L'Oreal Eye Shadow Test

Hi :)
You never know if a new make up product is really going to do as the adverts promise, the models are always airbrushed, with false lashes, hair, nails, the work! So I thought I'd do a little review for you. I said in my last blog that I was going to put my new L'Oreal Infaillible Eyeshadows to the test :) So here we are. I wore 014 Eternal Black and 015 Flashback Silver, which I blended together. They went on very easily and create a bold colour without any base primer.

I went out clubbing so usually my make up is next to nothing by the end of the night!

Here's before ...

I blended the silver from the inner corner of my eye to the black in the outer side.

Here's after...

Not bad?

The black faded slightly at the corner, but this is the longest lasting eye shadow I've ever used. I didn't use any primer or staying aid, I just applied the eye shadow using a sponge tip brush, then blended with a soft brush. I'd defiantly recommend L'Oreal Infaillible Eyeshadows for their staying power :) You can pick these up from Boots for £6.99, and they are in the three for two offer :)

Hope this has been helpful :)

Barry M Beauties!

Working up town is a big hindrance to my bank balance. I end up detouring from normal route to the bus stop, through a few shops :) Today I had a little spending spree in Boots.
I took advice from Look magazine's tweets and made the most of Boots 3 for 2 offers.
First of all I brought this little beauty!

I saw a similar pen featured in the 5th September issue of More! on 'The High Street Edition'.

The Ink Outliner from popbeauty.co.uk is a similar product that costs £10! (and I couldn't find it on the website). The Barry M Wink marker was only £4.59! Less than half price!
I've never been a big wearer of eyeliner, simply because I can see well out of my one eye -.- so when I shut my right eye everything is a bit blurry, which makes it terribly difficult to draw straight. Very unfortunate. I've tried everything, even liquid eyeliner is still a bit tricky, but this fab little beauty is sooo easy to use, even for me aha. Here's my first attempt, its not perfect but its a heck of a lot better than using a pencil :|

I defiantly recommend this to people who are iffy with eyeliner! I love it.

I also brought two Barry M eye crayons, one of which I got FREE on the Boots offer :) I've not tried these before, I've always gone for conventional powder eyeshadow.

They are pretty tricky to get the hang of at first, and I could do with some lighter colours to blend them with.

I think they would make a good base coat for the Dazzle Dust. Oh well just gives me another excuse to go shopping :P

Thanks for reading :)
