EyesLipsFace All Over Color Sticks Review

£1.50
Left to right: Pink Lemonade, Persimmon, Lilac Petal, Spotlight

EyesLipsFace say: 3 in 1 color for your eyes, lips, and or face! Get the color that illuminates for a healthy glow, and instantly soothes and conditions the skin for fresh and natural color all day long.

I say: I really like these! Gorgeous colours, shimmery and does slightly illuminate. Pink Lemonade and Spotlight are my favourite because Pink Lemonade is a perfect blush colour and Spotlight is really good for a highlighter. As for trying on my lips and eyes: I've dabbed some on my lips and this looks nice but haven't tried on my eyes, only as a highlight.

People have complained about the amount of product you get, their bad for oily skin and they cause breakouts.
I personally don't agree this these because I expected the amount of product as I've already had a stick like these - The product does not go all the way down!
I have oily skin and I don't find them to be greasy at all.
I haven't had any breakouts with these.

Any cons?: The company say these sticks 'sooth and condition' - I do not agree. I don't find them creamy so I would suggest warming them up with your finger so they will blend better when applying.

Would I re-purchase? Yes :)

Next Boots

My boots arrived today! Next said 4-5 working days and they arrived in 2 days! It was a really nice surprise as I wasn't expecting them. They were £35 which for me, is a little expensive but most of the shoes I own are from Primark so I deserve to splash out on at least one pair!
Inside is lined with cushion and they are extremely comfy. I've tried them on with a number of outfits and they look amazing with everything. I actually think its love.

Look so much better than in the photo!


Mentioned these boots in a few posts now: me wanting to get them, me ordering them and now me having them lol

Newlook Haul


I really like the pattern on this. Looks better when you zoom in.




I love this top because the back of it is see through lace (Looks white because on manikin). This will show all of my back without looking tarty.



& finally some tights.

Planning on wearing the long top, tights and black suede ankle boots. I'll try and take pictures on my rubbish camera phone (Still haven't got a camera yet! I'm hoping February)

I'll do another post when they and the boots arrive to show you what they look like on etc...

Ramblings...

I've ordered the boots! (See post below). I'm slightly peeved though because to order from Next, you have to be 18 or older. I can have sex and get pregnant, yet I can not order online? erm ok. All the other sites I have bought off of do not have that age requirement. I lied about my age though, I want the boots so badly! lol. It doesn't matter anyway, the age requirement is there so Next don't get in trouble (Normally with angry parents when their daughters have bought too much! haha) and they can say 'Well it is in the terms and conditions'. I also have my dads permission, so what can they do? NOTHING.

Got work experience to think about, and now I am having Careers lessons to help me decide which Uni's to go too, its so scary! I think I want to do something along the lines of Advertising/Media but that's all I know. I wish I knew exactly what I wanted to do so I can have a clear path to go down. This also sounds stupid, but I can't go to a Uni on my own, I just can't. I can't even get a part time job because I'm so shy and nervous! I just want to know someone when going 'up a level in life' lol.

My birthday on the 20th! Wooo. On the 22nd me and 17 friends are going Pizza Hut and Bowling lol, simple and fun + were not old enough to go out on the town!

If you have read this, I appreciate it!

Roll on Friday!

Can not wait till Friday! That's when I get my money and I have already added a top, jumper and tights to my Newlook basket ready to buy. I have also added a pair of black suede ankle boots to my Next basket. They are slouchy and exactly what I've been looking for! I was going to get brown or grey but I think black look better when wearing black tights or leggings. They are £35 which for me, is a bit pricey, but since I have been buying cheap Primark shoes (I love my £1.96 shoes though!) I think I can allow myself to buy one pair of expensive shoes!
Here is a picture of them:

EyesLipsFace Haul

The shipping was very fast, arrived in two days :)

Before this haul, I had two make-up brushes: an eyelash/brow comb and an old blush brush which I used everything for so I was in need of a few brushes:

Complexion Brush £3.50

Blush Brush £3.50

Eye shadow C Brush £3.50

^ These are all extremely soft and am looking at ordering more.

Eyelash & Brow Wand £1.50

Mechanical Eyelash Curler £1.50

^ These seem pretty good so far.

All Over Color Stick in Pink Lemonade £1.50


All Over Color Stick in Persimmon £1.50

All Over Color Stick in Lilac Petal £1.50


All Over Color Stick in Spotlight £1.50

^ I've had a stick like these before. So far I really like them, the only problem is, their not very creamy (The stick I've already got (From a magazine lol) is very creamy) so I would suggest warming these up on your finger before applying.

Mini Make-up Collection FREE as I spent over £15.

^ The eyeshadows are sooo soft! & the blush is just gorgeous, like a coral with subtle shimmer. Does anyone know if this blush is sold separately? Like, is a shade from the mineral blushes, or is it the same blush from the duo? Because I want to buy it in full.

Full reviews of products coming soon.

I've been wanting to order so much of their products for a while now but when ordering, I just didn't want anything. I have all the make-up I need.

My birthday is next Wednesday so my sister took me into Superdrug the other day so I can pick out any make-up products I wanted - There was nothing I wanted! I'm quite pleased with myself lol
