Urban Decay Perversion Mascara Review

 Hello Again!
I am back with a review of the Urban Decay Perversion Mascara (€22 on Debenhams). I first got this product when I bought the Urban Decay Naked On The Run palette. I instantly fell in love with the thickness and length it gave my eyelashes. When I ran out of the 6mls, 6 months after purchasing it, I decided it was time to repurchase and get the full size this time. When it arrived I fell in love with the packaging and of course the product itself. This mascara is so smooth with no clumps and you can apply as many coats as you wish without it getting clumpy.
The picture above really does not give the size of the product justice. It is a very thick tube and was definitely much bigger than I thought it was going to be. The full size (12mls) is €22 on Debenhams and the travel size is €10. In my personal opinion the travel size is definitely worth picking up as I thought months was a decent amount of time for a mascara of that size to last.
As you can see below the Mascara not only lengthens but it also thickens the eyelashes leaving a clump free finish. 1 coat should be enough for a natural look but if you like your eyelashes slightly thicker 2 coats would definitely be perfect for you.
This is a mascara I would definitely repurchase over and over again. All of the Urban Decay product I own haven't disappointed me as of yet and I am continually growing to love the brand more and more after a purchase!
Have you tried any UD products? Got any favourites?
Until Monday

Birthday Haul

I'm only getting around to this post now, even though my birthday was almost 2 weeks ago. I had all my posts scheduled  up to now so here we are! Some of the stuff I bought out of the money I was given haven't arrived yet and the shoes my mam got me are on their way now!

From my uncle:
My amazing uncle/godfather gave me a lot of money to spend as I please and I did just that. I have been wanting the Real Techniques Starter Kit after getting the Core Collection a year ago. I have only used the kit once on a night out and I love it and the brushes are so soft. I also picked up a couple of Nyx products, also wanting these since they came to Ireland. I got two of their lipliners because I've never actually owned a lipliner before. I also go their eyebrow kit in Brunette and the Liquid Illuminator. I even have money to spare after buying all this!

From my brother and his girlfriend:
My brother and his girlfriend got me loads! They got me nail art from the P.S Love range in primark, Bows for you hair which I have wanted for ages, ever since I seen Bethany Mota's DIY hair bows and frilly socks... YES FRILLY SOCKS. I cannot wait to wear these because they are so pretty and girly! They also got me the Zoella Fizz Bar, which smells so soapy and sweet and a Vaseline Lip Balm which I had before but I had ran out. The final thing they got me was the brown bag (pictured in the back). I am not quite sure where they got this but I love it.

From my auntie, uncle and cousin:
 My auntie and uncle got me the necklace on the left which has an 'S' on it, for Sarah obviously. They also gave me €50 to spend and I have ordered stuff off of BooHoo which is on the way. My cousin got me a packet of earrings pictured above on the right.

From my nanny and granddad:
My Nanny and Granddad got me and Primark gift voucher with €50 on it and so far I have got two tank tops for €3 each.

From my uncles partner:
 My uncles partner, Pamela got me this gorgeous bag from Forever 21. I'm the type of girl that wears greys, blacks and whites and this bag definitely goes with everything I wear. The second thing is the Lip Smackers!! I have been bringing one to school each day and when I put them on, I have to try not to eat them because they smell divine!!!

Mother:
My mam got me Nike Air Force 1's and they only came this morning and I am in love. I even asked her if it was possible to marry shoes... She said no but I still love them *heart eye emoji*!! 

I love everything I got for my birthday and I can't thank my family enough for everything!

TBlogger Meetup February

I AM VERY LATE WITH THIS POST!!
Sunday, 3 week ago, I had the privilege of meeting 5 amazing bloggers. I already knew Celine from Vintage Teapot as she is a very close friend of mine. I was delighted when Grace from Dainty Sprinkles sent me a message on twitter about the meetup. Of course, I couldn't say no and to only be in the blogging world for under a year it was so nice to be involved.
At first, of course it was awkward, but once we took it in that the pictures we all had online were real and we weren't meeting 50 year olds, (I watch too much Catfish) we settled down for a bite to eat in Eddie Rockets.
Jane and Aveen took out their selfie sticks for a couple of selfies! Of course we got an odd look or two but who cares.

 
 
All above photos credit to Jane

After eating we wandered around a few shops and it was back outside for even more Selfies with Grace's nightmare... The Selfie Stick!
 Again Photo Cred to Jane
3 hours went waaaaaay too quick for my liking, but it was absolutely amazing getting to meet these girls. When it was time to say goodbye it was actually quite upsetting but we planned to meet again once the LC and JC are over and I can't wait!

Janes Photo again!
I actually took one photo..

The Girls
Chloe: Cocobelle
Celine: Vintage Teapot
I cannot wait to meet these girls again. It was a great day and I thoroughly enjoyed every second. Also apologies this post is so late!
Until Monday

Andrea Russett Inspired Eye-Makeup Tutorial

Updated Post HERE!
Andrea Russett, a youtuber from Indiana, has the most incredible eye makeup on the internet(in my opinion)!
Since I started watching Andrea on youtube(link) I have adored her eye makeup and after messing around with some makeup, I thought I would do a tutorial for you guys.
I just want to mention that this is just inspired its not actually how Andrea does her makeup and as she hasnt done a tutorial we don't know how she goes about doing her eyes.
Lets get started!

Step 1:
I prime my eyes using the Maybelline Baby Skin. Honesty, I feel it works better than an Eye Primer.

Step 2:
Using the two lightest colours in my Lovable Luxuries palette(from Primark) I apply them as my base colour going up as far as my crease using the first brush in the picture above. A base colour preps your eyes and makes darker colours apply easier.

Step 3:
Using the angled brush at the far end start outlining the shape of the black eyeshadow. I treat this part as if I was doing a flick as you can see above.

Step 4:
Using the angled brush again I go from the line just made and work my way half way into the crease.

Step 5:

Using the same black and the two pink brushes in the middle fill in the space that was left on the eye previous. 

Step 6:
As you can see in the picture in step 5, the black is quite harsh. So I take my Real Techniques pointed foundation brush to blend it. At this point your eye should look like the above picture.

Step 7:
Add a black pencil eyeliner to your water line and a very thin liquid eyeliner line on your top lash line.

Step 8:
Add a good few coats of mascara to get Andreas long lashes. I use one coat of each mascara pictured above and the Clinique mascara is used on my lower lashes.

Finished:
Add some lipgloss and fix your eyebrows and you've got the Andrea Russett inspired Eye Makeup. This is perfect for Day or Night.

Hope that helps some of ya'll.
See you on Friday!
