Tweet A little while ago I did a haul on Adambeauty.com for some Esprique make up! Esprique is a Japanese brand, and used to be Esprique Precious before it was upgraded to a sleeker, black look. The range is in the mid-high price range and is aimed at older women (as in not teenagers) but they’re not boring either! I bought an eyeshadow palette (Blend Dimensional Eyes Deep) in B-3 which is an unusual pink brown palette and a Mellow {Read More}
Tweet It’s funny how you can love a brand then you sort of forget about them? It’s like that with Shu Uemura. I’m not tempted by any of their new releases at all – why is that? Their Rouge Unlimited Supreme Shine lipsticks are though – completely gorgeous but absolutely not faultless. Annoying, eh? Still a week or so ago I treated myself to a new lipstick from the collection (and I forgot what other shades I had so had {Read More}
Tweet It was Marina from Makeupforall who I first saw mention that Revlon Moon Drops lipstick (not out in the UK) in Persian Melon 585 was used in the American TV series, Pan Am. Marina’s post about beauty inspired by the series is here. Pan Am is a series about the Air Hostesses who work for the once illustrious airline…I admit I saw 3 shows and it wasn’t for me – beautiful to look at but somewhat lacking is substance. {Read More}
Tweet Coffret D’or Bright Up Rouge Creamy Long Lasting Lipstick (a mouthful) is one of CD’s newest lip colour releases. This lip colour is a creamy liquid lipstick, with a very soft texture and is supposed to stay put on the lips. I randomly chose RS-269 which is a warm rose – in hindsight I should’ve went for a cooler toned mauve rose (one of my favourite types of shades ever) but there you go, I am trying new things {Read More}
Tweet Hope Girl is a Korean cosmetic and skincare brand that I recently discovered whilst browsing eBay! I was suckered in my the leopard print packaging. I purchased 4 of their ‘Milky Balm Lipsticks’ because they are supposed to have a creamy hydrating texture: They come in boxes like this. There’s something a bit dated about them but oh well, we’re not here for the boxes! These lipsticks are quite pigmented which is unusual as a lot of Asian {Read More}
Tweet Recently, I was sorting out my pigments for the blog sale (this Saturday people!) and ended up with about 6 empty containers. So I went to MAC to claim my free lipstick! Rather than going for something wacky,which is what I always do I decided to pick something I knew I would wear. I am madly in love with Angel from MAC – it’s one of the few MAC lipsticks I adore but it was a bit wobbly and {Read More}
Tweet Good Morning Ladies! It’s a Monday! I am away for the rest of the week (yay!) but I will have a blog sale preview list for you tomorrow (trust me it’s been hard work) and hopefully posts scheduled for the rest of the week. Bear with me! So, I have these four super nude semi matte lipsticks from Kiss Me’s Heavy Rotation range to quickly review. I’ve had these for a few months and it’s taken me this long {Read More}
Tweet One of Etude House’s newest releases is Nymph Aura. This was released early Autumn but I’ve only had a chance to review it now! The Nymph Aura collection is quite small and consists of 2 primers, 2 lipsticks, 2 lip glosses, 2 tint blush gels and some other random pieces (like a loose powder and a 3pc nail polish set). It’s a very pretty, delicate feel range although and the name, Nymph Aura has that sort of etherial feel {Read More}
