Collection 2000 Cream Puff.................

Morning everyone!!
Hope you are all having a good day!! Today I am sharing with you a couple of the Collection Cream Puff Lip Creams.

I picked these up after seeing lots of positive reviews of them on blogs, and I have to admit that I'm not disappointed.
I chose the two shades that I thought I would get the most everyday wear from, Cotton Candy and Fairy Cake.

They come with a classic doe foot applicator and apply smooth over the lips, when they are on they don't look dry or cakey at all and feel lovely and comfortable to wear.

I really do enjoy wearing these, they are a product that I have in my handbag for freshen ups as the colour is easy to apply and super long lasting.

I also really enjoy the semi matte finish, they don't make my lips look dull and lifeless, at the same time there is little or no glossiness about them either.

Cotton Candy and Fairy Cake

Have you tried out the cream puffs yet?

What are your thoughts?

Sleek Eau La La liners............

I have talked about these liners so many times that I was sure that I had already posted this post.
I couldn't believe it when I spotted it in my draft box, anyway enough waffling, on with the review.

I decided to try the Eau La La liners after I saw a tutorial by Sam from Pixiwoo on Youtube, Sam did a super hero look and it was just fab. Sam used the Red Eau La La liner on bother her brows and lips, I decided I needed a waterproof liner that was also a multi tasker.

I picked up several of the liners over the next few weeks, I have them in colours that I would wear exclusively on my eyes (Noir, Molasses, and Tonic) as well as in shades that I will use simply as lip liners on a say to day basis.

I am so in love with these liners and today I want to share with the the selection that I have for lips.

L To R

Pumpkin, Melba, Red Sky At Night, Dragon Fruit and Moulin Rouge

I find that these pencils apply smoothly and are very long lasting, Red Sky is my favorite and so very versatile, it works with all sorts of shades from nudes to pinks to peaches. 

My only complaint with these pencils is that the pencil lead can come out of the wooden pencil, It doesn't bother me enough to stop me buying them but it is frustrating sometimes.

I think for £4.99 these pencils are really lovely quality and come in so many shades that there is something for everyone.

You can either pick them up in your local Superdrug or order direct from Sleek.

Have you tried any of these liners?

What are your favorites?

Gosh Holographic is BACKKKKKKKKKKKK....

If you follow me on Instagram ( MariaSparkle19) you will of seen that I recently picked up the much talked about and loved Gosh Holographic polish.

I had the original from Gosh and although I liked the polish I found that it chipped within hours and was a bit of a pain to apply. 

When I heard that Gosh had reformulated and relaunched the much hyped and talked about Polish, I knew that I would like to give it another go. I didnt think that I would be able to tho as I really didnt think that my Superdrug would get it in.

I WAS WRONG!!!!

Last week while browsing I spotted one lonely bottle of the polish on the stand, it was ment to come home with me!!!! lol.

And hey presto, here is the lovely polish in all its glory.

Im so impressed with the polish, it applies much better and I had this on my nails for 3 days with NO WEAR!!! 

I'm so impressed and pleased that I was able to pick it up. If you see the polish I highly recommend that you give it ago.

Holo in this weather is hideously hard to photo, the above pics are from my instagram and the best I got, take my word for it, this polish is STUNNING!!!

Have you managed to pick up a bottle of this polish?

What do you think of it 2nd time round?

MAC's Pressed Pigments........

I haven't seen very much in either the press or on blogs about the Pressed Pigments from MAC..

From the little that I have heard people can either take them or leave them.

Having picked one up, I am definitely in love with these little pans of sparkly heaven!!

The main complaint that I have heard is about the fall out, this for me isn't a deal breaker, using loose pigments always results in fall out for me any way.

I chose the shade Day Gleam, its a stunning golden shade with soft glitter and sparkle running throughout.

If you look at the website, MAC has provided 6 Limited edition shades, each matching to one of there standard range of foundations. 

Day Gleam is NC30.

They also explain that these lil pots can be used both dry for a sheer shine or wet for a more dramatic finish.

Mac also suggests that these are highlighters, I personally am going to be using mine as a shadow. 

The only down side is that you get just 3g of product and at £16.50 they are a little on the steep side price wise when you think that for the MSF in Soft & Gentle you get 10g for £21.50, three times the amount for just £5.00 more.

Price and fall out aside, I am really enjoying this product, I may even check out some of the other shades..... hehehe.

They are available both instore and On line.

Have you tried these?

What do you think?
