Review│♥Naked Basic Palette by Urban Decay♥

Hi guys it's Friday! Nearly the weekend! I'm so excited for this review!♥
I have been wanting to try out the Naked palettes for so long now, so I thought to get use to the colours and the shadows I'd treat myself to the Basic palette and I am so glad I did, its amazing and I'm in love!
It retails at £22.00 and it has 6 shadows, one is shimmery, the rest are matte. I have been after some matte shadows for a while as all I have are shimmery, glittery ones. But not anymore!!!!!


This is what the front of the palette looks like. I absolutely love feel of this too! It doesn't feel like plastic at all. It feels smooth and soft, kind of like a fabric feel. But its definitely not like plastic at all.


These are the colours that come in the Basic Palette. As you can it includes: Venus, Foxy, Walk of Shame (W.O.S), Naked 2, Faint and Crave. For me, these colours are absolutely perfect for me. And the colours are so pigmented, as you can see on my hand, and they are so blend able, its so easy to blend the colours together, and they really compliment each other in all the palette, whatever colour you chose to put together.

I first tried out the palette today and used most of the shadows together.
I used 'Foxy' all over my lids. I then put 'Naked 2' in the middle of my lids and 'Faint' on the outer corner. I blended these together. I then put some more 'Faint' on the outer corners and some 'Crave' in the crease. I then put Venus on the inner corner to brighten my eyes. I didn't add any liner, just some mascara and some natural lashes. The lipstick I am using today is 'Rebel' by MAC.

This palette is so worth the money, as just one single shadow form Urban Decay is £14.00. You get six for £22.00, amazing! I am honestly in love with this palette, and in the future I will definitely be buying all the other Naked palettes for sure.

Review│♥M·A·C Rebel Lipstick♥

Yay its Saturday, hope your having a magical weekend!♥
I want to share with you all my thoughts on M·A·C's Rebel that I purchased earlier in the week.
I am in love with this! I never normally wear lipstick and if I do its a very nude colour, so I thought I'd be daring and get a darker colour that I wouldn't really go for and see if I could pull it off.
I brought this from my M·A·C counter in Debenhams, it retailed at £15.00. Some may think this is alot of money but its so worth it! 

It came in this black packaging. I love the packaging that M·A·C provides for thier products and I always keep them to store them in, so when I am finished my lipstick I can stack them and keep them neat and tidy.


I absolutely love the colour of this lipstick. I'm so so in love and it was so worth every penny. It's a very deep purple but with a hint of pink in it. I personally think it looks much darker in the tube compared to when you actually put it on your lips, but the product is buildable. The more product you put on, the more darker it goes. It also has a satin finish so it gives a beautiful shine on the lips. I've also noticed with this lipstick, if you put a slight amount on your lips too, this also acts as a lip tint which I love also. 


The reason why I love this product, other than the colour, is it last so long on my lips! I woke up at 9am today, I put this lipstick on and its 3.30pm and it still is on my lips. Ive had lunch, had drinks and even gave my boyfriend some kisses and it is still as it was when I applied the lipstick this morning and I haven't had to retouch on my lips with the product! I did however, before putting the lipstick on, apply some concealer onto my lips to give the lipstick a bit of hold and after I applied I added some translucent powder over the top to stop it from smudging. This may of been a help for the product to stay on my lips, but I have tried the lipstick another day without applying concealer and powder and it lasts a long period of time.
I honestly cant get enough of this lipstick!

I defiantly recommend this lipstick to you all who want to try something new and dark!
