W7 Go West! Matte Lipsticks | Review beauty | go west | lipstick | matte | pink candy | pink tease | review | w7 | whenflowersfall

These are a total new favourite of mine!

W7 is known to be a budget make-up brand, but over the years I have really come to love their products. As a great starting point, the packaging for these looks far from cheap. They hold the product well, showcasing the true colour on the bottom, and have even lived through me dropping them a few times.
The Go West! lipsticks are a range of six pink shades. The formula is advertised as matte, but this is really the only thing I disagree with. I'd say they are definitely more on the satin side.
The lipstick feels lovely on the lips, they are super moisturising, and glide on with ease. Unlike your typical matte lipstick, these don't stick to dry patches or creases in your lips. This I love.
I only picked up two of the six shades in the range, but they are both really pigmented and absolutely stunning on. I would love to pick up the remaining four pinks, and would love it even more if W7 would release a wider variety of colours.
Wear wise, these last really well. I find I only have to reapply after eating or drinking, but other than that, they really don't budge very much. Even though the formula is super smooth, they also stay just where you put them and don't bleed.

I purchased mine Fragrance Direct for £2.25 each, but they can be found on many sites if you do a simple google search. I highly recommend them!

Rimmel Kate Matte Lipsticks 101 | 110 | boots | kate | kate moss | lips | lipstick | makeup | matte | orange | pink | red | review | rimmel | swatches | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall

When I heard that Rimmel were bringing out a new range of Kate Moss lipsticks, I knew I had to have a couple. But, when I heard that the new range was entirely matte, I dashed to my nearest Boots right away. 

Luckily for me there was a 3 for 2 offer on, so I ended up picking two of the new range and one shade from the older line. (I'll blog about that one soon.)

First, I picked up shade 101. Surprisingly enough, I don't actually have many soft pinks in my collection and this one caught my attention straight away.

I'd definitely describe this as a soft baby pink with blue undertones. 

The second shade I picked up was 110, a really bold and daring orange red. 

This colour is amazing, but something I wouldn't normally pick out in fear that it would hake my teeth look incredibly yellow. Which, you'll be pleased to know, it doesn't. 

Both lipsticks are ridiculously long wearing. I actually wore shade 110 a lot whilst we were staying in Leeds and I found it even lasted throughout me eating a 3 course meal. It did need a teeny bit of touching up, but if I had left it back at the hotel, it wouldn't have been the end of the world. 

I much prefer a matte lip for the A/W months, and an extra bonus to these lipsticks, is they don't dry out your lips at all. They're actually pretty moisturising.

For £5.49, you cannot go wrong with these lipsticks. I'm now constantly choosing these over any of my others in my pretty large stash. Hopefully I'll be able to get my mitts on the other three shades in the matte collection soon.

Makebelieve Sunbeam Bronzer and Brush beauty | bronzer | brush | competitoon | giveaway | makebelieve | matte | rafflecopter | rave | review | sunbeam | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall

Being a #VIPmakebeliever, I'm lucky enough to try out products for them every now and then.
Last week, they contacted me and asked if I would like to try their bronzer. Of course, being the bronzer lover that I am, I jumped at the chance.

The bronzer and brush set comes in a simple black and gold box which houses a mirror in the lid and a magnetic closing feature. As with the tanning products, I absolutely love the design of the packaging. I do feel that maybe it's a teeny bit big if you are wanting to pop it in your handbag, but other than that I have absolutely no complaints. The magnet is nice and strong, so you can be sure that your bronzer will stay safe if you do decided to carry out with you.

The bronzer itself is soft and matte. There's nothing worse than an over shimmery face. The powder is nice and solid, therefore fallout and excess powder is minimal. It gives a gorgeous glow and does exactly what it says on the box. 

I prefer to use this as a soft contour, but it's also perfect if you want an extra bit of colour on your skin. 

To get the most from this bronzer, try using it with Makebelieve fake tan in zone 3. 

The brush is absolutely incredible. I'm always a little dubious about brushes that come with a product, but this one is so soft!! The brush is the perfect size to contour cheekbones and popping in your bag to take out with you. Usually I would normally forget about these kinds of brushes, but this one will now be a staple in my kit. I love it that much.

Makebelieve have very nicely supplied me with an extra bronzer for one of you guys. So if you fancy your chances of winning, make sure to enter below. Unfortunately the give away is for UK residents only. SORRRYYY.

If not, you can buy the bronzer for £15.00 here.

I feel it's so unfair for my actual followers. If I see that your twitter/facebook acc etc is posting give aways only, I will not be counting your entry!

Happy Sunday Everyone!

Liam and I went for a stroll around a few shops today, so I thought I would give you a little OOTD along with my FOTD today. You can see a little glimpse of my new shoes which I am in love with! I'll be featuring them in a haul as soon as my other bits and bobs arrive. Liam hates them!

I've been feeling really self conscious for the past couple of days, so I'm loving the fact that the sunshine in the middle photo makes me look much skinnier than I am. I've taken up a new workout plan that I'll be sharing with you guys on Friday and fingers crossed by them I can say that I have lost a couple of pounds.
What have you guys been up to this weekend?
