Its Been Awhile

hey guy!! So it has been way to long since my last blog post :( But I was really busy with school and now that the term is over I have been catching up on my beauty sleep lol.
Just thought I would share a few new products I got with you guys!!!

So first up is TOPSHOP Cosmetics. I know what you guys are thinking, its never good when a clothing store tries to do makeup, but I am here to tell you the they actually are pretty good products. I have tried all the ones I am about to show you, So here it goes......

This first product is a highlighter called Sunburst. it is a cream to powder finish and actually has a silverish gold finish on the skin. I like to use it on my T-Zone and above the apples on my cheeks for a nice highlight.
The next product is a blusher called flush. It is also a cream to powder finish and actually goes on like a true blush color, more pink then coral. To apply this blusher I dot it on to the apples of my cheeks and blend out.

As I am obsessed with mascara I wanted to try topshops and see how it compares to the others ones I have tried before. This one is in Raven. I really like this mascara. The brush is a tight bristle brush and nicely separates the lashes. I think this comes to a close second to the Dior blackout mascara. It reall lengthens and volumizes. I think I will definitely repurchase this item.

I also was drawn to these product because of the packaging. It is consistent all the way through with the hand drawing on the paper and hard cover packaging. Its very cute and playful, which is definitely appealing to the youthful topshop consumer.

The next products I bought were from Superdrug and they are the Sleek Eyeshadow palettes.
This first one is there recent limited edition color palette named i-Divine in Paraguaya. and is picture of their website does not do it justice. The colors are a nice mixture of shimmer and matte neutral corals. They are very pigmented and an affordable price. I got this palette for only 6.49 and you are really getting your moneys worth. If you are into eye shadows I suggest you check out their website in the link above. 
Then the last thing I got was another i-Divine palette in Storm. This is a nice neutral palette that you can do smokey eyes with or a natural daytime look. 

Hope everyone is having a nice spring break!!  I will do a video on all these products soon so you can see the swatches and how they look on the skin
