Soleil Tan De Chanel Bronzer!


When I was in England on holiday, I bought my first ever Chanel product! I've seen and heard loads of beauty gurus and YouTubers raving about this and I've been dying to try it out!


The packaging is absolutely lush, Chanel has got to be one of my favourite packaging! Its so designer and makes you look really fancy when you have it!

For a Chanel product, I think £32 was a very reasonable price for this bronzer. I was willing to pay and I think it was money well spent!

This is now my go to bronzer that I use for contouring! I've never had a cream bronzer before as I tend to stick to powders but I'm amazed with how natural this product looks!

Its not too dark which is something I worth about with bronzers as I'm very pale and its hard to get one without making it go orange or look muddy.

This product really amazed me and I'm totally in love with it! Its a big container so should last me a long time but when I do eventually run out, I will definitely repurchase!

The Balm Nude'tude Palette!



Recently I got a new palette! I had seen M from Emily-Victoria Canham on YouTube using this palette and she was raving about how much she loved it, so I decided to purchase it too! I think this is a great nude palette, maybe for someone starting out in eyeshadow as it's got alot of neutral colours in it. 
These eyeshadows are so amazing and I'd never purchased anything from The Balm before so I am so impressed with this brand! I will definitely be purchasing some more products from there. The eyeshadows in this palette and so bold and pigmented and give really great colour payoff. It's not the kind of eyeshadows you need to be rubbing your brush in all the time to get colour to go onto it, they go on the brush straight away and are really bold on the eye. They show up really well. You also get a shadow/liner brush with this palette as you do with most eyeshadow palettes.

The colours:
Top row - left to right
Sassy - Stubborn - Selfish - Sophisticated - Sexy - Serious
Bottom row - left to right
Snobby - Stand Offish - Sultry - Seductive - Silly - Sleek

I also love the names of all these shades, I think it's a really well thought out palette and I highly recommend it to anyone as it's not too pricey either. It would make a great gift to a friend, sister or your mum! My favourite shades are Sassy, Stubborn and Sexy.

Let me know in the comments if you have this palette and what your favourite shades are!

Drugstore Makeup Tag!

Hey everyone!

So I came across a little tag and thought it would be nice to do! As far as I know, it was made by the blog - MAKEUP BY ALLI - don't quote me on that. So check her out if you haven't already! It's just 10 little straight forward questions about drugstore products and brands! Here goes! :)


1. What is your favorite drugstore makeup brand overall?

Hmm, tricky but I think it's a toss up between Rimmel London and L'Oreal Paris! They are both great drugstore brands and I tend to buy a lot from both!






2. What are your favourite face, cheek and lip products?


My favourite face product, e.g foundation, is definately the L'Oreal True Match Foundation. It is amazing, I use it every day and it is such a good foundation for my skin tone as I'm quite pale and it tries to match your skin colour. I also like the Wake Me Up Foundation from Rimmel.
My favourite cheek product is my Rimmel London Blush in 120 Pink Rose. I love this blush and once again, I like to use it everyday. It is a lovely colour and really complements my skin tone.
My favourite lip product is my Kate Moss Lipstick in 113 Nude. I love this nude colour as it's perfect. I don't tend to go for very all out lip products so this nude colour is perfect.


3. Least favourite product?

I don't think I have a particular least favourite product but I don't really like drugstore jumbo lipsticks. I think they're too chunky and some (not all) are not really worth the hype. I do like a few from Rimmel, but that's all I think.


4. What is the best makeup bargain?

I think the best drugstore makeup bargain is foundations. I honestly think that the majority of drugstore foundations are a really acceptable price and are amazing quality. It's certainly a lot cheaper than brands like Mac and they do the same job. I love buying drugstore foundations over high end ones!


5. What is your favourite underdog product? (Something you love that often gets overlooked?)

My favourite underdog product is... hmm... difficult one! Probably my Collection Mosaic Bronzer. I love this stuff. I love how it's got a little shimmer in it and if you swirl all the colours together, you get the perfect colour! 


6. A drugstore product that is overpriced?

I think most of the Bourjois products are a little overpriced. I know it's an expensive brand but compared to most other drugstore brands, it costs a lot more.


7. Show your best drugstore dupe(s)!!

I don't really have any drugstore dupes that I can think of!


8. Drugstore product that isn't worth the hype?

I think a drugstore product that isn't worth the hype is Babylips. I just overall don't like them that much. I prefer EOS eggs!


Lots of love
