My lips chap like absolute crazy, so wearing lipsticks, lipstains or lipliner is a horrible experience, it's deterred me from buying lip products because they all seem to make my chapped lips look worse. I've used many different types of lipbalms but none seem to work as well. So one day I was playing around with my makeup to find a cure to the dry lips when I found a small tub of Vaseline my cousin left behind after his stay, I decided to try some and holy god, the results were amazing!! My lips were so so so smooth and lipsticks apply like a dream! I immediately went out to buy my own tub as the tub was basically empty, and the price.???? £1.99!!! Mind you it was in a pharmacy so it costed a bit more than they do in drugstores but I don't care!!! ! It is amazing and I carry it with me everywhere now. But when I travel I may depot it into a smaller container for convenience. EDIT/AFTER 3 WEEKS USE- still smooths lips but not as much as it used to, I put a heavy/thick layer on lips before bed so they stay hydrated. It's also good to apply on lashes to condition.

Makeup Brushes -E.L.F. - Studio Powder Brush

This product is great, it's fab, it blends my foundation in like an absolute dream, but why the low rating? Because of its monstrous shedding! I brought 2 of these one in June, they both lasted 3 weeks before starting to shed like mad, maybe it's the way I'm washing them, but I wash it like any normal person would! The price for a product that only lasts a couple of weeks is ridiculous, sure it's only £3.50 in the uk but if I go through one every 3 weeks, Its going to add up!! I've now swapped to the real techniques expert face brush, but let me tell you! I prefer the application of the elf brush alot more! It covers more areas of the face as its bigger, but I just don't want to buy a foundation with such a short life span! reading the reviews on here, no one seems to have the me problems as me, which I find abit strange. I will buy this brush again, but only when I need something else from elf! I'm abit disappointed by the product, I thought it would be like my holy grail, but apparently not!:-(

Liquid -Maybelline - Super Stay Makeup

I had to live with this foundation for 3 whole months!!!!! Let me start of with, the colour range of this foundation line is rather poor, most have pinky undertones and either looked too yellow or too pink against my skin. Non transfer? No no no, completely wrong, I've tried so many methods but none of them made it stay out. And considering this claims to be 24h really annoys me! I've tried putting on a primer, and setting it with powder, applying with a brush, with a sponge,and with fingers, but it slid right off! As soon as I touched my face, it would transfer, I'm so so disappointed with this foundation! Second of all, 24hours... Erm more like it transferred so much it all came off by 10:30, bearing in mind I applied it at 8! Don't purchase this foundation, it's a waste of £10, pay £2.50 extra and opt for colorstay instead, it's worth it!!!!

Misc Beauty Tools -Unlisted Brand - Cosmopolitan Blend Perfection Sponge

this product is great! I've been eyeing up the beauty blender for a while but the price of £22 just puts me off it!i found this little thing whilst browsing around superdrug and it was only £3.99!!! I currently use the revlon colorstay foundation and it can get a little cakes around the mouth area for some reason, I use this to sheer it out and make it sink into the skin more! I love this!
