Makeup Bag Must Haves: The Prettiest Makeup Brushes

Makeup Brushes To Make You Smile

Who doesn’t love a great makeup brush set? Now make that same set vegan and cruelty-free, colorful (red!!) and affordable too? I think that’s the makings of a great set of makeup brushes! Loella is a brand new beauty brand, who brushes are everything I’ve listed and so much more. The company was actually started by a dear friend of mine. She wanted to inject a little bit of fun and color into our everyday makeup routines and Loella was born! With her very first collection of brushes out, Girl on Fire (so aptly named, with them being red and such), I was lucky enough to get an entire set to try. Now, I’m usually quite fussy about brushes. I know how easy it is to get a brush that doesn’t work very well, nor does it last very long. These brushes do work very well, and they do last! I’m also a total sucker for the gorgeous color! You can buy these makeup brushes as a set of 5, 10 or individually! Don’t worry if red isn’t your color, she has a new set coming out at the end of this year!

What do you guys think of these makeup brushes? Are they going in your makeup bag?

5 Ways I Use NYX To Enhance My Makeup

I’ve heard a lot about NYX Makeup. I’ve seen them pop up at department stores, I’ve seen girls around me use their products, and I’ve admired the colour ranges. So when the lovely people at Debenhams offered to send me the new NYX makeup range in celebration of their launch, I couldn’t wait to try these products out for myself. After experimenting with the amazing products, Ive picked up five key ways that the new NYX products can enhance your makeup look!

Shop the new NYX range here!

There’s nothing worse than shiny patches on your face that aren’t meant to be there. A build up of oil can ruin your look. That’s why the NYX Shine killer is perfect for mattefying areas of your face and removing excess oil!

I love the Strobe Genius palette because it takes highlighting to a new level. Rather than my single shade of highlighter, I’m able to combine three different shades to create a more natural and gradual effect.

A simple way to make your eyes pop is actually with burgundy eye shadow! The NYX Ultimate palette has the perfect shade of red and brown. Combine them in the crease of your eye to really make your eyes stand out!

Eyeshadow isn’t just for your eyes! Add some ombre shine to your lips for the night, combining the gold from the NYX Ultimate palette and soft matte NYX lip cream!

Going from one place to another? Take your lips from matte to gloss in a simple step using the NYX butter gloss! I love having so many options so easily!

The new NYX range will be available in Debenhams shortly! Can’t wait to hear what you think!

Makeup Bag Must Haves: The Coolest New Eyeliner

Eyeliner Just Got Cooler…

Eyeliner is a staple for everyone’s makeup bag. I know that so many of us ask how to apply eyeliner, but what I’ve realised is that the type you have makes a huge difference! I’m always hunting for the best one out there, and I like to look beyond just the regular black shade. My latest discovery is the gorgeous blue Kajal from 3ina. I love the creamy texture and the pencil design makes it easy to grip and apply. Perfect for a bold look or even for blending. Plus, this pencil is cruelty free, which makes it even better don’t you think?

The Only Lipstick You Need This Month

February, the universal month of love. (Rather, the Hallmark month of love..every month should be a month of love in my opinion) The second month of the year where everyone’s new years resolutions of ‘reinventing themselves’ are either coming to an abrupt end, because who has time for that? Or are going strong especially with that new pyjama top you just added to your wardrobe. #trendy. Wherever you may fall on that spectrum, this lipstick is the only lipstick you need this month. It’s the perfect balance between warm and nude, and will fit with your look whether you’re going to a quick meeting, a quick coffee or a long dinner – Trish McEvoy Pink Nude has got your back.

Replace your nude with this one, now!

PS: Thank you Sonali Bhojwani for this – one of my favourite little presents!
