My Review Of: L'Oreal Rouge Caresse Lipstick


I picked up this Lipstick last week during a trip to Superdrug, taking advantage on the 3 for 2 offer across all cosmetics.

I picked up colour 301 Dating Coral. It is a Coral colour, with peachy pink tones. It is gorgeous on the lips. Feels silky smooth and lightweight on the lips. It does not dry the lips out, and in fact it almost feels hydrating.

This lipstick is available in 13 different shades and retails at around £7.99. It is perfect for the summer, and the colour is on trend. Although as previously mentioned, this is available in plenty of shades if this is not to your tastes.

I have been using this product almost everyday since I purchased it, and I highly recommend.

This is available at all the usual places, check out the website for stockists.

If you are looking for a good quality lipstick that's not going to feel horrible on your lips throughout the warmer (I won't say hotter) months, then this is for you.

My Review Of: Rimmel ScandelEyes Mascara

So like I said in my last review, I am not much of a Rimmel girl. But when I did the Tesco 3 for 2 Spree I picked up a couple of products, this mascara being one of them. Once again I have been presently surprised. Rimmel says that this mascara is the largest wands from there range yet. Containing collagen and keratin, this mascara claims to boost volume, and look after your lashes at the same time. I love it.

The volume it gives my lashes is great, and I have worn it everyday since I got it! This is going to end up being another of the products that I regularly buy. I used to be a really big fan of false lashes, but when I am wearing this, I don't feel the need. I will make sure to post some pictures of me wearing this soon. The other thing I love about it is that it isn't a complete mission to remove it. It comes off quite easily with my make-up remover, yet it doesn't run or smudge whilest wearing it.

This is only a short write up as there really isn't much for me to say other than, go get it. This product is available in all the usual places, and normally retails around £6.99.



I hope this is useful if you are looking for a voluminous mascara.

My Review of: Rimmel 'Wake Me Up' Foundation


Its quite unusual for me to try out a Rimmel foundation, as being honest, I have never got on with them and gave up trying. But when I saw that the foundation YouTuber Zoella is in fact Rimmel's 'Wake Me Up' Foundation I wanted to give it ago as her skin always looks great.

I picked mine up at Tesco during my little 3 for 2 Clubcard Spree. It is usually around £8.99.

As you know I pride myself on being completely honest when I do my reviews, and I was presently surprised when I tried this out. It has a lovely refreshing smell to it and glides on to the skin beautifully. I have applied this with a brush and with my fingers, and both times it was flawless.

It really does make my skin look radiant, which is good as the bottle claims, "Anti-Fatigue Effect and Radiant Glow". It is also SPF 15 which is pretty standard in foundations these days, but all the same a good feature.

The foundation is only available is six shades, which compared to over leading brands, is a pretty limited selection. I am lucky enough to get on well with Shade 103 True Ivory. It has a pump action dispenser, (hurrah no un-washable brushes here!) which doesn't dispense to much at one time. 

I have to say, this is more than likely going to become one of my regular buys, and may well take the place of my L'Oreal True Match Foundation. It is no where near as cakey or thick. So I have been won over again by Rimmel, who for a long time I have avoided. as you know, my most loved foundation is Elizabeth Ardens Flawless Finish, but this is a great alternative, if you don't really fancy the £25 price tag of that one.

You can find this product in all good drugstores, and Rimmel stockists.
I hope you enjoyed the review :)
