NARS Lipgloss in Sweet Revenge

Apologies for the bleh photo quality, these were taken with my phone! 


I've lusted after NARS for a long time now but this is my first ever product from them. Recently I've been loving lipgloss for some reason so I thought I would treat myself to one from NARS. This shade is sheer but slightly nude on the lips. It really doesn't match the colour on the website (something that annoys me insanely!), however I'm still really pleased with it.
The lipgloss is not sticky but viscous enough to stay put on the lips. I actually had a nap with it on and when I woke up it was still there, I was very impressed!
One negative about this gloss is the scent/taste. It's a weird plasticy/factory smell that isn't very pleasant but you can't smell it when it's on your lips. Another thing is the price, £17.50, is a bit steep but the staying power of this gloss makes it worth it. 
I will definitely purchase another NARS gloss, however I'll get a more colourful pigmented one.

Haul: Boots, Bodycare and MAC!

Hi lovelies! So I headed in to town to pick up some nail polish remover and somehow came home with slightly more than that ... oops! Therefore here is a little haul for you.

Revlon Colorburst in Bordeaux - £7.99 Boots
First is this Revlon ColorBurst Lip gloss in Bordeaux. I'm not really a lipgloss person but these Colorburst ones are so, so nice! 



Revlon Lip Butter in Peach Parfait - £7.99 Boots
This is my second Revlon Lip Butter, my first is in Pink Truffle. 

MAC Lipstick in See Sheer and Creme In Your Coffee - £13.50 each.
I'm adoring MAC lipsticks right now! Not decided which one of these is my favorite yet!



Revlon Nail Polish in Stunning - £6.49 Boots
I've never seen this in the Revlon stand before - it's gorgeous! There is a 3 for 2 offer on right now so I actually got this for free...woooop!


Barry M Nail Paint in Strawberry Ice Cream - £2.99 Boots
So my Barry M collection is officially ridiculous! I'm such a sucker for Nail Paints. I was looking for 'Yellow' but they were very low on Nail Paint in Boots and when I saw this I thought what the heck!

Cutex Nail Polish Remover - £1.49 Bodycare
The original reason I went shopping! I've wanted to try this one for quite a while and at £1.49 I'm not complaining if it isn't amazing.


Katy Perry by Eylure in Oh, Honey - £3.99 Bodycare
Technic Natural Lashes - £1.49 Bodycare
I love my Katy Perry eyelashes in Oh, Honey so much and when I spotted them for only £3.99 in Bodycare I snapped up a second pair as my first is a little tatty! Technic false lashes are another favorite of mine however I haven't tried this particular style. The only odd thing about Technic lashes are the fact all the ones called 'Natural' are very dramatic and all the ones called 'Fancy' tend to be quite natural, not an issue in the slightest though obviously!

MUA Lip Gloss Tubes Review.

Hi Hunnies!

I am a MASSIVE MUA fan, there is no denying it! They're £1 range out does the majority of it's high street/drug store counterparts in my opinion and this gloss is definitely one of those amazing out doers!


Firstly, I've gotta mention the price and quality. £1! For one pound I would expect the gloss to be plastic tasting, incredibly sticky and just crap to be honest. However these glosses are none of the above. They have a really pleasant scent and don't really have a taste and aren't sticky. I genuinely feel these lip glosses are just as good (if not better) than the other lip glosses of their kind that you'll find, for more money, in the high street isles! Long lasting wise I'd say they are average. The only lip glosses I've ever really deemed 'long lasting' are Stila's Lip Glazes but these stay on just the same as Revlon etc.



Secondly it the shades and shimmer/glitter. There is around 5 shades - not the greatest selection but these glosses are more about the shimmer/glitter. The two I have, shades 4 and 5, are both absolutely beautiful! Shade 4 has a lot of gold shimmer going through, perfect for a bronzed look and shade 5 has amazing large chunks of glitter in a pinky gloss.
