Rimmel Lycra pro 402 Urban purple

Hi everyone, it's another post about my favourite high street nail polish!!
Urban purple is a plum red shade and has a real purple colour to it in certain lights and I was excited to try it.

I have to be honest with you all, this was one coat!  It is amazingly opaque and I honestly didn't see the need for anymore than one coat as it wasn't sheer in any parts!

It was amazingly glossy too and I love it!

As I've said a million times, these nail polishes are amazing for the price and really last well and I highly recomend them.

Rimmel match perfection blush

Hi everyone, a while ago I was looking through my local shops and this product jumped out at me!

It is the Rimmel match perfection blush and there are darker shades, but being a bit of an English rose I opted for the lightest shade.

It is a 3 tone blush with very very fine shimmer to it but I can't say I notice the shimmer on my cheeks.

It is supposed to adapt to your skintone and suit everyone because of this.

The 3 shades blend together very well and although this is a very powdery blush the pigmentation is fantastic.

The first shade is a nice darker pink shade and is lovely by itself as well as blended.

Then there's a bronzing shade which comes off a bit lighter than it looks and although it wouldn't be ideal for contouring it is a gorgeous shade!

The third shade is a peachy tone and again is a shade I love and the colours for my skintone are really great.

Here are the three swatched in the order reviewed above.

Verdict:  This blush is my new everyday blush.  The shades are lovely alone but when blended together they do create a lovely pinky/red tone blush and it is ideal for lighter skin. 

The pigmentation is amazing and it has fairly good staying power too.

If you are in the market for a new high street blush and want one that offers pigmentation and a very wearable everyday shade then this is for you!

Rimmel Lycra pro Beige babe

Hi everyone, I thought I'd do a quick post as I had a last minute get together on Friday and had to really quickly choose a nail polish and go so I opted for one I haven't worn any more than once that I can remember so I chose Beige babe from the Rimmel Lycra pro range.

This is a nice shade if you are going out on an Autum/Winter evening and I felt it was the last time I would be going for a darker shade this season as I'm so eager to use brighter colours so it was a good chance to try this shade again.

I used two coats as I didn't have too long before I had to go but it is a quite opaque polish so I easily got away with it.

As I have mentioned before this range of polishes are pretty opaque and have good staying power and even though I'm always on the go these don't tend to chip for at least a couple of days and the finished look is normally very glossy and professional looking.

Rimmel pro Coral Romance

Hi everyone, as I have said many times before the Rimmel pro are by far my favourite high street polishes and I love them soooo much!  I was going out this weekend and fancied something a bit brighter as I'm trying to persuade spring to come!  So I opted for one of my most used shades of last year and that was Coral Romance.

This is a red toned coral colour and I adore it.  I tried to photograph it in a few lights for you to give you a better idea of the shade but the below image is fairly true to the shade.

I love how this shade is more red than orange coral as it suits most skintones whereas orangy corals don't tend to suit my more English rose complexion!!

Which are your favourite nail polish shades and what will you be wearing this spring?  Thanks for reading and don't forget to subscribe x

Rimmel wake me up foundation review

Hi everyone, I love trying different foundations and am always excited to try one I never have before and when I walked into Superdrug last week and saw the Rimmel stand I had to buy this foundation.

(Appologies for the lighting, it is sooo dark today!)  The bottle itself is a nice shape and it says it is spf15 which is always a plus.
The bottle has a nice clean pump top and it is very easy to dispense the amount you need.

The foundation itself is a medium to thick consistency and easy to blend out.

It provided good full coverage and there are a few shades to choose from, plus it didn't budge all day, what more do you need!

Verdict:  Oh my goodness!  I have found my new goto foundation!  I love this foundation!  Right from how easy it is to blend, the consistency to the great coverage!  Does it really wake your skin up?  YES!  My skin definitely looked really healthy and glowy and even seemed to shimmer in a good way in certain lights.  If you need a real pick me up for your skin and need good coverage and lasting power the get to the shops now!  I love this product and it has replaced my normal high street foundation now, sooo happy I brought this!
