July Favourites

04 August 2014


 July has whizzed by and I'm starting to get very nervous about the first part of my degree with the OU! My study texts have arrived and everything seems to be falling into place, scary! Having said that, I've had some great products to play around with this month. 





I've been absolutely loving I ♥ Makeup this month, the Death by Chocolate palette has been gracing my eyelids nearly every day with it's lovely shimmery neutrals! I can't get enough of it. I've also been really enjoying playing around with my Lip Geek lipsticks, Cherry Bomb is still my favourite shade out of the three I own, but I might end up looking to expand my collection soon!





July was also the month that I discovered Memebox! I've already reviewed two of their boxes, and I've got plenty more on the way. This Aloe Vera gel from the Aloe Vera Superbox has been a life saver this month. The UK has had some seriously hot weather and being someone who doesn't deal with the heat well, I've loved being able to put this in the fridge and then smother myself with it!




I've also finally managed to get hold of some of the summer Barry M Gelly shades and I am loving Kiwi and Damson! They look great together or on their own, and are the usual quality you would expect from Barry M. You can find them at your nearest Boots or Superdrug, I was lucky enough to nab these in a 3 for 2 deal, bargain!




What do you think of my favourites? Are there any that you would like to try?



First Impressions: I ♥ Makeup Death By Chocolate Palette

23 July 2014


I am so pleased I have this palette, it came out before I got paid and when I went to buy all of my other Makeup Revolution goodies, it had sold out! Luckily it came back into stock not long after that so I put in a super quick order and now its here!




How beautiful is that packaging? I just love the feel of this palette, it has a lovely weight to it and the outer casing is just so unusual! I've read on other blogs that they couldn't detect any chocolatey scent from this palette, but I definitely can. It's a little bit synthetic but still quite a unique touch!




And there they are, another lovely palette full of shimmery neutrals! I'm so easily pleased.




 This is the top row. Don't Let Go and Consume Me are obviously my faves, but I'm in love with how jet black All is Lost is. White Light is basically the same shade as my skin, but I probably won't use it anyway.




The second row is where we really get going. There's a couple of mattes in there, but just look at the shimmer on Fool's Gold. It's beautiful. The mattes are a bit better than in the Salvation palettes, but I'd still probably skip them.




This is the bottom row and I want these shades on my eyelids right now. They're all gorgeous and really fit with the chocolatey theme of the palette. I honestly couldn't pick a favourite shade, I love them all.


The Death By Chocolate palette retails for £7.99 and is available here. If you're a fan of shimmery neutrals then you need this in your life, it's quickly become one of my go to palettes!
