L'Oreal Miss Manga Punky



Its a very rare occasion for me to be trying a new mascara  after I discovered Max Factors false lash effect I vowed to not touch any other brand. But as I have  been so pleasantly surprised by L'Oreal in every way I thought why not try this too.  I'd heard great reviews about the miss Manga original mascara so I thought why not go for the punky as its a little more intense rock n roll vibe which is a nice change compared to my usual volumised fanned out style that I'm so used to. This mascara makes for a really great statement as your lashes are lengthened full on black and spiky. The great finish is achieved by having a perfect long lasting formula and fantastic brush. The brush is quite large and holds alot of the product which is great as some it ensures that the product is transferred onto very lash. I have found this works best with my winged eyeliner looks as the two really complement each other and they're both very punk rock styles of make up so together they go so well.
So if your looking for a mascara that's a little bit different I'd definitely recommend this product its a seriously loud and proud mascara

Noisy May Dress Styled

In love does not describe how I feel about this dress I am without a doubt purchasing this when I'm paid, but for now I'll just lust from afar. You may have seen this dress yesterday in my ASOS wishlist post and theres a few reasons I love this dress so much firstly the print is so gorgeous and ditsy it would flatter anyone. Secondly the print is of arrows and I am a massive fan of the arrow t.v show hence love for arrows. Next the dress would be so easy to wear and can be dressed up or down all year round. Finally its a smock dress who doesn't love a smock dress!
Okay so dress rant over I would personally wear this amazing specimen with a biker jacket as biker jackets go with everything and can be worn up or down.next to add a 70's edge a fringed bag that's really loose and boho chic. Then a gorgeous pair of western style boots which I feel complement the dress really well and of course a fedora just because I cant accessorize without one now. To finish some lovely simple but effective jewellery a black nail varnish and a nice pinky nude on the lips.
Hope uou enjoy and I'll see you all next time I find something else to lust over. ✌

Bourjois Lip Velvet 2 New Shades


















So by now you can all see I've gone from no lipstick to I want every lipstick, I know it's bad guys but oh well. I'd seen some good reviews about this product and so I thought I'd give them a go. The two colours I purchased are new shades just added to the collection Don't Pink Of It is the lightest pinky nude and So Hap'ink which is a lovely pink. 
When I first saw these in the store I thought they look good but then taking a look at the applicator I thought it was a lipgloss at which point I put them straight back. Upon closer inspection I found that they're a long lasting lipstick that dry matt and so I thought why not give them a try.
"Don't pink of it" my favourite of the two its a gorgeous pink nude with brown undertones, as I say it dries matt and looks amazing with all of my dark smokey eye looks. I think this is the perfect day to day lipstick as its such a lovely natural looking shade.
So Hap'ink is also a lovely shade, I'd say it has some red undertones within the pink which is really gorgeous particularly with a nice thick winged eyeliner. This shade is also a lovely day to day lipstick as its still quite subtle.
The best thing about this product is that the staying power is utter perfection as it's a long lasting lipstick when you apply the lipstick its wet but then it dries to a matt finish and stays that was most of the day. I would usually top up after around four hours just to give the colour more of a lift.
Definitely go and check these out guys they're fab and  a staple for any make up bag.

Kill Star Styled

I thought I'd show you guys two pieces from Kill star's new collection and how I would style them. Kill star are a fantastic brand who've been around for a few years now, they bring together witchy cult goth styles to put out some gorgeous pieces. If you have a wonder around the internet you'll see alot of new brands and older brands mimicking Kill star's gorgeous designs but they were the first and so therefore the best.


Of course here the main feature is the dress, its just amazing. The attention to detail is perfection its a all over lace with the skeleton print overlayed on top of the lace. It's a really great statement piece for day or night. I chose to style it as more a day time outfit with a midi length cardigan and some platform chelsea boots I think it creates a flawless look. Then I added a fedora to add a little witchy vibe and a gorgeous studded bag and why not some black lipstick.

This  next look is also more casual, Kill star are doing loads of different slogan tops very similar to this at the moment. The shape looks great on and is flattering to any figure. As the top has quite a wide neck I wanted to take advantage of that and I put this bralet underneath that has a halterneck strap as I think it would look great showing through underneath the top. I love leather look leggings so I put them together with the top then I used these gorgeous lace up platform boots to add some goth chic. Speaking of chic this lovely structured shopper bag is perfect for that reason. Then some gorgeous cat eye sunglasses and a perfect red lipstick.

MUA Matte Lipstick Lilac Belle


 


MUA Matte Lipstick Lilac Belle
This lipstick is well and truely a bargain so I just had to tell you guys about it. I've used quite a few mua products in the past and have not been disappointed so as i'm on a lipstick hunt I thought why not give this a go (also its purple so hell yeah). 
Firstly the packaging is gorgeous lovely and simple white with a flash of the lipstick colour at the bottom which I just love it really stands out from the rest of my lipstick collection aswell because of this. 
The pigmentation aswell is surprisingly good or £1 i gernerally apply 2-3 coats to get it pretty vibrant but its a really lovely pale purple with lots of pink undertones perfect for any look really.
Lastly the stayin power also really suprised me as it really does take alot of bashing and its still there. I'd say after around 2 hours your looking to top up but even so there's definitely still a vivid pink there too.
Overall I urge you to go and pick one up for only a quid this product is just fab.
