Blogmas #18 | Soap & Glory Loved & Glossed™ Gift Set

I was in Boots the other day and I saw this gift set and I knew I had to have it. I have wanted to try these Sexy Mother Pucker™ Gloss Sticks for a while now, but I wasn’t sure which shade I wanted. This gift set has three shades and because the set is £16, you are getting one shade for free. I would have waited for the half price Boxing Day sale, but I didn’t want to risk not getting them.
The packaging is made out a hard black plastic and is barrel shaped, like other chubby sticks. The typography and colouring make the packaging look very sleek. To dispense the product you need to take off the cap, which is very secure and twist the bottom of the pencil. Soap & Glory say that the formula is a mixture of their Gloss-Fix Finish™ and Ultimelt™ Lip Shine & Shaping Technology. You get 2.72g in each stick and there are currently five shades to choose from. In this gift set you get three of the shades, which are Nudist, Fuchsia-Ristic and Plum Jam. They are packaged inside a cute little tin.
Nudist is a beige toned nude, Fuchsia-Ristic is a slightly neon, light fuchsia pink and Plum Jam is a nude berry, slightly plum purple in tone.
This product is supposed to feel light, hydrating and moisturising. The texture should be creamy and glide on effortlessly. It is also mean’t to give your lips a wash of colour that can be built up and add lots of shine.
I really love this product. It is definitely my type of gloss because it is not sticky and it is in a twistable stick form, so I am in love! The formula is really light and creamy, which makes it glide onto your lips like a dream. It is hydrating, but the moisture only lasts as long as you are wearing it. It adds a slight wash of colour and you can build it for a full colour look. And like a lipgloss should be, it is very glossy and packed with shine. It will last for around two hours on your lips without refreshments and it has a really nice slight vanilla scent.

Overall this is a brilliant gift set and the product for me is perfect. I am not one for lipgloss, but in this form it is just like lipstick, but shiny. The only problem I have it that it can be a pain to get the products out of the tin, but this will not trouble me for long because their new home in my make-up collection awaits them!

Colourpop Limoncello Palette

I first saw the tease of this palette on Trendmood’s Instagram and it instantly attracted me. I love the packaging and colour story, it just reminds me of summer. The design on the palette would also make a lovely and classy wallpaper pattern. This palette is part of the Limoncello Collection. THE PACKAGING The packaging is made out of cardboard, which is wrapped with a white, blue and yellow flowery and lemon design. The palette name and branding is printed in gold and the shade names are printed on the back of the palette. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift up to reveal the inside of the palette. The circle eyeshadow pans are arranged on a pale yellow, lemon skin textured base with the shade names printed above them at an angle in blue font. There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid. The mirror is inside a yellow cardboard base and it has a corner flower and lemon design on it. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get twelve 1g eyeshadows in Matte (M) and Metallic (ME) f...

Blogmas #2 | Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains

When I first heard of these I knew they would be perfect for me. I played it safe with the first shade I bought and knew I would eventually and gradually work my way through the colours to try to be more comfortable with brighter colours with a more understated and low maintenance finish. The packaging is a chubby crayon with a plastic barrel and each barrel is a different colour, which corresponds to the product shade. It has a silver band around the base of the barrel, which you have to turn to dispense the crayon and the plastic cap of the crayon matches the colour of each barrel. When you twist the band to dispense the product, you can see 3.3cm of the actual crayon, but there could be more hiding in the tube and you would just have to use up what you can see to find out for sure. The formula is light and glossy and it has a slight minty scent. I have two shades called, Honey (001) , which is a warm dusty rose with shine and Cherish (015) , which is a bright pale pin...

Jeffree Star Cosmetics: Summer Chrome Collection 2017

I have decided to do a sort of swatch post today, but I have included a little more information than I usually would for a simple swatch post. Jeffree Star Cosmetics recently came out with a new Summer Chrome Collection of products and I decided I wanted to purchase something, but wasn’t quite sure what at first. The whole collection includes; 8 Velour Liquid Lipsticks, 3 Velour Lip Scrubs, 5 Lip Ammunitions™, 2 Skin Frosts™ and various lip gift sets. I decided to pick up two items from the collection, both are lip products. I got a Velour Liquid Lipstick in Calabasas , which was £16.00 for 5.4ml. I also got a Lip Ammunition™ in Birthday Suit , which was £16.00 for 3.4g. CALABASAS - matte rosy red BIRTHDAY SUIT - satin soft rose nude I wasn’t too sure if the liquid lipstick would suit me, but it actually looks lovely. I love the colour and it is perfect after one application (the wand tickles my lips a little). It dries down and it is long wearing, but wi...
