I was excited to see the release of the Zoella X Colourpop Brunch Date collection. This collaboration wasn't a very obvious one to me initially. Colourpop are an American brand and aren't widely available in the UK or Europe. Many people have criticised this collaboration as Zoella is not a make up artist and beauty isn't her sole focus anymore. However I do think this is a clever collaboration on Colourpop's behalf as Zoella has such a huge fan base in this part of the world and further afield. As far as I know the only way to purchase Colourpop cosmetics is from their website and there is a shipping fee of $10 to Ireland. I placed my order on the 1st of March and it took about two weeks to arrive from America. I ordered the Brunch Date eyeshadow palette and the ultra matte lip in the shade 'Little one'. There are many other products that come in this collaboration but I decided to only get these two products to test out due to the fact that I have never tried...

Hi guys! Today I'm going to be sharing my thoughts on The Ordinary High Spreadability Fluid Primer. I bought this online recently as I'm on the hunt for a new primer that won't mattify my face too much but will also keep my foundation on all day. I tested this out with my normal Revolution Beauty Foundation stick in the shade F1. I have been grabbing this foundation a lot recently as it's very quick to apply. I applied the primer under my foundation. The primer has a nice consistency and spread easily on my face. It took a few seconds to dry into my skin. It left my skin feeling a bit tacky which I really like in a primer and also hydrated. I then continued with the rest of my make up routine. I wore my make up for 9 hours. Initially I was skeptical of this primer but I must say the primer did make my foundation last longer on my face and wasn't drying. My foundation usually begins to break up around my chin and nose areas first but with this primer that seems to ...

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 ...

Hi guys! Today I'm going to be testing out the brand new palettes from Carter Beauty. I haven't tried this brand before but I have heard a lot of good reviews. They just launched the Zodiac Collection which includes two palettes and a few pairs of eyelashes. I don't have the lashes to try out but I do have both of the palettes. I was drawn to these when I saw them swatched on the Carter Beauty Instagram stories. The pigmentation looked incredible. I ordered these off the Cara Pharmacy website which I will leave a link to down below. The palettes are called the Zodiac palette and the Saturn palette. Each palette has three eyeshadow shades and then a contour, highlight and blush shade. Initially I thought that these palettes looked quite similar to one another however as you can tell from the swatches they are a little different. The Zodaic palette shades weren't as impressive as the Saturn palette shades. The Saturn eyeshadows are so unlike any formula I have ever tried ...

Hi guys! Morphe have recently brought back the 39A palette due to high demand and I couldn't be more pleased. I bought this palette a while back when it was sold for a limited time. At the time I thought about reviewing it however it went out of stock not long after I purchased it so I didn't think it would be fair to review a product you could no longer get your hands on. So now that it's back I'm going to be showing you a look a created using the palette.  I wanted to create a simple look with this palette using the pink shades. I started by using the palest transition shade and placed that all over my lid focusing it more in the crease. I then used these three purple/pink shades from the top row of the palette in my crease, bringing the most vibrant pink highest up in my crease and placing the other two colours on the outer v of my lid. I then took this deep gold shade and packed that all over my centre lid. I then topped the look off by adding some mascara and...

Hi guys! Today I'm going to be reviewing the new Essence Metal Shock Eyeshadow. I picked up the shade 01 solar explosion which is 1 of 7 shades. I must admit I love the colour range of these eyeshadows. This range seems to have a galactic theme and I will definitely be purchasing more of the shades. This shade is an intense gold shimmer and it applies very evenly. These would look perfect placed all over the lids or in a  half cut crease. The eyeshadow has stunning pigment and reminds me of the Stila Magnificent Metals eyeshadow. However the major difference is the price as the Essence product retails for only €4.40! These are perfect for summer festivals or for a stunning evening look. I would definitely recommend checking these out.  Available at:  https://www.sammccauley.com/essence-metal-shock-eyeshadow-01.html Thanks for reading and don't forget to subscribe to my blog!
