So I Made a YouTube Channel!

So this is something i have been wanting to do for a while and yesterday i finally bit the bullet and decided to film and upload my first YouTube video.

I was a little unsure as to whether or not to share my video on a blog, as i was sure how it would be taken - if that makes any sense! 

Please let me know what you think of my first video and if your on YouTube i would love it if you could subscribe to my channel.

Hope your all having a fab June so far!

Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet vs Aqua ♡


Hi everyone! Sorry i've been gone for a little while - things have been a little in the air with me recently but im back now and i am so excited to be blogging again :)

So its no secret that the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvets fast became a cult drug store favourite - the formula is super smooth and applies effortlessly and not to mention the staying power of these beauties is amazing! You can read a review i did here

The Aqua Laque didn't seem to have the same buzz about them - i dont know if thats just me but i rarely hear people raving about these or see them in peoples favourites. However if your not a big fan of matte lips and prefer something super glossy then this would be right up your street. 
I must admit it does feel a little strange when first applying because if feels really wet and a little cold. The colour range that is available in this formula isn't as vast as the Velvet editions but they have 8 shades ranging from nudes to pink to reds so there should be something for everyone. 

Personally i much prefer the Velvet editions but i do love a matte lip and for me with a lipstick staying power is a must - aint no body got time to top up their lipstick ever hour or so! 

Which one is your favourite?

Max Factor Creme Puff Blush - Lovely Pink ♡


There has been a lot of hype around these Max Factor Creme Puff Blushes because they are such a great dupe for the Hour Glass Ambient Blushes - now i have never tried the Hour Glass Version so i can't really put my two pence in about that but the Max Factor Creme Puff Blush are truly stunning! 

I have this in Lovely Pink which is a beautiful pale pink, with a golden shimmer, which makes it perfect for a blush highlight. Max Factor designed these blushes making a perfect shade for each skin tone, Lovely pink is designed for paler skin but honestly i think all the blushes will look lovely every skin tone, I really want to try Gorgeous Berries, which is a beautiful plumy shade. 

The Creme Puff Blushes are baked which gives them phenomenal staying power and man are they pigmented! 

Like i said i haven't tried the Hour Glass comparison and as much as i want to these Max Factor ones are only £8.99 and one of the best high street blushes i have every tried! So for now these will do me perfectly! 

Have you tried the Max Factor Creme Puff Blushes yet?
