Travel Friendly Palettes


I am a girl who loves a good makeup palette, whether it's eyeshadows or a bronzing/blush palette I love them all! So I thought I would share my favourite travel friendly palettes as I have so many palettes I thought this would be an interesting read for those who want to find easier to travel around with makeup, which can just be popped in your handbag and won't take up to much space!

I will leave links to all of these palettes below if you want to check them out!

So the palettes I have chosen to feature in this post are:
Tanya Burr Hollywood Palette - here

Urban Decay Naked 2 Basics Palette - here

Makeup Revolution Iconic 3 Palette - here

Mac quad (made myself) -  
Omega - here
Woodwinked - here
Palette (quad) -  here

Below is a photo I took of all the palettes in natural lighting so this is how they look, and they look as true to colour as I could possibly get them too. 

Tanya Burr Hollywood Palette - 
This palette is perfect for travelling, I have only tried this palette out of all of Tanya's quad palettes, and the colours are absolutely stunning! I love the shade 'gold coin' it's so pretty and looks pretty on the lids but still remains quite natural compared to other shadows. I love this palette and a I went away for the weekend a few weeks ago and took this palette and it was so travel friendly and having a mirror makes it even more handy as you can do your eyeshadow just about anywhere! 

Urban Decay Naked 2 Basics Palette - 
This palette is one perfect for everyday, in fact I use it everyday as I always use the middle shade for filling in my brows as you can see I do use it quite a lot haha! I also love using the second shade in just to cover veins on my eye lids when I just want it to look natural and barely look like I have any eye shadow on my lids, it's also a great palette for creating browny smokey eyes so it has so many uses and you can create a variety of eye looks using just this little palette!

Makeup Revolution Iconic 3 Palette -
I never thought pink eyeshadow would look nice on me, I've always wanted to try it but had been too scared. So when I noticed this palette around four/five months ago I wanted to give it a go especially for the £4 price tag but I was definitely a bit skeptical because of how cheap it was, it sounded to good to be true! but It isn't! I am amazed at the quality and I am so looking forward to using this palette in the summer as I think these shades will look beautiful and I just think they look so summery. I think this is such a good palette size, it's a bit bigger than the first two palettes but it would be perfect for a date night or weekend away and they just look so pretty and girly that it looks like you've spent ages doing your makeup, they are such pigmented eyeshadows and I really recommend this gorgeous £4 palette!

Mac Quad - 
Lastly out of all my favourite travel friendly palettes is my Mac quad, I only have two eye shadows called 'Omega' and 'Woodwinked' but you can fill up these palettes yourself and pick the exact shades which you want which I think is amazing! I love using Omega for my eyebrows too sometimes to just add a bit more colour and fill them in. I think Woodwinked is such a stunning golden coloured eyeshadow which has the most gorgeous shimmer but isn't too over the top, it's perfect to pair with a pink or red lip and this palette is so small you could definitely take it most places as it'll probably fit in a clutch bag or a purse so is definitely very travel friendly!

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. 

Omega - here
Woodwinked - here
(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!

Product's I'm Loving Lately


If you'd like to see what products I have been loving in the past month or so then you've come to the right place! I have a mixture of Makeup, Perfume, Body care favourites so I hope you lovely's enjoy and don't forget to tell me what you've been loving too! 

You can find all of the products below: 
Soap and glory Sugar crush body spray - here
Nails Inc Nail Polish in Hyde Park  - here
Benefit Laugh with me Lee Lee Fragrance - here
Nyx Soft Matte lip cream in Copenhagen - here
Seventeen Wet look Liquid eye liner - here
Soap and glory heel genius cream - here
The comforter shower cream - here
Mac lipstick in Velvet Teddy - here
Mac Whirl lip liner - here

Soap and glory Sugar crush body Spray: This body spray is such a gorgeous, sweet scent and it's just a mist/spray so it's easy to just use and makes you smell amazing! It's super good value but it's so easy to use so much as it just smells so amazing! If you like the sugar crush scent you will love this!

Nails Inc Nail polish in Hyde park: I have been having this on my nails constantly throughout January and this month too as it's on my nails right now so it's definitely a nail polish I have an attachment too, because I literally can't stop wearing it. It is the loveliest grey/blue and it just looks so classy and elegant on the nails.

Benefit Laugh with me Lee Lee Fragrance: For a perfume favourite this Benefit one has been my absolute favourite. I love the scent, it's the perfect feminine floral and powdery and I adore the packaging of this perfume too. I definitely think I a going to be loving it for a long long time and the scent lasts really well on my skin!

Nyx Soft Matte lip cream in Copenhagen: Now I hate purple lipsticks on me, but this is the only colour I have found that I actually really like on my skin tone, with some goldy/bronze eye makeup I really have been liking using this, but I probably won't be using it for a while because I am wearing so many pink/peachy lipsticks now the weather is getting a little better.

Seventeen Wet look Liquid eye liner: I am definitely not a pro at applying eye liner. This one is probably one of my most favourites I've discovered along with the barry m liquid liner which you can find here it looks so good on and I feel I can control the nib and the thickness quite easily, which I find very difficult with most liquid eye liners! I really like the fact its 'wet look' too because I think it looks super black as soon as it's applied and stays the same the whole day for me!

Soap and glory heel genius cream: Now I am not a foot lover, really to be honest I hate them, like they are just weird compared to my hands I think feet look super weird, but I know we all have them so. I have really been liking this foot cream, it is quite thick but is so nice to put on and then put on a pair of socks to let your feet soak in the moisture and literally my feet have never looked better! I love painting my toe nails too just because well I think painting them and keeping them nice makes my feet look at least 20x better! I don't usually use foot cream but I really think this is so good!

The comforter shower cream: I am someone who really loves sweet scents and this shower cream from lush is no exception for that! It has the same smell as the much loved and raved about 'The comforter bubble bar' which I adore so I had to buy this! The smell is glorious and I know that I need to buy more before I run out or I will definitely not be a happy bunny!


Mac lipstick in Velvet Teddy: I know this is everyones favourite Mac lipstick but it just has barely come off my lips lately, it's my go to lip colour if I want something that looks sophisticated or won't require to much upkeep throughout the day. As it's a matte lipstick it lasts for ages on the lips!

Mac Whirl lip liner: I also have been loving my Mac lip liner in the shade whirl, it is a super stunning colour and if you like neutral pink lips this lip liner is great and because I have so many neutral nude lipsticks it suits so many of my lipsticks which is a bonus in itself!

Most Loved Eye Products of the Last Year


Let's start with: these are favourites from last year but they will definitely be through this year too, I am so addicted to using all of these makeup bits and that will carry on for as long as I can't find anything I love more, and right now it seems impossible that I will!


So these have all been very talked about items, so I have the Naked Smoky Palette to the Left, then two of the Lash Sensational Mascara's in the middle and then to the left I have my Mac Warm Neutrals Palette. These are all my most favouritest  eye makeup items of the last year and I'm sure I will be loving them this year in 2016, which may I add feels super odd to actually be saying...

I had never been a mascara junkie, I had always stuck to the same mascara, which when I think about it was good but didn't give me a lot of thickness too my lashes and they didn't look as good as I wanted them too, so I tried the Maybelline Lash Sensational in March of last year and I haven't looked back since! This is why I have included two as you can see the one on the left side the packaging looks very well love compared to my super shiny one on the right. I am currently on my third and I am so obsessed with it and I don't know if anything else can compare!

The Palette to the left is the Naked Smoky Palette and in the last few months of 2015, I had been using it daily, even if it was just a little bit of colour on my eye lids, it is amazing for creating those dramatic, sultry eyes and I feel like it has a mixture of day and night shades, a lovely one for experimenting with autumn eye looks, there's a festive gold and a champagne-y pink glitter, it has navy's, purples, silvers the list goes on. The possibility of difference looks you can make with it is endless! It's stunning!

The palette on the right hand side, is also a beautiful and luxury palette. It's the Mac Warm Neutrals palette and it has the most easy to apply warm shades which I think are perfect for autumn and summer as I tend to wear orangey copper eyes in the summer time, it I'm going out at night on holiday, or in the winter time when I want something quite warm glittery and festive. It has a lovely mixture of mattes and glittery/shimmery shades which I feel like is the only downfall in most of the Naked palettes as I love matte colours to deepen up the eye look and sometimes I can go a bit overboard with the glitter so I need matte shades to tone the eyes down. The Mac one is amazing for this as there is such a range of both and they will all complement each other, you don't need to think too much about the colours not matching as all of them seem too whatever ones I use together!

Naked Smoky Palette - www.houseoffraser.co.uk £38.00
Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara - www.superdrug.com £7.99
Mac Warm Neutrals Palette - www.selfridges.com  £65.00


These are my all round most loved and most used Eye Products of 2015 and I'm sure will be featured in lots of blog posts in 2016 I hope this has been an enjoyable read for you!

Do we have any of the same favourites?

A Few Favourites Of December

So I have been loving so many amazing products this month but I wanted to share these three favourites on my blog today as I have used them all religiously this month. I think this is mainly because I love rose golds/golds and berry red autumnal shades in the winter season. And these are all these different colours which I adore wearing.
Buy them here: 
Mac Warm Neutrals Palette - www.selfridges.com
Benefit Rockateur Blush - www.boots.com
Avon Nail polish in Cherry Jubilee - www.avonshop.co.uk

I love doing my eyeshadow a lot it is something I find doing is very therapeutic and I love experimenting with different eye looks mainly warm toned as I feel like warm toned colours complement my eye colour a lot more.

That is why I'm loving my Mac Warm Neutrals palette this month, as I love gold/copper eye shadows on my eyes to really make my blue-y/green eyes stand out more. I especially love using the three colours from the middle right they all create the most gorgeous orangey brown eye look they are called honey lust, amber lights and saddle, I have also loved experimenting with the two shadows on the bottom right called divine decadence and unwind. The green-y colour reminds me of mermaids and could look so pretty for a party look I think!
This palette retails for £65 which is a bit steep but I saved for so long and it should be around £150 or more as the eyeshadows separeatly retail for £10 and there are 15 eye shadows.

The next is my lovely Rockateur Blush by Benefit, it is the most gorgeous almost dark rose gold shade, it is so pretty and looks gorgeous in the hollows of the cheeks a bit like bronzing and blushing yourself at the same time it adds a lovely subtle glow and just makes you look super healthy! This retails for around £23 which is expensive for makeup but I have used this so so long and I haven't even touched the pan at the bottom. (which is good as I never want it to run out!)

The last is my Avon Nail polish in Cherry Jubilee, it is one of my all time favourite nail polishes for autumn and it hasn't often been off my nails this month! If you want a lovely deep red which has slight purple tones too this is gorgeous and was only around £4, it lasts so much longer on my nails than other brands like L'Oreal and Barry M.

My ESSENTIALS for the Autumn/winter months


So today's post is my essentials for Autumn and Winter. So there's a mixture of things I'd use in both or in one or the other so let's get right into it and I will show you what my essentials are for the autumn and winter seasons we are in and will be going into soon! This post is also featuring some gorgeous Francesca Heels from Online Avenue which I was lucky enough to be sent so enjoy the blog post!

So Autumn is my favourite season because that's when my birthday is and who doesn't love the month their birthday is in (am I right?!) And in autumn I love having the appropriate nail and lip colours that I associate with autumn, so I have a mixture of nail polishes and lip products that I would use in both autumn and winter as I love them all and they are mostly berry/red shades which I find are perfect for both seasons! also I will tell you what all the nail polish/lip colour shades and brands are near the pictures below! 
In both autumn and winter my face/body needs a good moisturiser, as well they make your body feel so much softer and the cold weather can really make your arms/legs/face in particular really really dry. Now I like to use the Garnier Moisture Match in Dry to Very Dry as I find this really helps to bring back moisture into my face, this moisturiser in particular is also only for the face. The second is the Vaseline Spray and Go moisturiser which is amazing to just spray on rub it in and you're done. It dries so quickly which is what I need when I'm moisturising in the morning or before going to bed as I want something that will be quick and then I can carry on with what I'm doing. These products are both amazing if your skin is dry they are a life saver for me! Although everything featured in this post is an Autumn/Winter essential for me!

So If I can be bothered in Autumn/Winter, usually only if I'm going out somewhere nice I will make an effort with my makeup and put on eye shadow, so the palette here is my Mac warm neutrals. It has a mixture of shades but has a lot of gold/copper shades which I absoloutley love in the Autumn weather as well as I also do in the Summer! So basically this is a lovely palette which is a great all rounder for any season really as I wear these sort of shades on my eyes all year round but I love how festive the shades feel in Autumn/Winter too! And it's also perfect for creating christmas party eye shadow looks, as I LOVE A bit  LOT of glitter!
You can find the palette here

So I also have a tangle teezer and this is the gold compact one, it is such a good hair brush and I feel it's so good for on the go as I hate bringing a huge hairbrush (well compared to this one) If I'm travelling and don't want to many bulky items in my bag! the tangle teezer barely takes up any space at all!
You can find the same here

So quickly I will take you through my autumn/winter appropriate/favourite lips and nail colours which are: 

Nails: Nails Inc For glamour in Colville Mews, Avon Nailwear pro in Cherry Jubilee, both gorgeous colours I'm currently obsessed with!
Nails Inc Polish Here
Avon Nail Polish Here

Lip colours: Mac lipstick in Russian Red, Ted Baker Lipstick in Red (doesn't have a name) Rimmel Kate Moss in 22, Rimmel Kate Moss in 107 (matte lipstick) which are all my faves for this time of year!
Mac - Russian Red
Ted Baker Lipstick - Unable to find Link
Rimmel Kate Moss 107 here
Rimmel Kate Moss in 22 here


So these are the gorgeous boots I was sent by www.onlineavenue.com, they are an amazing brand which I was chosen to feature on my blog from EtailPr I absolutely adore them and would love to feature them in a blog post soon so watch out for that too! 

Online Avenue is an online shoe company with such great value shoes any type you would want they have it on there! They go from a UK women's size 3- size 8 which is great as most people I know are within these sizes! They have such good bargains so if you want some new shoes that won't cost the earth go and have a look!

The one's I have here are the Franchesca Block Heel Pointed Toe Boots and I am totally in love with them! They have a gold detailed trim which is on the front of the heel which was one reason I totally fell in love and knew these needed to be mine! They also have a pointed toe which I think looks so nice on heeled boots but at the same time it isn't uncomfortable and these are super easy for me to walk in so that's an added bonus. I think these boots are really unique and will be coming more into trend through the colder months we are fastly approaching!

I also think that the material used to make these beauties is great as it looks suede but isn't. It's a Lycra material and this also makes them really easy to take on and off as it has good stretch, they also don't have a zip which is also a bonus for me as all my favourite boots I've had in the past with zips seem to break so easily and I've just given up with them, and I'm so happy I won't have to worry about this with these. They are the perfect addition to my shoe wardrobe and I would love to style them in some wintery outfits soon. 

So if you want to have a look at the amazing Online Avenue They have some of the loveliest shoes, heels, boots and even wellies! They have so much variety and for such amazing prices and I'm super impressed and I'm sure I would definitely want to buy some shoes from them in the future! 

They are just an essential for me now in the Autumn/Winter months as Everybody needs some warm boots to keep them toasty throughout the colder seasons!

What are your Autumn Winter Essentials?!

October Favourites

Now is October Favourites time! I felt like the last month went so incredibly fast, but I'm excited to tell you all about these products I have been loving and most of them are all makeup so if you love makeup, which I assume you must do if you're reading my beauty blog! So keep reading if you want to hear more about these glorious makeup and one bath product favourites! 


The first two I'm loving are my two Mac lipsticks the one on the left is the colour 'Russian Red' which I love as it's the most lovely red it's not too bright or too dark, but I would describe it as a classic red colour which is great for important events/parties as it's matte and lasts a long time and looks sophisticated and really pretty on so many skin tones and the colour being more of a muted colour which isn't too bright just looks stunning and I love it! 
The second is 'Rebel' which I'm sure most bloggers/Youtuber's have heard of as it was hyped about so much last year, I have used this a lot this month as my lips have been quite dry and this isn't matte so it doesn't make my lips even worse, it's a lovely berry colour when one layer is applied to the lips but when two to three coats are applied it looks a lot darker and is a perfect vampy purple lip perfect for autumn and winter! 

Next I have been obsessed with snow fairy! A lovely magical shower gel from Lush or at least it just feels and smells magical! It is so super sweet and I love how this is a scent from Lush that they bring out at Christmas but it's still a super girly and perfect product to gift someone at Christmas as a little goes a long way and the scent lingers for so long, and I can't get enough of it as I can't most Christmas' (and about six months after) It is the prettiest pink colour and it's perfect for me as I love anything pink in my bath along with all the lovely pink bath bombs from Lush!

Thirdly I am loving the seventeen Falsify mascara and I'll be honest, I didn't think it would live up to my trusty Maybelline Lash Sensational but it's definitely a close second! for a drugstore mascara it is the bomb and makes my eye lashes (that are so so short may I add) look so much thicker and longer and I don't know how it's so good but it doesn't look fake and unnatural, I think if I did a lot of coats of this it would live up to the 'falsify' term as it just adds loads of length for me and I don't know how but I am LOVING IT! 

Now I never thought I would say this but I am in love with this nail polish, it has not left my nails for about 3/4 of this month and I am never obsessed with nail polish much, I just tend to buy ones and are dissapointed with the colours or quality, this one has lasted a good four days on my nails with 2-3 coats which is so good for me as I struggle to get any to last longer than a day without chipping while doing simple daily chores and activities. It is the colour 'Cherry Jubilee' and would you believe this was a free gift with an Avon purchase my mum made and to be honest, I haven't put it down and she's probably wondering where it is, ooops... better put it back soon but if you have the chance the Avon Pro nail + range is such good quality and lasts a lot longer than Barry M and L'Oreal on my nails!

Lastly but totally utterly not the least is my NAKED SMOKY. This palette is just a dream come true and I have loved it especially this month because in the colder weather I can get away with the dark blues and the gun metal shades, which really look nice with a brown or black smokey eye. I love how you can create so many looks with just this one palette there are the easier to were shades and the intense colours so it's perfect for creating something simple and on the more natural side or something a bit more out there!

Makeup Of The Day #1

Makeup is something I love to change up on a regular basis, I like to use a mixture of products and try not to stick to the same things all the time. So today I thought I would try some products in my collection that have been pushed to the back of the drawers for a few months. So without further ado these are all the products I used in today's MOTD-(makeup of the day!)

BASE:
Benefit Porefessional primer - This primer is just amazing, I've tried so many cheaper alternatives that claim to be as good as this but they don't seem to compare in my opinion, this one makes makeup apply so much smoother on the dry parts of my skin, which sometimes look worse when makeup is put on them but not this! I have loved it for ages and it's still going strong!

The Perfect Palette Tag

Today I'm doing a Tag post as I think sometimes these are a little bit of fun and are a chance to show more of your personality, and be yourself. Today's is the Perfect Palette tag and this tag was made for me as I am addicted to buying palettes and I have quite a few this is going to be hard I can tell! I'd like to say too before I start that palettes are something I like to collect and a lot of them had been bought with my own money or with birthday money etc. I haven't bought them all in one go most of them in about 3-4 years or longer.

1. Best Packaging
Without a doubt the Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette, I am just in love with this packaging it is so gorgeous and I also really love the way it's magnetic, it seems to make it feel like a more luxurious product, although it already is but it just makes me love it all the more!(if that's possible) If you'd like to see more pictures of the Naked Smoky palette I have a haul where I featured it here

All About my Mac Palette & Favourite shades

This is the day I am going to talk to you all about my Mac Warm Neutrals palette and why I love it and my favourite and most used eye shadows in the palette. 

Firstly I thought I would mention to fill a Mac palette the insert is around £20 and then each of the singular eye shadows are £10 each, So you would be spending over £150 to fill up a Mac palette yourself with your hand picked eye shadows. I bought this for £65, which on it's own is A LOT of money to spend on eye shadow but I bought this with all my own money that I had saved around a year ago I think or maybe sooner, but it is so Amazing! And even a year later it is probably one of my favourite makeup items I have ever purchased.

My Top Spring/Summer Lipsticks

This post is going to be my most used/reached for lipsticks, which I will be wearing throughout Spring and Summer 2015! I hope this blog post is of some interest to other ladies who are obsessed with lipstick because well I am and I'm not ashamed to admit it!

I have a mixture of Bright, Subtle and how I would describe as 'My lips but Nicer' choices for Spring/ Summer. I love pairing brighter lips with summery outfits which can sometimes need a lipstick to either brighten or keep it simple, I have made my choices around this as I usually pick lipsticks based upon my outfit!


Left to right: Avon Extra Lasting lipstick in Cappuccino, Rimmel London Kate Moss lipstick in 16, Revlon Colourburst matte balm in Elusive, Rimmel Moisture renew lipstick in 200 Latino.


























1. Avon Extra Lasting lipstick in cappuccino - This lipstick on me is quite a dark nude, which I love!It looks simple and doesn't wash me out,

A guide to Brush cleaning


With Brush cleaning it is a good idea to wash them every week or two depending on how often you use them. When cleaning the brushes it's best to use anti-bacterial soap/shampoo or hand wash, as this will leave them clean and dirt will clog your pores once using the brushes. I either like to use hand soap or use brush cleanser which i will show in a moment.

It is really simple to do and keeps the bristles in good condition so they will last longer.

My Eyebrow Favourites: For Beautiful, Bold Brows


Hello Everybody! Today's post is about my favorite makeup products to use on my brows, to either fill them in or set them in place.



Mac eye shadow in Omega
This colour I use Mac's 'Omega' eye shadow which is on the left of this palette obviously I don't use the right shade as it is a gold eye shadow called 'Woodwinked' this is also from Mac, Omega is definitely one of my ultimate faves as it creates a natural strong brow, if you have blonde or light brown coloured eyebrows, this is
a firm favorite for taming those brows!

Makeup look using the Mac warm neutrals palette


Today I have decided to do a makeup look using my Mac warm neutrals palette. I have chosen to go for bronzy eyes with a hint of shimmer and a red lip. I thought this would be a good blog post so that people who may want to try Mac, can see what are my favourite shadows and my lip option is because they are my current favourite makeup pieces. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this blog post and it will maybe help or be interesting to read.

I did also do foundation, powder and bronzer but
