Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette

Image
Since I really like the Chocolate Bar palettes by Too Faced, I jumped at the chance to get my hands on the Sweet Peach palette! Inspired by the sweet summery fruit, this 18 shade palette contains a perfect range of peach-toned pinks, purples and bronze colours to help you achieve sweet-as-peach makeup looks all year round!

My Top 3 Beauty Uses with Coconut Oil

Image
A few months ago I introduced coconut oil into my beauty routine as a natural and more gentle alternative than store-bought products. Coconut oil has natural moisturising and soothing properties that are simple and effective so today I am sharing with you my top three beauty tricks using coconut oil.

Mermaid Inspired Halo Eye Makeup Tutorial

Recently I got one of the NYX Single Eye Shadows in the shade called Mermaid and I was inspired by this beautiful aqua-blue to create a mermaid themed look so I combined blues and purple for a bright and fun eye makeup tutorial.

An Eye Makeup Look I Get Complimented On All The Time

Image
I didn't want the title of this post to make me sound vain, but I don't really have a name for this look. I have worn this look a lot recently and it's one of my favourite looks to wear at the moment. Since I always seem to catch a lot of attention from this metallic smoky eye, I thought I'd turn it into a blog post. I think this look is great for a night out or maybe a date night or something like that. I am using the Naked Smoky Palette from Urban Decay as well as another one of my favourite products for this look.

How I Organise My Makeup // Makeup Collection and Storage

Image
Over the years since I started my blog in 2012, my makeup collection has rapidly expanded in size and it's important to be able to efficiently store and organise makeup for many different reasons; to be able to find a product I'm looking for, to improve and maintain the lifespan of a makeup product and mainly because I want my set-up to look professional. Recently I tackled the task of sorting through my makeup palettes and I had discovered so many palettes that I forgot I even had due to being poorly organised in a drawer. I did a post last year of my makeup collection and storage  but this time I wanted to show you easy and effective ways of organising makeup.

Happy New Year! Since this is my first post of 2017, I thought I would review the very first makeup product I purchased this year. This is the new Makeup Revolution Retro Luxe Matte Lip Kit which you notice is a drugstore dupe for the Kylie Jenner Lip Kits. You can buy these in Superdrug and it contains one lip pencil and one liquid lipstick and is described as a 'lip contour'.
