LANCÔME Monsieur Big Mascara

I’ve had this mascara for a while now and I’ve only just got chance to give it a proper try, so I can let you know what I think of it. It is quite well known in the beauty word, so I was expecting to like this mascara. I also love that the name is part French (Monsieur means Mr/Mister in English) and it reminds me of the TV series; Sex and the City.

The packaging is a large shiny plastic black cylindrical tube with a metallic hot pink stamp on the front containing the mascara name. The brand name is written underneath in a metallic hot pink font. You twist the brush cap and lift to pull about the wand/brush. On the end of the cap is a raised black rose image. The brush is big and soft. The bristles are made of soft fibres and it has a tube shape. The formula feels a little thick and kind of tacky. You get 10ml of product in the tube and the shade I have is 01 Big Is The New Black. You can purchase it for £22.00 from Lancome.co.uk and Lancome.com.
This mascara is supposed to give your lashes big volume and intense colour. It shouldn’t flake or smudge and it should be easy to apply.

I really love this mascara and it is the best one I’ve used in a while! It does give your lashes a lot of volume and it also lifts them and makes them appear thicker. It does have an intense black colour and it is extremely easy to apply, even to the little lower lashes! I didn’t notice any smudging or flaking, but it can make your lashes clumpy if you apply too much. I would recommend two to four coats, depending on the desired volume. I would definitely re-purchase this mascara again in the future and I recommend you give it a try, if you don’t mind the price tag.

BY BEAUTY BAY Fiery 16 Colour Palette

This is the third BY BEAUTY BAY make-up product I’ve tried and I did see it on the website when it first launched, but never picked it up. It was always sold out anyway so I couldn’t get it and the packaging has just been re-vamped for all of their palettes and all of the products were re-stocked. I decided to pick this one up because of the size, it’s not too small and it’s not too big. The nine shade version of this palette is all matte, and I really like shimmers/metallic and the massive forty-two shade version is too big (too many shades and too big to store in my drawers). I thought the sixteen shade palette would be the perfect medium. My palette actually arrived faulty; one of the eyeshadows is missing (Burnt Sienna). In the spot were Burnt Sienna should be there is actually a duplicate of another shade in the palette (Sunstone). Basically, I have two Sunstone eyeshadows and I should only have one. I don’t have the shade Burnt Sienna when I should have one of them (abov...

Morphe X Jaclyn Hill Volume II Palette

This palette has been out for a while now and I did purchase it a while ago, but I have only just decided to really play with it. Morphe palettes in general put me off because of the size of them, no shade names, boring packaging and too many shades in some palettes. The colour story of this palette in particular is really attractive to me. I didn’t buy Volume I as I didn’t want to jump on the band wagon, the size of the packaging and the colour story is just boring to me. I did pick up the Vault Collection (four palettes) and what a massive disappointment it was too (now decluttered)!! I was initially put off this palette due to my past experiences, but the colour story though! Also, a good thing about the Morphe website is that you can always get 10% off your order with an affiliate code.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is a quite large thin rectangular shape. It is made out of glossy white cardboard and it has the branding and information printed in metallic silver font on the fro...

Anastasia Beverly Hills X Nicole Guerriero Glow Kit

This palette became a cult favourite in the beauty sphere when it was first released as a limited edition product in collaboration with Nicole Guerriero (Beauty Influencer on YouTube), and there have been many calls to bring it back. In 2020, Anastasia Beverly Hills finally listened after three long years! I only actually heard about this palette after it had completely sold out and was no longer available. I must have been living under a rock at some point during 2017, because I completely missed this product! I am glad I finally got the chance to get my hands on this palette and I have heard nothing but raving reviews. There are six metallic highlighter shades, which should be highly luminous. They have a refined formula that should deliver buildable coverage with a smooth finish. The shades were created to flatter all skin tones and they can be applied anywhere on the face, eyes, lips and body. The palette is cruelty-free and vegan. You can purchase the palette for £42.00 (...
