There is companies out there that do charge over the odds for a "not-so-good" product.

Overall I would give this 5/5, as there is nothing about this product that disappoints me.
