Rimmel - Rita Ora Spring Collection


As you can see I only have five from the collection and I absoloutely love them! The colours I have are, Rain Rain Go Away which is a really muted pastel grey shade, Peachella which is a lovely peach shade, Daisy Days is a really lovely lemon shade - I know it doesnt look it in the photo but thats just the instagram filter, Sweet Retreat which is a lovely pastel baby pink and Wild-er-Ness which is a gorgeous lilac shade.
The colours are all pastel/spring shades which are gorgeous, the pigment is also lovely and the colour comes out really well and opaque on the nails.
The one thing I don't like is the brush, it is almost tapered as some of the bristles are short on the outside and longer in the middle so it makes the initial application a little streaky, so you do need to apply 2/3 coats - but other than that, I love these and you should really check them out!

Brand Review - Technic










I'll be honest, I've never heard of this brand before and I only came across it because my work decided to bring in some make-up to help boost sales, and this is the brand they brought it. So far, I've been pleasently surprised, when I swatched the shadows on my hand while I was in work I was shocked, the pigmentation is wonderful and so are the colours in general, I will say though that the shadows may be a tad chalky, and I would guess that there would be a lot of fall out during application, but I don't mind that. For £1.80, what more could I expect? There were three palettes available, Nude, Bronze and Smokey; I got the nude and bronze because I don;t really wear grey/black smokey eyes so it would have just been a waste but so far I'm loving the palettes that I did purchase. I will say though that I would have preffered if the Nude palette had one matte colour as the Bronze and Smokey palettes did, but no matter.
For the nail polishes - I was immediately drawn to this colour, it's in the colour Indian Ocean and to me, it really does look like the perfect colour to represent the Indian ocean. I also love the fact there are two ends, it really adds the polish and I just couldn't help but by it, plus it was only £2.00! bargain! There were four of these polishes in total, but the others didn't really catch my eye, but considering how lovely this one was, I may just have to get them anyway!
