I've picked up a few things from the drugstore and I thought I would share them with you!
I'm aware I haven't written a post for a while, I've been dealing with a few things but hopefully I'll get back on track now!
I picked up the Real Techniques setting brush and a few days later I decided to get the sculpting set as well. I didn't realise until I got home that the set came with the setting brush as well! So now I have 2 haha, The brush that caught my eye most was the fan brush. I don't own a brush similar to this one and I thought it would be great to try for highlighting. I've been using one of the setting brushes for concealing and the other for applying powder to my under eyes. I love the shiny pink on the brushes too!
I've seen a lot of hype around the Maybelline The Eraser Eye so I decided to give it ago. With suffering from dark under eye circles I'm always happy to try new concealers. It's quite a heavy duty concealer which gives really good coverage. I like the sponge applicator to help apply the concealer and as its a nice creamy consistency it blends really well.The only negative is that towards the end of the day it does start to crease.
The new Maybelline Falsies Push up Drama mascara has been on my want list before it was released. I've been using for the last few weeks and it's pretty good! It's not my favourite mascara I own but it adds some serious drama! The thing that lets it down to me is that it's not very defining and can end up clumpy if you apply more than one coat. It does however add a lot of volume.
The last make up item I purchased was the Rimmel Fix and Perfect make up primer. I've been looking for more good drugstore primers and this one is part of Rimmels new primer range. This one is white when it comes out of the tube with a slight shimmer in, which creates a nice subtle glow when applied. It blends into the skin really well and does make a lovely base. I find this one is really moisturising and helps keep my makeup in the same place all day! A bonus is that it has an SPF of 25, just because it's winter doesn't mean there aren't any UV rays!
The Ardell demi-wispies are technically not drug store products as I got them from Amazon but they were of drugstore price at £2.99! I wanted to venture out beyond my usual Eyelure eyelashes and this brand seemed to have pretty good reviews! Demi wispies are supposed to look more natural than other fake eyelashes as they are woven in a certain way and have a clear band. Very excited to try these on my next night out!
Lastly I picked up the Dove Pure Care Dry Oil shampoo and conditioner. I've been using these together for about a week and they have left my hair feeling lovely! They're both really hydrating and make my hair look really glossy and sleek. The shampoo lathers really well and although it comes out looking really oily it didn't make my roots greasy or anything like that! The conditioner feels really thick and nourising. Both have a lovely smell to them.
