Im Back!

Wow, its been ages since i have made a blog post and im sorry to everyone who does read them that i have been slacking for about a month now! Oops!
But i am back.
I've purchased so many products over the last month, i havent been able to help myself.
Some that i have just replaced from my collection and others that i have purchased for the first time which i am loving.
So this is basically going to be a monthly favs post. (and also upcoming things that i have bought but not received yet) :D

I recently ran out of my PALMERS Cocoa Butter moiusteriser and i wanted to try something different. I have really dry skin and i wanted something that would fight it.
I noticed that NIVEA had a new one, so i bought it and i was really excited to try it.
 
I have really dry/sensitive skin, and this product said that it would be perfect.
Unfortunatly i cannot use it anymore, it gave me this really severe rash on my face which to be honest still itches now! :( Not happy. So i wasted £7.00 on this.
If you have sensitive or dry skin like me, i really dont advice buying it. If you want to that is fine, but i could not use it.

I have just placed and order for 2 brands that im soo excited about trying.
Ive heard so much about these brands and i hae just been saving up to purchase some for myself and this is MAC and LIMECRIME.
Limecrime have been around for so long now but i havent had a chance to actually order some. But the other day i was on http://love-makeup.co.uk and noticed that there limecrime lipsticks were reduced to £10 each, so i bought 2 :) Cosmopop and Chinchilla, which are the two shades ive wanted for ages!!!

Cosmopop


Chinchilla

When these arrive i am going to be so hyper and where them all the time!!

The other brand is MAC and i ordered Studio Fix Powder in NC20, and Smoulder Eyeliner :)
I didnt buy too much but i know that this will start off my collection.
I am going to need a bigger vanity i think :P
Off to ikea i go!

Watch out for new videos on my youtube channel http://youtube.com/beautejunkiee

thanks for reading :)

Rimmel Lipstick - Kate Moss Collection.

So i think its been nearly a week since supermodel Kate Moss released her lipstick collection thanks to Rimmel London.
When i saw this advertised i had to have these. All of the colours are amazing, and in my local Boots and Superdrug they are only priced at £5.49 which is a steal!




I love the packaging of this product, just the sleek matte case with kate's signature in red is very basic but alluring, which makes it stand out for buyers. plus its by a celebraty who wouldnt buy it, right?

The pigmentation of these lipsticks are very high quality, just with soe swipe it is very opaque and if you are using for example 'No 4,' This is a very deep plum, i like colours like this very dramatic indeed, i would swatch these in store with the testers first incase they are too bold for you. But this lipstick is good for halloween which is coming up, (look out for a tutorial using this lipstick)

Rimmel says:  A true chic treat. Unique, sexy and unconventional, just like Kate.

This lipstick contains 'black diamonds' which brings incredible new levels of light reflective elements. Creating gorgeous, hypnotizing tones that make you look, then look again : )

Its been 10 years since Kate Moss has been partners with Rimmel London, this is to symbolise her success within the years.

well done kate. excellent product.
