|Make Up Revolution | Fortune Favours The Brave Palette

You may have seen this palette all over Instagram and Twitter as it has been really hyped! As you can see it is beautiful!
The palette is the Make Up Revolution 'Fortune Favours The Brave' by British Beauty Blogger.


The colours stood out to me as they are beautiful and are colours that i would wear. The pigmentation is great but some are not as pigmented as others which is to be expected with this many shadows! I have been using the bronze/gold tones a lot recently and they are gorgeous!


The palette includes a range of mattes and shimmers. The price is £9.99 which is great value for all this shadows.
 The packaging is beautiful, i like that is in a hard plastic case, it feels and looks a lot more expensive that it actually is.
This would be great for travel as you can create lots of different looks with just the one palette.
You can purchase here.

Dupe Alert! |Mac Amber Lights

It has been a while since i have found a dupe in my make up collection but i am pretty pleased with this one!
I have found a dupe for Mac 'Amber Lights' Eyeshadow which is one of my new favourite eyeshadows

In the pan the shades look near enough the same, when swatched the make up revolution has more glitter but the colour is the same both of the shadows last for the same amount of time around 8 hours so that is a plus.
Amber Lights retails for £13 and Mountains Of Gold retails for £1!

|Favourite Contour Products

Contour kits are everywhere at the moment every brand seems to be bringing them out. I use all of these kits as i have been rotating my make up collection!

|Freedom Pro Contour Kit |£3.50
This is the palest one that i have in my collection. The highlighter is matte, I think this is the best one for really pale skin as it isn't overly pigmented so you can really go wrong!

|Collection Highlight & Sculpt | £4.19
The most recent one i have bought and i have been using this most days. The highlight shade in this one does a a little shimmer running through it which i really like.

|Make Up Revolution Contour Kit | £3.50
I accidentally picked this up in a fair/medium when i wanted the fair shade, so it is a lot darker than i would have liked but if i use a light hand i can work with it! Included in this kit is also a highlight and a blush which i haven't used as it looks far too dark for my skin tone!

|Benefit Hoola Bronzer |£23.50
Probably one of the most talked about products in the blogging world but it is definitely worth all the hype!

Review |Make Up Revolution 'Ultra Metals' Contour Foundation Brush

Make Up Revolution have just brought out a new range of brushes that as you can see are very reminiscent of the Real Techniques 'Bold Metals' range but much cheaper! I never wanted to pay the prices of Real Techniques so i am very happy about these new brushes!

I chose this brush from the range to try first as i haven't got anything like this in my collection. It is the Ultra Contour Foundation brush and cost £9.99 which is a lot cheaper than the Real Techniques counterpart. The bristles are so soft and the rose gold colour is very on trend! They are so pretty and look great on my vanity!

I will definitely be buying more from the range as they are great quality.
Available from Superdrug or the MUR website.

|Make Up Revolution 'Colour Block'

When i first saw these i hadn't seen anything like this before so had to get one! 
These are great gift ideas for anybody who loves make up!

They are available in either red or pink. You get a lip gloss, lipstick and nail polish which are full size as well as the acrylic box which i think is great as it is reusable!
I haven't used the products yet but as they are by Make Up Revolution i suspect they will be great quality as their other products are!

Available from Superdrug here. Its currently on offer for £4.00 and are normally £7!

Review| Make Up Revolution Brow Kit

I always like to try new brow products, pencils or powders and when i saw this kit for £2.50 i couldn't pass it up!
This is in the shade light/medium, There is a dark shade. I love how it includes a mini pair of tweezers and brush!
The range of shades in the kit is very helpful as you can mix the shades to find your perfect colour.
The powder lasted all day and didn't smudge. I highly recommend this little kit as it's very handy and inexpensive.

This kit is available from Superdrug or the Make Up Revolution website.

Top 5 |Autumn Lipsticks

It's time again for the dark vampy lips to make and appearance which i can say i am very happy about! I have picked out my favourite autumn lipsticks to share with you.

First of all i just want to say that 3 might look the same but i can assure you that there are some differences!!





|Make Up Revolution 'Rebel With Cause'
An old favourite from last year i wore this non stop, it has a sheeny finish not glossy but not matte either. It lasts very well on the lips considering the finish.

|Mac Creme cup
Gotta have a nude lipstick included as in Autumn i like a dark smokey eye, this one is perfect! This is a creamsheen finish.

|I Heart Make up 'Racing Heart'
This lipsticks swatches a lot more pink toned than it looks in the bullet. I love the heart shaped applicator! 

||Rimmel  Kate '107'
A blogger favourite that makes an appearance every year! Perfect matte dark red.

|Wet'n'Wild 'Cherry Picking'
A new find for me this year, again another matte lipstick. This is very pigmented and opaque.

Review| Make Up Revolution Contour Palette

I have been looking for this in store for months as i do prefer to try before i buy make up rather than order online! 
I picked up the wrong shade i got medium but should be fair, i was so annoyed it was in the wrong place!! I won't be using the blush as it is too dark for me and just doesn't look good on my skin! The highlighter reminds me of a little less pigmented sleek contour kit highlight which is one of my favourite highlighters.
The products are all very pigmented and not chalky at all.
It lasts around 6/7 hours which is a reasonable amount of time. I really like this palette, it is great for travel and would definitely repurchase the fair one which would be better for my skin tone!  

The price is £3.50 available in Superdrug and online.

|Shopping My Stash

Shopping my stash is something that i have never done but I was Spring cleaning all my make up collection and came across a lot of products that i haven't used in a while!


First up is some Make Up Revolution pigments which i think i got on my first order from them last year and i have only used them a few times, So it time to work them into a make up look!
I have two eye shadow palettes that i have never used and have only been swatched. I have been loving wearing green so this is a great find it is the LA Colours  and the NYX palette which contains copper/bronzey shades, I can't wait to use these because they suit my eye colour!
The Seventeen Photo Flawless primer is something that i used all the time and i have been through about 4 tubes but this is my last and it has been discontinued which i am not happy about!!
MUA single shadows are amazing i have loads of bright coloured ones so now that the weather should be getting warmer and we are in Spring i will be using them.
I own 3 of the Bourjois colour boost sticks they are all bright, Spring appropriate colours so they will be getting a lot of use in the near future!

|Spring Lipsticks

Now that spring has arrived i like to put away that dark berry shades and bring out the bright pinks, purples and corals! In Spring i like to tone down the eye make up and focus the look on the lip colour.



|Bourjois  Orange Punch
As the name suggests this is an orange lipstick! It can be build up to look very bright but i like to use apply it and then pat the colour in as it gives a softer look. It is a glossy finish lipstick.

|NYC 'Air kiss'
A bright fuschia pink, this is very pigmented and creamy. It lasts about 4 hours on the lips which i think it great considering how creamy it is. This is a semi matte lipstick as it does have a slight sheen.

|MAC 'Sunny Seoul'
This is a lighter pink with more of a sheerer pigment than the other lipsticks. This is a cremesheen finish.

|Illamasqua 'Cherub'
Cherub is an orange toned nude i would say, it could be nude on some skin tones but on mine it more on the orange side. The finish on this lipstick is more of sheen as it isn't glossy or matte!

|Seventeen 'Pink Posey'
I love different shades of purples all throughout the year and this is my spring/summer purple as it it bright would can also be applied lighter if you don't want an as in your face colour!


|Make Up Revolution 'Bliss'
This is a coral/peach colour that is a little lighter than the first lipstick. This would be a perfect everyday colour. This again has a sheen finish to it.

|2014 Beauty & Hair Favourites

It has taken me weeks to condense these products down and i am not even joking! I went through all my favourites posts and chose from them. I decided on a product from each category e.g foundation, blush as well as hair care favourites and quite a few lipstick! i just couldn't choose!. Instead of making this a very, very long post i will list the products and if i have an existing review on them i will link it!





|Loreal Miss manga mascara
A lot of hype around this launch this year but it has been my favourite mascara of the year. It adds length and volume.

|Stila In the light palette
Some of the best eye shadows i have ever used, so creamy, pigmented and blendable. I definitely want to try more stila shadows! 

|Make Up Revolution powder blushes
This brand has been an amazing launch this year and i love everything is have tried from them especially the blushes as they are only £1, have a range of colours and are long lasting! I now have all the shades available!

|Seventeen Concealer (review)
I have been using this for a few months now and i think it is great, i prefer this to the hugely popular Collection concealer, controversial i know!

|Essence Lip Liners (review)
The best lip liners i have used, i never really used them before i tried these. These are inexpensive at £1 and are pigmented and long lasting!

|Loreal Cheryl's nude
Another Loreal launch this year, it's unusual for me to include Loreal really as i only own about 3 products from them as i never seem to want to buy anything from them but i really liked this lipstick this year and it's a great colour and goes with any eye or make up look!

|Rimmel Foundation
The foundation that i have used the most this year i use the match perfection, wake me up and 25 hour foundations as they have the perfect match to my skin colour.

|Make Up Revolution Lipstick (Rebel with cause)   (Review)
Before i tried this i had never really reached for dark lipsticks but it is now one of my most worn lip sticks!

|Rimmel lipstick (101)
The formula is a matte formula and it is a great everyday shade that suits any make up look and also lasts for ages! 

|Mac Please Me lipstick
Nude lips has been a massive trend this year due to Kylie Jenner! This is one of the longest lasting lip sticks i have ever tried! 

|Essence Lip glosses  (review)
I never really wore lip glosses until i tried these! They are amazing! The finish is very shiny, so if you don't like that then these aren't for you, but they are not sticky at all!

|Collection Brow kit  (review)
I'm terrible at doing my brows and this made it easier as there are 3 colours to suit every brow so you can mix the shades to find the right one.
