April 2012 Favourites!

Once again, I'm a few days late in posting up my April favourites. But late then never i guess? Anyways here's what I've been loving this April!

I didn't include any nail polish this month, I don't no why. I might do a separate post for that?

This month my favourites are:

• NYC City Curls Curling Mascara
• Miss Sporty XX Volume Mascara 
• Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Eternal Gold
• Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Fair
• NYC Smooth Skin Pressed Face Powder in Naturally Beige 
• Collection Cream Puff Lip Cream in Fairy Cake & Cotton Candy 

My two most favourite mascara's this month! I seriously don't understand why makeup brands charge the price they do for mascara when you can get things like this for a fraction of the price! NYC's City Curls gives my lashes a definite curl and added volume. Whereas Miss Sporty's XX Volume Mascara, gives well... Volume obviously! It adds plenty of volume and length to my lashes. I like the length of my lashes naturally, but they lack volume and curl. These mascara's solve these problems easy!

I was amazed how well this product stayed on my eyes! And was fairly easy to remove as well, I loved the pigmentation and it definitely made my green eyes pop. I usually dust a Matt eyeshadow all over my eye, from the lid to my brows, like a base. Then use the tiniest amount of this and it goes a long way. I love this product and think I'll get Eternal Sliver next time in Superdrug too!

I've finally found my favourite face powder! Ever! I usually avoid wearing foundation as it just doesn't look good once I've finish applying, with foundation, Primer, Concealer, Powder all that good stuff. I came to the conclusion that it was my face powder. I love this powder! It's a massive improvement from my MUA one, which was nice to wear on its own with primer, but too heavy and pigmented for over foundation. I would highly recommend this if you want a good, budget powder to set your foundation, and liquid makeup in general.

I love Matt lips! Sometimes i get a bit lazy when reapplying products like lipstick or lipgloss. These solve all my problems, they last ages. And I mean ages! I can easily get at least 4-5 hours out of these, they don't fade when you drink, but fade slightly once you eat something. For the price their amazing, easily my favourite lip products of the moment. I've got them in Cotton Candy and Fairy Cake, I've already done a review of Fairy Cake and it should be over there -------------->

For swatches, reviews, post requests or more details about the products just comment below, I don't bite ;)

Haul - Superdrug & Boots

Okay, so I'm going to get right into it as the post is very *picture heavy*

Only 5 things but still a haul :)

First thing i got was the NYC Smooth Skin pressed face powder.

Shade "Naturally Beige"

I haven't been getting on very well with my current face powder, the MUA one. I'm not too sure if the formula has been changed or something it just doesn't look good with foundation underneath, and totally changes the colour of my foundation and makes my face makeup look really cakey. Even though I've repurchased the MUA one 3 times, I thought I'd give this a go. 

In a recent blog post I reviewed the Collection Cream Puff Lip Cream in Fairy Cake. I thought I'd get another shade from the range, this one in Cotton Candy, as i really liked Fairy Cake. 

NYC City Curls Curling Mascara

Shade Carbon (Black) 

I really like the wand on this mascara! I've heard good & bad things about the NYC mascaras, but for the few pound i paid for this I thought I'd give it a shot anyway. 

 

 

 Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

 

 

 

I've heard some amazing things about this concealer! I read on blogger somewhere that it was even compared to mac. I really can't wait to review this concealer , and see if it really is a High Street Gem! In shade "Fair 1"

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24HR Cream Gel Shadow

Shade Eternal Gold

Saved the best till last!;)
I think I may be a bit slow on the whole "Color Tattoo" thing. But I really wanted to try one of these out, and for the price you get a more then generous amount and there so pigmented when swatched they will last ages!

Thanks for Reading! :)xxx
