Constance Carroll | Shimmer Glimmer Shimmering Powder

Hello everyone! Just wanted to begin this post by apologising; I've been a bad blogger. Over the last couple of weeks I lost my blogging mojo and just let it slip. But I'm back! With a quick review of these Shimmer Glimmer powders from Constance Carroll:



Constance Carroll Shimmer Glimmer in Nude Shimmer & Pink Shimmer: 95p each available here 

I picked these up in my local Watt Brothers for 99p each, but you can find them online for as cheap as 95p. Truthfully, I had never heard of Constance Carroll before, but these Shimmer Glimmer powders looked lovely. And for 99p who can complain? 

I bought the shades Nude Shimmer and Pink Shimmer, although there are another 3/4 colours. Nude Shimmer is my favourite of the two. It has three semi-matte shades and one more shimmery gold strip. It creates such a natural highlight and can even be used all over the face if you like a shimmery (but not too glittery) look. Pink Shimmer is definitely a blush on me, but those with darker skins could use it as a highlight. You could even use the two darker strips as a blush and the lighter two as a highlight, they really are multi purpose products.

If I was an MUA I would snap up all the shades of these and depot them into a palette! They have such good pigmentation considering they only cost me 99p I'm very pleased. Have you ever tried any Constance Carroll products?

Rimmel London Haul

Hello everyone! Firstly, apologies for not posting for the last week or so, being back at Uni has meant I havent had a lot of time to sit down and relax, never mind blogging!

I have some new offerings from Rimmel to show you, two of the new Kate Moss matte lipsticks and a Scandal Eyes Kohl eyeliner. Officially, these don't go on sale until the 6th of October, but my local Superdrug already have them on the shelves, hoorah!


111 Kiss Of Life, 101

Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl in Nude
I've been excited about these releases from Rimmel for ages now, and I wasn't dissapointed. I'm already a fan of the Kate Moss lipsticks, so picked up two shades, 111 Kiss Of Life, a bright red that is bang in the middle of reds, neither blue or orange based so (theoretically!) should suit everyone, and 101, a mid toned light pink thats just lovely. Its not bubblegum or baby pink, it has almost a nudeyness to it. They retail at £5.99 each.

I also got one of the brand new Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohls in the shade Nude, which was £3.99. This is really exciting, as nude liners are few and far between on the high street, but are really popular within the beauty community. Its great for putting in the waterline to open up the eye, and I'm so glad I got it!

I seriously suggest you go check out the new ranges from Rimmel, I'm really impressed. The brand as a whole just seem to keep bringing out amazing products this year! Bye for now! xx
