5 Products I Would Re-Purchase

Image
I test out a lot of make up. Even though I don't get sent anything I have a tendency to buy anything that says new or limited edition on it. I obviously can't love everything that comes out or even if I do, there are some staple products in my collection that are just things I cannot live without.  Still Stay All Day Waterproof Eyeliner - This eyeliner in my opinion is the best I have tried, and I have been wearing eyeliner ever since I was in high school. So I would say about 8 years of nearly everyday wear. I know what works for me personally and what doesn't. My eyes I would say are partially hooded, so you can still see some lid space. This eyeliner glides on and lasts all day. If I am working 8+ hours it looks exactly like it did in the morning. The only downside which people might have (but I don't really mind) is that it's more of a satin finish rather than matte. I don't mind as its easy felt tip applicator and its also lasts for months. ...

American Beauty Haul

You might have seen in a previous blog post that I had made a Shop and Box order, and after my final payment it came within two days. Yes, no joke two days. I received my order in two separate boxes just so that the shipping costs wouldn't be as much. Personally I wouldn't make another shop and box order just because I think I got what I wanted from the States for a while. The first item I put on my wishlist was the Lorac Pro Palette. I am going to make a separate blog post all about this palette and my opinion on it. I will however touch on the primer quickly. I think that it rivals the urban decay primer that it has a tint of colour and although the urban decay primer is a little more silky, the loran primer is a little sticky. Some people won't like this however I think that its great for shadows that have glitter chunks and even if you want to build intensity of a lid shade without spraying a little fix plus into the mix. I cannot comment on longevity, but I ha...

My Shop And Box Order

Being in the Uk I lust over all of the amazing cosmetic brands in America, and other parts of the world. Why is everything that you want so hard to get? I follow a lot of make up inspiration accounts on Instagram and see all of these photos on Pinterest and I decided that I wanted to make a Shop and Box order.  Shop and Box is a website that connects you to several people from around the world that will be able to buy your items for you and ship it to your address. You pay invoice 1 which is the cost off all the items you want to buy, then there is invoice two which is the shoppers fee and the postage to yourself. Throughout the whole process you are able to message the boxer (the person who buys your items) and they can update you on when they went to get your products and so on and so forth. My experience took a little longer than expected as my boxer got involved in a car crash, however her and her son are now ok, so I still haven't received my items yet, however they have ...
