The Perfect Lashes For Bespectacled Ladies - Fleur De ForceXEylure

Eylure Fleur De Force Fleur Loves Lashes - feelunique.com
 
I have recently discovered a love for false lashes! they're brilliant aren't they?! It's the easiest way to add an extra lil' somethin' somethin' to your make up look and they really just pull everything together perfectly.
Whether you're a volume or length girl or both, there are lashes to suit all and some of my favourites are by Eyelure.
Recently there has been an overwhelming amount of bloggers and Youtubers releasing their own cosmetics and ranges, some which I have loved, some not so much. One that I do rave about and will continue to rave about is the lovely Fleur de Force's collaboration with Eyelure, I have only tried one product in the range but boy are they a beaut!
 
These are the Fleur Loves lashes that are 3/4 length, so perfect for girls who have smaller eyes (like me!) and because they are only 3/4 lengths they are perfect for glasses wearers (again like myself) as you don't get that annoying feeling of them constantly touching the lenses and having to wear your glasses halfway down your nose.
These are brilliantly light, as if you having nothing on your eyes at all, they blend beautifully with natural lashes and are perfect for everyday use as they aren't too out there.
I personally prefer a thinner band as I feel they look more natural and you can't feel them as much as the thicker banded lashes, I also find them easier to apply.
At £5.25 these are cheaper than other Eyelure lashes and considering I wore my first pair about 8 times you can get a lot of bang for your buck!
Also for those looking to bag themselves an extra bargin, right now at Boots it's 3for2 on selected nails and eyelashes, so it's the perfect time to try out fake eyelashes if you haven't already. It's really not that hard to master so don't be afraid to try them!
 
What do you think of Fleur's collab with Eyelure? Let me know in the comments!

The Wanderer Returns

Surprise! I'm back and more committed then ever!
I thought for my first post back I'd do a quick little FOTD and a life update to explain my long absence.

 I went for a very natural eye today but with a flick of liquid liner to really define my eyes.
I used my most recent purchase: the Make up revolution Ultra Eyeshadow palette in Flawless. It contains some beautiful warm and shimmery rose gold shades as well as some smokier matte shadows. This palette is beautiful for everyday use, but also includes everything you need for the perfect sultry "night out" eye look and at only £8 its a pure bargain, you can pick yours up from most local boots stores now!


Another one of my recent purchases in the Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara, it comes in this beautiful metallic pink packaging, and I have to say it is one of the best drug-store mascaras that I have ever tried, it's non-irritant and does not transfer at all, even if used on your bottom lashes, once this mascara is on, it will not budge (saying that it's still fairly easy to remove with a simple eye make up remover)

I have recently been using the Primer Plus by GOSH and love the way it makes my make up go on and last all day (although it is silocony, it's nothing like the Benefit Porefessional or the Maybelline baby skin) it's perfection transitional primer for the weird in between winter and summer phase.

I also recently picked up a Tanya Burr lip gloss in Just Peachy and it will definitely not be my last purchase from her range, not only is it a beautiful formula and goes on smoothly but it also smells amazing - just like Haribo Strawbs!

What did you think of the look? let me know in the comments!

Life update:
I know that I haven't posted in a LONG time (understatement of the year really) but everything just went so crazy, I left college and didn't seem to really know what I was going to do with my life.
but I think I've finally got it sorted, I've got amazing people around me who I love and care for and I have gotten rid of all the negative people (trust me it does you a world of good and if you think the negative people are going to change then sadly they're not, you're just better off without them in your life)
I have also been working as a trainee dental nurse for the past 5 months, which I am really enjoying, It's not something I ever thought I could see myself doing, but I'm glad I applied for the job. 
And if all that wasn't enough I've been quite ill recently, but don't worry I'm on the road to recovery, I've got my Roids (I'm not turning into a body builder dw, my immune system is so shit that my body needs extra help to to get me through this) and my antibiotics and lots of chocolate and cookies, right now I am one happy girl! 

Thank you for reading, don't forget to like, comment and follow, maybe even let me know how your life is going!

Thanks,

Robyn :)

The MAC-Daddy Of All Presents


As you may, or may not know, Saturday was my 18th birthday, yep! that's right, I am now officially an adult (God help us all!). I also share my birthday with my beautiful twin sister charlotte, who is now my favourite ever person for buying me my first MAC palette, insert and eye shadows EEK!!

L-R: Sable, Wedge, Amber lights, Shroom, Retro-Speck and Nocturnelle
I had always wanted a MAC eye shadow palette and I was speechless when I woke up on Saturday morning to unwrap these beauties!!! do I have the best sister or do I have the best sister!?
I had written down a list of shades that I wanted and she got it spot on with the bronze/goldie tones that look amazing on my blue eyes! MAC eye shadows are really as amazing as everyone says they stay put all day, not a crease in sight! with their beautiful buttery soft texture with hardly any fall out. although they're £10 a pop I have definitely found my new obsession, I reckon I'll have about 3 more palettes by the start of 2015 (there goes my bank balance). I'd say although I'd wish that they were cheaper, they are definitely worth the money, I've never had eye shadow even half as good as the lil' circles of joy!

L-R: Sable, Wedge, Amber Lights, Shroom, Retro-Speck, Nocturnelle



 
Have you tried any MAC eye shadows? What did you think and what shade is your favourite (I need suggestions).
 
Thanks
