E.L.F Make Up Brush Review!

Hey guys so I have something different for you today! 

Instead of nails I have an E.L.F. Make Up Brush Review! Now when I say I'm completely new to the 'make up world' I mean it, I'm 18 years old and the only make up I have depended on was my trusty concealer, eyeliner and mascara! But since starting this blog with Rosie I have started to get into make up more and more, constantly watching youtube tutorials and I now own two lipsticks (which I might do a review on soon depends how this one goes) and 5 make up brushes! I will hopefully soon be able to go shopping and get some more make up and might even do a haul!

The brushes I bought I would say would be the 'beginners brushes' so if you're starting out like me I would definitely recommend these 5!

UV Body Paint REVIEW!

Hey everyone, I am so excited about this review! Basically I'm going clubbing for Halloween and I didn't want to be scary so I thought about UV Body Paint, so I bought this and it's amazing!

Where I bought the UV Paint from: 
Site: eBay
Seller: partysupplies2u
Price: £5.99 (free postage) for 6 colours (10ml)
Colours: Pink, Peach, Orange, Blue, Green, Yellow



I know the photograph of me isn't so great and the lighting is weird but getting a photo with UV Light in the background is harder than you think! Basically you can create a design anywhere on your body, I chose to do it on my face and create this design! I used a cotton bud to dab the paint onto my face, I know it isn't perfect but I'll do it better on the night! 


I definitely recommend getting UV Body Paint if you want something simple for Halloween or for any occasion, like New Years Eve or a party that has UV lighting. When the product came I did think they were really small but I only needed a little bit for the night and I can use them again, but for the price they are worth it and if I ever run out I can just purchase them again, they came really quick in the post!

Favourite MUA Products!

Hey! I've picked some of my favourite MUA products and thought I'd share them with you guys. MUA isn't my favourite brand of make-up but they definitely have some great stuff!





Ok, so the first products I'm showing you guys are these above. On the left is a nail varnish I recently got for Autumn in the colour Plum Noir, it's a deep purple colour that looks absolutely amazing on my nails! And unlike most nail polishes it didn't chip for quite a while which is great! Next are the two palettes, my friend bought me these for my birthday actually, one is called 'Smoke Screen' and the other is 'Pink Sorbet'. I would say I have used the smokey palette more than the pinks just because I love having dark smokey eyes when I got out. I would definitely recommend these palettes though because using three colours, one for the inner part of your eye, the outer part and the crease is great to get you started when creating the same coloured make-up look! Last in this is a Gold Glitter Eyeliner, I have had this for ages but have only recently started trying it out, I think it looks fantastic on, it isn't dull or doesn't move off your eyelid, it's definitely great for a party!



Ok so this is a palette I use everyday, mostly for highlighting and blush. The colours consist of (from left to right from the top to bottom) Pistaschio, Mocca, Ice, Grape, Chocolate, Cookie, Pink Sparkle, Primrose, Bronzed, Shimmer Kiss. The colours along the top are eye shadows and the colours along the bottom are blushes, bronzer and highlighter. I have already used the purply colour and the dark brown colour and they are amazing, they stay on all night and apply really nicely! The blushes are a great match for any ones cheek and it's nice they have two shades, one darker than the other. The highlighter I also use under my eyes everyday and down my noise just to brighten my face and it looks great!


I would definitely recommend all the products I have shown here, they are all super cheap so great if you need new make-up face and are on a budget! MUA products are always super cheap but are good quality.

DELIVERY: Make-Up Brush Set!

Hey guys, it's Rosie! I thought I would share with you guys the delivery I got through the post! The make-up brushes I was originally using were average and they were ok for me to use but I thought I needed a new set with lots of different brushes that I could use to help create different looks. So I ordered a set off eBay for £9.98, they are a Professional German Brand called 'Fraulein 38'. I thought they looked amazing in the picture and there was 21 pieces in the set so I thought they would be perfect for me as I'm not looking for really expensive brushes, I am just looking for practical brushes that can be used in many different ways.




As you can see I have put in a close-up of each brush, the first and section brushes are used for eyebrows. I already had the second one but another one won't hurt! The third brush is obviously used for eyeshadow and the next four brushes are used for fine use like when you want to apply liquid eyeliner or a pigment.



These brushes here are used for eyeshadow appliance and blending. I have already used some of these brushes and they are amazing, so much better than ones I was previously using. As you can see some of them are thicker, these ones are used for blending, the flat ones are used for eyeshadow and the angled brushes are great for blending through the crease of your eye.


The first brush here is a flat foundation brush, I was a bit annoyed because I really wanted to invest in a foundation brush that I can use to buff the foundation into my skin and this set does not have one, however I used the brush shown and it's amazing! It's like the one I had before but it's so soft and applied my foundation flawlessly! The next two brushes are used for applying blush on your cheeks or you could use them to apply powder but I use the big brush for that. The angled brush in the middle is great for contouring also the one on the end on the right which is fanned out for creating quite a harsh contour line. And the big brush I use for applying powder.


Here I've just shown a photograph of all of the brushes that I got, they came in a leather fold out case and each brush was slotted in with plastic around the handle and brush to make sure they don't get damaged. I'm so glad I purchased these brushes, so far I love them!


If you are looking for a lot of brushes that are great for everything and are not looking to spend a lot of money then I would definitely say to purchase these, they're great!


If you liked this post or are thinking about purchasing these brushes then look them up on eBay. Please tag rrbeautyxo on twitter/instagram/tumblr if you have any questions about the brushes or any questions in general, we'd love to hear from you!

Review on SIMPLE RAPID ACTION SPOT ZAPPER!

Hey guys, so I thought I would do something different today, I'm going to do a review on one of my favourite products that I've had for such a long time now! The Simple Rapid Action Spot Zapper!




I purchased this item a while ago because when I get breakouts my spots become rashy and red and they stand out really bad, so it's unlucky for me :( However, this Spot Zapper is absolutely amazing! It is a roll on liquid that you roll on over your spots and they are nearly gone the next day! I apply it more than once over my spots a day because I want them to go as fast as possible!


It does say on the packaging, "Zaps spots in just 4 hours!" Which is exactly what it does! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who suffers from spots all the time, or even if you have great skin but randomly breakout with one, this will work!


You can purchase this item from:

  • Boots: £5.49
  • Superdrug: £5.49
  • Amazon: £4.00
  • Tesco: £5.00
  • The Health Counter.com: £3.97
As you can see it is more expensive if you buy it from a drugstore than if you were to buy it from a supermarket, but seriously this product will last you for over a year, depends how often you use it! 


I hope you enjoyed my review of this product, if you'd like to see more reviews on a product, make sure to tag rrbeautyxo on twitter and instagram, also check out our tumblr page!
