This post isn’t the one I was going to post next. I just couldn’t contain myself after coming off of the Superdrug website so I jumped straight onto my blog to tell you about an amazing deal I managed to get. As you can probably tell by the title I managed to get my hands on 4 EYESHADOW PALETTES FOR £12! Superdrug have always been amazing for promotions and the one that caught my attention was that if you spend £12 on Makeup Revolution products, you get the Love Conquers All palette for free.
I was determined to get the most out of this promotion as I love their eyeshadow palettes. So I went onto the eyeshadow palette section and selected it to be sorted by price from lowest to highest. I managed to find 3 decent sized palettes all £4 each which made up the total and I got the 4th palette free.
It’s that time of year again. It’s Valentines day. Personally I am not a fan of Valentines day but I think I have managed to create a makeup look/outfit that could be for a night out for all you lovers or for those single independent women. I will give you a run down of all of the products I used to create this makeup look and the outfit I am wearing. If I cannot find the original item I will try to find something similar.

💟 Makeup 💟
Foundation: Bourjois Healthy Mix
Concealer: Maybelline Age Rewind Eye Concealer + Collection Lasting Perfection
Bronzer: NYX Highlight & Contour Pro Palette
Powder: Rimmel Insta Fix Matte Powder
Blush: Nip + Fab Make Up Blusher Palette
Highlight: KIKO Milano Arctic Holiday Holographic Highlighter (Starry Gold)
I used 2 palettes for this eyeshadow look. I used the Soph x Makeup Revolution Palette and The Balm Nude Dude Palette.
The first thing I did was put some of my Collection Lasting Perfection concealer on my lids as a base/primer as I personally do not use eyeshadow primers. I then took this light nude shade from my Soph x Makeup Revolution palette, on a flat Real Techniques brush to set it in place.Secondly I used one of my NYX fluffy brush and took a mixture of these 3 shades but mainly focusing on the two on the right hand side. I took these shades through my crease, focusing on making a V shape in the outer side.I decided I was going to do a cut crease so I went back in with the concealer and carved out my lid. Next moved onto my The Balm palette which I took a slightly thicker but still flat brush from the brand Royal and Langnickel and I packed lots of the shade Fit onto my lid over the concealer. After that I went in with a light dusting of fabulous over the top to make it brighter.
💕Outfit💕
For outfit I wanted something smart but casual but also a bit dressy so that you could wear it out for a romantic meal or just out with your friends.
Shoes
I went for some very “out their” shoes. I am a bit in love with these sparkly silver shoes from New Look. These are also still on the website in the sale (which is amazing!)
I kept with the valentines theme and went with a red fitted thin jumper with criss cross front and this was from H&M. I couldn’t find the original garment on the website however they do have a couple of other red jumpers with a similar vibe.
