MAC Rebel dupe?! ♥

Hey guys! 

As promised my next post is going to be a MAC dupe!

Any of you may have already seen these two lipsticks being compared to each other but I thought why not add another comparison into the mix and show you guys! Plus for those of you who haven't seen these compared you will have by the end of this post! Haha! 

The dupe I have found is a lipstick from America. Now if your from the UK your probably thinking well this isn't helpful to me however your are wrong. This lipstick I am going to mention to you is easy to get a hold of if you have an eBay account. 

The lipstick is from the brand Wet n Wild and the colour is 'Sugar Plum Fairy' which I think is a cute name! It's a semi-matte so just like Rebel it has a slight gloss to it and excellent staining power! When I wear either one of these I end up with pinky/purple lips when I wipe it off at the end of the day! 

I decided to take the tube of both lipstick with flash so you could see how similar they are in the tube and then without flash for on the lips for the same effect. 

As you can see in the tube and on the lips these lipstick are soooo similar, the only little tiny difference you can see is that Rebel is slightly darker but in natural daylight they look the spitting image!

I have actually worn both lipsticks side by side when on a day out and I asked a few people if they thought my lips looked a different colour on each side and they said no and then asked why! 

MAC lipsticks cost £15 and you can pick up the Wet n Wild lipstick for £4.18 including postage from eBay. The lipstick comes from America but the good thing with the company that I brought it off is if you order more than one item from them they will reduce the postage save you paying more than you should.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post and maybe in the future I will be able to find a few more dupes for you!

Hope you are all okay!

Take care

Busy, stressed and ill

Hey guys
Sorry I haven't posted in a while 
The reason for this is due to the fact that because I'm going to New Zealand in 17 days I have a bomb a lot of school work to be doing before I leave for the three weeks.

I have been doing work for film studies, revising from music and I have finally finished my media course which is a huge weight off my shoulders and also getting ready for my driving test. 

The past week I haven't been feeling 100% I have been to the doctors today to get some tablets and the doctor is not sure whether it's my appendix but only time can tell. I have another appointment tomorrow with the doctor to see if it has gotten any better or worse and if it does get that bad i will be making a trip up to A&E on Saturday but lets hope it doesn't have to come to that! *fingers crossed*
I haven't forgotten about the MAC Rebel and Wet n Wild Sugar Plum Fairy comparison and it shall be up before i leave for New Zealand i promise!
I hope you guys are well and are having a fabulous night or day which ever part of the world you are in and yeah! That's all i really have to say for this post!

Small beauty haul from America! ♥

Hey guys! 

I'm so excited to be bringing you this post! 

As I said in a couple of posts back, I was waiting for Postman Pat to bring me a package in the mail! With me being away for the week I didn't know the package had come and when I got home yesterday afternoon I was over the moon to open it! The first thing I did was drop my suitcase and run upstairs to open and try everything out! I'm so happy with these items and will defiantly be purchasing some more!

To start off I'm going to tell you where I got these from. Due to me living in the UK we can't get brands like 'Wet n Wild' and I really wanted to try some of their products as many you tubers and bloggers from America or who have been to America and picked a few products up have given the brand so many positive comments! I didn't really want yo try any eyeshadow so I picked up 6 lipsticks from the 'Wet n Wild' brand and also picked up a 'Jordana' Mascara. There is a website called BeautyJoint.com who ship internationally and offer some of the American products that not everyone can get. I was going to be placing my order threw the website until I found their eBay shop and decided to go that was instead. There is not really a difference in going through eBay or through site but since I was already adding things into my basket in eBay I thought it would just be easier to do it that way. My order came to around £19 and around $31 which for 6 lipsticks and a mascara is very good in my eyes baring in mind a lipstick in the UK from let's say Rimmel costs close on £5. 5x6=30 then you have to add on and extra £5-£10 for a drugstore mascara from rimmel. Meaning the total equals around the £35/£40. Was that good estimate or? Haha!

All of these lipsticks are semi-matte which means they have a bit of a glossy finish are not very drying on the lips!

Let's get on with the post! 

The first lipstick I pick up was 'Don't Blink Pink. This colour is not for the fainthearted as it is a very bright hot pink. This lipstick would be perfect on its on with a bit of eye liner but for me I would possibly wear this with a dark brown eye with with lipstick being a pop of colour! 

The next lipstick I picked up was 'Coral-ine'. This to me is the perfect coral colour. It's not too orangey and it's not to red which is amazing! It's not a very bright in your face coral colour but it is lovely 

The next colour I picked up was 'Purty Persimmon'. This is a lovely orange colour! Like 'Coral-ine' it's not as in your face as the other orange lipstick that Wet n Wild do. 

The next lipstick I pick up was 'Cherry Picking'. This colour is a bit more difficult to explain in colour, it is pink but has a small under tone of a blue/purple. It is meant to be a dupe for RIRI MAC pleasure bomb but since I do not own that lipstick can't give you a side by side swatch comparison. 

The last lipstick is 'Sugar Plum Fairy'. You guys may be wondering why I have only mentioned 5 lipsticks states 6 up at the beginning, this is because I brought two of these lipsticks. For those of you who don't know this lipstick is meant to be the dupe for MAC Rebel which I LOVE. It's one of my all time favorite lipsticks and I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy the other colours I ordered so just incise I didn't I would have 2. I will be making a separate post with swatches for this lipstick and MAC Rebal to show you how much of a dupe they are! The colour is a dark purple colour with a small hint of blue. 

The last thing I brought was a mascara from Jordana. I got this mascara due to Lauren Curtis from YouTube raving about this mascara and always using it in her tutorials. I have to say this May be my ultimate favourite mascara! It's perfect for my lashes! It is a volumes in mascara but boy does it pack some length aswell! I wanted to show you guys how this changed my lashes so I took a before and after picture of my lashes but before that this is what the product looks like! 

It may not look much on the picture but i assure you it makes them look rather long! What I like about the brush on this mascara is that it gets into the lashes on the inner corner of my eye and is easy to wing the outer lashes out to give them a bit of a winged look! I love this mascara and may be bulking up on them soon! 

I hope you guys enjoyed this post! Again I'm sorry for not posting recently but I shall be back to posting again every week now! Make sure you stay tuned for a little DIY and the MAC Rebel and Sugar Plum Fairy dupe post! 

Take care
