Products I Can't Live Without | Bronzers


I think I started using bronzer when I was about 15...ish...

Probably ending up with a look that was not becoming, especially teamed with my favourite blue lipstick (it was the fashion then ok...)

In recent years, as contouring has become more and more popular I use mine for various things.

Contouring, Bronzing and even eyeshadow!

Bourjois Chocolate Bronzer

I'm pretty sure this is a staple in most make up lovers make up bags, not just mine. This is the perfect shade for majority of skin tones and looks like a chocolate bar.

It's matte and slightly smells of chocolate which is obviously a massive plus point!

It's perfect for bronzing when you don't want shimmer, and just as good for contouring too.

I have taken this with me to use as a triple threat before to save space:

  • Bronzer
  • Contour
  • Eyeshadow
To use as eyeshadow I usually just use my finger and then blend with a fluffy brush into the crease. To be honest, I am guilty of using loads of my bronzers for this when I'm short of time or when I'm away from home. 

It retails for £7.99.

No.7 Match Made Bronzer

This was a present from my Auntie last Christmas and I love it!

Again I use this as a Triple Threat.

It comes with a handy mirror too, which is great when you are out and about. I generally use this more for contouring than bronzing. 

It is also a matte bronzer and is in the shade Maple.

It retails for £12.50

Younique Beachfront Bronzer

This bronzer is great having a matte side as well as a shimmer side so you are able to mix and match as and when you want.

This is in the shade Sunset, and as you can see, I need to repurchase rather rapidly, especially with summer approaching.

I love to use the matte side to contour and then the shimmer on top of my cheek bones to give that summer shimmery look. 

It retails for £25.

High Street Eye Liners | On A Budget


I've compiled a list of my favourite high street eyeliners at the minute for you all!



Gel Liner

I used to love using Gel liners and haven't used any in a while. I asked Jack to pick me some bits up last weekend as we were going out and he did very well in choosing this.



It's the Rimmel Gel Liner and is only £7.99 which is a bargain.

These Gel Liners last for ages and once you get the knack, are super easy to apply.

I love that they stay on for ages, so are great for a day out or for a night on the town!

It comes with a brush but I actually find it easier to use the Real Techniques Silicone Liner Brush, but each to their own.


No.7 Liquid Liner

This was a back of the drawer review find!



I have a drawer crammed with new products to review and had a look through the other day as I wanted a liquid liner and couldn't find any of my others.

It is a super easy nib to use and gives a nice line, great for a cat eye or winged eye look.

Costing just £8.50 its a great price.

Collection Extreme Pen Liquid Liner

This is one of my all time faves. 



I purchased this a while back and this is my 2nd or 3rd re-purchase. 

It is just £2.99 and is so easy to use. I love it. It is definitely a staple for any girls make up bag!

For under £3 you can't go wrong really. This would be great for anyone who is afraid of liquid liner to practise with too. 



Rimmel Scandaleyes Pencil Liner

This is super cheap and is one of the best pencil liners I have used in a while.



It's really pigmented and doesn't drag on your eye, even if using it on the lid... as long as you remember to sharpen it obviously!

At only £3.99 it's great for anyone on a budget too.


What are you favourite high street eye liners?

Much Love,

Tk
