L'Oreal Color Riche Eyeshadows

I got those eyeshadows a while ago but only recently started using them, great to wear during the day. I quite  like the beige/brown shades so turns out it was a good buy for me. I now wish I started using them the day I got them. They are really pigmented, so the colour lasts for hours without fading or creasing. They've got a little shimmer to them but it's not overpowering, just the right amount. The product applies very smoothly and blends easily. They need a primer to hold the colour, but I don't mind that cause I always use a primer anyway. They are better to apply with fingers, I noticed that the brush doesn't get enough product and the fallout is quite big. There are pros and cons to this product but overall I like it, don't think I will get more shades though because there's so many other eyeshadows I want to try. It could cost a little less too.

Maybelline Master Shape Brow

I was surprised to find quite a few negative reviews about this product, but it works really well for me. I've seen a lot of complaints about sharpening it, but not had that problem myself just yet (only sharpened it a little once).  I only just started getting into eyebrow pencils about a year or so ago, so I didn't try that many just yet. Before I got Maybelline's Master Shape Brow I was using MUA's one but I wasn't impressed with it, and the same goes for Rimmel's brow pencil unfortunately. I'm glad I decided to try this one out as I find it best I had so far. It's got a waxy consistency and applies smoothly, it leaves a natural look and helps to keep my brows in place for hours (longest I had it on was 8h). My eyebrows are nicely shaped and filled thanks to this product. However, I will still keep an eye out and maybe get a couple of high end brow products just to see if they would work better than drugstore ones, but so far Maybelline one is my favourite.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains

I was thinking about Just Bitten Kissable for a while now but something was always holding me back for some reason. Now that I've tried (and loved) Max Factor's lip pencils I decided it was time to try Revlon ones. And I so wish I tried them ages ago, they are brilliant. However, I'm not too impressed with the colour range, well not the one we have here in the UK - I love the shades they have in the US (that was probably one of the reasons I didn't get Just Bitten Kissable earlier, I was looking for the colours that were only available in America, silly me). Anyway, enough complaining. When I swatched it in store it seemed quite sheer but once I applied it on I got the exact colour the stick contains. It smells minty, which is cool but I was never a big fan of it. Also, it has a twist up mechanism - amazing, it's so handy and convenient, I hate when while sharpening the sharpener gets to the writing of the product. The lip stains are very moisturizing and blend in really easily, they are also buildable so you decide how intense you want the colour to be. The staying power is good too, they last for hours, however they need touching up every now and then. Overall, the product itself is great and I will get a few more shades, but I wish they smelt different and I wish there was more colours to choose from.

Lush Lip Scrubs

I know I'm a little behind with this, but I finally got the famous Lush lip scrubs. It got so much hype I couldn't wait to get my hands on it for ages and now that I have I'd love to join the fan base. I have tried them before but never got round to buying. Anyway, it saved my life. My lips weren't in the best state and thanks to Lush they are only getting better now. It is a little expensive but on the other hand, so worth the money. I was actually never so sure I would re-purchase something as I am about these products. They taste and smell amazing, I can't stop saying how impressed I am with these two little pots. I also like that they are a little heavier than other lip products. The only disadvantage would be the price, as I said.

Max Factor Colour Elixir Giant Pen Sticks

I've been waiting to get these for quite a while (well, since I heard Max Factor was bringing them out), but my local Boots didn't have the shades I wanted, as per usual. But I managed to get them at last and oh my days, they are amazing. Also I really wanted to get a lip product in a pen stick form but couldn't find any I would like, so these little beauties put a big smile on my face. I might just get the rest of the collection since Boots is having 3 for 2 offer. In fact I'm planning a massive haul because they have it on all of the makeup at the moment so you can mix brands and not just items within a specific brand, happy days. Anyway, back to the products. The only worry for me is that they have to be sharpened, they don't have a twist up mechanism. But that's only a small detail and it doesn't bother me too much because they are such good quality. They all have a moisturizing finish with a lovely gloss. Plus they last for ages and the colour you see is what you get. The shades I got are Passionate Red, Subtle Coral and Princess Rose and the red one is my definite favourite. First red I actually like. The sticks are definitely worth their price tag.
