Jaclyn Hill X Morphe - Ring The Alarm eyeshadow palette review

-
Hello everyone,
I have been watching Jaclyn Hill on YouTube for a while now and I love the looks and the reviews she does. So, when I found out that she was releasing her own palettes with Morphe for the second time, I knew I had to have one. I was actually going to purchases one myself. However, it was recently my birthday and I was kindly gifted one from my friends and I absolutely love it.


 I was so excited to try this palette out for you guys and it didn't disappoint. The pigmentation is really good and the shadows blend beautifully on the eye. This palette retails for only £15 in the UK and it definitely looks much more luxurious than the price tag. The general colour theme of the palette is warm tones. There are several red and brown themed shadows which complement each other perfectly.

                             Swatches of from the top row of the palette in natural day light.

                                          Swatches from the top row of the palette with flash on.

The only negative I have for this palette is that some of the shades were patchy. However, on the eyes this wasn't a problem just in the swatches.

 I love the colour selection from this palette and how the shades really do complement one another. It is also very versatile and you can create multiple looks from these 10 shades.

 Swatches from the bottom row of the palette in natural day light. I think you can see the patchiness I described earlier in this photo a bit better.

Colour breakdown -

Row 1 -  Lolli (shimmering peach rosé), Rush (matte amber), On Camera (shimmering tropical gold), Boom (shimmering blushed bronze), Alert (matte deep ochre)
Row 2 - Bomb Ass (gleaming hibiscus pink), Siren (shimmering plum), Mugshot (matte toasted almond), Framed (matte deep plum), Secret (matte roasted chestnut)

This palette is one of my favourites I have tried in a while and that is a bold statement. I think Jaclyn and Morphe have done a great job with this palette and I can't wait to try more.

Thank you for reading,
Sadie xoxo

Max Factor lip kit - review

Hi guys, Today I thought I'd do a review on an item I randomly came across whilst looking around the boots makeup stands. I was actually pretty excited when I saw that max factor had released there own take on lip kits. They had so many different colour options, not going to lie it was pretty overwhelming, I didn't know where to start, but the main thing that struck me about theses lip kits, was that they included a balm to lock in moisture, as there is nothing worse than having dry lips. I thought this was such a genius idea, and as a result I really wanted to test them out and let you guys know my thoughts and opinion on the Max Factor lip kits. - Max Factor lipfinity lip kit: spiritual 180 Not only is the colour beautiful, but the staying power and finish that this lip kit gives is amazing. The balm that comes with the liquid lipstick, is very moisturising and leaves the lips feeling really soft. As far as I've been aware, there is virtually no transfer with t

Testing Barry M!

Hello everyone, It was recently my birthday and I received some Barry M products. I have tried a few things from Barry M before, but it was a long time ago. So I thought I would do a review on the products I received to refresh my own memory and to see if Barry M is any good. On first impressions I really liked the packaging, it’s both unique and pretty yet functional. Barry M Unicorn primer drops - The unicorn primer drops really intrigued me I hadn’t tried anything like that before and I was pleasantly surprised. When I applied the drops they smelt like exotic fruits which I really like and they made my skin feel refreshed and a little tacky to help the makeup go on and stay put much nicer. Barry M Holographic lip topper - I have used the Barry m holographic lip topper a few times now and I really like it. Some holographic products are too holographic to even wear and look nice. However, this lip topper is just the right balance of holographic which I really like. It me
