Rimmel Proffesional Eyebrow Pencil

My first post of 2014, I wish everyone a happy New Year and hope your heads aren't feeling too bad from last night. I had a lovely night in with my friends, nothing too extravagant but it was a lot of fun. For the New Year celebration/party i really wanted to look my best so i thought the only thing that was missing in my make up stash was an Eyebrow pencil. Of-course i rushed out to get one on the way buying alot of make up which may have damged my bank...oops.
So i came across this one from Rimmel, as some of you may know Rimmel is a very trusted brand by me so i couldn't have been more pleased when they had one in my shade (001 Dark Brown). However i was estatic when i glanced at the price and it was £2.99.
 
Before we begin into the logistics of eyebrows and such, i just wanted to say my eyebrows have been such a problem for me. As my hair is classed as 'dirty blonde' but my eyebrows are a different story, they are verging on black? So don't be fooled these are my eyebrows.
 
It is a pencil and on the lid it has a little eyebrow brush which has come in useful for wrestling my eyebrows into the desired shape.

 This pencil is easy gliding, without depositing too much colour. Fabulous for me as i didn't want my eyebrows to take over my face.
Even after copious amount of rubbing it held its place without a trace of smudging. It will wear away towards the end of the day though it will not vanish or melt away.

The eyebrow pencil is a good un' especially for those like me, never taken too much interest in the catipillars on my face.

Rimmel Hide the Blemish Concealer

Before i get into the whole review thing, i just want to say i am on holiday right now in Portugal and this week i am doing a sailing course so there will not be as many posts this week only! After this week i will return to normal posts!

Ok so ,As you may (or may not) have noticed i have reviewed another concealer quite recently (collection lasting perfection concealer), but i have also been testing this Rimmel Hide the blemish Concealer.


This concealer is priced at £4.49 from Boots, the cheapest you can get it is £1.99!

This concealer is very creamy, and when i say creamy believe me it is creamy!
I tested this under my eyes and i did not feel like it set properly. Even after a couple of hours it still did not feel completely dry! It creased under my eyes as well (this was without primer for a fair test), which is not a very good look
Also it did wear throughout the day so it not full day coverage, i would recommend reapplying this at least 2 times a day.

It applies like a lipstick, which means you have to build the coverage up quite alot.

Overall this is an 'ok' concealer, i personally would not recommend this!

Handbag Fashion!

 
I was wearing one of my favourite bags today while walking around london and saw how many people wear these bags differently! So i just thought i would share some of the ways i wear this bag. I think it looks amazing with a flowy top, bangles and jeans or leggings :).
This bag is from Primark and i love it, it was around £12! Bargain!
