Hello my lovelies, I hope you're all well and aren't hating the weather too much. Currently up here in Chester it is wet and rainy and it seems like this weather is going to carry on throughout the next week. I'm currently dressed for autumn right now with my grey jumper on and black jeans.
So I thought today I would do a post completely different to anything I've done so far as I really need to get back into blogging again. So at the minute in many shops on the high street there are loads of beauty products I am desperate to try and test and want to buy at some point soon and there is also some beauty storage I want to get as well.
The first product I am desperate to give ago is the new Cushion Nude Magique foundation. It says,
"Discover liquid foundation revolutionised with NEW Nude Magique Cushion Foundation, our 1st cushion drenched in liquid foundation for an ultimate fresh nude finish, in a tap."
This sounds like an interesting concept to be able to apply a liquid foundation with a cushion and to still be able to achieve a flawless base sounds like a kind of product I gotta get my hands on. I've always wanted to try out mousse or velvet foundations but never really been that drawn to any of the current ones out there and I've seen this and so many people are raving about it, that it makes me want to give it a try.
£14.99
The second product is something I've wanted to try for a while. I see this in Boots and Superdrug all the time and I mean to pick it up but I either forget about it or another product I actually need has taken the place of picking it up. But it's the Maybelline Cover Stick.
Normally I don't get on well with stick concealer forms as they usually don't cover anything, they don't brighten my face, and they normally don't sit over my foundation nicely.
It states, "Cover blemishes and dark circles. Waterproof. Available in 3 shades: Ivory, Vanilla and Nude"
It looks like it will do best to cover redness and brighten certain areas like my t-zone and under my eyes. Judging by what it is, it looks like it might be best to blend out with my fingers rather than a brush or beauty blender. But either way, I'd like to try it.
£3.99
Recently this product has been all over all of the makeup tutorials I have been watching on YouTube and so many YouTuber's have said that the baby skin primers are up with all of their high end primers, which makes me want to give it ago and see if it is worth it.
I've heard mixed reviews saying they're great and that they're not worth the money you have to pay for a little bottle.
"This water-based blurring complex hydrates, refreshes and smooths the appearance of skin for a perfect finish – with or without foundation."
Now my skin is not perfect and any product that can smooth out my complexion for my makeup to go on top and still look flawless sounds like a good one to try and test. Also, this sounds like it would be great for summer when you don't want to wear much makeup but still want to look flawless and by having a base like this to layer your makeup onto sounds like a helpful product due to what it states it does.
£7.99
This is a bit of a weird beauty product for me to be interested in because I don't normally use pearl bead based products as they never seem to work for me. But this is Gosh's precious powder pearls in the shade Warm Sand. I thought they'd be a really nice bronzing shade considering I'm so pale as at the minute the contour shade I'm using is quite dark (it's really an eyeshadow, haha) and I want to switch it up and try something different.
"Gosh Precious Powder Pearls is the most wonderful ultra fine sun powder in attractive pearl form - for very easy application."
I am mainly attracted by the colour and I feel I could get a nice bronzed kiss look to my skin which is really appealing for the summer months.
£8.99
Continuing our bronze and contour theme. The next product is MUA's Bronze & Sculpt Contour Kit. I mainly want this as I have their Highlight & Strobe kit and it'd be nice to get the fully works to use together. I absolutely love the packing and both this kit and the highlighter version are really compact and easy to carry round. Therefore, easy for travelling.
"A duo, bronzing compact perfect for effortless contouring. The lightweight powder in two tones allow for perfect sculpting definition and accentuation."
I think I'll get it in light/medium as I can again get a nice sunkissed look to my skin and both the contour shade and bronzing shade will fit nicely together as they're from the same compact.
£5.00
Our third and final sculpting based product is this bronzer shade from The Balm called Bahama Mama. I don't own any products from The Balm and I've heard a lot of good reviews about them. I don't know what drew my attention to this bronzer, I think it is because it is similar to my contour shade I'm using at the moment but is in a proper form instead of an eyeshadow, haha.
"A Caribbean getaway in a compact. This matte bronzer creates the look of beautifully tanned skin without any orange undertones for a fresh - off the-beach glow. Bahama Mama also doubles as the perfect contour powder and matte brown eyeshadow."
Now for the drugstore this bronzer is a little more on the pricey side but as I could potentially use it for contour, eyeshadow, and a bronzer I'll be able to use it for more than one step in my beauty regime if I wanted to.
£14.99
This highlighting quad from Sleek is the most beautiful set of highlighters I have ever seen and I need this in my life. The palette is called Midas Touch and I can just see myself using this in the autumn and winter months of the year to get a cool ice toned highlight to my face. I have cool toned skin therefore I feel like it would compliment my skin tone and we all know I'm not about natural makeup.
"A limited edition face and body highlighter palette used to highlight and contour the face and body to achieve the ultimate sculpted look."
I feel as if this could be used for eye lids as well as highlighter and the blue and green shades in the pallet could be used for potential Halloween looks that I'll be doing later on this year. Therefore this set of highlighters is quite versatile and I need them in my life.
£9.99
I continue on with the highlighter obsession and this is one of MUA's newest highliting powders from their Undress Your Skin range. I already have the shade Powder Pink Shimmer and I use it all the time and it is a beautiful highlighter, it really compliments my skin due to my pink undertones. But this one is called Opalescent Amber and this is quite a daring highlighter, but like we've discovered I don't really do natural makeup, so who cares.
I feel like this highlighter would look stunning on the eyes as well as on the high points of my face. As it's a mix between copper and pink within the highlighter, I feel it would be great for autumn to still give yourself a sunkissed glow with an autumnal twist. It would also compliment a rose gold eye look.
"MUA’s highlighting powder instantly radiates and lifts any complexion. This can be applied all over for an added radiance or applied to the cheek bones and under the brow bone to lift and accentuate your natural features."
I really want to buy it already and use it every day, I'd love to own all this range of highlighters at some point as they're really worth the money.
£3.00
Damn guys, I'm sorry, I lied, we aren't quite done with the bronzers yet, oops. So I didn't realise that MUA brought out some new bronzers and this shade is Sahara Sunlight.
"Achieve a sunkissed, radiant shimmer look with MUA's bronzer. Dust over face and body for bronzed perfection! Adds warmth and a soft, natural glow."
I'm aware I want to buy a lot of bronzers and contour's but I'm currently using an eyeshadow to bronze and contour as I don't have any proper powders to do the job. I feel like I want to get a different range and see how I like them and this one just looks so cute. The pattern within the powder also looks quite golden which means it should give off a nice shimmer.
£4.00
Were back to another primer based product; the #InstaFlawless from Rimmel. It seems like it would be a lovely primer/ tinted moisturiser for summer time and in the summer I want to look #InstaFlawless without so much effort.
"Rimmel London #Instaflawless is a perfecting tinted primer with SPF 15. More than just a primer, this clever complexion-enhancer helps perfect and protect skin, visually erasing signs of fatigue and giving a natural-looking radiant glow."
From what it claims to do, my skin would really benefit from this right now. My skin is okay at the moment but I feel like it just looks a bit dull and this would be good a product to help radiate my skins complexion.
£6.99
We've reached a pallet, what a shocker! I can never get enough of eyeshadow pallets and I saw this on Makeup Revolution's website under new launches and I'm like, "OH. MY. GOD." I need this in my life. It is a new pallet apart of their chocolate collection called Vice. I think the colours are absolutely stunning and this looks like it would be the perfect pallet for the autumnal months upcoming later in the year. It seems you have all the colours you could ever need to create some stunning eye looks for autumn within one pallet and that also means it'd be great for on the go! I desperately need to purchase this ASAP!
£7.99
Continuing on with this Makeup Revolution saga, this is their Corrector Pallet. I feel like lately a lot of people have been obsessed with looking overly flawless so in their makeup routine they cover up their redness and blemishes with shades like this in order to benefit the look and application of their foundation, concealer, powder etc. And I want to see what this craze is about and see if will benefit my makeup routine. I've heard good things about this corrector pallet and as it's not too expensive it means I can try all of these colours out and see if they are for me.
£6.00
OH MY GOODNESS, we've reached another product that I've been desperate to purchase for the longest time. When I found out Makeup Revolution brought out a rose gold lipstick range I was dying to get all these colours and I still am! Each and everyone of these colours are my kind of colours as I'm not a one colour lipstick kind of person. I'm bright in the summer months and dark and deep in the winter months of the year. In this range there is a lipstick colour for everyone as it goes from nude to a deep plum. I seriously need to buy these!! And not to mention, the packaging is to die for.
£3.00 each
In the UK we have recently had NYX put into some Boots stores and the Boots website. I have heard so much about these butter glosses from many YouTuber's who are obsessed with these and it seems that they're super popular over here too. They're not the cheapest glosses ever but I would like to try them and see what all the fuss is about. They come in really nice colours and they looked super pigmented.
£5.50
And finally we have reached the range that inspired me to make this post in the first place. Recently Primark have brought out a new makeup range called P.S. Pro and it is to combine the drugstore prices but have the quality of higher drugstore products. I haven't found this range at the moment in my nearest Primark, so I need to go on a hunt to find all these products and test them out. I'd like to do a full face of makeup with all of these products to see if they actually work. I haven't heard many reviews of this range yet but I'd definitely do a first impressions review for you guys.
The prices range from £2.00 - £5.00 across all the products to create a full face.
Finally, Primark have recently broughout some small storage boxes to put your makeup in and keep it organised. Unfortunately I cannot find a flattering photo of the storage for you guys. But I'd really like to get some, especially for next year when I move into my new house for university and have the storage to sit on my desk and keep it organised. This year it's just been all over the place and has mainly had to live in random makeup bags, when in reality I'd like for it to sit on my desk and look pretty. The storage boxes are big enough to fit a good amount in but also compact enough to not take up loads of room.
Pots - £2.50
Draws - £4.00
Well guys, thank you for reading and taking an interest to the new products I'd like to try and test. I will obviously review these for you guys when I get around to buying them. But in the next day or two a GRWM shall be posted, so keep your eyes pealed.
Love,
Katie
