Hello you beauties!

Welcome to the second post of my brand fortnight! Last time we looked at the NYX products that I loved. Now, it's Rimmel London's turn. Rimmel is probably the first drugstore brand that I ever used and while it is not the best brand out there, it certainly is good if you want something decent for a cheap price.

One of the foundations I use a lot at the moment is the Rimmel Match Perfection foundation and while it is not the best foundation I have ever used (I prefer my Bourjois one most of all), it certainly is great for the price. It offers great coverage for around £8 and doesn't go cake-y or oxidise on your skin.

Before I discovered the Freedom Brow Pomade and Soap and Glory Archery Brow Pencil, I would use the Rimmel eyebrow pencils quite a bit. They weren't the best, especially because I couldn't find a shade that matched my brows perfectly but if used with a delicate hand, then they could be enough just for everyday use. And they're a great bargain for just £3.99!

My staple powder has always been Rimmel's Stay Matte powder as it is a great setting powder. It really does make you look matte and doesn't make your makeup cake-y throughout the day. It's great if you just want a cheap powder too, as they're only £3.99 each.

When I first heard about their Kate Moss lipsticks, I was excited. And the shade range is amazing. They're amazingly pigmented and very creamy. They're easy to apply and don't dry out my lips. I would definitely recommend these lipsticks if you want some on a budget.

Rimmel's lipstick crayons were the first makeup products I ever used and I am honestly so amazed by the quality. I bought them from B&M for only £2.99 each compared to the £8 they'd cost in Superdrug and Boots. Even for £8 they're worth it. They are very pigmented and creamy and last basically all day. These are products that I will always use, even in the future.

So these were my favourite Rimmel products. I'd love to hear what Rimmel products you love too!

I'll be back on Wednesday with another post for you all.

Hello you beauties!

One of my New Year's Resolutions this year is to be more careful with my money. Obviously that didn't start until the 1st. So this New Year's Eve treat is something I really do not feel guilty about. I was actually looking at this before Christmas but it was a whopping £50 back then! Now, when I went, Boots was having a 50% off sale so I managed to buy this beautiful Soap & Glory set for just £25. What a bargain!

I have never really used Soap & Glory products before as they're slightly more expensive than products I usually go for. I have brought their Archery brow tint and pencil before which is a really great product so I was really excited to buy this set and to try out some of the best products that this brand has to offer.

First off, there is a Face Brush and an Eyeshadow Brush which I am excited to add to my makeup brush collection as they are both so soft and seem to be amazing quality. I especially love the eyeshadow brush, as eyeshadow is probably my favourite part of any makeup look so I am always needing new eyeshadow brushes. I love the matte black handles too, I'm just really worried in case I accidentally scratch it one day.

In this set there is also two mini Sexy Mother Pucker lipglosses, one in a baby pink shade called 'Candy Queen' and one in a dark purple pink shade called 'Plums Up'. I've heard many great things about these lipglosses so I was extremely excited to try them. They really do feel like they plump your lips and are not too sticky either. They're not massively pigmented but what else do you expect from lipglosses? They're not supposed to be massively pigmented.

Then there is the Glow All Out Highlighting Powder in the shade 'Shimmer Switch' which I am again so excited about because I love a good highlighter. It is a lovely pink shade, although I really haven't used pink toned highlighters before. I honestly do feel like this would be a brilliant highlighter for everyday use.

There is also the Lid Stuff Eyeshadow Palette which, if I'm completely honest, is probably my least favourite product in this set. Okay yes, I do really like it and I have always wanted to try out their eyeshadows but honestly, I already own eyeshadows that are such similar shades to these and pigmented better than these too. However, I will definitely use them at one point.

Then there is the ever so popular Thick & Fast Mascara which I have heard many great things about again. The brush looks great and looks like it'd give great volume but if I'm completely honest, I haven't tried it out yet. But I really can't wait to.

I was really happy to see the Supercat eyeliner in this set because it's something I've wanted to try for such a long time but never wanted to spend the money on it. The nib is great, and quite flexible too. The eyeliner is VERY black too which is great as it's hard to find eyeliners that are easy to use and look great too. I can't wait to try it out more and use it more regularly than I usually wear eyeliner.

Finally in the set there is the Archery Brow Tint & Precision Shaping Pencil. As I've told you, this is the first and only Soap & Glory product that I've used before and I think it's such a great product. It's probably my go to brow product at the moment. However, as I am naturally blonde, I usually go for the 'Love is Blonde' shade but the one in this set is the shade 'Brownie Points', so I wasn't too sure if this product would actually be much use for me. But after trying it out, as long as I use a steady and gentle hand, then I can get away with this one as it's not the darkest shade the brand offers and my eyebrows are naturally quite dark considering I'm a natural blonde. I am so happy to have another one now, ready for when my current one runs out.

I would definitely recommend that you treat yourself to this little set if you can still get your hands on it anymore, or just treat yourself to any Soap & Glory product because honestly it really is worth the money.

I'll be back on Saturday with another post for you all.
