Brow routine July 2016

Hello guys today I have a brow routine post for you showing you the best brow products I have used this month.

First I brush through my eyebrows with no product in them using a simple brow brush.

Then I use my benefit goof proof brow pencil this is one of benefits new brow products and it has honestly changed my brows it makes them look amazing. It is a wind up pencil and comes in many shades I use shade 2 which works perfect for me and it fills in my brows perfectly and arches them wonderfully.

I use the brow pencil then thicken them up and set them I use benefits gimmie brow in the light/medium shade this adds some colour whilst thickening up and setting you brows so they stay in place all day and night. This is an amazing gel formula which sets my brows and adds colour.

updated mac lipstick collection

Hello everybody,

I would first like to start this post by apologising for a lack of posts and delayed posts as June has been a very busy month full of birthdays! Anyway I am back with an UPDATED mac lipstick collection 2016.

Lets get on with the post.

I have a slight obsession with mac lipsticks however to me I don't have an extensive collection I still have quite a few lipsticks.
The shades I have range from nudes to reds. All mac lipsticks are 15.50.

1. Full fuchsia
This lipstick is a bright hot pink perfect for the summer time. It is an amplified finish which makes it quite a shiny finish and its very moisturising. Its staying power is amazing and It stays on even through drinking.

 2. Whirl
This is the newest edition to my collection and it is whirl a matte finish browny colour. I use this one all the time and since I got it I could honestly say it has probably been my favourite mac lipstick in my collection. It again has amazing staying power which is excellent considering it is a matte finish. It is not too drying and its amazing quality.

3.Dreaming Dhalia
This is an old mac lipstick which I bought in the summer of 2014 in America. It was part of the spring/summer 2014 collection and it is a orange/ red colour. It is a lusture finish so it has a really nice sheen to it which makes your lips shine and the colour is perfect for summer.

4. Twig
Twig is the second most recent to my mac lipstick collection and it is a satin finish brown/nude colour. It has a slight sheen on the colour but I could wear this easily as an everyday colour.

5. Crème in your coffee
Crème in your coffee is again like twig a beautiful brown/nude colour. This lipstick is a cremesheen finish and is perfect for later on in the year however I wear it all year round. It is a cult classic mac lipstick which has amazing reviews.

6. Viva glam 1
This is a dark red matte finish lipstick which is perfect for nights out. It is quite drying but if you prime your lips they should be fine. The colour payoff and staying power is amazing and the lipstick is highly pigmented.

7. Strip poker
Strip poker was a limited edition lipstick which was bought out with the release of the Kelly Osborne collection. It is a matte finish and it is a nude colour which is also known as a concealer nude. The packaging for this lipstick is really cool it is a matte purple with writing on it.

8. Crème d' nude
This is a beautiful cremesheen lipstick which is now in the permanent mac lipsticks but I got mine in the limited edition wash ad dry collection which came out early 2015. The packaging on this lipstick is beautiful it has an ombre effect as it starts of a blue/green and fades into orange/yellow.

Those are my lipsticks now I have lip glasses and lip liner.

1. Nacho cheese explosion
This is a really out going lip glass from mac Simpson collection it was limited edition however it is a really cool shade. I don't tend to wear this shade unless its over top of  lipstick or im trying to create a look, as the shade is Yellow!

2. Ready or not!
This is pink/nude lip glass which has beautiful shimmers in it. This can be easily worn everyday and it lasts quite a long time. It quite sticky but because of this it stays on for long periods of time.

3. Soar lip liner
I finally got my hands on this around Easter this year as it and been sold out for weeks as it was rumoured to be Kylie Jenner's favourite mac lip liner so everyone wanted to try it for themselves.
It Is the perfect nude colour and I use this all over my lips sometimes for a matte finish long lasting nude colour.
