Current Drugstore Palette Favourites

Makeup Palettes take up quite a big proportion of my makeup collection, I love trying lots of different colours, mattes, shimmers glitters, I love them all so I think this is why I have quite a few palettes now with various colours and finishes to them. 

I want to focus today on my current palette faves from the 'Drugstore' and I will hopefully do a high end version of this post soon so watch this space! So Enjoy Lovely's!
Where you can find them:

The Balm Nude Tude Palette - here
Makeup Revolution Redemption Iconic 3 Palette - here
Makeup Revolution Flawless Matte Palette - here

 My First fave is a hard one to categorise as I wouldn't say it was a drugstore palette but I bought it from Superdrug which is a drugstore health and beauty shop in the UK.  It is the Balm's Nude Tude palette, and it is sold on Superdrug, intact all of these palettes 
It has lots of beautiful shades and has a wide variety for a palette, it has a mixture of shades which is great for someone like me who uses neutral shades a lot and wants to experiment with new eye shadow shades! If you want to see what the inside looks like as I forgot to take a photo of the inside for this post you can see it here in my review of it!

The second is the Makeup revolution palette ahh these shades are divine and are so pretty on so many eye colours especially the shimmery ones. It's supposed to be just like Urban Decay's Naked 3 palette, which I have never tried and I didn't know if the pink toned shades would suit my eyes so I bought this one as a dupe for only £4 yes, you did hear that right! It's incredible for that price tag and the pigmentation is amazing... I don't need the Naked 3 while I have this! The palette has a mixture of shimmers, glitters and matte shades so perfect for creating so many pinky feminine eye makeup looks!

The Last but not least is also from Makeup Revolution can you tell I love there palettes...? It's called the Flawless Mattes palette and you guessed it, they are all matte shades, this was the perfect edition to my eye shadow collection as I have so so SO many shimmery and glittery eyeshadows but always end up using the same Mac or Urban Decay shades for my crease or transition colours, and I wanted to change that and this has so many different colours and different variations of each colours so it's perfect for creating simple eyes, but also you can use it for intensive eye makeup looks too!

Brand Focus: Soap and Glory Makeup


So a few weeks ago I did a Drugstore makeup haul and I included these two Soap and Glory products in that haul, and since I hadn't ever tried any makeup from them before I thought a blog post about them was in order!

If you want to check out my Drugstore Makeup haul you can find it on my blog here
So the Two products I picked out were the Kick Ass Concealer which is a concealer duo with two different concealers it has a peachy/orangey coloured one which I think is meant for use under the eyes as it covers dark areas very well. The other shade is a yellowy concealer which can be used to cover blemishes and any other imperfections. It also has a powder in the top section as there are two different compartments to the concealer pot, the powder is on the top layer and it is to set the concealer I'm guessing, I've only used the powder once with the concealers and it worked great but I'm loving using yellow powders to set my under eye concealer as it really brightens that area (which I really need at the moment!!) Overall this product is lovely and I love it for the under eyes but for blemishes I think I prefer using a liquid concealer like my trusty collection concealer which you can find here.

The second is the infamous Brow Archery! Mine is in the shade Love is Blonde which is a great match for my eye brows, as I find some are too dark or too light for my eye brows but this one is a perfect in-between, I love how natural the wax side is and its really good for creating longer tail to your brows. I also like the pencil side for filling them in but usually if I'm going out somewhere special but for natural everyday brows I just usually use the waxy side! I love how great this is and it's a dupe for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz which you can also find it here if you're interested in it!  

Finally I've tried some Soap and Glory Makeup and I am so impressed! For a drugstore brand they are amazing! I can't wait to see what else they have to offer! If you haven't tried anything from them I really recommend these two products!

You can buy these soap and glory products here:

Kick Ass Concealer - www.boots.com
Brow Archery - www.boots.com

Have you tried any of these two products?!
Can anyone recommend any more Soap and Glory Items to me, makeup related or not I would love to know what you love from them!

My Current Lip Obsessions

These 4 beauties are the lipsticks I am currently obsessed with and if I wear to wear a lipstick tomorrow it would 100% be one of these! I am loving a mixture of different colours lately and as you can see these are all very different to each other.

The colours above are L-R: L'Oreal Eva's Nude Lipstick, Makeup Revolution Lip Lava In Tremor, Maybelline Colour Sensational in Tantalizing Taupe, Ted Baker Lipstick in Red(has no name)
So the colours I have chosen here are a mix of nudes/pinks and reds, this being nudes/pinks are my favourite to wear and I find you can wear them with anything and they won't clash. On the other hand Red lipstick is not usually something I go for and is a little out of my comfort zone but I love this Ted Baker one!
