Mascara -Soap and Glory - Thick & Fast Mascara

To be brief and to the point it is fantastic !! I never really got the hype about Benfit's Bad Gal - it's good but not insanely good and I always found removing it wasn't a rub free job and I HATE rubbing my eye area in fear of wrinkes one day eek ! But this Mascara is gorgeous. I have no clumps, no flaking and best of all it is really easy to remove with a bit of make up remover and water. My eyelashes are so spread out and super long. Think of the advert for the "They're real" Benefit Mascara, and that is truly what mine look like - no word of a lie ! I am going to add a picture just to prove how good it is ! And for £10, I am going to be repurchasing this for a long time !!

Primer/ Corrector -L'Oreal - Studio Secrets Magic Perfecting Base

The reviews mentioning breakouts are totally right - if you are in any way prone to spots DO NOT BUY IT !!! After one day it started a breakout and it made my skin very hot and feel as though it was burning after a few hours, I am still today wearing no make up to try and refresh my normally good complexion. Admittedly it is smooth on the skin, very smooth in fact, but unfortunately there is no point using something that will smooth out the surface of your skin if it is just going to make it more bumpy in the long run - don't buy it.

Lipstick -MAC - Cremesheen - Creme d'Nude

AAAAHHH ! FINALLY THE PERFECT NUDE !! I am soo happy with this lipstick - bought it today in the hope it will at least beat some of the other nudes I have collected and wow :) I will probably be buying this for the rest of my life !! I have very red lips naturally and with my pale skin it just looks odd and I look washed out so have been on the hunt for a while. MAC myth was my first attempt, and yes it is a perfect shade but it looked awful on dry lips.. which my lips always were as it dried mine out :( I tried lip balm under/over and it wouldn't have any staying power. I then tried MAC's Honeylove, which wasn't my cup of tea at all - far too dark for my pale skin and just doesn't look right. So back to the MAC counter today, and I was choosing between repurchasing myth ( so as not to waste more money on ones I wont use !) or trying another. I went with this and as soon as I tried it I was in love... my skin tone suddenly looked great, my eyes popped and my lips looked nude, shimmery but subtle ! PLEASSSEE buy it or at least test it at the counter ! It isn't too pale or solid so you don't get the foundation look, it's just fantastic. I would rate this for hours :)

Hair Styling Tools -Remington - T-Studio Pearl Curling Wand

I have always curled my hair with my ghds since my last curlers just didnt do the job properly. I really started to love my hair wavy / loosely curled and so I asked for these for my birthday having read the reviews... and WOW !! I can't believe how good they are ! Regardless of price they are incredible. I have naturally straight / frizzy hair so I blow dried it roughly straightened my fringe and got to work with the curler. First time I used it very high about 190 and the curls were so tight and fantastic, however the next time I tried it on 130 and i achieved the PERFECT loose curl for me and at this temperature I am not damaging my hair anywhere near as much as I did with my GHDs and I can't get over how they look after sleeping through them ( last night) So I had to review them. I would happily pay £50 for this so it is a total bargain !! PLEASE buy them and save yourself money !
