I picked up the new Collection Lasting Perfection Weightless Foundation on a whim last time I visited Superdrug. I’ve nearly come to the end of my Wet ‘n’ Wild Photo Finish Foundation and was looking for something around the same price to replace it. My collection of high-end foundations do have a…
Makeup brushes don’t come any more magical than this. Unicorn Cosmetics is an indie beauty brand who live in a world full of flowers, sprinkles and rainbows. Every product seems to be inspired by over-the-top girliness, lollypops and Trixie Mattel – and I love it! The beauty industry has a real tendency to…
I received my first ever official Beauty Blender as a gift for subscribing to Birchbox over three years ago. I hate to seem dramatic but it literally changed the way I apply my makeup. Up until this point I either used my fingers or a brush, I never even considered using…
Wet n Wild is finally available in the UK. Beauty Bay currently stocks 57 of their cruelty-free products including makeup brushes, a wide selection of mascaras, eyeshadow palettes and their bestselling Photo Focus foundation, powder and concealer with prices starting from only £2. Unfortunately, there’s no sign of their limited edition…
As soon as it was revealed that ColourPop were releasing their first ever foundation retailing for just $12, I wanted it. Formulated with soft blurring pigments, the No Filter Foundation claims to give long-wearing, buildable coverage with a natural-looking matte finish available in 42 shades. Introducing the New No Filter Complexion…
I used to be all about the cake. Give me a full coverage foundation any day. My current favourites are the Huda Beauty #FauxFilter, Yves Saint Laurent All Hours and L.A. Girl PRO. Matte HD Long Wear Matte Foundation. Their formulas cover EVERYTHING and, when a layer of my trusty Dermablend…
I stumbled across a CYO (C.Y.O?) Cosmetics display at my local Boots a few weeks ago and picked up a few products in a 3 for 2 offer. I don’t know a lot about CYO but I’m pretty sure I’d seen a few US influencers use their products over the years and…
When the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation popped up on NikkieTutorials ‘Hit and Oh God No’s’ back in January 2017 I was so excited for it’s UK launch. I waited and waited and waited. I was a fan of the original Infallible foundation, even though I felt it’s shade range could be…
I purchased the Huda Beauty #FauxFilter Foundation (£32 | 35ml) from Cult Beauty as a pre-Christmas treat a few weeks ago. This product definitely falls into the ‘YouTube Made Me Buy It’ category. Basically, if it has ever been on NikkieTutorials face and it’s available in the UK, I will buy it. This is…
A few months ago I was very kindly sent two products from Vichy, the Dermablend 16H Fluid Corrective Foundation and a top-up of my all-time favourite setting powder. I don’t why it took me so long to try Vichy, it might be because of the lack of advertising or the…
When Gemma from Gemma Etc posted on Facebook about the new Fresh & Fit Awake Primer from Essence being a Charlotte Tilbury dupe, I knew I had to buy it. Considering Essence and Charlotte Tilbury are two of my favourite makeup brands, how could I resist? I also picked up the Fresh &…
So recently there have been three beauty launches that I’ve been so excited to try and couldn’t wait to have in my life. First up, the YSL All Hours Liquid Foundation (£33.50). To be honest, what beauty blogger wouldn’t get giddy over a new YSL release? It’s been over a…
When I saw that Yves Saint Laurent had brought out a new matte foundation which was available in the UK and also Tati approved, it was in my online basket within seconds. I bought the YSL All Hours foundation a few weeks ago via the official YSL Beauty website in the…
As much as I love a full coverage foundation, I do like to have a lighter base on hand for days where I’m going for a more fuss-free natural look. I also love time-saving multipurpose products such as my Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse, Mama Mio Superstar in a Jar and Dr Paw…
Oh dear, I used the ‘D’ word that seems to be getting everyone’s back up. I love a good dupe, every girl who has a budget to stay to does, but I can see why brands and influencers are becoming increasingly concerned. Personally, I believe that there is a big…
