Guys
So I got this beautiful Benefit box full of amazing Benefit products. As it was bought in the EU it is cruelty free thanks to the law that was passed in 2013 in not going to get into it here but just google 'EU cosmetics act 2013' or something like that and you'll know what I'm on about. Anyway the box is called 'Do the Hoola. Beyond bronze kit.' It is the cutest thing ever! It is full of Benefits most popular products in travel sizes. I think it retails for about €40 but I got it for €29. It comes with The Hoola powder bronzer, 'Dew the Hoola' bronzer, the iconic Benefit brush, 'They're real!' Mascara, The ultra plush lip gloss in 'Hoola and the 'Benebalm.'

I love this little kit and the packaging is so cute. Included there is a mirror and a little Tips and Tricks guide for the products inside. If you are flying with Airlingus at any stage they sell this kit on the flight which is where I got it at a discount. The products are in travel size and you can do your contouring, bronzing, mascara and lips in just this little case. The lip gloss just makes your lips look so plump and the colour is just a beautiful nude brown.

The Benebalm is a tinted red lip balm which moisturises your lips in a really nice way and is awesome for no make up make up. It hydrates your lips and keeps them fresh all day! Love the fact you don't need lipstick or lip pencil for colour after you put it on. 


The 'Dew the Hoola' bronzer is a matte sheer bronzer which is good for contouring especially if you have a warm skin tone. Blend under the cheek bones, jawline, hairline, widows peak wherever you like to contour. It is a liquid and a little goes along way! 


The classic 'Hoola' bronzer is a nice powder bronzer which can also be used to contour. The brush which is included is great to use with the bronzer. This can also work for pale people if you want to contour but the trick is to use a light hand and blend, blend and a bit more blend. 

Finally the 'They're real!' Mascara is amazing for those long black lashes that every make up fan loves! It is a nice black colour and of used correctly it just gives your lashes such volume! I like to hold the wand horizontally and wiggle it side to sode while moving up on the eyelashes. 

I think this is an amazing kit all round especially if you are travelling and want lots of products but don't have enough space.  Just to make things clear I am not sponsored by Benefit I just really love this kit. I am not sponsored by any make up company/brand everything on this blog is my own opinions and reactions to these make up products. I don't have money to squander on really high end products so there will be budget brands on this blog too especially NYX as you know I love their products as the quality and the prices. 

If you have any product you think I should try or you would like to see featured on here please don't hesitate to leave a comment. Tell your friends about this blog as if love to make it as popular as possible! 

Love you guys!
I'm thinking of doing my skin care routine for my next post just to change things up a little! 
Anyway! Until next time! 

Concealer

Hey people!

So remember before when I was complaining about not having a proper concealer that really worked? Well I got one! You guessed it! It is by NYX. It is the NYX HD concealer in CW 02 Fair. It gives a great coverage especially for bags under your eyes. This is participating good for me as I have such a habit staying up late watching TV! The colour is so natural, the texture is creamy and just glides on, all it needs is a bit of a pat from the beauty blender or whatever brush/sponge you use. I've tried a lot of concealer sand this one is by far the best. Now before you jump to conclusions no I'm not sponsored by NYX. I wish I was! I just love their products and they are affordable and cruelty free.

The packaging is simple. The product does last a long time. It is useable (is that a word?!) for six months. I got it for about €7.50 again really affordable. It is from the same line as the green concealer I did a post on before. I use the two together in cases when there is a red volcano on my face. I have problems with acne around my chin and between my eyebrows. Disgusting I know but this concealer covers it all up.

If I was to only choose one brand to wear it would be NYX. I've never had a problem with their products. The prices are great and the quality is so high. They do so many dupes for very high end products which I will do a blog post on at some stage, in gathering information and products! They even have a dupe for 'Skylie' but more about that again.

Thanks guys!
Claire.
