THE SHADE & SWATCH
Brunette (#1706) - neutral brown/warm brown mixed
 
MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
I’ve not come across an eyebrow pencil like this before. It has two shades of brunette in one pencil. There are only three overall shades to choose from (brunette, blonde & wonderful/grey), which isn’t the best but I was given the most appropriate shade for my hair colour. I’m not sure if everyone received the same shade or whether the information about us on the LF Beauty Box profile was used to match us with a shade. I haven’t actually used a brow pencil since 12th March this year! I just left my brows alone throughout lockdown and then when I went back to work, I just started tinting them and they look great with just a bit of brow gel to keep them in place. I thought I didn’t really have much hair to work with, but I am guessing the hairs were just too light for me to see. Since I have been tinting them, they look much fuller and almost like I have professionally had them done. I don’t know if I will really go back to using a pencil now because it has been so long and it looks too much to me. I would like to get them professionally shaped and micro-bladed, but it can be quite expensive to get done. I will hopefully give this pencil a go when I next wear a full face of make-up. Day-to-day (even pre-pandemic) I only really wear a little concealer (under eyes), pressed powder, a light dusting of bronzer and then highlighter. Pre-pandemic I used to also pencil in my brows, but it just looks silly to me now with the natural/no make-up look. I will most likely be wearing a full face tomorrow as my sort of tradition is that I wear glitter eyes on Christmas Day, so I might try it out then. The pencil seems kind of dry, but it might become creamier after it has been used a little. I haven’t done a full face since the 8th March this year! I have already done green glitter with a red crease and last year I did red glitter with a green crease. Tomorrow I think I am going to do blue glitter with a blue crease, very monochromatic!

Perfume Power! - Soap & Glory™ 'Eau De Soap & Glory'

I bought this because I already had the first Soap & Glory perfume and I really loved the Mist You Madly line scent. The bottle is cuboid shaped and made of opaque black glass. It has a regular perfume spritzer and the cap is clear plastic and T shaped with a pink woollen sash wrapped around the base. On the front of the bottle there is a pink foiled sticker with the Soap & Glory logo. The fragrance notes are:- Bergamot, Cassis, Magnolia, Freesia, Vanilla & Musk This perfume is a strong florally and musky scent. It is quite sweet, but not overpowering. The bottle is also a classic design, so you can re-use as decoration if you peel the sticker off the front. It is the Formula 2 scent, which is what some of Soap & Glory products smell like (The Daily Smooth, Clean Girls, Mist You Madly etc.). I can really smell the bergamot, freesia and musk. It has a sort of masculine smell and does last for a while on your skin. It is a must have if you love the Mist...

Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Lipsticks

I tried these lipsticks a while ago and I did recently de-clutter them all (April). I thought I would still share the swatches with you for reference. I only de-cluttered them because I didn’t use them, not because I didn’t like them. Poet (60) - soft beige pink Seductress (65) - dusty beige rose Amazonian (70) - rich caramel brown Fighter (75) - rich gingerbread brown Self-Starter (130) - muted smoky peach Ground-Breaker (117) - dark orange red Lover (15) - dusty rose Ruler (80) - marsala red Voyager (50) - cool toned wine red Heroine (25) - bright scarlet red Creator (35) - bright violet Believer (40) - dark eggplant purple These matte liquid lipsticks are mean’t to be long lasting and stay on for twelve hours. They should also have intense colour pay-off and be non-drying to the lips. The arrow shaped applicator is mean’t to make it easy and more precise to apply the product to your lips. You can purchase them for £9.99 each from Boots,...

Anastasia Beverly Hills X Jackie Aina Palette

This palette is in collaboration with Jackie Aina, who is a Beauty Influencer on YouTube. It is mean’t to be limited edition, but it has been out almost a year now and it is still for sale. I feel like it didn’t quite get it’s full moment and time to shine as the Carli Bybel (also a Beauty Influencer on YouTube) collaboration palette was released not long after. Up until the pandemic hit, Anastasia Beverly Hills were known for quickly putting out new products with little time left in between new launches. Nevertheless, this palette does look beautiful. The packaging is the usual ABH slim rectangle shape and it is made out of metallic faux leather and has a crocodile scale print. The base of the print is a kind of nude shade and it reflects green, blue, pink, yellow, orange and purple. Almost like a duo-chrome eyeshadow. It has a magnetic closing which you lift up to reveal the inside. The inside has a black base containing the small square eyeshadow pans, the shade names are w...
