Drugstore foundations can be hit or miss, sometimes the shade range isn’t great or they oxidise. But very rarely have NYX been a miss for me, so when they launched the Can’t Stop Won’t Stop foundation last year, with the matte formula I knew it would be up my street.

No matter what the price, you either love a product or can live without it. When it comes to the drugstore makeup, it’s no secret that there can be some absolute gems on the shelves. Beating their high end counterpart. So after reorganising my collection again, I thought I would share a few products I can’t live without!
A little while ago I posted a comparison review of the NYX Matte Liquid Liner vs Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, which you guys really enjoyed. So as I was still on the hunt for a new holy grail eyeliner to replace the Tattoo Liner I decided to try the NYX Epic Ink liner as I had also seen really good reviews about this drugstore liner and it had also been compared to Tattoo Liner.

Hello everyone! I hope you are all smashing your week! I have had the Becca Aqua Luminous Concealer for a while and had been meaning to write this post fo a while. For a while I was on the hunt for a high end concealer, I wanted to treat myself and whilst I was in Edinburgh last summer I finally found one that matched my skin tone, you can see what other goodies I got here. As someone who has a pale complexion with a neutral undertone, it can be difficult to find a pale concealer that isn’t yellow or pink toned. Many high end brands seem to do two pale concealers – one with a yellow undertone and the other pink. Or that are just look orange on me. So when Becca’s Aqua Luminous was a match I knew it was meant to be.

Ignoring the fact that I am constantly late to beauty band wagon, a while ago I bought the NYX Tame and Frame Brow Pomade as I figured it was about time I jumped on the pomade hype. I always thought that brow pomades would make my beauty routine longer, plus I wasn’t sure if I would like how a pomade would look on my brows compared to pencils. But there was only one way to find out!

When I went to Bath last year I perused the isles of T.K. Maxx, usually when I go to T.K. Maxx the products have all be swatched or taken out of the packaging and stolen. Usually I never really find anything in T.K. Maxx however this time my luck had changed!

Hello everyone, recently I picked up some more goodies from Topshop as part of being a brand ambassador! This is my second order of beauty from the Topshop range, you can see what I tried first from the range here! I was so impressed with the first few products I tried I was really looking forward to trying some more! There are so many things to try from the range I really had to narrow it down to a handful of items! All Topshop beauty is cruelty free and ranges from £5-£16, which is a bargain!

Hello everyone and happy Valentines Day! I hope you all have a fab Valentines no matter if your single or in a relationship. I have spent my day curled up at home as I had my wisdom tooth taken out yesterday. So I’m feeling a little sorry for myself! Anyway, today I am back with another comparison review of a high end and drugstore product! After I finished a tube of Urban Decays Primer Potion I thought I would try a drugstore version of an eye base. I was curious to see if the drugstore version would be as good as the Urban Decay base. I decided to try the NYX HD Eyeshadow base.

Recently whilst perusing the isles of Boots, always a dangerous thing to do, I noticed Sleek had a new concealer out, the LifeProof concealer. I was looking to try a new concealer after repurchasing the NYX HD Concealer 4 times. I have Sleek’s LifeProof foundation for my makeup kit for uni and it’s a good foundation. So I swatched a few shades that were available and decided to pick one up.
