Couldnt organize a piss up in a brewery

Well I was dead looking forward to reviewing all my new buys and i took photos but to my disgust i cant find the lead for my digital camera so il have to use downloaded photos im so annoyed.
Anyway Il start off with Revlon Colourstay Foundation.
I got 2 Colours, Nude and Fresh Beige. I wear them mixed together as the Nude is rather light and the Beige is quite pinky, although i think i could wear the nude alone. I usually wear MACS Select SPF 15 in NW20 and find this, in terms of colour just in the middle of the 2. In terms of consistency Revlon's Colourstay is ALOT thicker and doesn't stretch as far as the MAC Select which is a bit disappointing but its only drug store make up and i guess thicker is better for winter. Over all I do like it, but i think i will still end up reaching for the MAC when going out.

Ok next up Loreal Studio Secrets Smoothing and Resurfacing Primer.
I have only been using this for 2 days so i cant really say if i hate it or love it right now, i like the consistency of it, kind of like a rubbery foam but i don't feel it resurfaces my face at all, yes i like they way it leaves it feel but i don't think my face looks smoother, saying that i don't have craters all over my face. Im going to cary on using it but i would quite like to get the GOSH primer as well, as well as trying a smashbox one. But for £10 (in the sale) i don't think Loreal Studio Secrets is much to complain about.

I also got Maybelline Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara.
I dont have much to say about this, I hate it.
I cant work with thin brushes like the head on this they just make my eyelashes clump and look like spiders legs, I know they are ment to give the false lash effect but i think it gives me the "7 year old playing with mascara" look. Im going to cary on using it as much as I can, maybe with practise il be able to work the thing. I think I would like this if it was a vibrating version of Benefit's Bad Gal Lash which i love.

Fcuk Eye and Lip Palette
Like my title for this post says, im useless. I havent tried this yet but the colours are so pretty and are quite well pigmented when i done swatches on my hand (which i cant get the photos for sorry). This was only £8 in the little christmas gift bit of boots, i really like the pinks and purples of this palette and its not very expensive. You get 18 eye shadows and 6 lip glosses.
I will find a picture for you all to see.

Lastly MAC EYESHADOW IN RICEPAPER.
Sarah got this for me in plymouth a few weeks ago and I finally got it today! when I first saw it i thought it might look a bit like All that glitters but then when i got it home it is nothing at all like it which is good, i dont know why on earth i thought they would be similar? a moment of madness maybe. Anyway i cant wait to use it tomorrow as im rocking the natural colour lid with darker liner and lashes this week.

its been a while

Well my blogging was useless I forgot my password, therefor could not blog anything.
I dont get to use my actual computer very much due to my boyfriend forever being on it, but i will from now make a solum effort to blog more, not that my life is interesting but there you go it keeps me occupiedo.

So much to write about but so little time (must for once try to be at work on time in the morning) Iv been a tad ill the past week with my athsma but for the first time for about five days iv been able to breath joy! anyway to perk me up mother brought be a nice little drugstore haul consisting of
  • 2 Revlon Colour Stay foundations
  • An Fcuk lip and eye pallet (boots christmas gifts out already!)
  • Maybelline Pulse perfection mascara
  • A little tin of Vaseline (not exciting i know, but essential)
I will blog again possibly tomorrow with updates of this and swatches of the pallet and foundation, I swear if i wasn't such a let down in the face and voice department id do a vlog so much easier.

One more little ramble before I go...............
OMG how much do i love Twilight! until yesterday i had no desire to watch it and had no obsession with vampires like everyone else seems to (zombies are more my thing) BUT i started to read Twilight yesterday and its finished and im already on new moon and have brought the dvd, i wont watch it till i have read all the books though. I cant believe i love it so much i really didn't think i would but by chapter five i already loved the Cullen....... not as much as a Henry but still.
Anyway updates tomorrow xxx
