My Favourite Affordable Drugstore Contour Palettes

I have tried my fair share of contouring and bronzing kits, either the more expensive ones or the very affordable and perfect for when you're on a budget ones! And there are so many amazing contour kits/palettes everywhere at the moment so I thought this may be helpful for those who are on the hunt for a drugstore contour kit that would be perfect for them!

I love the Revolution palette which is to the top left of these photos I've taken, it has such a great array of shades perfect for creating that chiseled cheekbone, I find the highlighters are super great considering I wasn't expecting much I am very impressed, I love the white coloured one for everyday wear! I usually use the second shade in from the bottom row, which is seriously my perfect contour shade, it's not too taupe coloured and is not orange at all and I find most bronzing colours can literally make me look stupid because my skin is naturally quite fair and orange contour shades do not suit me on bit!

The Seventeen one is perfect for holidays I think I think my shade as I have medium, is a bit too orangey for me but if applied super lightly I can just about get away with it, I am going to get so much wear out of this in summer as It's more orangey toned and will flatter my summer tan a lot better than it does now! But for the price it's super affordable, and ticks all the boxes, considering it comes with a highlighter which is great although it is no comparison to most of my high end highlighters but I can deal with that! This is amazing value.

Next Up is my Revolution Sculpting Contour kit, or at least I've told myself that's what it is called! It comes with a contour shade, a highlighter and a pretty pink/coral blush, it is so compact and the products are quite good for a cheaper drugstore brand, Makeup Revolution give brands like Seventeen, Miss Sporty a run for there money as the products are of similar prices and just work well. The bronzing shade isn't the best match for my skin tone but when I have fake tan on it's the perfect colour and for bronzing up my neck and face to match the rest of my body it works so well. The blush is a lovely sweet coral/pink colour which is really flattering on lots of skin tones. I have used the highlighter twice and also think it's good, so this palette is so affordable at only £3.50 yes it's unbelievable how much you can get for your money from Makeup revolution!

Lastly I am going to mention my Sleek Contour Kit mine is in fair, it is a lovely small little face duo perfect for adding colour into your skin with the bronzing shade and the gorgeous little highlighter shade, this is one of the best contour kits I've tried from Superdrug, which is a drugstore shop or those who may be unfamiliar with UK drugstore shops! the contour shade doesn't come out too dark for my skin and blend so easily compared to most of these other shades of bronzing/contour shades. It's a perfect little contour kit!

Here are all the Contour Kits/Palettes I have mentioned, and the contents of them all.

Makeup Of The Day #3 - Drugstore Only

Today I'm sharing with you my makeup which I have been doing a lot lately, it's light and barely looks like I'm wearing any foundation or concealer which I love! It's perfect for those days when you're running errands and just want a little bit of makeup to make you feel good in yourself! I will link all products near the end of the post if you want to know shade names etc.

I am one of those people who doesn't have the best skin so whenever I go out I want to wear at least foundation or concealer, it'd be nice if I didn't have too all the time but I like covering up my blemishes as it makes me feel a lot more confident about myself, this is no way saying you should always go out with makeup though if someone wants or doesn't want to wear makeup they shouldn't have to it's completely down to personal preference! 

For my base I decided on the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum as it's a light coverage but does quite well in covering small blemishes and a bit of my redness. It is a lovely light but I would say can be built up a lot if that's what you desire in a foundation, although for more coverage the health mix foundation also by Bourjois is supposed to be very good too.

To cover any redness which is still visible I used the Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer, I usually use this under the eyes too, but rarely use it to cover blemishes as it makes them stand out more as the concealer has a brightening affect. 

Then as blush I used The middle shade in my sleek blush palette in Sugar which is on the right, it's a really gorgeous shade for autumn and winter seasons so I have been using this palette a lot recently! The other shades are also gorgeous too!

I then used the makeup revolution palette on the right and just dusted the bronzer shade along where I would contour so just in the hollows of my cheeks and then blending out with a makeup brush. I then lightly dusted the highlighting shade in this palette just above where I put my bronzer.

I then applied lots of the Maybelline Great Lash Mascara which is super good for such a small price, it adds quite a lot of length which is what I definitely need and doesn't clump up my lashes! So I applied this until I was happy with the look of my lashes and then that was my Drugstore Makeup Of The Day done!

Have you tried any of these drugstore products?!

If you have any Drugstore recommendations of your own please leave them below as I'd love to know!

Drugstore Makeup Haul

Let me start by saying... yes I am aware this is another haul post!

I have received so many lovely things for my birthday which have been as will be included in a few more hauls or 'products I'm trying' or somewhat like that blog posts in the near future! 

So sorry if you don't enjoy hauls but it's all makeup and all stuff I'm super excited to use so as soon as I get it it *needs* to be photographed before I can use it definitely blogger problems! But I don't care I just can't wait to try all my new makeup products featured in this post so Enjoy!

So these are the three palettes I bought with birthday money, and I'm loving them all! 

The first was the sleek blush by three palette which has three lovely shades, also the palette is called 'sugar' but online it is 'brown sugar' before I forget to mention that! the shades are called: Left - Demerara, Middle - Muscovado, Right - Turbinado. they are all super lovely shades and I was so drawn to this palette as I haven't tried any of the blush palettes and at this time sleek was on 2 for £10 so will mention the other product in a mo! but My favourite shade has to be the middle shade 'Muscovado' it is just such a beautiful colour and has tiny little shimmers but they don't make me look like a glitter ball! *yay haha* but then close second is the fist shade which is like a dark cranberry shade, it looks so scary but it is super pretty and I am gonna love using it this winter! 

The Second product is the sleek palette on the right. It is a contour kit which has a contour powder(as you'd expect) and a beautiful shimmery highlighter. Now I already had this but in the more expensive one which included a blush, I never really used the blush - partly because I smashed it on a solid flood which smashed it to smithereens! And then this broke the packaging, now I won't be doing that with these! but I'm so clumsy haha so I won't be surprised if I do! Now this one (shade-light, btw) was in the sleek offer so both together came to £10 which I was so happy with as the last product retails for £9.99 on it's own, BARGAIN! The contour shade is perfect for my skin tone and I love the highlighter too so it's a perfect mini makeup compact! This one retails for £4.49!

The Last product is the Makeup revolution ultra sculpt and contour palette, which is £3.50 so for that price I wanted to give it a go! It has a contour shade, highlighter and pinky blush shade. I'm in the shade 'Ultra Fair' and It's lovely for the price I am amazed! The only downside is they are all very powdery so it gets everywhere haha! But I love it anyway for the price I am in love! All of them are wearable shades and look very pretty on the skin.

Review of the Makeup Revolution Iconic 3 Palette

Today's post is all about a palette I have been loving from Superdrug which comes to the total of £4! Yeah, you heard that right! 

I have always loved my Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette but when they bought out the Naked 3 which is all pinkish toned eye shadows I was a bit dubious to try it after never venturing out into trying pinky colours on my eyes, as I had always stuck to neutral colours as I thought they looked really elegant on my blue eyes, and I wasn't sure if pinks would suit me. but this little £4 palette has changed my mind!

Variety of shades: This palette offers 12 beautiful pinky coppery colours but has two or three darker purple-y-taupe shades, There are a mixture of shimmery glittery colours and mattes so you have everything you need in one palette to make lots of different pinky eye shadow looks anywhere you like! 

My top favourite Bronzers

Bronzing or contouring has become a very popular throughout the last year or so on YouTube, and the Blogosphere whether you want a subtle contour or a Kim K one it is easy to master with the correct products! 

Now I have a mixture of high end and drugstore favourite bronzers, mostly drugstore as I love a good contour and get through bronzers quite quickly and this means it can get fairly expensive if I am using just high end ones! I will be giving my honest opinions on them all but as you can see by the title of  this blog post these are my most loved and most favourite bronzers, so enjoy!

Favourites of March!

Hi Everyone, Today as it is nearing the end of March, I thought it would be a good idea to make a March favorites blog post, I always love watching favorites videos though YouTube, but I thought it would be great fun to do on my blog. I have a mixture of makeup and skincare products to share with you today!

Benefit Cheeky Sweet Spot

I found this was such a lovely gift, as you get to try five of Benefits box blushes, and the infamous 'Hoola Bronzer' you also get to try a mini of

the 'Watts up' highlighter which the full size comes in a stick form with a blending applicator on the bottom, this highlighter is lovely and adds a nice sheen to your cheeks, it can be applied naturally or built up to be quite bold which i really like as you can use it for creating a natural dewy
