Making it a better place for everyone. Such an inspiring company.

Love is putting the happiness of others before your own, and they strive to put the happiness of there customers and the under privileged and environment above anything. 


I chose to review there beautiful blusher brush, and felt so privileged to be able to do so, reading through there website opens your eyes to everyday sadness, and being able to put something back in to the environment is a honor for anybody. If you have the time to take a read please do http://www.cariboucosmetics.co.uk/  it will open your eyes into things not not everyone thinks about when buying cosmetics.Selling a wide range of brushes and set's which include 12 beautifully made brushes, costing £59.00 rrp £229.00 you get 3 years guarantee, free worldwide delivery and the longest lasting makeup brushes! Ok so i know some of you will be thinking i would not pay that, but i have done a bit of research and some other big brand brushes cost £50.00+ so really while this offer is on its worth taking a look at!  Lets take a look at the brush:
I love the look of this black with white writing and white/black brissels really sets this off as a elegant product. It hold's just the right amount of product while being easy and kind on the skin, it is so soft unlike some brushes i have used before. I like the small brush because i'm not overwhelmed by product, and don't get stupid amounts applied to my cheek,  If i could afford the complete set i would buy it  because i would love to see how the other brushes are and if they are a good and easy to use as this one, but with my three children other needs must at this time but its something i will be looking in to. I have a large collection of cosmetic brushes but i love to compare different brands. I found Caribou on twitter so why not go check them out there as well? but overall this has been lovely to test and it does feel a lot nicer then the blusher brushes i have been using, so i know use this one on a daily basics. I've not had it long so i will in a few months do you guys an update to see if its still in good condition. Of course being cleaned and looked after plays a part. This single brush is £16.00 down from £29.00, I feel like i'm blabbing but i really do like this blusher brush and it does have such a different soft easy feel to it.



Thank you for reading, i hope you have enjoyed, and do go check out

Three Beautiful Makeup Revolution eye shadows

Hey Guy's



Before rejoining Twitter i admit i had never heard of makeup_Rev  ( Holds head in shame ) but being on there and following so real makeup enthusiasts i found out about them. The great quality the amazing prices and even better they we're sold in superdrugs! So off i popped to my local store and as i stood at the Makeup_Rev with my purse at the ready, i could not believe how many beautiful and cheap products they made. I was a kid in a candy shop and ever since i have always brought at  a few items at a time when near my local superdrug, so i have a beautiful little collection coming along, anyway enough of that this post is on my most resent purchase from Makeup_Rev online three most stunning eye shadows that i could not resist in buying  and i just wanted to share them with you so lets get started!!!


 So here we have ( top to Bottom ) Base!, Frozen and Heavenly, i was just drawn to these not just because how stunning there where but there names, Frozen really pulled me in i'm not sure if because of the film but i needed to try this, Heavenly well look at it, it is like something from heaven two beautiful colours merged together to create an array of beauty on your eye lid. Then base because you can never have to many base eye shadows i always run out and this is a creamy colour with a little sparkle, so there are my choices all so luscious in there own way  very well made but i expect nothing else from makeup_rev very highly pigmented, and i love the little individual cases they come in with a flip up lid simple but elegant and of course any makeup_rev fan will know these only cost £1.00 i could spend so much money of makeup. So i hope you have enjoyed my little post on my new  makeup_rev eye shadows. Have you tried these colours or do you own them? What are your thought?










Thank you for reading!

Technic Face Essentials

Hiya Guy's


So this is sadly my last post on the beautiful products from Technic, but i am so happy to have been able to share them with you and i hope you have all enjoyed reading my thoughts on these lovely products so lets no waste any more time and get to it shall we?! 

Primer:

A beautiful glass pot with a candy floss pink contents one of the most sweetest looking primers i have seen. When applying its soft and gives your skin a silk like finish which is just delightful there's nothing worse then a gritty feeling to your skin. Once applied you would not know that its pink to start with as it leaves no trace on your skin. This only cost £3.99 which is a great price for a primer i have seen some that start at £12.00 i would be lost with out primer and this is as good as my other.


Concealer:

Sadly this did not match up to my natural skin tone but i did try it out to see what the coverage was like and i was impressed, giving full cover to the area and not leaving a greasy after feel i would be happy to purchase this in the correct colour and would enjoy using it! Its light weigh and does not make you feel as though you have smeared something untoward all over your face which is not the best feeling when trying out new products. A very handy and easy to use applicator much resembling a lip gloss stick giving you the perfect amount at one time.


BB Cream:
Again i could not use this product to its full potential only because i have fair skin and this was in the shade biscuit so was pretty dark for my skin tone, but again i did give it a go to see how the finished look was, and i was yet again happy with this bb cream its not heavy feeling its soft and comfortable to wear, it gives you the feel of a good covering product without feeling bear. I love the packaging of this foundation its simple but elegant all rolled in to one.


Mascara:

  I love this mascara, and i really love the applicator brush nice spread out long bristles giving your lashes full cover with out being stuck together and you end up looking like spider eyes. This is a black mascara which is good for me as i only tend to wear black, i like mascaras that make my eyes look big and open which this does perfectly! For me my biggest feature is my eyes so i love it when a product gives me the full potential.This really is a beautiful product, i have been using benefit roller lash mascara but i really have fallen for this one which really to me say's it has high quality results.£3.99 is such a great price for this mascara and i will be 100% getting some more once this one is empty! 


So my lovelies sadly that is the end of my Technic products, i really hope you have enjoyed them as much as i have. I would love to know if you have brought yourself some since reading my post's. 


Thank you for reading

Eye shadow palettes by Technic = Beautiful

Hiya Beauties,




So here is my post on the Technic eye shadow palettes, i was sent two but i have included my own Brights palette as well so you can see the different variety's of colour they produce. Here we have the smokey eyes palette, a beautiful compact case including some stunning colours. Unfortunately i can not give you the exact shades included as they are not put on the packaging but we have ( White, Silver, Deeper Silver, a Bronzed Silver, a Metal shade Silver and Black ) i'm sorry for the vague try at describing these shades to you. Very well pigmented included is a applicator i very rarely use the ones included as i prefer my own brushes, available from LoveThyMakeup for £1.49 this is a great value eye palette! Being able to create some beautiful looks with it.



Another gorgeous palette is the MegaNudes which included's 12 matt/shimmer colours from light to dark ( base coat, beige, golden beige, white, gold, brown, bronzed brown, shimmer brown, dark brown, black, and shimmer black ) again i'm sorry for not being able to share the correct names to these shades. Easy to apply and stunning, very highly pigmented and not needing to use a lot of product. Included again is an applicator double ended, these palettes are wonderful for achieving an array of different looks from simple to elegant and for £1.49 its a steal!






And finally the Brights palette which i brought myself last year, i was looking for bright colour but in a palette not individual so for me this was perfect and it only cost £1.49 as if you didn't guess! and for the palette the same applies as it does to the others included is a double ended applicator, high pigmented six shades, ( Purple, Pink, Yellow, Orange, Green and Blue ) all beautiful and bright i have worn these colours a few times and have achieved some real different and outstanding looks, maybe not colours you would wear everyday but you could include them in to most looks.


 



I Hope you have enjoyed my post on Technic eye shadow palettes, if you have not tried them would you? Such a good value product which i love using. 

Thank you,

Emma xx

Technic for those Lush Lip's.

Hiya Guys, 

The first product i ever brought from Technic was a bright eye's eye shadow palette and i was so happy with my purchased they palette was so pigmented and the colours where bright and stood out beautifully once on the eye. So i was so happy to receive some more products from Technic a beautiful selection ranging from lips, eyes, to skin, this post will be the lip selection that was included. 



The Juicy Stick







Similur to a crayon?! ok a strange thing to say about a beauty product, but these juicy sticks do remind me of crayons. They are so easy to wear, smooth and moist giving the lips a beautiful soft feeling. Also featuring a twist up bottom i love the look of the juicy stick as well. This only cost's £1.49!!! such a cheap product, but not cheap it quality not one bit, i do have to say excuse the pictures of my lips i'm not well at the moment so my pictures do not do these products justice!  All Technic products are available from LoveThyMakeup which stock all 7 different colours! This is a bright red i'm not a fan of red really so i have passed this on to a friend, but i have out an order in for a pink! 



Colour Max Raspberry LipGloss


 This is a gorgeous lip gloss giving a high shine finish and it has such a lushios raspberry scent as well which gives it that added pleasure!  Easy glid brush that comes along with this product it really is lovely it feels so nice once applied to your lips. Costing only £3.00, another thumbs up from me this is a darker red kind of a plum. Its not got that annoying horrible sticky feeling to it either just a really moist feeling. 



 ColourMax Lipstick  

So the last lip product is this lovely light pink lipstick with an angled edge for easy application. A soft and light lip stick this is personally more my sort of colour so i have loved wearing this. A lovely matt black case really does set this pink off, i love the angled edge as well, it makes it so easy to get the perfect look. Costing £2.50 i think these are worth a try for any make up lover. 

 So that is the end of my Technic lip post, i hope you have enjoyed! Have any of you tried Technic before? what did you think? I will be posting the eye shadow palettes up this week as well. So makeup does not have to cost the earth because there really are some cheap treasures out there, its just a matter of finding them! and i glad to have found these ones.

Thank you for reading!

StarGazer Cosmetics!

Evening Guys,

StarGazer was established in 1978 with the opening of a stall in the great gear market on the kings road London, with Kings road being the center of punk fashion at this time. With this colour and outrage molded many company's ideas, they are still based in the u.k in Croydon on the outskirts of London. In 1980's Stargazer expanded into department stores bringing the colours produced to a wider audience. They now produce the majority of products in-house. Since Stargazer first launched they have expanded considerably, in an effort to offer customers a wide range of cosmetics including hair colouring products with WILD, COLOUFUL & IN YOUR FACE feel to them.


Exotic Nail Polish:

Two beautiful colours 255 EXOTIC & 254 EXOTIC, a luscious deep purple and eye popping pink easy to apply and 255 giving you a  lovely matt finish while 254 gives you that shine. I have really got back into making my nails look pretty and elegant so i love buying nail varnish a i have shoe box full and have just ordered some more ( opps ) so i was so happy to try these Stargazer nail polishes out! A very good well sized nail brush included these polishes give you an all over cover in one go and only needing two full coats for full colour is good as i hate having to spend hours on one nail because the nail varnish is so thin and watery! I also love the round bottle and simple Stargazer around, Retailing at £3.50 each i think this is a great price as its up there with the other brand prices.













Semi Permanent lip stain pen:

I love lip stain pens i have some from MUA i think i even love them more then lipstick! this beautiful lip stain is 01 a pinkish purple. With a cut edge this is perfect for gliding smoothly over the lips and does so just perfectly! Lasting all day i highly recommend this product to anyone who does not always find time to keep re-applying makeup. This is perfect for my busy life style as i don't always have time to re-apply makeup. Giving a full on beautiful look this product is such a steal at £4.00 i would have no problem buying these!








Glitter Eye Liner:
 I'm not a big user of eye liner, i tend to wear it on a going out occasion not just everyday. This is a beautiful eye liner filled with little bits of sparkly glitter giving you that extra gorgeous look. I have used this eye liner a few times and i do apologise for the lack of pictures with me wearing this product. Such a easy eye liner to wear and not affecting the eyes or making them sore at all personally i would not put this as an everyday wearing product but each to there own! Retailing  at £3.00 another good priced product!




I have loved every moment of these beautiful products! they are so elegant and easy to use and achive gorgeous looks with, there are so many other amazing products on the stargazer web site. https://www.stargazer-products.com/ . I hope you enjoy and Thank you for reading!
