The Perfect Eyeliner...

Hi everyone!

It's been a while - I am back with lots of exciting stuff to share with you. I recently made a trip to Malaysia and I have to say I spent lots of happy hours browsing, swatching and grabbing Asian make-up products! One of my favourite purchases has to be this -



Koji's Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner in Deep Black





*LOVE*... this is an amazing product - it is super jet black, smudge proof and water resistant. This has a quick dry formula and it's perfect if you have oily lids as it lasts all day!
I love the fine tip on the brush, it gives an exact, definite and even stroke when lining the eyes, it makes applying liquid liner a breeze whether you're going for a thin or thick look.

I have also picked up Dolly Wink's pencil eyeliner and it has been my go-to eye pencil for lining my waterline. I love how deep the black is and this stuff does not budge! Being smudge proof it lasts all day!

The packaging is super pretty - so girly! 



These products together create a great finish to any look.




Looks like I will have to do an online buy for backups of these now that I've fallen in love!

I'd love to hear what your favourite eyeliners are!

Primer...


Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch




I have been using this primer over the past few months and I have to say - It is amazing! This little jar does the job like no other. It has the smoothest texture that simply glides onto the skin, filling in the pores and smoothing the appearance of fine lines. This gives your skin the perfect canvas before foundation application for an absolutely flawless finish. 

This is great at keeping my oiliness at bay which means longer lasting foundation!!! 
I have been through a bunch of primers that haven’t given me what my skin/make-up needs so this one’s definitely a keeper for me! 

I have to admit, I was slightly disappointed at the size of the jar. All I was getting was a mere 15ml of product for £25?! I’ve been using this everyday over the last few months and I’m not even halfway through the jar so I can confidently say that it has been worth every penny.








Overall a brilliant product that is on my re-purchase list!

Nude Lips...

Lately I've been loving Estee Lauder's Pure Colour Long Lasting Lipstick in Pinkberry. 
This brand is not one that I would usually go for but I decided to give it a try and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised! I have been wearing this pinkish nude since the day I got it! 




Pinkberry is such a pretty shade, it's one of those that would look great on any skin-tone. I love the creamy and oh-so luscious texture! 




There is a very delicate fruity smell to this which is not too over-powering. I love that this keeps my lips moisturised, it almost feels as though I have lip balm on! 



Pinkberry on my lips.
