New In | Lush and Real Techniques

   My brother arrived from Portsmouth yesterday and brought me these two bits. I had asked for the Real techniques Expert Face Brush (8,99£ in Superdrug) but was not expecting a Lush Bubble Bar (4,50£). I've been dying to try a brush from this line, particularly this one, so, let's see how it goes. The lush bar in Brightside was just the cherry on top of the cake.

New in | Dr.Martens Dupes

  I've been eyeing a pair of Dr. Martens shoes for as long as I can remember. Since paying 95£ was not a possibility in my list, I've been on the hunt for the perfect look-alike. I'm glad to say that the search has ended.

    While wandering around through Pull&Bear I came across these and I fell instantly in love, even more when I saw the price (30£!).
    They are comfortable, the only thing I have to point out it's that the material on the heel it's difficult to break in and can cause a bit of pain, but other than that, they're the perfect shoes!

Essence lipliner | Review

  

  Hey! Today I decided to talk to you about Essence's lipliners. A few months ago I bought the red (10 Femme Fatale) to try since it was so cheap. I must admit that my expectations were not very high for the product, since it's so low-priced (around 1,50 €).

     Once I got home and "played" a little with it, I was extremly surprised, the pigmentation is amazing. It clearly passed this test but now to what really matters. I decided to use it on the lips without putting lipstick on top, to be able to really tell if whether or not stand, and the truth is that it held up to my lips without getting smudging all over my face (that wouldn't be very attractive!).

     The finish is a bit matte, however, on my lips does not cling to cracks which you may have if my lips are drier. Normally I use without putting lipbalm before because I don't feel the need and it still works. As for durability, it lasts quite a long time intact, if you don't eat or drink, and if perchance you do, it fades a bit but nothing extraordinary and easily solved with a touch-up. As for girls who love to give kisses, perhaps this is not the most appropriate product, because it easily transfers to the skin, which will require more frequent touch-ups.

     Overall it is a very good product at a very affordable price, I also believe that there are about 6 colors, which means that regardless of your skin tone, you'll find a colour that suits you.  

   Here's the swatches:
