Maybelline/Lash Sensational Mascara

When a brand constantly launches new products it does make me question how good the previous offering must have been, but I've been proven wrong this time and I've found a mascara that's actually pretty good for a high street brand at under £10. 

Since I got this I've been using it everyday, it holds up from 6.30am until 6.45pm without flaking, smudging or budging. 

Maybelline Lash Sensational Lash Multiplying Mascara* (bit of a mouth full) is the latest addition to the mascara range by Maybelline cosmetics.

The brush is almost a good dupe of the latest release from a more luxury brand, just a bit bigger. The colour pay off is really good, a real black colour and that doesn't dull as the day goes on. 

The brush design catches every single hair with it's 10 layer bristles, and the liquid ink formula lifts, curls and coats every lash. It gives great volume without the worry of clumps. And it layers nicely too.

This is my lashes with just one coat on them....

 Removal is so easy to it just melts off with an eye make up remover, I am really impressed with this as a day to day product, give it a go if your in the market for a new mascara.

It's on sale in Boots and Superdrug nationwide and is currently on a promotional offer of just £7.99 as part of a 3 for 2 offer or buy one get one half price.

NYX/Butter Gloss

NYX is an affordable cosmetics brand that originates from across the pond in LA, we are lucky enough to be able to get our hands on their products here in the UK and bloggers & MUA's love their products. 

I've been reviewing a couple of lip products lately, the first one is the cult Butter Gloss. 

This is the Creme Brulee shade of the Butter Gloss range and I am loving it, it's very similar in texture and feel on the lips to a high end beauty gloss I've been using a lot recently, yet at a quarter of the price this could be a prefect dupe.The glosses add a hint of colour and have great pay off, the colour selection is so great I'm sure there will be one that will catch your eye.

There are 12 shades of Butter Gloss, they have a yummy sweet smell and aren't sticky at all, they glide on the lips and have a buttery texture. The staying power is around an hour at most but for a day to day gloss or to layer over your fave lippy these are perfect and so affordable at just £5 each, shop the range here: NYX Online
