E.L.F & Trinket Newbies.

Hey dolls, 
I got word that e.l.f ( eyes lips and face) were having a small sale, I got excited at the thought of cheap make - up. The sale seemed as though all the good stuff was already gone and the remaining items were things you'd never buy.

I've been wanting to try cream eyeliners for sooo long I just never took the plunge. We sell the Bobbi Brown black gel eyeliner on board but for the price, I thought if I didn't like it I'd be pretty cheesed of for paying so much for it. Any ways I got this in 'Gunmetal' and for a pocket friendly £1.
I was really impressed with it, the colour is very deceptive, because in the pot it looks grey, but on the swatch it appeared a warm metallic golden brown. * That description made no sense,  hope you got my drift* lol
On the eyes I've been wearing it during the daytime with a thin coat on the eyelid and it looks like a toned down black.  I build it up on my night out with friends last night for an amazing smokey eye.
 I also wanted to try out a stipple brush which you use to apply liquid foundation, this gives the perfect coverage alongside my 'Make Up Forever- liquid  foundation #18'. 
 This powder brush is soft for the £2.50 price tag, I've previously tried topshop's powder brush and its nothing in comparison to this beauty. Its a full brush and made my 'MAC- Mineralize skin finish natural' powder last for the majority of my flight. 
 I bought this white eye widener for around £1.50, its meant to make your eyes appear fuller/bigger and help brighten them up when placed on the lower waterline. Ermmmm, yea but I beg to differ!!!! The quality/texture of the pencil was quite soft and mushy and big chunks kept breaking off into my eye whilst I was applying it, my eyes then became irritated and turnt red (excuse the french) FML.. it was a utter shambles. The dream of having eyes like Kim K's are now broken.


Also a big welcome to my new followers, hope you enjoy my blog.. xx
