Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish

I have been using this cleanser for a couple of months and am delighted with the results. The product is a cleanser that comes with a muslin cloth that exfoliates the skin. There is a noticeable difference as my spots have almost disappeared and my skin is softer. The price is also reasonable compared to the other beauty brand cleansers and I will definitely be purchasing this again. 

YSL Singular Mascara

My latest makeup purchase. I love this mascara and give it a thumbs up. It gives noticeable volume, length and separation. Some people have said they don't like the wand but I've had absolutely no problem with it. It lasts all day and does't smudge and definitely beats the Benefit Bad Gal Lash mascara that I was using before. 

Clinique Pink Chocolate

                                                                                      These are the first Clinique eyeshadows I have tried. I have to say I really like this palette. The colours go great with my brown eyes, but I do find I use the two darker colours more than the lighter pinky colours. They blend well and give a subtle look with a hint of colour. 

Review of Suqqu Eyeliner

Suqqu Eyeliner Creamy

Suqqu is a Japanese makeup brand, relatively unknown in the UK, only being available at Selfridges in Birmingham and London. I decided to purchase their cream eyeliner in Black after testing it out at their makeup counter in Selfridges.

I was impressed at the beginning. Firstly, the eyeliner comes in a little frosted glass pot which looks very sophisticated. Regarding the eyeliner itself - I loved the smooth texture, it had great staying power and it did not smudge – which I found a major problem with all my previous ones.

However, this product soon started drying out and you had to dig deep to get to the creamy consistency. It dried very quickly on the lid and sometimes crumbled when applying it, resulting in a distorted line. The product would be great if the cream was smoother and the colour was richer. The product also came with an applicator; however, I found that this is not great for fine lines and also dried out from the product.

Overall, I think this eyeliner is worth a try if you do want a no-smudge eyeliner but only if you can afford the pricey £22, otherwise it’s not worth your money.

"What becomes of the broken-hearted? They buy shoes."

Forget about that guy and indulge in some new shoes - like I did. I thought these shoes would be perfect for a birthday celebration next weekend. They’re in fashion, edgy and inexpensive.

I love the detail of the buckle and the studs on the back. The cuff is secured with Velcro so perfectly fits your ankle. What do you think?
