MUA Prism Highlighter Hit or Miss??

Hi guys today I'm going to be talking about these Mua Prism Highlighters. I ordered these in 2 shades I got Solar Flare and Ultra Violet from the Superdrug website. I paid £4 each for these but they are currently on sale for £3 on the website.
Initially on swatching these products I was impressed. These both have a duochrome glow to them, Solar Flare has a pinky/gold glow to it and Ultra Violet has more of an icy white with a hint of a purple. Solar Flare swatched beautifully and it has a creamy texture however when I swatched Ultra Violet it was very chalky and flaky. 
 I was very curious to see how these highlighters would apply and look on the skin. I applied these and unfortunately I was disappointed, they just weren't as pigmented as I would have liked. I usually prefer a blinding glow on my face and there are lots of drugstore highlighters out there that give you a very intense glow at a good price.
However if you are someone who is looking for a cheap duochrome highlighter with a subtle glow then by all means give this a try but it just didn't suit me personally. These come in 5 shades in total, I believe they're are also more green and blue shades if your looking for a colour that is more out there. Overall I think that these are nice for a very subtle highlight but if you're looking for a more intense glow these might not be for you so for that reason they are a miss for me. I'd give these highlighters about a 4/10 rating just for the level of pigmentation and their subtle glow.

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
