Make Up Revolution - Golden Sugar Review

I can't live without blush and if I did i'd look like a ghost! Those of you who haven't yet tried Make Up Revolution...please do, this palette is a good place to start! The brand it's self is incredibly affordable and yet some of the best quality product I have ever used. This time around I'm reviewing the Golden Sugar Blush palette and I honestly fell in love with it before even using it. 

If you are looking for a golden goddess look, search no more! 

It's gorgeous to look at, the colours in this palette are immensely lush! The 6 shades are each incredibly pigmented which you don't often find in bargain makeup - the quality is that of something a lot more pricey. 

What I really love about this palette is the combination of bronzer, highlighter and blush - great for those that are always on the move as its' all in one and ready to go or if you are looking for a diverse set of shades this is it! 

Shade breakdown: (See below for HD pictures)

1 - A nice silky highlight, great for brightening up the cheeks for a dewy glow.

2 - Shimmery sugary pink which creates a nice touch of colour on the cheek, a little goes a long way! 

3 - Similar to the second shade but not as shimmery nice for a slightly toned down look 

4- Slightly orange in colour good use as a contour but may not work on paler skin tones, has a nice warm feel to the shade. 

5 - A nice light satin finish great use as a contour or bronzer

6 - Beautiful shimmer to the shade really gives my cheeks a dewy sense of colour 

7 - Has a coppery bronze finish nice as a bronzer has a slight hint of orange to it 

8 - A matte shade good for contouring it's slightly dark for me so no need to use too much but very diverse. 

Overall I am a huge fan of this brand it's affordable so if you are on a budget there is no need to miss out on quality and it's also very current, a easy to use palette with shades that help you create the latest looks.

I hope this post has been helpful and pretty to look at! If you haven't already, don't forget to follow my blog so you don't miss out!

Urban Decay Naked Compact Powder Review

I can no longer live without a pressed or compact powder,its a huge part of my make up routine and I'm a huge routine fanatic! This time you'll be reading about my take on the Urban Decay Naked Skin compact powder, I'm rather excited.

The Naked range is fabulous, it's all about looking natural and perfect without that caked on and heavy makeup look, I'm sure you all know that cakey is not sexy. This particular powder is the sister that works along side the Naked Skin Liquid foundation but to be honest I've used it with my MAC and numerous foundations - I'm such a rebel. The idea of this powder is to help minimise and blur any imperfections whilst being lightweight. 

I've been using the powder everyday for the last 2 to 3 weeks and I can honestly say there isn't a bad thing to say about it and here's why...

It blended immaculately over my foundation leaving a smooth finish and most importantly my skin was left lovely and soft. You could see where it had been applied to the skin as it left an even finish. Its very easy for a powder to appear quite unsubtle on the skin however, this particular product was very incognito - in a less fancy description it was like you didn't even apply it. Naked is defiantly a keyword.

One characteristic many of you may look for in a product is how long wearing it is, for me personally the longer wearing it is the better. I often purchase foundations that are able to last throughout the day but sometimes that isn't always the case - hence, why I'm so hooked on compacts. The Naked compact really lengthened out the time my foundation lasted for, put it this way I came home after a 9 hour shift and my skin still looked fresh.

It provides a semi-matte finish which is great for that natural look and what I also love how effortless it is to use, who wants to wake up at 6 am and have to use a product that doesn't do what its meant to? Not me!! It doesn't sit in lines and most importantly it doesn't leave the skin looking patchy.

To top everything off the packaging is gorgeous, it comes in a floral bag that is rather fancy. If you're a girl on the go the compact comes with a mirror and application sponge if you wanted a touch up. 

All in all I think this is the cats pyjamas lol!

Guerlain Les Voilettes compact powder

Isn't it a beauty? I loved taking photos of the product - its absolutely gorgeous! Guerlain have some of the most appealing styles of packaging I've personally seen.

This time I'm going to be giving you my review on the Guerlain Les Voilettes compact face powder. I am now a lover of face powders whereas before for some crazy reason I wasn't - no wonder my face always looked so shiny (not a cool look, trust me) 

This particular powder is translucent - my favourite of all. What I love is how it sits on my skin, it has this caring and classy quality to it. Once applied it leaves this invisible yet airbrushed finish, no-one would know that you've applied a compact unless you told them. Maybe I've fallen in love with it a little bit, ok a lot!!!  In all seriousness this product delivers, its weightless, loving and most of all flawless. I also love the fact that it doesn't mask your face and how versatile it works with different foundations yet still conveys its attributes. I find it even blends without an effort and there's no worry of it not working along side any blushers or bronzers as it helps make them look natural too.
As it's so light I've had no issues of it sitting in any lines either - Yay!

Another fantastic quality to this is the smell, it reveals a very light perfume scent. It's not over powering at all but even the smell feels like your skin is being cared for.

Apart from the quality of the product the packaging is a winner too, its classy, pricey looking and to be quite frank I want to show it off (see below) It comes with a little black pocket which really finishes this product off in terms of its looks, you can really tell how much Guerlain take pride in the smaller details.

If you're looking for a product to mattify your foundation as well as helping it last all day this is something I suggest you try. I often have my foundation on for at least 12 hours and using this powder really helps keep the shine at bay.

Yes, it is £35 for 6.5 grams but it's of the highest quality powder I have yet to try. Its available in 3 shades - light, medium and intense.

Really hope you have enjoyed this read.
