Tropic | Body Love Buttercream

Hey girls!
I have been very busy lately and haven't had much time to relax and pamper myself so this review will be my sisters thoughts! I hope to try this product very shortly so I can add my own opinion! Before I start I want to apologise for the poor background, I am in the middle of moving rooms and I have no pretty corner to take pictures for you lovely people.
 
The product I will be talking about is TROPIC BODY LOVE BUTTERCREAM. Although I haven't tried this product I can say that the tub is very pretty and has all the information on needed to be able to understand how to use the product and what ingredients are included, and this product also has the vegan logo and the leaping bunny for anyone interested in products which are cruelty free.
 
 
I really admire how they have chosen green font colour which in my opinion resembles that this product is made with NATURAL plant extract by using a natural colour such as green which you would see a lot of in plants.
 
SISTERS REVIEW:
I am really impressed with this product, not only does it have an amazing smell to it, it also leaves the skin feeling soft and moisturised. As for the scent, I would say it's a very sweet, citrus smell. On the tub it explains that this product is infused with notes of Lemon Myrtle and Bergamot essential oils, I was right when I said this product has some sort of citrus scent to it.
 
Directions: Indulge daily after showering or bathing to leave your skin feeling & smelling simply irresistible.
 
Sorry this was a short review but considering I haven't tried this for myself I cannot say as much as I would like to, all I can say is that this product smells incredible and I would recommend it to anyone with a love for citrus scents.

Models Own | Lip Stix

Hey there!
          This morning I went to do the last big of christmas sale shopping. I had a £10 Boots gift card from christmas and I spent it today on a product ive been waiting to try for so long. And TA-DAAAA, I took this opportunity to buy not one but two of the Models Own Lip Stix which are basically chunky lip crayons, they cost £5 each which is a reasonable price.
 Here are some pics of the shades I chose and bought.

 
 I chose these shades as I don't tend to buy many pink lipsticks so I thought ide start off my collection of pink's now. Beauty Blush is such a pretty, barbie like pink and to me it would suit any skin tone. BUT I am such a big fan of purple lip products hence the reason why I bought this lovely lilac shade called Purple Pleasure, It applies a lot lighter than it looks, its almost a pink colour, infact in the picture below it looks very pink. I normally go for dark purples if I am choosing a lip product but im sure I can find ways to make it work!

 
I am obsessed with the texture of these stix, they are so smooth and mositurising, I have used a lot of lipsticks that have been very dry on my lips but these do the complete opposite. I normally apply a base before putting lipstick on such as a lip primer or vasaline to make the surface of my lips smoother for applying lipstick but I didn't have to do it with these.
I would deffinatly by more and may even try to get the whole collection as they are super cheap compared to other cosmetic brands.
 
Top swatch: Purple Pleasure
Bottom Swatch: Beauty Blush
when swatched these lipstix look very pigmented.

In Boots at the moment when you buy two or more products from the brand Models Own you get a FREE glitter kit worth £10!!! This made me very happy as I now have the chance to try out Models Own's nail polish which Ive hear a lot of positive things about.
 
Comment below if you have tried any other Models Own products that you would or even wouldn't recommend as I will be sure to shop with them again.

Red/plum lip tutorial

I love doing dark lips in the winter and here is how I created my favourite dark lip look. This look is very simple although there are quite a few products involved, it's a super fast look to do so it would be great for if you don't have a lot of time to do your make up.
                
Products I used:
Elf plump and prime duo
Gosh long lasting lip marker in the shade 003 Berry
MUA matte lipstick in the shade Scarlett Siren 
elf Hypershine Gloss in the shade Joy
Elf long wear lip liner in Bitter 

How to create this looks:
1. Use the prime side of the elf plump and prime duo. This creates a light tone on your lips which will make the lip colour over the top of the primer more vibrant. 
2. Apply the Elf long wear lip liner around the lips, sometimes I apply the lip liner all over my lips which would also create an amazing look. 
3. I then went onto using the Gosh lip marker in Berry all over the lips. I wouldn't recommend this lip marker to many people as it is very dry and doesn't stand out very well although I use it if I am going for a more natural dark lip. 
4. I next used the MUA lipstick which in my opinion is a very dry lipstick it reminds me a lot of a play doe texture but other than that it applies great. This lipstick will go all over the lip, you can use a lip brush to be more accurate.
5. Apply a thin layer of the Elf hypershine lipgloss, I say thin because this gloss is very thick, unless you create a very shiny lip look then you may apply more but I only like the have a thin layer of gloss.

And your look is finished, I hope this was helpful and please feel free to ask for more tutorials.
