Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder

Hi Guys, I bought this powder a few weeks ago and have been using it everyday in my daily make-up routine. I'd seen this powder in Boots and was always wondering whether to buy it or not but then I started watching Tanya Burr's YouTube videos (check her channel out HERE) and she mentioned it a lot in her videos and I was able to see how to get full use out of the product and as it was only £3.99 I went out and bought it. 

To start of the packaging isn't exactly eye catching as its just a clear lid and then the product but it is a cheaper powder and it does the job. There is only one slight thing about this product with the packaging and that is its not very travel friendly as the lid does not lock on its simply a slide on lid so if you were to put it into your bag the lid could easily slip off.

I've got shade 003 Peach Glow and I love the product as when you put the product onto your face it doesn't make your skin orange or give your face a 'cakey' look though next time I think I'll buy the transparent one. On the packaging it says 'Natural shine control' and it really does help I noticed that when I applied my foundation mainly my T zone would look slightly shiny so I tried this product on the mainly shiny parts and it really does help. This powder is really lightweight on your face and after reading a bit more about this product on the boots website I've found out that it says ' it is free of fragrance, oils, parabens and talc, and because it won't clog pores' which to me I think is a real bonus.

I apply this with a Real Techniques bronzer brush as this brush is too big for me to use as a bronzer I'm able to dab the powder onto the brush and smoothly apply the powder. Once this product runs out I'll defiantly be buying it again and I recommend buying it.

MAC Heavenly Creatures Mineralize Eye Shadows.

I was looking through my cousins make up as her make up box is like heaven to me and I came across these amazing eye shadows by MAC though they were only limited edition since I went online to find them and couldn't so she will have to be prepared for me borrowing them. I love the way that this product looks my favourite is the blue one which is bright moon. I love how MAC have made the eyeshadows look with the swirls of different colours within the eye shadow, I just had to show you all these beauties.

No7 Exquisite Curl Mascara

I'm forever searching for a good mascara as I'm looking for a mascara that will give my eyelashes length and thickness. Before I bought this mascara I'd been using Maybelline Colosal mascara but the brush was too thick for me and I always end up getting the mascara on my eyelid which is always a pain so I was on the hunt for a new type of brush and brand. I've used a No7 mascara before when I was in school as I wanted a natural lash look but with slight volume so I knew what type of quality I would be getting.

I've tried a mascara that claimed to curl your lashes and make them look better though it was the worst mascara that I've bought I think it was a collection 2000 mascara I can't remember, though I read reviews about this mascara before I bought it so I could make out whether I'd be wasting my money or not anyway back to the mascara. 

I love this mascara as when I apply it too my lashes I don't get a mass of the formula onto my lashes which is what I got with my Maybelline mascara also I'm able to apply the mascara without getting lots of clumps onto my lashes and the formula coats the lashes well. I have the Brown/Black colour which is my own mistake I wish that I'd  have picked the black colouring however this colour still gives good coverage and you can't tell that it is brown when its on the lashes. I also really like the brush of this mascara as it isn't a large brush its the perfect size for grabbing each lash. This mascara is sold at Boots for £11.00, the link is HERE I'll defiantly buy this again.
