Clean Brushes

Hello Biuties!!
Last night at 1am I couldn't sleep and was sooo bored!
So I decided to clean all of my brushes (even the ones which didn't need it) as well as my brush holder.
And while I was at it I cleaned the makeup station.
That got me real tired and after all the cleaning I finally manage to get some ZZZ

AHH clean brushes...
I don't even want to use them :( and they smell so nice! And I need to find something to bring back white brushes to their former glory!
Any suggestion??

Music Monday!

Hello Biuties!
I had almost forgotten about the music Monday but here it is!
One of my absolute favorite artist in the whole world!
Tracy Chapman
She is absolutely amazing and before I die I have to see her perform!
I have every single album of hers and her songs and lyrics are beautiful, simple and mesmerizing. Those songs have stood the test of time in my eyes and even her first album is as good as the last one and I'm happy that through time she hasn't changed at all as an artist.

Enjoy!

NYX on sale!!

Hello Biuties!
On this fab Monday I woke up, checked my emails and saw a certain comment on my latest video that had me all excited and very very veryyy happy!
ILikeItRandom (hello darling!) from youtube wrote:
"there's a nyx sale going on...16 jumbo pencils for 9 dollars..:) i just put in my order."
Yeah now you understand my excitement!The NYX website is having a major sale, selling bundle of products at a ridiculous +80% off...
I was on there, filled out my cart then realized they only ship to the US...
boohooo NYX! Don't to that to me! giving hope and then shatter all those dreams in a matter of seconds!
I am pissed but it definitely is a news worth sharing as they have lipsticks bundles, eyeshadows, pigments, jumbo eyeshadow pencils and more and its definitely worth a look.
So for my US ladies, take advantage and for the rest of US let us watch in disgust or call up some long lost relative who happens to live there to pick some up for for you... *sight*
Hurry though as they only have 1000 available stock of each bundle.
And lastly I do accept generous gifts :) lol

Have a happy Monday!!

MakeUp Artist haul! [Pic heavy!!]

Hello Biuties!!
As I said this morning getting some MUA products was on my to do list today and here's what I got.
Everything is really £1! I was skeptical at first but the eyeshadows kind of stole my heart...
[Click the pictures to have a better look!]
I got 10 items, wanted to get at least one product of each type but the blushes, face powders & glittery eyeliners weren't really interesting to me.
These are really beautiful! Very pretty colors specially the dark green (Shade 14) which is my absolute favorite. I don't remember how many shades there are but I would guess around 20. The colors are also quite dark (though there are a few brights (4-5).
Unfortunately when I got to my superdrug some eyeshadow weren't available so if you want to get a hold of the browns/greys and blacks get there early! A lot of the eyeshadows have a beautiful pearl finish but there are also some matte colors as well which I didn't find that pigmented to be honest and they were quite chalky too.
Overall I quite like them even if I find them a bit crumbly. They are definitely a good value for money.
This lipgloss reminded me soo much of the NARS orgasm illuminator that I had to pick it up. It has very beautiful gold sparkles however it looks better in the tube than on!
The lipstick is sooo beautiful, the consistency reminds me a lot of NYX lipsticks and for £1 I might go and pick up another one!
The red lipstick is ok, nothing special but it does smell really good!
Nothing much to say about the eyeliner, so far it looks a bit too liquid so I'll have to apply it to test it. What I can say about it is that it stains like mad! I swatched it and as soon as I took a picture wiped it off and now I have this blue mysterious line on the back of hand impossible to remove...
The nail varnish is blah, it streaks like crazy! You need 3-4 coats for it to be even.. too much effort for me and it takes ages to dry! I just bought it to test it but yeah I won't be buying any other shade form the brand.
I really really like this eye dust, its well pigmented and very fine. I think there are 6-8 shades available, again on the darker side but I still think for £1 they are good.
Overall I think that this line is worth investigating. I'm happy with what I bought specially with the eyeshadows and the lipstick.
I will definitely go and get some for and for £1 you can't really go wrong!
Keep in my that this is just my first impression review, it might change as I play more with everything!
If you can go and check out the brand at superdrugs I'm sure you'll leave with at least something!
Stay biutiful!
