Vampiress Beauty Randomness 18


Vaseline Lip Therapy in Cocoa Butter- A nice twist to the Vaseline Pocket Size range. I love anything cocoa butter and vanilla. I do detect a vanilla smell to this with the cocoa. A thin slightly glossy consistency and does the job, this is yummy! Costs only £1.99 too. :)





Twilight Beauty Volturi Labyrinth Loose Eyeshadow in Dawn- A beautiful antiqued shimmering bronze. Heavily pigmented and I think I applied too much in my swatch. The loose pigment is chunky but easily blended and seems to stick to the eyelid very well. I love these shadows, they have soft almost liquefied texture.






Barry M Glitter Liquid Eyeliner in 03- I have no idea what the actual name of this is, as they took it off the website and I only purchased it around 2 weeks ago at Superdrug. It's a beautiful colour with tones of silver, grey and blue. It's very densely packed and the glitters are tiny.





Rimmel Cool Shine Lipstick in 030 Plunge- Anyone remember these lipsticks? They were on the market for a few months, around a few years back and then suddenly disappeared and landed in large amounts at pound shops, that's when I picked a load up. I really wonder why? Rimmel seem to have a knack at discontinuing lip products very quickly, much like a very well loved lipstick in Foxy

Anyhow going onto the actual lipstick, it has a lovely pleasing cooling sensation and it doesn't feel like menthol. Glossy it is and the pigment is very good for these types of lipsticks. The colours came mostly in shimmering sparkly shades. Plunge is a strawberry sparkled pink. 



Prestige Cosmetics Lipstick in PL-45A Desire

This is the first time I've tried one of Prestige lipsticks, I love the formula but don't find this particular colour exciting. The swatch on the website looks absoutely nothing like the real thing it looks almost like a yummy bold bubblegum pink with a cream finish but in reality it's a shimmery pearl candyfloss pink.

The lipstick is housed in a hard duty silver metallic casing, which is nice and sleek. It also has a window with actual lip colour inside instead of a label, just like NYX round lipsticks.

I find the colour pigmented and the texture nicely moisturising without being too slippery.  I don't detect any scent or taste. It's a hard to wrong colour and will go with anything just of course it's nothing special and I don't know what made me pick it up. You could probably find a similar shade in most brands. I'd love to try some other colours as I like the formula.

RRP is £5.99

Vampiress Beauty Randomness 16

 
NYX Round Lipstick in 564 Almost Black- Yes it almost is, it's a very blackened shade with a perfectly worked out colour of fig. These lipsticks are as cheap as chips and it's completely an opaque even creamy finish, that feels the way it looks. No scent or taste, wears off evenly and very moisturising.
 


 
Boots Reviving Foot Spray- Really does cool down tired, aching and sore feet.  Especailly when you wear uncomfortable shoes. In my case Goth boots! Though I wouldn't know if it kills smelling feet because fortunately I don't suffer from that problem, haha.

 

Avon Boho Chic Perfumed Body Spray- I wanted to love this but it's just way to grassy and citrus for my liking. Avon's description 'Inspired by summer flowers and fruits, this joyful, youthful fragrance has a hint of sensual musk' to me this is not really what it smells like.
These are on sale at the moment for £1.50 so I'll like to try some other scents they have to offer. :)




Twilight Beauty Volturi Labyrinth Loose Eyeshadow in Frost- Snowflakes in a jar is how I would describe it. Alone it just looks like sheer white shimmer but over the top of a cream shadow you get a intense glistening diamond effect.

Boots Sale Haul

I meant to post this a couple of days ago but didn't get around to doing it, so better late then never. All of it was half price apart from the Christina Aguliera set which was a third off.


Christina Aguliera By Night Gift Set- Contains a 30ml EDT which I already have a 50ml one and love, just only wish it was a little stronger. A 50ml Body Lotion and a Brush Set which is a amazing beautiful soft quality for being a freebie in a set.



Celia Birtwell Cosmetic Organizer & Makeup Brushes- Yet again lovely soft quality brushes, nevertheless her stuff is always spot on quality.


Fresh Cupcake Suprise- Contains a Face Cloth and Raspberry Lip Licker. The Face Cloth smells gorgeous and fruity and I'm scared to wash it, let alone use it. The lip licker is quite oily but smelling as good as it smells you kind of forget about it. You also get a something else, as the plastic container that's the cupcake is reusable and perfect for little table top storage.





No7 Shimmer Powder And Puff- A nice big size of 23G. Beautiful puff and golden white finely milled glowy shimmers.



Scarlett & Crimson Totally Nailed Set- Contains a nice sized PVC clear zip bag, 3 nail polishes, 2 nail files, toe separators and a sheet of nail stickers. A very lovely set and I'm really glad I bought it. Scarlett & Crimson is also by Ruby & Millie.

Accessorize Merged Eyeshadows

Recently Fashion Accessory store 'Accessorize' launched a new makeup line. To be honest I wasn't expecting much, but seeing it in person in my local Superdrug (you can also buy these at Accessorize) . I'm quite surprised, they've released a lot of it and there's a load of eye catching shades...not to mention reasonable prices.


There's quite a few of these 'Merged' eyeshadows that caught my attention, being the mineralized baked type that are usually made by more of the higher end brands *coughs MAC*
Each them cost just £4.50 each and I got three of them.

The texture feels like the norm 'baked' type which is quite hard and not greatly soft, but with one swatch you get descent amount of colour which I was not expecting. All of them have a shimmer finish and the veining gives the final colour a twist. These can also be applied wet but I hate doing so as it usually means a product will expire quicker. I prefer my Urban Decay Primer Potion and NYX Jumbo pencils for more intense stay-put colour.

Shade 2 Pink Planet- A Pretty rosy pink but the lilac veining makes the colour cooler and more iced.

Shade 4 Moon Dust- A shimmery cream but the yellow gold and brown colours make this colour a champagne.

Shade 6 Cocoa- A cool chocolate brown with hints of turquoise and white. There's a ton of veining in this one.

Purchased at Superdrug.
