Cheap and Cheerful

Hey guys, so today i will be going through some dupes that I think are pretty handy and very accurate. I hope you enjoy and find this useful :)

1) Okay so we all want those Kylie Jenner lips, but not everyone will want to spend the money on MAC lipsticks to get this look. The famous 'Kylie Jenner' MAC lipstick is Velvet Teddy which costs €19.  The dupe for this lipstick is Wet n Wild Bare it all. I find this lipstick to be pretty much the same colour and are also really long wearing.    (((I will upload a comparison tomorrow when i have my make up done)))

2) Even though the Beauty Blender isn't that popular in Ireland as you cannot buy it here in shops , I think this next dupe I still really useful. The dupe for the Beauty Blender is Real Technique's miracle complexion sponge. I used to use the Real Techniques buffing brush to apply my foundation but since I have purchased the sponge I don't really like the brush that much any more. It helps give you more of a dewy finish and also helps take off excess product. The original Beauty Blender cost $20 and the Real Techniques miracle complexion sponge cost €7.99 in Boots.

3) The next dupe is for Urban Decay Naked palette. The dupe for the first palette is the W7 palette in lightly toasted. This palette is really similar and for me actually has less fall down dust. The colours are really pigmented and the palette is so inexpensive. The Naked palette costs €40 and the W7 palette costs €7.49 in Sam McCauleys.

 4)The last dupe I have is for Benefits Hoola bronzer. This is by far my favourite bronzer because of its cool tone which I find is really hard to find in a bronzer. The dupe for this in W7 Honolulu bronzer. Both bronzers have the same cool tone and sort of similar packaging. The Hoola bronzer costs €34 which is pretty pricey for a small bronzer. The Honolulu bronzer only costs around €4!

    So thats all i have for you, I hope it will be useful for you to try some of these products before deciding if you want to buy the more expensive version.
    Thank you so much for reading!

My Top 5 Make up Must Haves

   Hey everyone, today I'll be sharing with you my top 5 make up must haves. These products are all products that I own and love so I hope they might give you some ideas if you are looking for some of new make up :) I'm not an expert at this but these are products that have worked for me, so here it is...

1. Revlon Colorstay foundation is definitely my favourite foundation. I would be more likely to wear this in the winter as it is medium to heavy coverage. Mine is in the shade 150 Buff for normal to dry skin. I don't normally have dry skin but this gives it a fresh dewy look. There is shades for every skin tone so its really easy to find exactly the right colour. It costs €17.80 in Boots.


 2. Benefit Hoola Bronzer . This is one of my favourite bronzers all year round. Its really build-able so you can wear it night and day. Its also more brown based than orange based and nobody wants to look orange! It costs €34. I know its a little pricey but for me its worth the money.

3. Maybelline browdrama. This is a brow sculpting mascara. I have mine in dark blonde. When you don't have time to be filling in your brows with powder and pencils, or you're like me and end up looking like Mr. Bean when you attempt to fill them in then this will be your baby! It's so easy to apply and gives them the shape you want and a bit of a tint. It costs €7.50 in Boots, so its a bargain... and apparently its quite a close dupe for Benefits gimme brow!

4. Benefit 'They're Real!' mascara is my favourite mascara and gives me so much length and volume at the same time. I really love this mascara and its definitely worth the price. The only bad thing is that it runs out faster than others. I've bought it a couple of times and will continue to repurchase it. It costs €26.

5.  Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer. I know I've talked about how much I love this in my other review, so I won't go into too much detail. I find it's really light and gives almost an airbrush effect. It's just beautiful... that's it. If you want to know more about this product then you can check that review.! It cost €21 in Debenhams at the Urban Decay counter.

  Thank you everyone for reading!!, I know most of these products are quite pricey but I think they worth every penny. I wear them everyday and there still going strong (except for the foundation which I definitely have to buy again straight away)

    Hope this was useful!! Thank you!

Urban Decay Naked Skin Conealer

Hi everyone!
  So today I'll be reviewing Urban Decay's naked skin concealer. I bought this yesterday after watching so many youtubers rave about this product. I needed an new undereye highlight so I thought I would give it a try. You can buy it at any Urban Decay counter. I got mine in Debenhams in the city. It costs 21euros.
   I got mine in the lightest shade as i wanted to use it as a highlight (...and I'm pale) and I have to say that it is beautiful. I automatically fell in love with it as soon as i I put it on my face. I find it hard to find a concealer that I can use as a highlight because they are usually so thick (and again i am very pale) but this is so light weight that I can. When you put this under your eyes you wouldn't even notice that is there!  It feels like your own skin to touch. I can already tell it will be my go to product to cover up my dark circles over the next couple of weeks until summer:p I would definetley recommend his to anybody and it was worth the money.
  

    Not all of my reviews will be about products that I like btw. It just happened to that i love this product. I will try to do products that I regret buying aswell soon. I hope this was helpful!

Starting Off:)

hi everyone, its charlotte:)
   So I'm starting this blog just to talk about make up, beauty and maybe even lifestyle. Hopefully i can help some of you or even just to give you some ideas and give you something girly to read when you're bored.
    Recently I've been loving make up and lifestyle videos on Youtube. I get so many ideas and tip on make up, beauty and health videos.
    As I've gotten older I've grown to love make up more and more and I would really love to share that with you with some reviews, tutorials, favourites and some tips and tricks I hear about:)
     I'm really excited to start this and i hope you enjoy it! Tomorrow I'm going on a shopping spree so hopefully I'll be doing a review on a make up product in the next couple days. (I have my eye on the urban decay naked concealer;p)
      Thanks guys:)
