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
