October Favourites

Another month has passed by. To be honest I didn't used to much new things. There were some good launches but those will probably be featured in the next monthly faves.
This month includes a few different things than I usually show. Now without further rambling. Lets show you my monthly high flyers.

My sister is back in England: Wishlist

What is the best thing about the fact that your big sister has an English/Scottish girlfriend? Maybe we can travel more, maybe at home I can enjoy the rest more? Nope, the fact that I have amazing easy access to Superdrug! Hah :)

I wasn't planning on actually getting something. But there were some exciting launches and some 'I don't accept your belgian card' issues.

Today therefore I decided to again show you a new wishlist.
Whats on there? Continue reading.

Catrice: Absolute Matt Palette

A full drugstore matt palette is very hard to find. Sleek has a very good one. Its the Ultra Mattes V2 Darks palette which I am very pleased about.
However its a tad harder to get my hands on Sleek and a few weeks ago Catrice came with the amazing news that they would release a new add to their 'absolute' palettes. A full matt palette.

My first impression was fine. Yet not to woaw. My final thought? That you can read here.

Make Up For Ever: HD primer

Recently I went to a make up fair in Brussels, BE. I was fairly disappointed about the fair. The fair, in my opinion, was more focused on nail specialists. Yes I like nails but I went there for the make up.

Yet what I did found was a display by one of my favourite high end brands. Make Up For Ever.
Even better I got a student discount. I couldn't pass!
I got myself a primer. I decided to get an add of my HD collection.
Did I found a good one in this primer? Lets find out.

My favourite YouTubers

If there is one thing I instantly do when turning my laptop is checking the blog (of course) and YouTube. After a hectic day of work it is some sort of relieve to settle down at night and don't think about work anymore.

Over the past months I have found lots of new YouTubers that I really enjoy. And I thought it might be fun to share them with you.

So lets jump right into it.

New In: Catrice, Absolute Matt

Since the new Catrice changes I totally overspent. With the third display arriving it got even worse. But I really wanted to get certain products.
Also this palette in particular. It got really popular in a short time so it was quit the hassle to finally get it.
Today I wanted to quickly show you the palette. A full review well be up in a short time. Now, lets have a look.

Essence: Soo Glow, Cream to powder highlighter

Going down the budget road the past blogposts! Turns out I love me some good budget and I love to show you guys that!

Today, yes no surprise here, I am showing you some Essence goodies that came with their new autumn/winter change.
Remember me reviewing the Essence Soo Blush products. I really enjoyed them. Perfect for summer.

Yet with autumn and winter approaching the sunny days are gone, I like to create a more highlighted and bronzed face to lighten up the plain days, if that makes sense. And therefore these highlighters come in the picture.
My review, you can find it here.

Catrice: Velvet Finish, Foundation & Concealer

The past few weeks new budget goodies came into Belgian drugstores. I of course went a bit crazy.

When seeing what was coming in stores by Catrice cosmetics I instantly set eyes on their new foundations. The Nude Illusion Foundation got very mixed reviews. But I really liked it. Great coverage and fairly longlasting.
This new duo I had to try as well since it got very good reviews. Today I am providing you with my thoughts on it.
Even better than the last foundation release or not? Lets find out.

Soap & Glory: Lipproducts, Gloss Stick & Lip Lacquer

On my trip to London I went a bit crazy in the lip department. Color Elixir by Maybelline and Revlon Colorburst Moisture Stain. And some more. The choice over there was so big and I wish I would have taken more products. But I had to make decisions.

Soap & Glory was one of thé brands I had to bring the most of. A gloss stick and lip lacquer were also chosen.
I haven't been to experimental on the lacquer part. And the sticky gloss things I have already a lot of. Still I couldn't resist!

Today I will reveal my thoughts on both lovelies. Worth the trip or not? Lets find out.

Catrice: Prime & Fine, Healthy Look Primer

Primers, I 90% of times don't see what their point is. I have tried several ones and if I use one its my Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser but only on special occasions.

Last week Catrice cosmetics came out with a new primer. Healthy look primer. Their first two primer were, in my opinion, quit a big fail. They actually made me ever more oily and made it even possible that my foundation was lasting for only a short amount of time.
Yet when I saw this new prime and fine product came I just had to try it and therefore today's blogpost is about this new product.
And equally big fail? Lets find out!

Revlon: Ultimate Suede Lipstick

Lipstick. I have enough of those, yes. But there is always that slightly different shade or texture that is just worth the extra lipstick.
I love my Revlon lipsticks and recently I did an amazing discovery. Revlon in my hometown! And the lipstick display had some gems I haven't seen before. Not even when being in London.

And today I am giving you my thought on some suede lipsticks.
Intrigued, keep reading.

My favourite series (ATM)

If I have some spare time, when not blogging, I love to watch series. It may sounds weird but it is so relaxing after my classes and work.

Especially the past two years I have been following some series a lot. Followed and watched a lot. And almost every month I start to watch something new (or a new season starts).

I thought I might make a good blogpost.
What do I watch to relax? Lets have a look.

Nars: Sheer Glow Foundation

Foundation is something tricky to get spot on. I normally can get away with the shades whenever the undertone is correct. But if I decide to get myself a High End foundation I want it match perfectly! Logical isn't it, because it is a big amount of money to pay.
In London I finally convinced myself to get thé foundation that was on top of my luxury wishlist. Nars, loved and mentioned a lot with other bloggers. But was this price all worth it?

September Favourites + Everyday make up

September is over. Summer is over! Yes someone is getting depressed here! I already see and notice major skin differences and I don't like it!
This month wasn't a month of a lot of experimenting therefore. I stuck to a well loved look of mine and that transfers into my monthly favourites which is kind of also my everyday make up.
Does it seems interesting? Lets have a look.

Maybelline: BROWdrama

Brows, I am the only girl who always seems to struggle getting my eyebrows in place to how I want? Probably not. 

I can't seen to first of find a proper shade powder or gel product to match my very light hair, yet darker brows. Whenever I saw the add for Browdrama by Maybelline, I wanted to try that one.

I bought it in London and got matches to one of the shades by the Maybelline girl in Superdrug.
My thoughts? You can read them here.

Catrice: Check & Tweed LE palettes

Earlier today I presented you with a new mascara review by Catrice. As second one of today, there are more Catrice goodies coming your way.

You've maybe noticed on my blog but I seem to like lots of limited edition by Catrice lately. They seem to exactly know my soft spot.

The last LE was called Check & Tweed. I haven't seen to much reviews about the collection but I am going to change that with this review. The gorgeous palettes I got and purchased for you.
Lets take a look.

Catrice: Lash Extention Mascara

- Due to technical issues you get yesterdays blogpost, today! Tonight there also will be a new one.. -

I am a sucker for good quality (budget) mascara. Up to this day I have tried a billion ones and not a single mascara won from my beloved Maybelline mascaras.

And even though I always think about a mascara that I wouldn't like it as much. I love to test them. They are my favourite things to try!

So it wouldn't surprise you that I am back with another mascara review. This time budget and totally new in the drugstore in Belgium.
A winner? Take a look.

Essence: Effect Eyeshadow

Lately I prefer to go for cream shadows, they are easy to use, quick and if you are as lazy as I am in the morning, creams are your best friend.

I already found some precious babies in the Maybelline Color Tattoo creams and I haven't found one that could compete next to them.

Yet with an Essence change a few months ago (where I wasn't to impressed about) I did find new creams.
Effect shadows. Way cheaper than Maybelline. Are they better than my Maybelline ones? Lets find out.

Soap & Glory: Love at First Blush

I am a big fan of Soap & Glory! Their make up range is super cute even their body and skin care are included with a super adorable packaging. After some testing I can definitely say I want more!

One of my newest purchases was a blush. The Peach Party blush brick, I reviewed already, click here to see that one, I love to pieces. I think it has been my most used blush the past months. 

But I may have found another contestant to compete!
Another blush. Yes indeed by Soap & Glory.
Is it a win? Lets find out.
