BEAUTY: STILA BOHEMIAN BEAUTY



I recently went along to a blogger event at Harvey Nichols in Birmingham and got to check out all of latest products in the new Stila Spring collection. The collection is called Bohemian Beauty. The range has a boho, gypsy vibe to it and concentrates on colours and textures.

There's lots of new products in the range and lots of amazing new shades to choose from. The collection is huge.

I have been given a few bits from the new collection and thought i'd feature them on my blog. I have been using them and thought i'd share my first impressions.

I'm loving the Shimmer & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow in Jezabel, it's a gorgeous Rose Gold Shade. I fell in love with this at the event and it was in my goody bag which was amazing. I've used it everyday this week and it's just such a lovely product. The Shimmer & Glow contains the same translucent adhesive base formula as the original Glitter & Glow but with a smaller particle pearl for high impact shimmering colour minus the Glitter. I haven't used the Glitter & Glow shadows before but have heard really good things. The Shimmer & Glow shadow is basically the same but without the glitter so it's a little more subtle for everyday. Jezebel is a gorgeous Rose Gold shade, it's a pink/ gold shade and has a beautiful shimmer finish. It's so easy to blend out or you can just sweep it across the lid for a more pigmented finish. I've been blending it out and working a darker shade into the corner.

I've also been loving the Stila smudge Kajal Eye liner in Sapphire, it's this beautiful dark navy blue shade. I have never worn a blue eyeliner before as I felt it would look dated but this shade is gorgeous. I've been wearing it all week and I think it brings out the blue in my eyes. It makes my eyes stand out more and i've been wearing it along side the Jezebel eyeshadow and it works really well. I've applied the liner to my lid and under my eye and blended it out. They also have an Intense Black, Nude and Espresso shade too.

I haven't tried the liquid lipstick just yet but the Stila Matte Liquid lipsticks are so good. They are a really creamy formula and not drying on the lips at all. Stila have released some beautiful new shades for the spring collection, I love the look of Dolce Vita. As well as the original Stay all day liquid lipstick they have released a shimmer formula and and sheer finish. They have the same staying power and same amazing feel but without the matte finish. The Sheer liquid lipstick is a matte finish but with a more translucent finish so it's more of a wash of colour and the shimmer liquid lipstick has a metallic shimmering finish.

I will be putting up a post about the Stila blogger event that I attended with more images of the whole range so be sure to check that out.

BEAUTY: NEW! MAKE UP FROM NIP + FAB


Today I thought i'd share this amazing new Launch from Nip + Fab! I've used Nip + Fab products for years and have always really liked the brand. I am forever hearing rave reviews about their incredible skincare range but that's not what I'm sharing with you today. 

Today i'm talking about the BRAND NEW make up collection by Nip + Fab!! They have launched a massive collection of make up products including foundation, concealer, correctors, contour palettes, lip products, eyeshadow and much more! 

They have kindly sent me a selection of products which I will be reviewing and featuring on my blog in the new few weeks! I just wanted to share the range with you and introduce you to Nip + Fab make up and I know it's going to be great!

I haven't used any of the products yet as I've only just taken these photos but I have swatched a couple of bits and i'm already impressed. I had to swatch the Liquid Lipsticks as the shades they've sent over are gorgeous! They dried quite fast and are a really good consistency. They were a nightmare to remove which is exactly what you want from a Liquid lipstick so i'm impressed with these already. I also gave the colour correctors a swatch and they are such lovely colours, they are easy to blend and again a good consistency, not too thin/ runny. 

Overall i'm sooo excited to give the range a try, I will be writing reviews in the next few weeks so keep your eyes peeled for that but in the mean time head over to the Nip+Fab website to check out 
the whole make up range and let me know what your favourite things are!
