I was recently browsing the benefit website and wishing I had enough money to buy everything on there, when I stumbled across the sale section. I thought to myself, I may as well treat myself to a few of these fantastically priced items. All of them were around £7 each!





The first product I decided to get is the Velvet Eyeshadow in the colour 'Nice Melons'. I think this is a really pretty colour and it goes on really nicely.



This is a picture of it on just on its own and I think it looks really pretty for a day time look. However it could also be nice for an evening if you added a darker colour and did a bit more shading to it. It goes on really smooth and you don't need a lot.




The next product is the Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner in the colour 'Strut'. I only chose this colour because it was the only one left but I'm very happy with it. This could be really nice as a shadow base for a night time look or a smokey eye look.



I decided to try it out first however, as a liner and I really like it. It is good if you don't want such a bold black liner and you want a bit of a softer look which is what I have gone for here. I like the consistency of the product as it is not too thick, it feels really silky and it is easy to apply and work with. To put this on I just used a small angled brush and it worked perfectly.





Finally I got the Full Finish Lipstick in the colour 'Saucy'. I'm not sure why I chose this colour, I think it was just because I own a lot of pink shades of lipstick and I wanted to try something different. I really like this, I was a bit worried when I bought it because I thought it was going to be a bright orange and that it would just look silly on me.



However it turns out that it is quite subtle on the lips and has a nice shimmer to it. The picture above is what it looks like on (sorry it's a bit rubbish, couldn't get the lighting right). It's very moisturizing and when you apply it, it doesn't feel dry, it goes on nice and smooth.



This is the completed look with all three products on.

I am really happy with my new purchases and hopefully I will get a lot of wear out of them. The whole order came to £24.00 including postage and packaging which I think is a good old bargain for premium brand make up!

Love Marie
