MAKEUP REVOLUTION LONDON HAUL
For Christmas my sisters asked for make-up and specifically eye-shadow and lipstick. I spent 2-3 days researching on make-up brands and products. I don't wear much make-up unless I'm going out and all I have in my make up bag is pressed powder foundation, black eyeliner and a red lipstick, its sad I know, but after much research I thought I'd try out makeup revolution London because I heard so much good reviews via youtube and its so affordable especially with their weekly deals.
Makeup Revolution was started in 2014 which makes it vary new but they have alot of good reviews and have been compared to high end make up brands.
This is what I bought from make-up revolution:
This is my first haul and I was so pleased with how everything came in. I was like a kid in a sweet shop! I couldn't test out every item as some of them was gifts and as you can see there are duplicate of some because I liked it so much I had to get one for myself.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pallets and got myself the Fast Love pallet
The packaging is very simple and the fuschia font just stands out from the black making it very clean looking.
This pallet contains 10 Mattes and 22 shimmers.
This is the I am Sexy Pallet. I bought one as a gift and had to get one for myself because it's so convenient! Its prefect for make-over on the go and fits perfectly in any bag but the most importantly it contains a good sized mirror.
I swatched the pallets and fell in love with the shimmery colours! They would work well with smoky eyes and the lipstick (middle swatch) is so pigmented and in such a beautiful colour.
I bought 4 different lipsticks for myself 2 from the I Heart My Lips range and 2 from the #Liphug collection in the shades (L-R) Rising Pulse, Beating Heart, When you came to me and Saviour will come.
Rising Pulse and When you came to me was very paler than I had expected. Beating Heart was a nice rosey pink colour but it didn't really suit me. My absolute favourite is Saviour will come it looks amazing on and especially during this season. These lipsticks are very creamy and doesn't feel sticky at all.
I also couldn't help myself and bought 2 Vivid Blush Lacquer in the shades Heart(L) and Heat(R).
I absolutely love these blush lacquer! They went on perfectly and all I need was one small squirt as they are so pigmented and it didn't feel sticky or heavy on my face.
I loved what I purchased so far and look forward to making more purchases in the future especially the pallets. I think I'm going to turn into a make up hoarder thanks to MUR! But if you're a beginner at make up like me these are prefect because their not expensive and you'd just fall in love with make up.
