Simple glitter eye look 💫

Image result for stila eye glitter holiday set

Hi guys and welcome back to my blog!
Today I'm doing a simple mini eye look on the new Stila Written In The Stars - Glitter &
Glow Liquid Eye Shadow Set that launched as part of Stila's holiday collection. I wanted to create a very simple glittery look and give you guys my thoughts on this new Stila set. According to Stila's website this mini set comes with 3 shades, Diamond Dust (sheer silver and multi-colour glitter) Kitten Karma (champagne, silver and copper glitter) Smoky Storm (light pewter and silver glitter) and this set retails for £25 on Cult Beauty.
In my opinion it can sometimes be tricky when dealing with glittery eye shadow. So I'm hoping this trio will be easier to use compared to other glitters and pigments.  For this look I wanted to create a simple glittery glow that is wearable even on a daily basis or for a more natural look.
I love these shades as they are universal colours and are going to compliment every skin tone. These eye shadows come with a flat doe-foot wand applicator which I find beneficial for make up beginners as it's very easy to apply with. The texture of these shadows are smooth but wet and takes time to dry. You should be careful when applying these as they can smudge easily and I would also recommend using an eye primmer as the shadows can settle into the crease.
However overall I believe this is a stunning set especially for the price point as this mini set is roughly equivalent to one full sized eye shadow.
 For anyone who is interested in testing out this trio I would recommend watching out for it in the January sales.

SOSU Contour Stick

Hi guys! Today I’m going to be reviewing the SoSu contour stick. I’m aware this product has been around for a while now but I have always avoided cream contour products for two reasons. The first being that I don’t want the product to slide around my face and also powder products are easier to use. Secondly, any cream contour products I have come across for reasonable money have been too dark for my skin tone. I purchased the contour stick in the shade ‘Cool’ from my local pharmacy that stocks SoSu products. On application I swiped the contour stick directly onto my face where I would normally apply contour powder and then I used a beauty sponge to blend it out. The stick is very pigmented and it only takes one swipe to apply. It’s very smooth on the skin and the product is easy to build up if you want a more prominent contour. The component feels good quality and the product is cruelty-free, paraben-free and vegan. Overall I think this is a great product. The stick is ea

Testing make up brushes from Lidl?!

Hi guys! Today I'm going to be reviewing the Miomare professional cosmetic brush set from Lidl. I was in Lidl last week and saw these. They were only €5 and I thought they would make an interesting blog post. This is an eight piece set that includes a powder brush, a blush brush, an eye shadow brush, a mascara wand, a lip brush, an eyeliner brush, an eye shadow applicator and  a brush roll . All the brushes are 100% synthetic. There were a few different colours of the brush rolls but I just got the black faux leather one. I was testing these brushes out over the weekend and I have some mixed feeling about them. My favourite brushes in this set are the powder and the blush blushes. I also really like the mascara wand. However I didn't enjoy the rest of the brushes. The eyeshadow brush did not apply product on my eyelid very well. The eyeshadow applicator, eyeliner and lip brushes weren't very useful for me. I don't usually use these tools when applying my make up anyway
