MASCARA
The mascara everyone's going on about- or should be. This mascara has literally given my stubborn lashes some life! On the days I'm not wearing any lashes but looks like I am, I am wearing this baby right here. It really is a must have drugstore mascara. It gives volume, length and the perfect 'false lash' effect with only 1 or 2 coats.
CONTOUR KIT

Although this is a foundation brush, I've not really tried it with any as I always prefer to use my trusty beauty blender. I love using this to draw and blend out my contour and finish off with my Real Techniques contour brush from the core range. This allows you to draw the perfect line on the jawline, cheeks, temples and nose- a great dupe for the high end Nars and Illamasqua contour brushes.
EXFOLIATOR
This has been a favourite of mine since last month, but I thought I'd use it for at least an entire month to see how my skin reacts to it. It works as an exfoliator and removes the dead layer of skin. As my skin is a little sensitive, I use the brush every other day and I noticed a difference in a skin within a week. A full review will be up soon!
NECKLACE
A spontaneous yet happy purchase. I'm loving chunky necklaces at the moment, not only do they look chic but they change up an outfit so quickly with no effort at all. This ones definitely a keeper.
LIPS
One of my go-to bold lipstick, great for tanned and dark complexions. It's a browny, brick red tone with a satin finish but I pat it with a little translucent powder for a matte finish (which I LOVE) and with the powder, it lasts a good 5-6 hours.
Multipurpose lip liner that can be used for the lips and eyes although this is a very deep pink so I personally only use it as a lip liner. It is extremely pigmented, creamy, stays on for a good 5-6 hours and the shade is so in right now. You definitely need to use a very good makeup remover to get this off your lips, even the swatch was a struggle to remove with just water! *available in 12 shades

BROWS
For the last 3-4 months, I've been growing out my brows. This meant no threading, no plucking and no waxing, you can imagine my frustration :Z I've been very consistent in applying castor oil on my brows every night with a disposable spooly to encourage growth, and YES it has worked wonders! Since its transformation, I've been filling in the sparse areas with this amazing creamy pomade and it's really given my brows life! It's so easy to work with and control and as it's extremely pigmented, a little does go a long way. 5 stars from me ABH :)
