Another Beauty Bargain from Penneys


As much as I love my high end products I am constantly on the lookout for cheaper alternatives. So when I spotted these lipliners in Penneys and they were priced at €1.50 a piece I knew I had to try them!  

Penneys have totally upped their game in the beauty department recently with their "p.s love..." range and it's very hard to ignore. Especially for a girl working in the City Centre who just so happens to cut through Penneys everyday to get the the carpark ;)

With eyeshadows, lipsticks, lip glosses, eye crayons, bronzers, mascara and so on, these days there really is no beauty product that you can not pick up in your local Penneys! 

But is it possible for products that are so inexpensive to be of any quality?
Absolutely! 

I spent the weekend trying out these lipliners and they totally exceeded my expectations.


The consistency of the pencil is like a crayon which makes them so easy to apply. 
The pigments are really strong so whether you go for the brown, pink or red you will get a really true solid colour that will last for hours.



I would describe the finish as matte which means they are not only great for lining the lips and preventing lipstick from bleeding but they can also be worn all over with a small bit of gloss on top as an alternative to lipstick.

There are only 3 colours in the range but I am hoping more will be added when Primark see how popular these beauties are! 
They are honestly as good as some of the most expensive lipliners I own.

I don't know how Penneys do it but they really are stepping up to the mark and giving some of the most popular cosmetic companies a run for their money!

Pick these up ladies and I know you won't be disappointed! 

Thanks for reading

Cocoa Brown 1 Hour Tan Review

Image
With so many tans on the market claiming to be "the best tan ever" it's hard to know which ones are worth trying!  So many come with expensive price tags but that is not always an indication as to how true their claims are. As a pale Irish girl constantly seeking a tan I have tried numerous brands and formulas but never finding that "perfect" one. I have tried them all, from the high end brands to their cheaper counterparts, tanning wipes (disaster), gels, spray tans the list goes on and on!  I found tans that were beautiful when first applied but left me looking scaley after the first wash. Then there were some that turned out perfect but just took too many applications to get the right shade (not too light, not orange, not too dark..is that too much to ask for??!)  So on my never ending quest to find the "one" I decided to try the much talked about and much hyped up Cocoa Brown. The main reason I decided to give it a go was the m

All About The Base...

Image
When it comes to make up the most important part of my routine is the skin.  Yes I love a smokey eye, winged liner and perfectly arched brows but a flawless base is what brings any look together! In this blog I will tell you about the products I rely on to achieve that flawless finish. Primer:  I start off with MAC Prep & Prime Skin.  This evens out my skin tone, reduces redness and creates a smooth base for foundation while hydrating the skin. Concealer: Like many girls I suffer from breakouts, particularly on my chin.  I like to use Mac Pro Longwear Concealer to cover those spots before I apply foundation. If you are yet to find a concealer that covers your blemishes then this one is for you! Foundation: My all time favourite is Estée Lauder Double Wear. It gives the most amazing coverage and it does not budge.  It's heat proof, sweat proof, dance proof and the perfect foundation for nights out or occasions where you want your make
