Kylie Jenner Dupes?

I am a huge fan of Kylie Jenner's Lip range and signature lip colours and when I seen that she was releasing her kits I was pretty excited - but living in Northern Ireland it is incredibly difficult to get your hands on these kinds of products from higher end brands - so I decided to go on a hunt to try and find some lip products that could be a dupe for the Kylier Jenner Lip Kits and I think I have found them *squeals*

And they are the....... Max Factor Lipfinity Lip Colours

 I found three shades which I think are the perfect dupes for Kylie Jenners lip colours - they are a liquid lipstick which dries to a matte finish, but with the clear balm to put on top it adds a very nice sheen and makes them very moisturising an long lasting.They aren't drying and are very comfortable and for only £10.99 they are reasonably affordable from your local drugstore. The only "problem" I guess you could say is that you don't get a lot of product, I would say only 1/3 of the packaging is the product and the rest is the brush - and within each set you get a balm - I would have preferred to have had more product for the £10.99 and then been able to buy the balm seperately (which you can actually do) instead of paying £10.99 each time and getting another balm and hardly any product.

Pay Day Splurge

I got a little excited when I got paid and made a trip to Yankee Candle because I love candles, and Superdrug to see what goodies I could get and there were a few 3 for 2 offers, which do bad things to me and my bank balance, but no matter, I love make up and this is what I picked up :)

Makeup Revolution is fast becoming one of my favourite drugstore brands, so when I seen this highlighter palette and lip lacquer I new I had to get them. I've also heard so many good things about the MUA velvet lip lacquers so I decided to try them

Maybelline was doing a 3 for 2 offer acros all of their make-up so I decided to pick up their new Master Sculpt kit, I also picked up their baby skin primer becaue I've heard so many good things about it but never thought to try it and finally I picked up a new colour sensational lipstick

Bourjois also had a 3 for 2 on their makeup and I new without doubt, that I had to try their new Aqua Blush so I picked up two and also a Rouge Edition Aqua Lacquer 

And finally I picked up a new Bourjois chocolate bronzer because my other was just crap and also a new Revolution blush :)

Spring/Summer Makeup Shopping

So I may have gotten a little excited when I got paid.... I have been dying to get some new makeup and with lack of money rolling in - you can be well assured that when I got a decent amount, I may have went a little overboard. But ah well, it's done now :)

I picked up quite a few things from Superdrug as they were having a 3 for 2 on all of their makeup - and offers just ruin my bank account. But I picked up 3 of the single eyeshadows from Revlon, a Rouge Edition Velvet liquid lipstick from Bourjois, Makeup Revolution Setting spray and blush, a Barry M contour kit and two lottie london make up brushes

I then picked up two of the Tanya Burr lip glosses from Gordon's Chemist 

And finally, I got the most amazing, perfect, clean Spring/Summer bag ever! I got this from Newlook and it is amazing! Its rucksack and it's mine <3

L'Oreal 3 for 2

I love L'Oreal, it is by far one of the best drugstore brand that you can purchase and when I seen they had it on 3 for 2 in Superdrug, I knew I had to take advantage. So I picked up the Lumi Magique Foundation (£10.99) the Lumi Magique Primer (£9.99) and the Telescopic Mascara in Extreme Black (£10.99) I got the Primer for free which I thought was a pretty awesome bargain. 

The main item I wanted was the foundation - I had heard and seen so many good things about this in Youtube and I'm pretty sure Nicole Querriero is a fan of this foundation. I went for the shade W5 because I do fake tan and the tan I use is quite golden and it's so hard trying to find a foundation with the same warmth and golden tone so I went for this one and I love it. I then picked up the primer because when I swatched it, it was gorgeousssss and I like to co-ordinate and finally I picked up the mascara becaue I had also heard a lot of good things about the original Telescopic mascara and I figured I may as well :)

I will be doing reviews of these items soon so keep an eye out :)

Some Splurging (Again :))

I have been trying nearly all of these products for a good few weeks now and I love them all! Reviews will be coming soon :)

I have been Splurging

So over the past few weeks, I have accumulated a number of products, some random pieces and a lot of makeup - all from the drugstore as it is my favourite place on earth, so without further a due...  here are the items I have gathered over the past month or so

I hope you enjoy :)

Superdrug Haul

I love Superdrug, it's probably my favourite drugstore ever, they always have amazing offers which I just have to get. I did pick up a few items the other week so I thought I'd show them to you guys :)

I purchased the eyeshadow stick, bronzer and lip butter from Collection all for £2.50! They were on sale, I almost died. The eyeshadow stick is lovely, you can see a swatch of it below, it's really iridescent and helps to illuminate my tearducts and brow bone. The bronzer is also gorgeous - it has a slight shimmer and as it's a mosaic, it helps to add extra dimension with the different shades. The lip butter crayon is a really lovely plum colour, its pigmentation is lovely and it lasts quite a good few hours - all are brilliant for the price! I also picked up the Little Mix love eyeshadow palette for £3.99 and it is so nice, the shades are lovely and really pigmented.

There are 5 shimmer shades and one matte

Shade 2 - Radiant

Vanilla Sky 1

4 Perfect Plum

I then purchased another Revlon Colourstay Moisture Stain in 040 Shanghai Sizzle - it's a beautiful red shade, it's really glossy and moisturising on my lips, I love it. Plus it was on sale for £5.99! Bargain

:)

Small Haul

My intial plan when I went into town was to buy a new lipstick, just one... but my plan failed. With help from my boyfriend, who egged me on to buy things, I may have bought too much. The shops I bought from were Superdrug, Boots, TkMaxx and Poundland, we'll start with Poundland and work our way back. 

The reason I went to Poundland was because I really wanted a glass mug for the likes of hot chocolate and smoothies etc. and I seen this... yes it is a classic beer mug, but for only being £1, I had to get it. I will be using it for smoothies and what not because it is really quite awesome. I love it

Next I went to TkMaxx, I love there wee storage boxes and as I'm a huge book lover, when I seen these storage boxes I just had to get them, plus they were really inexpensive. The smaller one, Paris, was only £3.99 and I'll be using this to keep my passport and house kets etc. in. The larger one, Italy, was £4.99 and I'll be using that to store some of my make-up

And lastly I went to Superdrug and Boots. Initially, like I said before I just wanted to buy a new lipstick, so I went to Superdrug because they usually have really good offers, unfortunately I didn't see any, which sucked, but then I went over to Sleek and seen that their Lipsticks are only £4.99! I was really surprised and had to get one. I then went over to Collection and looked at their lip pencils and seen they have a really nice plum shade, which I've wanted for ages, and for only £2.99  had to get it. 

From Boots I got two Revlon lip products because they had an offer on, two lip or nail products for £10, and as I've been eyeing up their moisture stains, I had to get one and then I seen a really lovely matte red lipticks which would be perfect for autumn/winter.

5 Damson

788 Mulberry (Sheen)

005 Parisian Passion

006 Really Red (Matte)

As you can probably tell, I am preparing my lip products for the autumn/winter season, as it is only around the corner. Let me know if you've tried any of these products and what you think :)
