When the MAC x Mariah Carey collection landed in November 2016 I knew I had to get my hands on as much as possible. As part of my haul I got the Sweet Sweet Fantasy Blush. I have now been using this for a while (although you wouldn’t know!) and I have to say, I am impressed. This is the first single MAC blush I have ever used and it’s…

Review | MUA Burning Embers Palette
I have been picking up my Burning Embers palette (£8.00) up every time I haven’t been sure what look to go for and I have been playing with it so much. This popped on to my radar when the lovely Vicky from Beauty Breaks with Vicky spoke about it on her YouTube channel and blog and I had been searching for it since. About a month ago I found it at…

Review | Renaissance Lipsticks – Makeup Revolution
After much deliberation I decided to purchase 4 of the much spoken about Renaissance Lipsticks from Makeup Revolution. These are the newest lip installment from the TAM Beauty collective which are much more luxe than their original £1 lipsticks. Packaging There is no denying the packaging looks familiar, think Charlotte Tilbury, Joan Collins and Esteé Lauder. It is metal, not plastic and really weighty. Formula These are a mixture…

What I have learnt whilst being on my spending ban
At the beginning of this year I spent a lot of money on beauty products. So much so that I decided to go on a spending ban from the 16th February to the 23rd March (payday to payday) without buying any beauty (apart from essentials). I know what you’re thinking? Why are you doing this? What are you trying to prove? Well, I am in London on the 23rd and…

Review | MAC Soft & Gentle Mineralized Skin Finish
I know I am late to the party but I wanted to share my thoughts and review on MAC Soft and Gentle Mineralized Skin Finish. I will be the first to admit that MAC was never my first makeup brand choice originally – I like the packaging and I liked the idea but I hadn’t quite found the product that made me want to try anything else. Till this product….

Review | Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly Palette
The Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly Palette is such an adorable item in my collection. This was only released in the U.S. but I was lucky enough to get my hands on it from one of the facebook makeup selling groups I am on. As usual the packaging is super cute, as with all Too Faced products. It’s a little slim tin with a magnetic closure and has a…
