Quick Review: Sonia Kashuk Brushes..

Contour Brush

I was contemplating on getting the MAC 138 brush for contouring but priced at a hefty £35 (I think) I thought I'd pass on it and search around to see if I could find anything else at a reasonable price. Thats when I came across the Sonia Kashuk brushes off Space NK and priced at £5.50 I couldn't pass on it.

So when they came I was mega excited to try them out, the contour brush is small..but absolutely perfect for creating those "chiseled cheekbone"s as it fit right underneath the cheekbone, I'd definately recommend this and for £5.50 it's a bargain!

Eyeliner Brush

The bristles on this are fairly long, longer than your normal eyeliner brush and it's got a flat end, another thumbs up for this brush.

Synthetic Flat Top Brush

 

A brush that can be used for different purposes like blush/creme blush and foundation.

I've only ever applied my blush with it and must say it applies just the right amount to the apple of my cheeks and blends so easily and smoothly, the hairs on this brush is so soft. Unfortunately I think it's sold out online now.

Hope this quick review helped :)

An awaiting haul...

 Hey guys so here's some stuff that I've got in the past month (abit late right?)

Sonia Kashuk Brushes:

I received these today after ordering them off Space Nk when I noticed a huge reduction in the sale section..I haven't tried these out yet but will definately let you know what I think of them. I got..contour brush (top) eyeliner brush and a flat top brush which I s'pose you can use for anything, I don't know what I'll use this for yet.

I received the MAC bits ages ago but went for Angel Lipstick and underage lipglass.

I never owned Angel but it seemed a very popular lippie, it's very similiar to another MAC lipstick I own..I think it's Snob, not sure though.

I haven't really worn Underage, has anyone got a nice combo with this gloss + another lippie? Leave a comment if so :)

And last we have Benefits Powderazzi, I received this way back In Dec from ASOS sale, the colour I use the most is the top one to contour..I have no idea what colour it is? I've only worn Coralista once and found nothing on my cheeks by the end of the day..I'll have another bash at wearing this another time.

And thats it from me :)

I need to start pulling my finger out abit more on my blog and stop being so lazy..I promise, I'll do reviews, OOTD etc soon xx

4. MAC 138 brush
5. Chanel rouge allure laque - MING

Review: Dior Forever Foundation

Product: 4 out of 5
Packaging: 4 out of 5
Quality: 5 out of 5
Overall: 5 out of 5
Where to purchase? Debenhams, Boots, Dior counters
Price: £26


What they say:
Inspired by nano-technologies, Diorskin Forever takes foundation to the extreme with an innovative, no-transfer, waterproof formula that lasts – even in extreme conditions. The patented Nano-Stretch Network™ creates a micro-aerated, invisible mesh for perfect color and finish, while Hydra-Gel System™ regulates moisture for optimal comfort. Keeps skin flawless and radiant hour after hour.

What I say:
I love it! I decided to buy it because I love the diorskin nude but it was crap staying power with my oily t-zone...ohh and that it also had 10% off on debenhams. I've actually been wearing it everytime I do my makeup because it goes on so smooth and literally looks flawless with my MAC skinfinish sweeped over :)

Does it keep my skin flawless and radiant hour after hour? Actually it does but I do have to touch up after about 4hrs at work on the t-zone, strangely I don't have this problem though when Im on a night out..strange!

This is one of my fave foundations, def overtook revlon colorstay and shall keep purchasing this as I just love the finish and how it makes my skin look..flawless! I'd recommend it to anyone.

Oh forgot to say, it's a very light liquid but gives a medium coverage. Hope this helped.
