Battle Review - Benefit Brow Zings Vs Benefit Instant Brow Pencil

This battle review will be based on benefit brow products.
So first off i tried Benefit Brow Zings, this handy set comes with a brow setting gel, brow powder & a brush for each. The brow gel is so effective it gives your brows nice shape without making them looked slicked down or greasy. The brow powder is also amazing it doesn't clump or appear too heavy and the shades actually match real eyebrows unlike others i have tried. The brushes are perfect for their purpose; the correct shape so you don't overload on how much you apply. Overall thought on this product were 10/10.
Next I tried the Benefit Instant Brow Pencil. Now I don't usually use brow pencils as my eyebrows are dark I stray away from anything giving them the 'drawn on' look. But I must say after speaking to the lovely assistants at the Benefit Counter I decided to try it & loved it. For a pencil it doesn't give too denser colour and gives a shadow effect in the way that it isn't just a straight pencil line. The colour is great and the brush on the end is handy for combing before and then spreading out the colour afterwards. My product rating would be 9/10.
So the winner of my battle review is Benefit Brow Zings I will definetly be purchasing this again - Let me know what you think beauts :) xoxo

L'orèal Lash Architect 4D in action!

As you can see i have length but not alot of volume. Sorry about the lack of lashes I have the bad habit of picking at them. xoxo

L'oréal Paris Lash Architect 4D Review

Review- This next review is for L'oréal Paris Lash Architect 4D Mascara, in Black Lacquer. Blurb: False lash effect in 4 Dimensions. This mascara was a slight panic buy as I'd ran out of my old'faithful but I must say it was a good buy at that. This mascara works wonders if you want to lengthen your lashes, it really does give a false lash effect and highlights every lash. The colour is the perfect black it's very dark and extremely matte which is just what I look for in a mascara. For me though I need a mascara that makes lashes look fuller as I have the bad habit of picking my mascara of so it's a must for me. This particular mascara didn't really thicken my lashes. But I know I will definitely be using it on nights out to give me a wide eyed effect. It has my seal of approval :) but let me know if you have any comments or reviews too! xoxo

Beauty Rush Fragrance Mist

So Beauties, my first review. This product is a fragrance mist by Victoria's Secret from their range 'Beauty Rush'. This one is called Sweet Tease and is the vanilla cream & sparkling berries scent. Blurb: A flirty-fresh sensation. Weightless formula treats skin to a sexy pop of scent. I purchased this from stansted airport as I thought it would be a great scent for my holiday & it was exactly that. It's very sweet and brings a summer feel to your smell, although a warning to all those who do not like sweet perfumes/sprays this one is not for you. A fragrance mist is great for the summer as it has a lightweight feel and doesn't disappear when your hot and bothered. My only disappointment with this particular mist is that the consistency is quite sticky so you have to make sure you only spray a little amount. Unfortunately in the UK we do not stock Beauty Rush but it is available online or if your at the airport look for their range they have plenty of testers available. xoxo
