Recent Beauty Purchases | leeannpatricia

Its finally October and its getting a lil chilly. I love that I can wear a fluffy jumper around town and not be cold but I can't wait for the nights in watching films and drinking hot chocolate to stay warm!

So its a new month and as its me I always buy something new for every month (a bad habit i guess)  So here's my first purchases of the month!

Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation

Now I've been needing a new cheap foundation to wear on my lazy days and this foundation is perfect for only £6.99 from Superdrug. Now I'm not a 100% sure what it will be like but I've heard good things for a good friend of mine that used this foundation a lot! I got the lightest colour which is 010 Light Porcelain, I got this colour as I'm pale anyway but as winter is getting closer and closer I will be looking like a snowman in no time, so this was a perfect match. When trying the test out in the shop it seemed like a very smooth and easy to blend consistency but if you want to hear a review then let me know and I'll be on it!

Collection 2000 Lasting Pefection Concealer

Now if your obsessed with makeup like I am, you've probably heard the hype about this little beauty. This is the Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer, and it's amazing. I've had this concealer before and I loved it, however it was a little pricey for the smallest product and the colour was a little bit off for my skin tone, but I learned to live with it and blend it perfectly and honestly it was amazing for covering them beautiful spots we all get sometimes. Now when I first bought this product last year it was at least £5 but I got it from SuperDrug for £3.99, as it was on offer! I defiantly recommend you all go out and get this bad boy if you haven't got it already!

Eylure Pre-Glued Lashes

These eyelashes are absolutely beautiful and as soon as I saw them I had to get them! They are pre-glued which I dislike but you can pick the pre-glue of and use normal eyelash glue (which is what I do) They are super natural, wispy and i'm 100% in love with these! The lashes are from SuperDrug and were on offer for £3.56!

If you have any questions feel free to contact me, or if you would like me to do a review on any of these products let me know!

Arabian Nights Sleek Palette | leeannpatricia

As some of you may know from my recent blogposts, I have treated myself to the Limited Edition Sleek Palette, called Arabian Nights which I'm absolutely in love with!

The colours are so perfect for night time events and are so pigmented! I completely fell in love with the colours as soon as I saw this palette.

Now personally I wouldn't use these colours for everyday use apart from the two lighter ones. I find this palette is very glam, but sometimes you may need to re-apply colour when blending due to the amount of glitter. Also you may find that fall outs when using glittery eye-shadow will be more noticeable, so after you've finished your look make sure you clean up afterwards.

Heres a few swatches so show you some colours, I am also aware that the photo quality is poor but I didn't bring my better camera around my boyfriends house when I was meant to be taking pictures for this blog post.

I absolutely love that sleek comes up with so many creative names for each colour they have! I think its such a lovely touch to a product! My favourite colours have to be Scheherazade's tale, Gold Souk, Black magic and 1001 nights! However all the other colours are as beautiful too! So I'd defiantly recommend buying this product while its still available! Add it too your collection because it's defiantly worth it!

You can buy this palette from superdrug for £7.99!

   

Now I thought it would be a good idea so show something I created with this palette earlier!

This look is super easy, I used Gold souk all over the lid and then blended in sultans garden and hocus pocus, i felt like it left a very autumn vibe and brought some warmth to the eye, I'd recommened blending some purple into the crease to warm things up a little bit more, if you wanted too! 

Feel free to ask more questions about this look and go re-create it!
