Hey loves! So for todays post I have decided to do another review, this time on the Smashbox 24 hour photo finish shadow primer. Now that title is definitely a mouthful. There are lots of eyeshadow primers on the market at the moment and I only ever seem to hear people raving about the urban decay one (which I personally haven't tried, but would love to hear your thoughts on, in the comments). Most eye shadow primers, if not all, claim to prevent your eyeshadow from creasing, prolong its longevity and also make your eyeshadows look more vibrant.

Now I have to say, this primer is pretty dang good. It's the first one I've ever tried so I'm unable to compare it with any others, however I can say that it does everything it's supposed to! You have to use the tiniest amount as a little definitely goes a long way.

When I first applied this it was very smooth and easy to apply to the eyes and I didn't use a powder or eyeshadow to set, which you should definitely do. Without setting it the eyeshadows dragged a lot and were very hard to blend, however even then the pigmentation was definitely a lot better. Once I tried setting it, the shadows were so easy to blend and work with.

I can't vouch for the fact that it lasts for 24 hours however I can say that it definitely makes your eyeshadows stay on and look the same as when you first applied them for at least 6 hours.

I hope this review helped you decide as to whether you should purchase it, I would definitely recommend you do so! If you have any suggestions, or products you'd like for me to do a post about, feel free to either email me or leave it in the comments.

Smashbox: 24 hour photo finish eyshadow primer.

Hey loves! So for todays post I have decided to do another review, this time on the Smashbox 24 hour photo finish shadow primer. Now...

Hey loves, so today I've decided to do a review on the sleek matte me liquid lipsticks. Now I know that these have been out for quite a while now and the hype behind them seems to have died down a bit. However I'm still in love with them and cant wait to share my favourite shades with you!

These formulas you guyssssssss!!! If I had heart-eyed Emojis right now I'd be using a ton. They're so soft and creamy to apply and dry into a matte finish pretty quickly and also doesn't leave your lips feeling sticky like some liquid lipsticks do. Although I do have to say they feel a bit thick and you are able to feel them on your lips, unlike the Nyx lip lingeries. The packaging is very simple and sleek (pun intended), which I love. I'm obsessed with very clean and neat looking packaging which is exactly what this has. The price is AMAZING! You're getting 6ml, which is 0.21 floz for the £4.99...I mean come on, why are you still reading this and not going out to buy them?!

Top to Bottom: Old Hollywood, Rioja Red, Velvet Slipper and Birthday Suit.

Sleek offers 15 different shades, ranging from light nudes, to dark purples. Although the nude shades are very beautiful and apply very nicely, I do have to say that the more darker colours are a little bit patchy when you only apply one coat, this is expected with most darker shades and the same problem occurred with the kylie lip kit in the shade "Kourt k". The patchiness can be avoided by using a lip liner before applying the liquid lipstick.

If you guys have any other products you'd like for me to review, I'd be more than happy to do so, just leave me a comment below and I'll get back to you soon.

Sleek: Matte Me Liquid Lipsticks.

Hey loves! So for my first post I thought I'd give you an insight into my addiction to Nyx cosmetics. Nyx is such an affordable brand which stocks high quality products, whilst still being a drugstore brand. Some of their products I would consider to be at the higher end of the drugstore prices scale, however quality-wise they're worth every penny.

Top to Bottom: Teddy, Exotic, Ruffle Trim, Abu Dhabi, Stockholm and Budapest.

I picked up some of the soft matte lip crèmes in: Abu Dhabi (MY FAVOURITE!!), Stockholm and Budapest. They so smooth and creamy on the lips, and also smell amazing which is just a bonus! After seeing all of the hype behind the lip lingerie's I also decided to pick three of them up, in the shades ruffle trim, which is such a beautiful nude, teddy, which is more of a browny nude, and exotic, a sophisticated shade of pink.

Left to right: Sweet Cloud, Colour Riot and Daring Damsel.

I also bought two of the Full throttle eyeshadow quads in "daring damsel" and "colour riot". These shades you guys!!!! They're so pretty and pigmented, exactly what I'd expect from Nyx shadows. I purchased one of the Nyx lid lingerie's in the shade "sweet cloud". Oh my God! I have no idea why these aren't raved about that much!! They're so creamy and smooth and the colour payoff is amazing.

If you'd like for me to do an in-depth review of any of the products feel free to comment down below and I'd be more than happy to do so!
