Review + Swatches : Watts Up , Benefit

Hi dollss :) i recently got a benefit watts up facial highlighter and i thought id share it with you as i am really excited ! So this product claims that it is switch on wow and will leave you with a luminous sheen . I love the colour of the highlighter its a golden champagne colour and the packaging is super cute . It also comes with a applicator built in on the other end so its super handy for the handbag or people on the go :) . You apply this highlighter on top of your make up or you can use it alone for a bit of radiance , the texture of this is really creamy and it blends just perfect which i love . Overall id give the watts up a  10/10 and would recommend this to anyone , its perfect for new years party season coming up to give you a bit of luminosity and glow .







So what do you think ? Whats your favourite benefit product ?

Kim Kardashian Inspired Make Up Look

Hii dolls first of i hope you all had a very merry christmas ! I certainly did i stuffed my face with thorntons chocs , christmas dinner that was heaped on the plate and enjoyed a beaut trifle . I obviously did not take note of the saying " A moment on the the lips is a lifetime on the hips " lol . Moving on swiftly you might not know but i am a big fan of Kim Kardashian :) she's beaut so when i saw this look i had to re create it . Its a bold red / dark red lip and a winged eye with white running through it , its the make up from her christmas card i think she looks gorgeous and i love what she's wearing its  a change from her usual style . So here are the pictures sorry for the bad quality camera was playing up so had to take them on my mac :/ .














So what do you think ?

Friday Christmas Primark Haul and £6 Heels !!!

Hi my lovelies well i went to Leeds today and had a little spend , a tiny one ! I got some really cute tops from primark and they were an absolute bargain ! I also went to boots and got me some bourgjois healthy mix foundation and their new volume glamour max mascara . I thought id get the healthy mix foundation because I've heard a lot  of good reviews of it and its a reasonable price i don't really tend to wear drugstore foundations because i find it so hard to get a perfect match so I've always used nars , mac , benefit , Chanel but I'm going to try this one out and hopefully it might be the one :) . I also picked up a sleek au naturel pallet I'm a bit slow in bring this but i have it in my clutches now and I'm sure this will be a favourite of mine as i have the original pallet from sleek that i adore . I love how the colours are so pigmented , plus i love the price hehe . Just to bring my rant to an end il finish with the shoes :):) on Tuesday after work i walked past a shop that looked like it was closing down , anywhoo in the window were a bargain pair of shoes £6 !! I found two pairs that i liked i grabbed them and ran aha . And my last buy were my shoe boot wedges from new look for an amazing £17.99 ( with student discount ) i spyed these bad boys on someone at work and fell in love . Il leave you with the pictures :) enjoy xx

£6 Primark  Tan and Black

Free Brush ? Yes pleaseeee ...

Hey dolls so a while back i got an email from royal and langnickel asking me to participate in a survey and in return i got a free brush .Needless to say i logged on and completed the survey and to my joy today i had a little parcel and inside was a synthetic smudger C422-S  from their silk pro range FULL SIZE ! I don't know why but i was expecting a cheapo brush but i have to say from the looks of it , it looks promising :) Ive heard a lot about this brush company and i am quiet excited to have my first brush from them :)










Anyway can't wait to use this baby maybe for when I'm doing a smokey look to blend everything out excited lol .

Do you own a royal and langnickle brush ? Whats your favourite ?

O.P.I vs W7 Nail Polish Review

Hi guys this is my first post so i thought id do a review ! :) And its on the O.P.I The Thrill of Brazil nail colour and W7's Pillar Box Red colour . Right so first of all the thing you notice about the two are the packaging they are identical , the second is the colour however the O.P.I is slightly a more deeper red . Anyway i applied the W7 polish first and was impressed with the outcome , the consistency is good and it has fantastic coverage , it also did not leave any streaks  and had a great brush which i found very impressive as most cheap nail polish brands do not have  . I only applied one coat of the W7 polish as that is all i thought i needed ! Next i tried the O.P.I  nail colour and straight away found that the two polishes were so similar the brush is the same , did not leave streaks and had good coverage . The only differences between the two are the slight colour in O.P.I .  So overall id give these products 10/10 , and if your not willing to pay £10 + for the O.P.I then the W7 nail polish that retails for around £1.50  a great dupe :) . Please feel free to comment , subscribe and share any recommendations for reviews :)  Thanks for reading Mica x
