Review!! Maybelline Colossal Volume Express


Hey there.. so I am still awaiting my origins goodies but thought I would do a quick review of this brilliant mascara. I purchased this from my local chemist it was £6.99 (about 10 US dollars I think) and got the shade Glam Black. This was, believe it or not the first maybelline mascara I have tried, although I am a mascara addict! It was recommended by a friend so thought I would give it a bash. This mascara is really really good. The brush is quite chunky (see pic) and I am a big fan of these kinds of wands I don't like the new trend of the thin ones :-S. The packaging is really thick and bright as well really stands out in the make up bag! This mascara goes on really well and I had no clumps, I usually curl my lashes then apply first coat, let it dry then apply a second. However, on the pack it says only one needed and I really felt that I only really needed one with this! The colour is a beautiful black shade and this mascara really made my eyes pop so I would recommend it.


My review for this mascara is 5 out of 5 top marks!

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Range

I love make up. I like high end brands (although mostly can't afford them) but I also like high street and low end brands. I've never tried collection 2000 foundation as I usually like Bourjois and Maybelline but thought I would try it out. I firstly bought the Lasting Perfection Concealer (review to come!) my shade is light and it is AMAZING! After purchasing that I was looking for a long lasting good coverage foundation that wasn't too expensive as I am a bridesmaid in a few weeks. So I decided to try the foundation as the concealer really impressed me my shade is Vanilla. This picture is me wearing the foundation and concealer, with eye make up on but no lip colour or blush/highlight. The consistency of this is quite light and a smooth and it feels amazing on your skin, I feel its as smooth as say Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse. The coverage I felt was really good and it lasted me all night. I must also add that I used Gosh Primer underneath but having used the foundati

Review Gosh Foundation Primer

Image
This is my first primer I have to admit. I had read really good things about this and as I'm a bridesmaid in a few days time, and have decided to do my own make up!, I really wanted something that would be good for an all day set on my make up. This is a fantastic product. Its soooo smooth hence the velvet touch name. It also has quite a nice fragrance as well. I only needed a tiny amount and my make up stayed on all night with no touch up needed.This primer provides a great finish and evens out everything. It dries in really quickly as well and soaks great into the skin. I used this after moisturising, under my foundation and then set it with a loose powder. There are so many primers on the market and I dont use it every day only really on nights out and things but it definetely does what it says. This product is available at www.superdrug.com , www.goshcosmetics.com  RRP £9.99
