Mini Haul - Superdrug

Hey Guys!
I posted a picture on my instagram (@lasheslinerlove) on Monday of a little super drug haul! I wasn't even planning on going but ran in when it was 5 minutes from closing which probably stopped me from buying more! The majority of the products are lip products, all but one! So here's what I got....

Max Factor Colour Elixir Lipstick - Firefly 755

This was a random purchase for me as I honestly don't think I've ever purchased from Max Factor before. I was looking for the perfect lipstick to pair with my MAC Whirl Lipliner to get that desired Kylie Jenner lip colour and this took my eye. It's a mauve shade with a satin texture and when I tried it at home it does work perfectly with Whirl! I also love the gold packaging as I have it displayed in a lipstick stand so it looks very pretty!

MUA Matte Lipstick - Pouty Pink

Matte lipsticks are my favourite formula for lipsticks so when I saw these were only £1 I had to grab one and this shade was the only one left in my store. The colour swatches a lot brighter than the pink on the packaging but it does seem like great quality for the price! This will be perfect for the transition in to spring!

MUA Blusher - Cupcake

Another MUA product that I picked up for £1! I really want to try experimenting with different blushes as I always stick to the same ones so I only own a few. I'm yet to try this but the colour looks very natural and how wrong can you go when a products only £1? 

MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquer - Serene 

Can you tell I was on a bit of an MUA hype? I'm loving the liquid lipstick trend at the moment and this looked promising. Again I'm yet to try this but the packaging is so cute with a frosted finish around the tube and the actual product itself is a pretty baby pink shade. This was only £3 which again is a great price for the product, especially if you're on a budget so I'm excited to try this!

L'oreal Color Riche Lipstick Intense Blondes - Cassis Passion 376

L'oreal for me has always been a strong drugstore brand however I used their face products and have never tried a lipstick from them. This colour stood out as it's a warm deep red, almost a berry red and swatches SO creamy. I love the gold L'oreal packaging and after this purchase will definitely be picking up some more in this range. 

Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm - Elusive 205

I picked this up as I knew I already loved this line as I have another shade from it. For a matte lip product its very moisturising; which is where the balm comes into action so it feels more velvety yet looks matte. The shade is a baby pink and the product itself is very thick and opaque. I find that these matte balms tend to stay on for a good few hours which is great for a drugstore product.

So that's all I picked up! What are you currently loving from the drugstore? Clearly i'm loving pinks! Let me know if there's anything you think I should checkout.

Makeup of the day: Night Out

Hey Guys!

On Monday night I went to a club in Bournemouth where Callum Best was hosting his Birthday party. I ended up not even meeting him but took pictures of my makeup when I was getting ready! I've been trying to use things in my collection that I never reach for so here's what I used....

For a primer I used my travel sized MAC Strobe Cream which gives an amazing dewy glow to the skin through your foundation. I also used some Maybelline Baby Lips to moisturise my lips while I do the rest of my makeup. I've been loving L'oreal True Match at the moment so used this for my foundation. I then primed my eyes with MAC Paint pot in Soft Ochre. This is where I wanted to use some products that I hardly ever use... I put down my MAC Palette and picked up my MUA Undress Me Too Palette. I used the shade Lavish (5th from the left on the top row) mixed with Benefit Hoola in my crease for more definition. I then darkened up the outer v with Obsessed (5th from the left on the bottom row). For the lid I used MAC Lily-White Pigment from their A Fantasy of Flowers collection. I love the colour of this but for some reason have hardly ever used it before! 

For eyeliner, I used my ever trusty L'oreal Super Liner Perfect Slim - Intense Black on the top as it's so easy to draw on your liner as close to your lash line as possible. For my lower water line I used MAC Powerpoint Eye Pencil - Engraved and it stayed on all night! Moving back onto my face, for concealer I used my Maybelline Instant Anti-Age The Eraser Eye - Light and then to bronze, used Benefit Hoola again! I used my MAC Powder Blush in Desert Rose and then blended it in along with my bronzer. For eyebrows, I used my Sleek MakeUp Brow Kit - Dark and just used the powder. To finish off my face I used MAC Studio Careblend Pressed Powder - Medium and then used MAC Fix+ all over the face to add to the dewy finish. 

For lashes I used Benefit They're Real on top and then Maybelline Great Lash Mascara on my bottom lashes. I then lined my lips with MAC Whirl Lipliner and then filled in my lips with Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm - Elusive which I had just bought that day and really loved. And that completes the look! I know it wasn't very intense reviews on everything but was more for the products!

What's your go-to look for a night out? Or do you normally experiment with new things?
