Review: MAC Hepcat and MAC Mulch

Yay more MAC eyeshadows!!!!!

From left to right: MAC eyeshadow in Hepcat and MAC eyeshadow in Mulch

Hepcat: Frost eyeshadow

I really do enjoy hepcat, I thought that it would have been more purple but it is according to my swatches, pink!! I think if you build it up it can be a light purple shade but because it is a frost, the swatch in the picture above was done with 7 swipes and you can see it still is very pink. But its a beautiful glittery colour and I like it all over the eyelid or as a crease colour! 

Mulch: Velvet eyeshadow

I cannot express how much I love Mulch! Its so soft, and velvety and easy to work with. The swatch above is just one swipe across the eyeshadow so as you can see its very pigmented. I LOVE doing gold smokey eyes with Mulch and it makes a great crease colour too. I would recommend this eyeshadow to everyone but it is quite a deep colour and shimmery so maybe not the best for mature or deep set eyes? If Im wrong let me know! :) 




Review: Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish

I love this nail polish, I actually have more of them but these two are my favourite.

Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish in Clear and Coralicious

Firstly, when the cap says 1 sec application, they mean 1 sec application! Its great how easy it is to apply and it literally takes around a minute to do both hands. I dont normally need more than a coat but they do look better with a couple of coats. 

Wearing Coralicious with Clear as a top coat.

They last well without chipping, I prefer them to any other nail polishes Ive tried recently, including the OPI sample mentioned below. I think I will be growing my collection :)

Lust Have It! June Edition

Ok I know Im a month late again with this post and have been a bit slack! But I am trying :)

I was sooo happy when I saw a purple bag this month, different to the blue one I got last month:


Firstly, there is this cool little gagdet:

Shade & Line 3 in 1 by Bloom

This is quite nice, I was actually surprised when I took the caps off! It features a crayon pencil, I have the blue one with glitter, a smudging tool and a eyeshadow wand, mine is silver metallic. 
I have seen these in Target, and have wondered if the brand was any good. Ive tried the eyeshadow and its quite good! The eyeliner does not seem to sit well on my waterline, maybe its just me but when I looked in the mirror 5 mins after applying it, it was nearly gone!


Lola by Marc Jacobs sample and L'Eau de Chloe by Chloe sample

I dont care what anyone says I love receiving these little perfume samples in my monthly bag! Lola is an amazing fragrance, It says that it have red grapefruit and pink peppercorn in it, whatever it is its amazing <3 wish I could afford the actual product because the bottle is amazing too! 
L'Eau de Chloe is also amazing of course, I think everyone knows how lovely Chloe perfumes are I dont really need to say anything! This one is very floral but subtle and not overpowering.

LonVitalite 24K Active Golden Yulan Oil Facial Mask and Gold Full Eye Mask

Im so excited to try these! Im saving them for this saturday, before getting dressed up for an awards night :) They are so squidgy, when I use them I will miss squeezing the packages! I can only imagine how nice they will feel on my face :) 

Batiste- Blush Dry Shampoo

Strangely enough, the day before I received my lust have it bag, I was in the local shop searching EVERYWHERE for some dry shampoo and could not find any whatsoever. So I was so relived when I received this handy little bottle which fits nicely in my handbag :) Always good, dont think I really need to say anything about this one everyone knows how amazing it is! Works like magic ;)
