Kiko Haul


Hey hey!
Thought I'd share a few things purchased from my recent trip to Kiko, I only bought to items because i had to show some form of self restraint! First I picked up a velvet mat lipstick in 610 which is described as a 'rosey pink'. 
The struggle is so real when picking out a lipstick at Kiko, they have so many beautiful colours and finishes to choose from but in the end I knew I was in need of an everyday shade, so I limited myself to the pinky-browns. 610 velvet matt is a beautiful (hate to say it, but you all know what i mean) Kylie Jenner shade, a subtle 90's pinky brown on the lips. As this lipstick was described as a velvet mat, i was expecting a more bold matte finish, the lipstick is actually more sheer then expected. However I would still class it as a matt, just with a slight moisturising sheen, Which to be fair makes it awesome to mix with a liquid lipstick to tone it down!
I also picked up the gel liner from Kiko, I have to say I am a little bummed out about this product. Yes, it is a super pigmented black gel liner and yes it lasts a long time, but unfortunately I find the consistency of this product far to liquid-y which makes application difficult. Also for some reason my eyes were STREAMING with this product to the point where literally all my makeup had ran off my face, which is pretty weak.

Anyway I hope you all are having an amazing week! Let me know what you've been loving!

Ebay Haul// Matte liquid lips & eyelashes!


 
Hey homeys!
Thought I would share with you the pieces i picked up from eBay 't'other day! Firstly i needed to stock up on lashes so I bought the primalash demi wispies which are a dupe for the Ardel wispies but they are such a bargain! They are 5 for £3.99! 
I also had been browsing the Youtube when I discovered the eBay 99 dollar liquid lipsticks! Technically they were £2.99 in the UK but still a steal! I picked up shades 22, 33 and 20. 22 and 33 I ABSOLUTELY bladdy' love! they are such rich deep shades perfect for a night out! and I also picked up the shade 20 for more of a daytime shade, which unfortunately was not what I expected and turned out to be more of bright pink shade rather then a mauve-y, purple nude (think i should of retrospectively picked up shade18)!
The liquid lipsticks are beautiful *if* you layer up lip balm before you apply, they will last all day and be matte, beautiful and amazing! However if you skip the lip balm shade they dry your lips out so bad, and just basically flake off.overall these aren't the greatest liquid lipsticks but they are amazing for the price and the shade range is phenomenal!
