Reviewing the Revolution Beauty X Totally Soph Kit

 Hi guys! Today I'm going to be reviewing the Totally Soph Kit from Revolution Beauty. It was released before Christmas and to be honest I haven't heard much about this kit even though I thought it would be very popular. It comes with a contour, highlight and blush palette, 3 lip glosses and an eyeshadow palette. It is currently on sale on the Revolution Beauty website for €18.60. My favourite item in this kit has to be the contour, highlight and blush palette. The palette has great pigmentation and the shades are suitable for my for skin tone. It's very handy for travelling with too. The lipglosses are based on the colours from Soph's original lipstick with Revolution Beauty and have nice pigmentation. The eyeshadow palette is probably my least favourite in this kit. The quality of this palette is not like Soph's other two palette collaborations which is what I expected from her kit. Honestly this seems to be more like the quality of the Revolution Beauty's R...

Testing Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder Worth The Hype?

Hi guys! Today I'm going to be telling you my thoughts on the Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder. I have been wanting to try this out for a long time but I always put it off because of the price however I was kindly gifted this for Christmas so here are my two cents on the product. First of all I must say the size and packaging of this product is perfect. I can just toss this in my make up bag and it takes up very little room compared to when I used to keep a contour kit in my make up bag. I am also a fan of the design, it looks very luxurious. I got this product in the shade light. It is also available in two other shades on the Beauty Bay website, medium and deep. I  used this powder to contour my cheekbones and jawline and I must say I am happy with the results. It has the right amount of pigment so you won't go over board with the contour and it allows you to build your contour to what your comfortable with. I find contouring to be a tricky step in my make up routine however I ...

Reviewing the Wet n Wild Photo Focus Foundation

Hi guys! I recently picked up the Wet n Wild Photo Focus Foundation off Beauty Bay. I have been wanting to test out this brand for a while now. They are a drugstore cruelty free brand that is super affordable and I particularly wanted to try the foundation because I have seen a lot of good reviews about it online. I got mine in the shade soft ivory. I wore it for 10 hours and it held up on my face very well. I think for this foundation it changes a lot depending on what primer and moisturiser you wear underneath it. The first time I wore the foundation I moisturised my face and then applied the Farsali Rose Gold Elixir to my face. I thought this combination worked well together for my dry skin and also gave the foundation a slight glow. However the second time I wore this foundation I tried it without the elixir and it dried out my skin a lot and also started to break up around my chin and nose area. This does mean for my skin if I want this foundation to look good I have to us...

Quick 5 minute make up

Hi guys! Today I want to share my quick and easy make up I've been using recently while I'm in a rush. For me exams and deadlines are fast approaching and it is a busy time of the year for everyone. People don't have a lot of time for make up in the morning so I've recently been using these 3 products that anyone can apply in 5 minutes or less. The first is the Revolution Beauty Fast Base Foundation Stick in shade F1. I just swipe this all over my face and blend it in using a damp beauty sponge. This foundation stick is easy to blend unlike most and is also suitable for dry skin types. I've also been using Benefit Roller Lash Mascara to quickly apply my mascara. As there is no time to curl my lashes this wand does lift your lashes and there are no clumps either so you won't spend ages trying to get clumps out of your lashes. The other item I've been using is the Jeffree Star Liquid Lipstick in the shade Mannequin. This is my favourite lipstick of all t...
