Benefit | Pretty in the U.S.A palette

Hi Guys!

I have this little beauty to share with you today. I have always loved Benefit blushes and bronzers, so when I noticed this one on their SALE page I had to have it! It is beautiful! These are all the full size products which are priced at £26 each meaning they'd cost £78 if you bought them all but this palette is currently in the sale for £25.79, which is a massive saving and you get a Goof Proof Pencil as well So even if you just need a new Hoola - You'd actually be better off just getting this palette! - Plus I have £5 off if you order through this link - Here :) 

 It contains my number 1 favourite bronzer/contour Hoola. Hoola is a matte bronzer a little goes a long way with this which is why they last forever! I use this daily and it is the only bronzer I have purchased for about 10 years! I find that a lot of other bronzers have shimmer in them - which is no good when contouring, or they are too orange. This bronzer is perfect. It now comes in 4 different shades but in this palette it is just the original Hoola shade. 

Second is the Rockateur rose gold blush. This blush is beautiful, it would suit all skin tones. It doesn't have the strongest of colours so you don't end up looking like a clown and you can build this up but it never looks too much! It gives a lovely natural looking rosy flush on your cheeks. It has a lovely rose gold shimmer through it which gives that natural looking glow meaning you don't necessarily need a highlighter as well. Rockateur has a slightly different formula than other benefit blushers "Rockateur has a specialized formula that works by combining the best features of baked, powder, cream and fluid textures".

Last but definitely not least is Dandelion Twinkle! This is a "superfine highlighting powder" This is a gorgeous natural looking highlighter. Now personally - and I know many will disagree but I think that the highlighting has gone a bit too far in the beauty world, I like this because it looks natural which I personally like I think that with a lot of highlighters now they leave you looking like you have fallen head first into a pot of glitter either that or you look like you have done a ten mile run! Dandelion Twinkle gives the perfect amount of glow to your face without looking like you're from outer space! 

The palette also came with Benefits Goof proof Brow pencil I have used this before and do love it, I am coming to the end of my Anastasia Beverly Hills Pomade, so I am going to start using this again and see if I revert to the Pomade or stick with the Goof Proof Brow pencil!

Mememe Goddess Rocks

Hi Guys, recently I have been trying Mememe's Goddess Rocks. Like all of Mememe's products I think that the packaging is adorable, these bronzing rocks come in a little grey pot which has the Mememe Cherub on top. 

There are two different shades of rocks in the pot, one is a gold colour and the other is more of a rose gold. These rocks are highly pigmented so you only need a very light hand otherwise it can look very over the top, they are also very creamy and easy to apply. I really like the fact that these give a really nice sunkissed glow and aren't too glittery. 

I have been using these as more of a highlighter rather than bronzer. You can also use the 

individual rocks as eye shadow, which I really like as I am obsessed with wearing golds on my eyes at the moment. I am looking forward to using these in the summer when I have a tan as I think that you could use these on quite a natural look to give you a glow.

I bought these rocks when they were on an offer and got the Mememe brush free. these rocks retail at£12.50 but are currently on offer for £10.00! - www.mememecosmetics.co.uk

 

Benefit 10 bronzer/highlighter

Hi Guys!

Today I had a little delivery from Benefit. My sister and I both ordered Benefits 10 bronzer/highlighter. I love this and have been purchasing it for years. So when I had a text from my sister telling me they have been reduced to £11.75 from £23.50 online I couldn't resist!

 I adore this bronzer and have looked for a high street dupe for ages with no luck!

When I received this the first thing I noticed was that the packaging has changed it now has shiny packaging whereas it used to be matte and the lid is attached with a mirror whereas it used to be separate. The lid is also magnetic so it doesn't come open if you want to pop it in your bag.

In the old version there was 12.0g of product whereas their new one has 7.0g and as they still retail at £23.50 you are paying the same price for less product. You do get a mirror in the new version but I don’t think that justifies the price! On the plus side, I only paid £11.75 for this which I think is a complete bargain as they do last for ages!
