Brows For Every Budget


I love having full eyebrow! I just love the appearance of them especially on my face shape, I have tried and tested plenty of eye brow kits and eye shadow shades to fill in my eyebrows and I thought I would share with you my favourite for achieving natural and full eyebrows from a low to higher budget! 

Now I adore each of these palettes and think the products are amazing quality so they would all be amazing, I have naturally dark-ish blonde hair! So I usually have the use quite light shades for my brows as I think this suits me best I will be taking you though the shades I also use in particular in each of the palettes! So Enjoy!

Seventeen Brow Kit - here at www.boots.com
I really enjoy using this palette on days where I want something quick and simple, this little palette is so useful as it has a mini brush and an eyebrow pencil so this is really handy for travelling and on the go! (although all of these are really!) It comes with a wax on the left hand side and the brow powder in the middle it is quite a mid toned brown colour but I can get away with it with my hair colour, although it's super easy for my eyebrows to look too much for me as I am heavy handed so I need a light hand when applying this, but don't get me wrong, it's a lovely colour when applied. It also comes with the white shade on the right which is perfect for highlighting the brow bone if you do so wish! I think this is so great and affordable at only £5.99!

Mac Quad - Omega and Woodwinked - here at www.selfridges.com
The next brow powder I use is this eye shadow from Mac which is called 'Omega' now I first discovered this after watching many YouTube videos where beauty guru's would use this shade if they had blonde to light brow hair and it looked amazing, so I had to try it myself and it just creates a really natural eyebrow colour and is so easy to create the appearance of thicker or fuller brows as this eyeshadow can be built up and doesn't straight away give you crazy eyebrows as the colour is light but not too light for filling in my eyebrows so I think this is great, however I do not use the other shade as I only use that on my eyes! This eyeshadow on it's own retails for £10 from Mac.

(woodwinked not used as a brow shade by the way it is a shimmery gold!)


Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 Palette - here at www.houseoffraser.co.uk
Lastly but definitely not least is my Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 palette, now this is so versatile and is so good as it has basically every eye brow shade you could need and I love using this as a palette for my eye shadow as well as an almost everyday essential for filling in my eye brows. I just find it has every neutral eye shadow shade I would need and it's just a bonus that it has my perfect shade for filling in my eyebrows which is called 'Frisk' as you can probably tell because I have hit the pan quite a bit now! I think this has such a variety of shades so I would say it's literally a perfect eyebrow palette! even though it's an eyeshadow palette it's perfect as it's basically a 2 in 1! The only downside is the price at £23 but it can be used in so many ways and with Urban Decay products you get what you pay for! The quality is amazing!

The Body Shop Camomile Cleansers

So Today I thought would be a great time to share these amazing body shop makeup cleansers, which remove all makeup on my face so easily and leave my skin feeling silky smooth and moisturised! 

They are both amazing for all skin types I find, as they leave a nice smooth residue after cleansing but that is not going to aggravate any skin types, they just seem to melt away and vanish makeup and I have really been loving alternating between them as it's getting colder and they leave my skin feeling moisturised but not sticky or oily. 

The one I have used the longest is the camomille cleansing butter which is just super lovely for removing all of my face makeup, but I wanted to try the oil as I thought it would be better for really cleansing my eyes and removing the traces of eye makeup which I usually find are left behind when I don't use something tough on waterproof mascara like an oil or makeup remover with oils in it, as they tend to melt away all kinds of eye makeup a lot better than other cleansers which mainly remove the makeup from around your face.

I have been using this cleansing butter much longer than the oil which I obviously cannot comment on much yet, but the cleansing butter a little definitely goes a long way I use the tiniest bit to rub around my face and then I use a flannel or muslin cloth and my makeup is all melted away just like that! The amount in the tin is very generous too considering there are a lot of products similar for a LOT more money than this!

I love how convenient it is too, it takes maybe ten seconds to rub it all into my face and then rinse with a cloth and the whole process takes literally 30 seconds! Which I really love as sometimes I literally can't be bothered to cleanse and remove my makeup but it's something a girls gotta do! At least in my case as I would break out like anything if I slept in my makeup! I don't dream of doing that now as it's so simple to use!

Then we move onto the cleansing oil, this one is also from the camomille range and is £2 cheaper so if you want a cheaper option this one would be better, this one I would say if you want just one product to do the job of removing face makeup and eye makeup this is your one! As I think it removes eye makeup a lot better than the cleansing butter version, as this is an oil it lifts eye makeup off so easily but works just as well on your face makeup to leave it cleansed and fresh with not a single trace of makeup left on your face!

The only thing I would say is if your skin is super oily the cleansing butter would probably be better as this one is an oil and may make your skin produce more oils because of it going into your pores and removing the makeup on your face. But if you only have slightly oily skin like me only in specific parts of your face I would say give it a bash as now I can't live without them both! I would say though you only need one of them though as they are pretty much the same, so whichever one you think sounds better for you I would really recommend them both and they last for ages too! The one that is most likely more for your money and more uses would probably be the oil though so bear that in mind!

And I just lastly wanted to let you know, I don't like these, I love them and they are such an amazing addition to my makeup removing routine and I will be sure to a makeup removing routine as a blog post soon as I love seeing what other beauty bloggers use to remove the tougher more hard to get off makeup, e.g. mascara!

Have you tried any makeup removers from The Body Shop?
