KIKO COSMETICS! ♥

Good evening beauty's ♥

I'm SO excited about this one !!! 

I wanted to introduce you to this beauty. If you haven't heard of Kiko before,

Kiko Cosmetics, is an Italian professional make-up range. I love the fact that this brand is all about new cutting edge technology and the latest fashion trends. I have only a small selection of make-up to introduce you to, but Kiko offer a large variety of products for all different skin types, a massive array of colours, tones and textures.

This really is a luxury brand, but the most amazing news is: IT IS SUPER CHEAP! So your probably thinking, why is it so cheap!? Just go with me. Put it this way I bought 4 products and it came to £24.90, imagine how much  4 things in MAC would be. I was so excited to try and got bit carried away!!

 I bought  a colour sphere eye shadow in shade 04, Golden bronze special FX,this is highly pigmented  even when swatched on your hand and I cannot wait to try it! £5.90!!! 

 A beautiful luscious cream lipstick in shade 506, Misty rose. This lipstick is super creamy and feels lovely and light on your lip, it also promises to be long lasting, I have had one of these lipsticks before and they have amazing staying power, even when you feel like it's all rubbed off, its still got your back. KIKO's lipsticks are made in the same factory as MAC, they both have the same sweet scent, £6.90

 A gorgeous super gloss in shade 112, a gorgeous glitzy number,£4.90.  This is an Ultra shiny moisturising gloss that comes in 28 shades, santa please?! 

 Last but not least ultra tech mascara, I just LOVEE the brush on this mascara it's super fine to coat every single tiny lash. With two types of bristles it promises thickness, fullness, separation and definition! wowzers ! £7.20

Stay tuned for pictures of these products on! 

Have you tried any KIKO products? Did you know about them?

New Look Pure Colour makeup

 NEW LOOK PURE COLOUR:
Recently I have been trying out some of the makeup from the New Look Pure Colour range. 
Here are some reviews on the products I have tried.

Highlighting Stick in shade 93/Pure Gold.

 

This product is dreamy! You can see from the photo that it is packed with super sparkly pigment. It has a creamy texture and is really easy to use as it on a roller stick. It spreads nicely and you can use it where ever you like! This was £5.99 and worth every penny!

Baked Eyeshadow.

Wow! I really recommend looking at these eyeshadows because even though they didn't have a huge range (only 5 shades) they were all very lovely shades and all wearable for the day or night.Baked for long lasting colour, this product is also super shimmery! It looks amazing on and really brings out your eye colour. You can use this wet or dry to increase the intensity of it. It is £3.99 and I've had mine for a couple of months now, you don't need much as its super shiny!

Lip liner in Dark Purple.

 A lip liner for £1.99!!? Yes please! Dare I say it this eyeliner is better than MAC! It has  a soft point for easy application and has such a long lasting colour I only had to reapply a couple of times a day! It also comes of nicely with no staining. The colour is very similar to my MAC burgundy pencil and for £1.99 It's a lot cheaper! 


Liquid Eye Liner in Black.


So i needed a new eye liner and thought I would give this one a try. The colour is really intense black which I love as I hate black liquid eyeliners that dry greyish. It is water resistant and stays put all day. It dry's super fast and not once has it gone above my eyelid, you know how it does when you open your eye to early!! girl probs! The brush is slanted for easy application and this one comes in at £3.99. STEAL. 

I notice when I go online a lot of the products are sold out, so ID recommend visiting a larger store and seeing if they have the products in store. I'm not surprised its flying off the shelves, its brilliant!  Have you tried any of there products?

Halloween outfit ideas

HALLOWEEN OUTFIT IDEAS!

oooh yay my absolute favourite time of the year! I LOVE dressing up, It's so exciting! (BIG KID!) I Thought I would post last years outfits I wore incase you were looking for some inspiration. Me & my boyfriend went to two parties as 'couple costumes' if you like.

The first costume was Mr & Mrs. Bones!  I took my inspiration from some lovely costumes that I saw online for some crazzyyy prices! 

For both of these you will need: fake blood

                         white face paint

                         red lipstick (optional)

                         something to do the black with, eyeliner, black                          

                                      face paint etc.

                         black clothing

FOR MRS BONES: I dug out an old dancing costume out of my wardrobe that I had worn for a previous show when I was younger which was perfect for this outfit! obviously, you guys might not have this so a black tutu and a black vest top is perfect! you could even draw on some bones with tippex or paint? This dancing dress has a black tutu attached to it which was perfect. I wore it with black tights and black boots.

The face makeup was me guessing really! I painted one side of my face completly white and left that to dry, I then made the one side of my eye, nose and cheek black and left to set. Next was the mouth, I wanted it to look zippiest so i drew black lines from my just above my top lip to just below my bottom lip! Go wild, draw a black line somewhere and smudge it out, it all looks good in the end! Then obviously the other side of your face is normal! foundation blush and a bit of red lippy! 

MR. BONES: For Mr. Bones, my boyfriend Jacob wore a white shirt, black suit trousers and a white bow tie, thinking about it he should have worn a black one but hey ho! How come boys get it so easily!  Throw on a suit and you can be anyone! 

The makeup was the same as mine minus the red lipstick! ;)

ZOMBIE DOCTOR AND NURSE!

For the next party we went as a Zombie doctor and Nurse. This one was fun!

Zombie Nurse: I bought this outfit from Amazon!Its only £12 something and It comes ready blood splattered complete with dress,apron and headpiece! I will put the link below,  I bought some bloody tights from the girls section in ASDA. I then found a nurse play kit in the poundshop which is where i got the stethoscope from.

The makeup: For this I wanted to keep my face a little more 'normal'. I did my normal everyday makeup, I then  made wounds out of tissue and stuck them on with eyelash glue, then goured them up with skin coloured makeup then added some blood, they looked pretty realistic! I also bought some tattoo's from eBay, in the shape of gashes and wounds, they were fab and only cost a couple of pounds, infact i still have some left for this year!

Zombie Doctor: This  one was fun! I bought some surgical scrubs from eBay for about £6 and then we blooded them ourselves with fake blood! We hung it on the line outside and splattered it all over it, smearing our hands over it and all sorts,  The set included top,trousers and a mask! I bought some gloves home from work and applied some blood to those also.

The makeup: I applied some black eyeshadow to his head to appear 'bruised' and some red blood in his eyebrows and cheeks. We then backcombed all his hair and thew some talc in it, this helped to give the mysterious look as it turned it white! was a bugger to get out though,haha. I certainly wouldn't want him operating on me would you?!

Bargain Shirt dress

So I was in Birmingham yesterday and I made a quick swing by In Primark! I picked up this shirt dress for a mere £13.00! It's so easy to wear and you can dress it up or down, Jeans or leggings, tucked or untucked! I got it for work as we are only allowed to wear black and white!( boring!) I Like to try and wear exciting things as it can be so boring wearing all black.

No7 Dramatic Lash - My First Impressions

N07 DRAMATIC LASH MASCARA  ♡

It was that time again! When your mascara is dry and no matter how much you pump it nothing comes out. It was time for a change, I always buy the same mascara. Seventeen's Dolled up in Black. I headed to boots as I was on holiday in Salcombe and there wasn't many shops, they had this mascara on an introductory offer for £10. price will be £13.50 on 05.08.2015. You also get 40 boots advantage boots when you buy this, not bad!


Im quite the fussy one when it comes to mascaras as I like the brushes to be quite separated so I checked the brush in store and I liked what I saw. I can't see how these ball shaped mascaras can separate your lashes, if anything they'd clump! (my pet hate!- spiders legs!)


IT`S PROMISE:

Want ultimate lift and hold for a super wide-awake look?

Inspired by haircare, No7 Dramatic Lift Mascara contains flexible polymers and Keratin to help boost lash from root to tip.

The curved brush helps to capture all lashes and push them upwards, No7 Dramatic Lift Mascara is proven to lift lashes by 70%.

Picking Your Perfect Mascara

Wand Style- A curved styling brush that fits perfectly in to the roots of the lashes to help lift each individual lash to create the ultimate wide awake look.

Finished Look- Lashes are lifted by 70% and are boosted from root to tip.

REVIEW

From first use, I was blown away!! I didn't really believe it would lift lashes by 70% like it says, but wow! What a difference! Pushes lashes up from the root, with full lash coverage, making my eyelashes look longer and fuller than ever! Even in this heat there is no crumbly bits falling off or any smudges☂ It deffinately gives the look of a good nights rest with the wide awake look it gives. I like to curl my eyelashes after I have put mascara on to really get them curling up and with this mascara they look amazing! 

★ full on magic☆

my new favourite mascara, have you tried it?

Last minute things for holiday!

HOLIDAY 

So I'm off to lanzarote tomorrow and I wanted to hit the shops in case of some last minute beauty's! That's exactly what I found, check out some of the things I grabbed and where there from for some inspiration for your holiday! 

I bagged these shorts in H&M for a mere £14.99! Bargain or what!? They are from the Coachella collection that they have in at the moment, I love them and they're just long enough to cover the side where your thighs meet your bum, the bit we all hate! 

I found this little gem in New Look. A white Lacey playsuit. It has the cutest little Pom pom's on the bottom which really makes it look summery! The straps are adjustable and it's not too fitted so that you can still breath! This was £25 from a concession called Parisian ( something) which I thought was a lot but I'm sure it will be worth it.

I'm absolutely loving the off the shoulder tops at the moment and I found one in Primark for £4! Result! I fancied it in white  and black and that price you can have both without breaking the bank. It's super versatile as you can wear it as a normal belly top or slide of the shoulder for a more relaxed look.

Next up is my gorgeous necklace from wait for it.... Primark! It's got four necklaces on one clasp and looks so gorgeous on. This was £4 and well worth every penny, that's like a pound a necklace! Get in! 

I also picked up some gorgeous earrings in Primark as apparently all you need this season is some big chandelier earrings! These were an absolute steal at £2.50 and I will certainly be rocking these all the way to the beach bar!🌴

Also, I've gone for white nails! Although I am hoping they won't fade too much in the sun! 😩will let you know how I get on 

 Happy holidays all! What have you got for your holiday?

 Let me know ! 

Love Fran xx 

Bargain bikini!

💞My bargain bikini!!💞

I don't know about you but I LOVE the triangle bikinis but I am not prepared to pay the price tag that comes with them. £60 is just ridiuclous if you ask me. Even if I had all the money in the world I still don't think I would pay that much for a bikini. (Sorry!) 

That's when I came across this bad boy. It comes in 4 Gorgeous colours, yellow,baby blue, teal and dark pink at just £3.99 and free postage! They're even from England and the postage takes only 2 days! 

I chose the pink one as I think pink looks great with a tan and my holiday is only round the corner. 

I was very sceptical about this bikini because of the price but it is amazing! The quality is very good for £3.99! It's not the thickest material but it isn't see through which is the main thing! It's very comfortable on the skin( not rough).

The clasp at the back is very easy to do and is quite strong so there is no chance of it flinging off. I've had this problem many a time😂

Overall I cannot fault this bikini for the price and I like the fact I can even mix and match the top with different bottoms. I ordered a Medium and I'm usually an 8-10. I can't  wait to get this on! Get me on holiday already!! ✨❤️

So come on girls grab yours here for just £3.99!!! :http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=191593829640  

Happy holidays xxx
