L'Oréal Paris Double Extension Renewal Serum Inside Mascara review

 (thats a long title!)


I Love this mascara!! It has a white part and a black part. The white sometimes goes clear when it is left to dry which is a good thing, no white eyelashes. It is lengthening and separates the lashes nicely, it doesn't clump or flake! and it is cry proof!!(for me anyway) so in the windy days when your eyes are watery you wont get panda eyes.

The brushes are average, they could be better but they get the job done.


The white is the better part as it is more lengthening than the black, i think the black is just to cover up the white. 
 As you can see the packaging is gorgeous! shiny navy blue and gold. 

Overall i love it! i don't think my lashes have grown or got thicker but i think i would definatly buy it again because of the mascara!

MAC DazzleGlass- like venus


I'm in love with this! I've never thought of buying one until i bought one off a blog sale a few days  ago. So when i was near my MAC store i went in and asked for a purply one, when i was trying them out in store they were really sticky and gloopy but i think its due to them being tested out all the time. I bought it and when i opened the box i saw this







 
A pink with a purple background.i could have looked it all day!
It smells of vanilla. It is quite sticky and not recommended for windy days. It lasts for ages! I went to bed and put some on(..weird)and i woke up in the morning and it was still there! not as sticky as when i put it on but still sparkly.


Heres a few lip swatches




(can't see the sparkle..thanks camera)
 
It nudes out my lips slightly and surprisingly but whenever i walk past a mirror i stop and move my head so i can see the sparkle or dazzle..lol. I was a bit secpitcal before buying because i thought i could go into boots and get one for half the price but no drugstore (that i've come across) has the gorgeousness of these!


I highly recommend these...even though i would only be able to buy one or two at a time they are a lovely treat! I've already searched through ebay and ordered Stop! Look! and i've brought baby Sparks from Loraine!'s blog sale so stay tuned for more excuses for you to go buy one! :P

boots order and notd!

Heres my recent boots order.. i ordered loreal derma genesis day cream, loreal paris double extension with the serum mascara, sexy mother pucker lip plumper in nude, batiste blush dry shampoo and maybelline lipstick in ambre rose.

The day cream had £5 off making it £10.95, mascara had £3 off making it £7.76!! 



I got a sample of the day cream and it really illuminated my face and made it feel smoother but a sample warning they put a higher concentration of ingredients in the samples. However the full size still illumiates my skin but not as much as the sample. 
So far i love the mascara as it has got every single eyelash and given them a good amount of length but i hope the serum makes them grow!!
 

 Heres the swatches of the lip plumper in nude and Ambre Rose lipstick. 
Sexy mother pucker is a little more brown than nude but smells like chocolate and has a nice tingle feeling. I must say that my top lip is definatly bigger and i've only had it on for 15mins!
I love Ambre rose (recommended by Lollipop26) its a nice light pink with a sprinkle of gold through it!


and finally heres my notd

 

A light pink base with konad hearts all over! (took a long time but worth it!)

Konad review

I went to Nottingham to look at the Uni, had a walk around the town and found a stall selling konad!! yay! i bought the kids set for £20 got home and realised i could buy it online for £12.99!! 
darn but who needs money these days anyway! *cough*



But i love it! it came with 3 polishes (red, white and blue) a stamper, scrapper and 2 discs. It is a little tricky to use with the scraping the nail varnish off the pattern without smudging it everywhere but the pattern comes out perfect once you've mastered the scrape. Then its just a stamp and roll.
atm i have red hearts all over my nails and i wish i had 10 hands so i can do all the designs (im soo impatient!) If your into nail art, wanting to get started or bored with a plain colours i would definatly recommend these!
heres the link for this set for £12.99 and free postage!! (jeez £8 i could have spent on make up gone)


Thanks for reading!

MAC style black

YAY! its come to the uk!


here is what i got!! :)
(I saw they had it in the shop and i almost squealed with excitement)
Volcanic ash exfoliator, baby goth girl nail varnish and young punk eyeshadow!

I love the nail varnish but it does need 3 + coats to get an even finish.. but the colour makes up for that
but i do wish i had got a sample of the thermal mask because my store was sold out! in 1 day all the volcanic masks were gone...crazy!!

I really wanted to get one of the glimmerglasses (or whatever they are called) but i saw swatches and they were just gloss with a bit of glitter so i skipped them.
but yay style black.. i might go back and get some more :)


Thanks for reading!
