Soap and Glory Kick Ass Concelaer

Soap and Glory Kick Ass Concealer

Three part Concealer Kit

£10.00 Boots

'Soap & Glory™ Kick Ass™ Concealer is a three - piece flaw camouflaging kit that includes an amazing undereye brightening concealer, an 'on the spot' as-you-need-it complexion concealer, and a weightless transparent setting powder.'

I'm a sucker for cute packaging, as are a lot of people.

Soap and Glory has the cutest packaging on the drugstore market

It's mixture of retro with a simple colour pallet of pinks, gold, black and white is used throughout the range

I like the consistency this gives the range, I'm a geek with colour consistency but it bugs me if products don't match in the range.

The product itself is a three piece little concealer kit

Including two cream based products and one powder based

As you open the pot you flip up the top powder layer to get to steps 1 and 2 

The left hand side being step 1 and right hand side being step 2

I've got the kit in shade light as I'm super pale

The cream products have such a smooth consistency and they blend into the skin so effortlessly

Some cream concealers I've tried have been so hard it's hard to even get product out of the container

If I'm in a rush I just use one side and it's fine and good to go

Other days when I want something to last indefinitely I'll use both creams

According to Soap and glory the pinky toned of the two is an eye brightening concealer with PUFFEASE-8 technology, it works really well under the eye area and does have a brightening effect

I don't suffer from puffiness though so I can't comment on that bit

The other half has SUPERWEAR lightscrambling on the spot technology

To me this just means it's got really good coverage which it does

The third stage is the powder to set the concealer

It can feel a bit backward to set the concealer before putting foundation on and then proceeding to set that too so I've tried a few things

Firstly I gave it a go setting before the foundation but found my foundation didn't like mixing with powder

Then I tried just doing the cream products then applying my foundation and setting it all with my normal powder, this worked well but I wasn't benefiting from the actual stage three powder

The process I like the most is to apply foundation, cream concealers, setting powder and the powder concealer on the areas needed.

The powder has an INSTA-FIX technology in it so like I said I wanted to benefit from the powder's ways and have my concealer not budge

I love this concealer and will definitely be repurchasing

I did get this free whilst Boots have their 3 for 2 Autumn offer on but £10.00 doesn't seem too much for a decent product when you look at high end products and how much a mediocre concealer costs

I recently wore this for a 12 hour day at my Grandad's funeral and it held up through lots of crying and tissue dabbing so to me it's a real winner

Have you tried any of the Soap and Glory Make up range?

Look Make Me Blush in 'Flirt'

Look Blusher

Flirt

£8.00

I've wanted to pick up a product from the Look make up range for a while now after seeing it popping up on a few beauty blogs

My local Superdrug has recently had a makeover and now stocks the range, whoop

I behaved myself and only bought the one blusher but was eying up a few lipsticks

The whole range wasn't out yet though so I couldn't have a proper swatching session

I chose the colour Flirt which is a stunning corally pink

It looks quite bright and intimidating in the pan but is gorgeous on

The shade is buildable so your able to sheer it out for a more subtle wash of colour or layer it up for a punch of coral

As you can see in the swatch above there is a slight shimmer/glitter in this shade

It's a shimmer finish rather than matte

The glitter does translate onto the skin but it isn't in your face

Just a subtle shimmer

Over the course of the day this glitter disappears but the colour stays strong

Have you tried anything from the Look range?

I can see the pain behind your eyes, it's been there for quite a while

Lace Blouse ~ Next

Nude Vest ~ New Look

Dark Skinny Jeans ~ New Look

Black Suede Heels ~ Next

Handbag ~ Luella

I wore this for a recent meal out with a few girlfriends.

I felt really comfortable which makes a change as I usually feel a bit bleb and don't go out much (loser I know).

These long vests from New Look are brilliant, their only £6 and go so well under sheer tops, short jumpers or just on their own. I've stocked up, can never find nice, fitted, long vests.

Next Banana Pumps

Nude Sequinned Banana Heeled Pumps

Next

£38

I caved... and I love them

However they kill my feet

Most definitely a sit down dinner kind of shoe

But they are simply gorgeous!

The nude suede makes legs seem that little bit longer, not quite as effective as the nude patent loubs I've got my eye on though

And that little bit of sequinning on the toe bit is just enough to not be tacky but to still add that little something to the shoe

I've worn them for a few drinks but the 10 minute walk to the pub and back was pretty much agony, more so on the way back 

I'll just wear them in ;)

Sleek Blush by 3 in 'Pumpkin'

Blush by 3 Blusher Palette

in 'Pumpkin'

Sleek ~ £10.00

(L-R) P Pie, Squash, Lantern

The colours and names of the three blushers seem so apt for this time of year

I love autumn and all the colours and textures associated with it

In all honesty I meant to pick up the 'Lace' version of this compact and may have to return and purchase it

Three blushers for £10.00 is a bargain in my eyes, around £3.33 for each shade and they are all full sized

Same order as in pan

As with all Sleek products all three blushers are highly pigmented and you don't need much to achieve a good colour

I'm very heavy handed when it comes to applying blusher so use a very very light hand when applying these

I've never used an orange blusher and have to say find it quite intimidating in the pan

'P Pie' is my favourite of the three colours, it's coral in tone and I love corals

My blusher collection is brimming with corals but I stand by the fact they are all slightly different :P

Love

Belle
