Well good day to you all, and to all, good day!

Recently, I have been hearing a lot about the Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquers (try saying that three times fast!) Although its a bit of a mouthful to say, they have been hugely hyped up. I have heard that they are as good as similar high-end products, and as I'm a nosey little bee, I thought I'd see what all the buzz was about (see what I did there).

So I moseyed on down to Boots, and had a little look at the selection. To be honest, there didn't seem to be a huge colour range. There is 8 colours, but to me they all looked pretty similar. Mostly bright pinks and reds, but I did find a lovely peachy colour. I have looked online, and the colours that are shown up on the Boots website don't look too much like the actual colours, so if you are interested, then I would advise you go to your local Rimmel counter.

After having a brief look at the colours, I picked up two, Stellar (a bright redish pink) and Luna (a peachy colour) At a price £5.99, I thought that was pretty reasonable, considering how wonderful I have heard they are.

 

I have worn both colours, and think that the Apocalips Lip Lacquer's are worth the hype. They are comfortable like a gloss, but have the pigment of a lipstick. This prodict is litterally like a melted down lipstick. The clour pay-off is amazing for a lipgloss. I really like LUNA, Its such a pretty colour, and I think it would look good on all skin tones. I do like STELLAR, but on me its just a bit too bright. I like bright lips, but because i'm so pale it just washes me out. The only thing I would be warey about when applying is the amount of product you use. the wand has a little dip in it, so it carried lots of product, but I would say just use a little to begin with, and then you can build it up for a brighter colour.

 

I would highly recommend this lip product, cause its really good! I hope you have found this useful and if you have any questions or want to chat, just leave me a comment!

 

Thanks for reading, LOVEYOUBYEEEEEEEEEE xxx

 

-As always, I am not being paid to do this review (owh) so all opinions are honest ones - HONEST! -

Just a little review...

Hello my little sweet peas!

Today I thought I would do a small review of some mascaras that have been tried and tested by the best (me tehe). I have always loved mascara, well ever since I started wearing makeup, and because I'm not Honey-BooBoo, it was more like in my teen years. Over the years i have tried lots of mascaras, and haven't really found anything that I LOVE. I have liked some of them, but have then wanted to try something different, to see if I can get something better.

Now, I really like Benefit as a brand. Their makeup is fun, but is also really good. I heard that the 'They're Real' mascara was really good, so I handed over my £18.50 and got me one. I think this is one of the best mascaras out there. It gave my lashes real volume and length, but it wasn't clumpy. The formula was light and quite liquid, so it really worked on my lashes. It stayed well on my lashes, it didn't break down, however, I did find that it transferred after a bit of wear. Keeping in mind that I have oily eye-lids (sounds gross, I know...), mascaras don't often last well on me. This one really did and I have loved it. Is it worth the money? maybe. I think its for you to decide. It is one of those things that I really wish I loved it more, but I just don't. Its really REALLY good, but not perfect. I would totally reccomend this mascara as it is rather fab!

 

Second, we have this bad boy.

 

Next, we have the Collection (used to be Collection 2000, hmm, what ever happened to the 2000?) 'Big Fake Ultimate false lash effect' mascara. Because it is a drugstore mascara and it was only £5.99, I wasn't expecting too much from this product, but I had heard that it was really good, so i was looking forward to trying it. The first thing i noticed about this mascara was the size of the wand. OH MY GOLLY GOSH it is big (that's what she said). This mascara does indeed give you very full volumous lashes. BUT (I think we all saw that coming) it just didn't last on me. After a few hours wear I had panda eyes, which to be honest, only looks cute on a panda. I was really dissapointed after hearing such great things about this product, but I guess its just one of those things, eh? If you have dry eyelids (is that a thing? basically not oily eyelids) this may well be the mascara for you, but from my own experience with it, I would not reccomend it to you.

 

The third and final mascara I'm reviewing is my favourite. I have definatly saved the best till last.

Ker-pow! yes, it is the Maybelline 'The Rocket volum' express' waterproof mascara. I opted to get the waterproof formula, as I seem to have trouble keeping mascara on my lashes and off my face. This mascara is honestly the best I have ever tried. My lashes look full and long and just great. Its not clumpy and it lasts. Removing this mascara isn't bad either, considering most waterproof mascaras seem to be makeup remover proof aswell, it comes off easily. I am mightely impressed with you Maybelline! This mascara does exactly what it says and more! (well, not much more, but its really good - yay!) I am now happy, and at peace because I now have a good mascara. As you can probably tell, I would definatly recommend it. At only £7.99, it is a real bargin - GO GET ONE NOW!

 

Thats all for today, I hope you have found this useful. Until next time, BYEEEEEEE xxxxx

Hi there stranger

Why hello there,

I know we haven't met before, but I think its about time we did. My name is Rachel, whats yours? I thought it would be a nice idea to start a blog. I really like all things beauty (I'm OBSESSED) so I often find myself buying new products. I thought it would be a good idea to review them, so none of you lovely people waste your hard earned cash. I might do some more lifestyle posts too, just about issues or other things I might want to share with you.

I hope you enjoy these posts. Although I can't promise they will be fabulous, I will do my upmost to make them so.

Well I think that's all for now, so I will wish you a wonderful day and lots of love to you, my newest friend. I would also like to thank you for visiting my little blog, and if blogs could talk, this one would be saying 'thankyouuuu' in a really cute voice.

Byebye for now xxx
