Go to: Face Moisturiser

Hi dolls,

Simple products have always been my go to skin care products for longer than I can remember. I try different products but  I always go back to Simple. So I used to use these moisturisers when I first started using Simple and then I switched to the day and night cream. I 've been using Avon moisturisers but I just haven't gelled with them.So I went shopping for the day and night cream but something drew me to these ones. And I'm glad I picked them up.Its nice to go back to an old favourite.

I use the Light moisturiser for during the day and the rich one in the evening.

My entire face routine consists of Simple products.I did a post on the products I use here.

Light moisturiser - £3.79

Rich moisturiser - £3.89

What is your go to moisturiser?

If you've followed my blog for a while you would've noticed that I love the supershock duo e/s pencils. I've done posts on the ones I've purchased here, here and here,

They're very creamy and pigmented and last pretty much all day. Although they're eyeshadows I use them as eyeshadow bases and eyeliner.

 

 Lucky Penny                    Gold Vision

 Catalogue price - £6

These are 2 new autumnal metallic shades from Nailwear Pro+

The colour lasts up to 12 days - now I've never worn nail polish for longer than 3 days but if you're one of those people that don't like to change you're nail polish often this will be a good choice for you. They are also nick-resistant and are fortified with acrylic gel strength which is a plus.

These polishes need 2 coats to be completely opaque.

MUA Pearl eyeshadows

Hey dolls,

Shade 9                          Shade 24

I took a little jaunt into Superdrug and picked up 3 items from MUA (Make up academy). I had the 2 eyeshadows above and a lipgloss. The lipgloss cannot be blogged about because when I opened it the doe foot applicator was missing. I was so bummed cos I really wanted the shade I picked up :(

MUA is very popular mainly due to the fact that most of their products are £1 and the quality isn't terrible. I remember back in the day if you bought eyeshadow for a £1 the quality would be AWFUL. But MUA is the opposite, the pigmentation of the eyesdahows is very good.

The purple shadow which is coming up more blue is apparently a dupe for MACs Stars 'n rockets and the bronze shade is a dupe for MAC's Sable.

Swatches:

Comparison Swatches:

Now I swatched the eyeshdaows to see if there really was a comparison.

L-R: MAC Sable, MUA shade 24, MAC Stars 'n rockets, MUA shade 9

Now I don't think these are that similar at all. Sable and 24 are both pearl bronze shades but 24 is just that little bit more pink. They look the same in pan form but when you swatch them the pink of 24 really comes through.

Stars 'n rockets and 9 are both purple shades with blue iridescence. But stars 'n rockets is more of a pinky purple with light blue iridescence and 9 is more of a deeper purple with heavier blue iridescence.
