The Beauty Cupboard: Sleek Caribbean Collection →
I finally gave into the hype and tried Sleek. The Caribbean collection appealed to me because i’ve never really seen colours like this before, especially not for such a low price and I thought it would be fun to try. I didn’t buy the eyeshadow palette because I despise cheap eyeshadows no matter…
The Beauty Cupboard: Dove Summer Glow Review →
I am the first to admit that I am not very good with fake tan. Because I’m so awful at it, I rarely use it however due to my obsession with The Only Way Is Essex I decided it was time for me to fully embrace my inner Essex girl and become bronzed. Since I’m scarily pale I decided to try a gradual…

The Beauty Cupboard: MAC Prep + Prime transparent finishing powder →
I was going to write this review on Friday and I’m so glad I didn’t now because my opinion of this product has dramatically changed over the weekend!
Lets start with the basics. The powder is 17.50 (sterling) for 9g. Its not massive but you don’t need much and as MAC prices go its actually pretty…
I have some exciting make up reviews coming soon :)
Products such as the new version of Maybelline falsies mascara, loreal true match foundation and in the next month hopefully a MAC powder, lipsticks and the new Urban Decay lush lash system. If there’s anything anyone particularly wants testing feel free to let me know and I’ll see what I can do :)
Product review – double glammy gorgeous lips kit
I LOVE this! I bought it a few weeks ago intending to give it away as a Christmas present but I caved in and opened it for myself (I also opened a mani – pedi set I’d bought for someone but that’s not important!) It comes in cute pink packaging with a double mirror which clips shut, a ‘marvelips’ crayon and the sexy mother pucker plumping lip gloss.
I tried the lip gloss by itself first and really liked it, it’s a pretty nude colour and when you put it on it starts to tingle, it’s a strange but not unpleasant sensation. The gloss is really nice and shiny and it stayed put for quite a while too, I think it did plump my lips too but its hard for me to tell because my lips are already massive (seriously I took some before and after pics to show you guys but I was too embarrassed to post them)
I tried the crayon for the first time yesterday and I’m hooked already. The colour is kind of a rich brownish pink (really wearable) and the white end of the crayon adds a lovely shimmer if you apply it over the colour. I expected it to be matte but it was shiny like a lip gloss as well as gliding on like one and felt really creamy. I hate it when you wear lip gloss and you get that stupid line around your lips or it goes patchy and funny. This however doesn’t do this so it really has made my dreams come true! I seriously cannot recommend this highly enough, buy it, now!
The gloss looks nice over the crayon too but to be honest I really don’t think you need it, they both look so nice on their own. I did however find that when I put the gloss over the pencil it didn’t tingle very much so I wonder if it has to be on bare lips to plump them properly. You can buy both products separately and I think the gloss comes in a range of colours but this is the perfect little Christmas gift set (just buy one for yourself too otherwise you’ll have to do more shopping like i’ve got to this weekend!) Its only £12 which for 2 lip glosses normally £8.25 each and quite a big double mirror is really quite a bargain. I bought mine from Boots in the 3 for 2 offer but asos stocks it too and I think theres an official Soap and Glory website (i’ll post some links when I submit this post)
So go and get those gorgeous soft plump lips everyone dreams of!
