Summer 5 Product Face!

Hi Ladies, just a quick post for you today!

I love the idea of a 5 product face, something quick and easy to put on when you don't have too much time or just can't be bothered to pile on a truck load of products onto your face. 

Here are the five products I've chosen, that I would use to create a simple yet lovely Summer look. 

L'oreal SuperLiner Black Lacquer in Black Vinyl 

Sleek Blush By 3 Palette In Lace

Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Ivory

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Blackest Black

Bourjois Rouge Edition Lipstick in Rouge Jet Set 

I decided on these products to make a gorgeous cat eye with a bright lip. 

A look I adore for the Summer time.

What 5 products would you choose to make an easy five product face?

REVIEW - Bourjois Rouge Edition Lipstick - 02 Beige Trench

Hullo Ladies,

I've been looking for a great highstreet nude lipstick for some time now, all my favourite nudes are by MAC and I just can't keep excusing that £14 price mark. 

 I picked up the Revlon Lip Butter in Pink Lemonade hoping that it would be a lovely pinky nude but it was way too sheer for my pigmented lips. 

So my quest brought me to the Bourjois counter a few weeks ago and I found this gorgeous dark nude. It's called Beige Trench and it's from the "Preppy" category. 

You can see in the picture how creamy it is, the colour is gorgeous too. It's going to look stunning paired with a dark smokey eye look. 

In the lip swatch it's coming out a lot lighter than what it really looks like, It's actually quite a neutral beige with warm undertones, darker than your typical nude lipstick.  Think 90's nude lippy.  Which isn't a bad thing! Not to me anyway :-)  

A nice neutral lipstick that isn't so pale it makes me look dead ! Yay !

I'm loving these bourjois lipsticks, they're really good quality and definitely worth the price. 

Very hydrating and super pigmentation. 

I've found the lipstick I was looking for and I'm very pleased with it! 

Have you tried any of the Bourjois Rouge Edition Lipsticks? 

I'd love to get more from the collection :-)

Superdrug Haul

Hey Ladies!

Superdrug had a 3 for 2 offer on all makeup this week and I obviously had to take advantage of it :-) 

I know I said 3 for 2 and someone may be saying to themselves "hang on there is 7 products!" well that's because I bought one the day before the offer started. Bad Timing I guess :-(

So the first 3 products I picked up was the Bourjois Rouge Edition Lipsticks. I remember seeing these everywhere when they came out and I've wanted to try them ever since. There's so many to choose from!  I must have ended up with twenty swatches on my hand before I left the store with these three. 

Apparently the collection has three different categories - Preppy, Colour Block and Night Out. Without even realising I was lucky enough to pick up one from each! 

The colours I chose  - 02 - Beige Trench, 11 - Fraise Remix and 13 - Rouge Jet Set. 

Next I picked up the Maybelline Color Tattoo in On and On Bronze. Which is a gorgeous cream eye shadow that can act as a base or just be worn on its own. 

I also picked up the Rimmel Scandaleyes Eye Shadow Stick in Bulletproof Beige. I heard about this on Dailymix Tv the other day so decided to pick it up. I wore it in my inner corner today and really liked it. 

I've always wanted to try the Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Blackest Black as it seems to be a cult product, loved by some and hated by others, so I thought I'd give it a go. 

Also the one product I bought the day before the offer started *sigh* was the Maybelline The Colossal Volume Express Smokey Eyes Mascara. I'm real low on Mascara so I'm slowly starting to build up my collection again. Even though I didn't get this in the 3 for 2 I still got it on offer as Superdrug had a £3 off Maybelline Mascaras. Mwhahahah! 

So that's pretty much everything I got this week. Have you taken advantage of the Superdrug 3 for 2 offer on at the moment? I love it! 

Hope you all had a great weekend :-)
