Maybelline The Mega Plush Volum' Express Mascara

Everytime Maybelline bring out a new Volum’ Express mascara, I just have to go out a buy it. Especially when the £2 off introductory offer is on!

The tube is a light turquoise colour with sheen and it has a shiny fuchsia band between the applicator and tube, which is the same colour as the writing. On the back of the tube there is also the brush type diagram. The brush is kind of barrel shaped with a point. The bristles are light and soft and made of some sort of fibre material. The formula is a glossy gel mousse. You get 9.6ml of product inside the tube and the shade I have is Black.
This mascara is supposed to create massive volume and be soft to the touch. It should also be less harmful to your lashes because it has 40% less hard waxes, which means your lashes shouldn’t feel hard and dry, even when the product has dried. It is also Maybelline’s first gel mousse formulated mascara.

I really like this mascara! I really love the Volum’ Express line of mascaras anyway and not one of them has ever left me disappointed. The brush is quite flexible and you do have to watch how much pressure you apply when you are inserting it back into the tube. It makes your lashes look bold, defined, separated and voluminous. It is very easy to apply and build and it is clump-free and smudge-proof. Because it has a gel mousse formula and 40% less waxes, it leaves your lashes feeling soft and smooth.

This mascara is brilliant and I definitely recommend it!

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shi...

Boots Fragrance Sampler Gift Set for Her 2015

I decided to treat myself to this little fragrance set. As you know, I am a perfume addict and I’m quite addicted to collecting perfume samples too! It’s this year’s Boots Fragrance Sampler set for Her. I saw last year’s advertised but I always thought it was a little expensive for what you get. The set basically contains eight samples of Boots best-selling female fragrances by other brands. The set comes in a small, thin cardboard box and each sample is set inside a plastic insert. You also get a small fragrance guide and the voucher, which is what you’ll need to get your full size bottle of your favourite sample. The eight samples in this year’s set are:- HUGO BOSS - Boss Ma Vie This is a 2ml sample vile in pipette form and can be exchanged for a 30ml bottle of the eau de parfum. “Inspired by the independent spirit of a woman, exuding a glow of femininity and confidence. Created around the cactus blossom, aiming to reinvent and modernize floral green notes ...
