NARS Blush | Lovejoy

NARS Blush in Lovejoy is my first NARS blush!
I have so many blushers so have always resisted the urge to buy another, until now!

This blush comes highly recommend as a natural tone blush for all skin types, especially for brown skin.

The first thing I noticed is the make-up friendly packaging. It's flat and the compact includes a mirror and that is a tick in my make-up book. I am so tempted to travel with it in its original box though! I know the logo will fade really soon up amongst my other make-up items.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick | Abstract Orange

I have only very recently been into orange toned lipsticks. 

Abstract Orange is a coppery, burnt red which really suits my skin tone.

Gosh Nail Glitter | Amethyst Purple

MyNailChallenge#22

I haven't heard much about Gosh Nail Glitters, so I thought I would give my favourite colour a try.

Application is quite easy.
Step 1: Apply 1 coat of clear nail varnish to your nails.
Step 2: Dip your nails into the pot before your clear nail varnish dries.
Step 3: Brush of the excess glitter.

MUA Lipstick | Shades 9 & 10

Known for its affordable make up, MUA (MakeUp Academy)  Lipsticks cost just £1! 
There are currently 16 colours to choose from.

I'm used to buying lipsticks for £14 or more, so my immediate thought was that for £1, I really couldn't expect too much. However, I was surprised by the pigmented colour, great for achieving the latest look on a budget.

From the collection, I choose 2 quite neutral shades. 
Shade 9 (left) and Shade 10 (right).

Sleek 2012 Limited Edition Collection

I am a big fan of Sleek make up. Not only because they offer affordable make-up, but also because they provide a decent choice of colours to suit black skin and there is a large palette selection. 
i-Divine 2012 Limited Edition is my 8th Sleek palette!

Picked up these beauties in the Kurt Geiger sale for £45, less than half price! I usually go for a higher heel, but you can't go wrong with this size heel and shoe design, suitable for most occasions.

MAC Pro Longwear Lipcreme in Red Dwarf

I received this colour for my birthday (thank you Nat! :)

Pro Longwear Lipsticks are designed to give up to 12 hours of colour.

MAC describes Red Dwarf as a Pink Blue, I agree it's a deep pink raspberry colour on me.




Illamasqua Lipstick in Howl

The difference in other reds I have is it is a deep, red brick, terracotta red, with a matte finish.
