Beauty Product Reviews
For the price - fantastic!
Not as cheap as the MUA lipsticks, but definatley more moisturising. Great colour pay off, and easy to mix with lipgloss to create a clearer colour. I have Bubblegum (#6) and Passionfruit (#5) and they're both almost finished. As for "Transfer & kiss proof" - not so much, but I'd be sincerley shocked if that was the case considering the price and creamy consistency. Loses a star and a half for the claim, and for the fact they don't last as long as I would hope for them too considering the colours are so pretty
FANTASTIC!!!
NOTE: In the UK this is not a retractable eye-liner, it's a pencil that can be sharpened.
Applied correctly, this is an ultra creamy, long lasting pencil. I was amazed at its staying power on the waterline.. better than any other brand I've tried. Heard it compared to the Stila Smudgestick but considering the price difference, this is great for money. Can go out clubbing and will still stay in place. You don't have to press hard at all to get a good coour pay off, its a true black with the lightest hand which I love especially since pulling your eyes can be bad for it. If worn overnight, gives a "bedroom eye" that can be smudged out & cleaned up the next day.. simply sweep a mascara and your good to go. Also, not difficult to remove, granted you use eye make up remover, and doesn't stain.
Exceeds Expectations
For £1, I was skeptical but these colours are fantastic. Over a primer, they last all day, look great, especially for a day to day quick sweep of colour. They're not chalky or too powdery and the colour pay off is great. Don't leave a stain. For £1, this is a steal. I have almost all the colours, and they're great. Easy to fit into a make up bag for travel too, and the lids are sturdy enough so even if they break due to handling (I travel a lot) it won't leave the inside of your make up bag looking like a chalk party. love Love LOVE!!
My "Wake Me Up" Secret
Use this over my everyday BB cream, sweep it along my cheeks, hairline, use it in the crease of my eye and to contour under my lip and between my cleavage to cheat if I've got a low cut top on. Brightens my look, especially if I don't have time to fake tan, makes me look that bit healthier. Multi purpose, not too shimmery, price is good and smells amazing :) Favourite bronzer
Brilliant!
Bought the Magenta, Red and Teal and I love love love them all! They're not gappy, 'few-and-far-between" glitter polishes.. Apply over a similar or contrasting colour, over a black tip for a glitter french.. they're great!! Last longer than the originals.. great for nights out. As with all glitters, hard to get off, but if like me, you like peeling your nail varnish (despite what it does to your poor nails).. this wont bother you. Soaking them between acetone cotton pads for about 30 seconds seems to pull the majority off. As far as glitters go though, fantastic products,.
For a drugstore brand, and at a cheap price for 12 shadows, its not too shabby. The neons are chalky however, and since that was the attraction behind buying it, its slightly disappointing. Used over NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk, the colours last. You have to really pack the colour on, but as far as bright colours go, the colour pay off isnt too bad. They're easy to blend, but with the shimmery colours I had a ton of problem with fallout. For the price, its great, for the actual product, its pretty good but seeing as it isn't sold in the US, with a shipping price combined, it wouldn't be worth the money. For those in the UK who love bright looks - definitely recommend
Bought after falling in love with the foundation, now use on its own over BB Cream to brighten my skin and cover imperfections. Smells amazing, lasts almost all day if set with a powder (I use the Lily Lolo Translucent Matte) and best of all, doesn't feel dry or crease throughout the day. Only downside is the packaging.. easy to squeeze too much out in a rush and it is not as hydrating as the foundation. Bourjois is generally more pricey out of the drugstore brands, so price is okay in relation to the other products within in the brand
