Don't hate us because we're beautiful...

Having been a student for the past five years, I have had to live life on a budget. However, make-up is something that I cannot live without and I am always trying new products.

As I cannot splurge too often, I generally buy products from affordable labels within highstreet stores, making the reviews accessible to the masses.

Within this blog, I will share with you my beauty tips and disasters, and award a rating for the products used. From here, you can make up your own mind whether or not the product is worth purchasing or avoiding...

Feel free to comment with your own tips, stories and/or recommendations. I look forward to hearing from you!

Pump it and plump it!

Mascara, mascara, mascara!

How difficult is it to find a mascara that lengthens your lashes, makes them look thicker and doesn't clump them together so that you end up looking like you have spider eyes?

Although that question was rhetorical, I will answer it with very!

However, I have been lucky enough to stumble upon a crackin' mascara which I loved so much that I bought the same one again once I'd ran out (something I never do as I always tend to try different mascaras in the hope that one day I shall seek the magic wand!).  I love this mascara that much that I don't even wear false eyelashes that often anymore!

So, "what is this magical mascara then?" I hear you cry!  Well, let me put you out of your misery...it is actually... Rimmel's Glam'Eyes Day 2 Night



There are two ways to apply the mascara; you can either make them nice and thick by using the pink section or you can lengthen them using the black part, which drains off the excess mascara by being pulled through the tube of the pink section.


Here is a picture of me (yes, taken on snapchat) after using the mascara - as you can see my eyelashes look long and defined, rather than clumped together (which I find is often the case); a friend even thought that I was wearing false eyelashes in the picture but I promise that I wasn't.  This is the result of the Day 2 Night mascara.  (No idea why I'm sporting the duck pout...)




Top Pro: Long, defined eyelashes.  Do I need to say any more?

Lowest Con: I found the mascara dries out rather quickly so, unfortunately, you may need to replace sooner than you'd expect.  However, this could have been a result of overuse because I loved it so much...
