Fun With Face Charts: cshock

Have been very very bored since uni stoppped and have been wearing the same looks for conviniences sake, so last night I decided to make use of the face charts I have printed off in recent days to see how it would go. I decided to try the cshock face chart but since I didn't have any of the products from that collection I improvised and used the Ben Nye Grand Lumiere pallet.Since it was like 11pm the lighting was pretty poor but since it is a very bright look it doesnt matter so much and for some reason I kept missing half of my eye with the camera.

Products used:

MAC s/s- Beige-ing

Ben Nye e/s- Ice, Sun Yellow, Azalea,Tangerine, Cosmic Blue, Amethyst and Jade.
MAC Penultimate Liner

GOSH Velvet touch e/l- Girl Power

Benefit Bad Gal Mascara- Black

FOTD: Turkish Delight

Yet another FOTD,this one is inspired by the colours of the sky at sunset in Turkey (it's getting into the summer holiday season and I want to go back). The liner on the upper lashes could do with being a little thicker and the liner on the waterline is just not bold enough. Thought I'd roadtest the lip products I got this morning (absolutely love recieving that little black box). The lighting is not very good unfortunately.

Face as with the last look minus the prep and prime and using Maybelline pure mineral foundation in Ivory Rose (I think it is called that, the number was '02') instead of MAC.

Review: Beautyuk Eyeshadow pallet

Beautyuk eyeshadow pallet (£2.93)

Bought this product today out of curiosity. Attracted to the bright colours I had expected that the product at only £2.93 would be of poor quality in that the colour payoff would be poor and the product would feel horrible and unpleasant and would not last very long. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the colours were as bright on skin as they were in the pallet and that they lasted atleast a couple of hours until I purposely removed them. The texture wasn't unpleasant and it even has a mirror in the pallet and its size means that this is a convinient product to transport on a night out etc. The look of the eyeshadows themselves reminded me of the photos of the Coastal Scents 88 pallet but unfortunately I cannot compare the 2 as I don't have the Coastal Scents pallet. Since it is quite small you don't seem to get alot of eyeshadow but since it is highly pigmented and costs less than a mocha, I'd say its a bargain. Overall I think this is a good product and would totally recommend it. 5/5
