(Mac Rebel Dupe!) Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick

Being the lipstick addict that I am I have been dying to try out Rimmel's new Moisture Renew lipsticks. Having dry lips is a lipstick lovers worst nightmare, whenever I wear lipstick a couple hours later my lips feel like they've left me and gone to a desert. So moisturising lipsticks are something that always interest me. 

Although no lipstick is ever going to be as moisturising as a lip balm, Rimmel's Moisture Renew lipsticks definitely come close, if you were ever to make a lipstick out of butter I imagine these are what that would feel like. It is the softest lipstick I've ever applied! However that does mean you can end up with slightly clown looking lips if your not careful when applying it, I'd definitely recommend a lip liner before applying these lipsticks.

They have an amazing range of colours but there was one that was calling to me, once I got home I realised why! The colour I picked up was Dark Knight Water-oops! and if you read my last post you'll have seen I recently purchased Mac's Rebel lipstick in a Mac haul, these two colours are almost identical, they were so similar I couldn't wait to share!

MAC Rebel £15

Rimmel Moisture Renew Dark Knight Water-oops £6.49

 As you can see these lipsticks are almost identical, being a moisturising lipsticks Dark Knight Water-oops has more of a shine to it than Mac's Rebel and it is slightly darker in colour but these are slight differences and the colour is gorgeous in it's own right! I love both these lipsticks but if your on a budget Dark Knight Water-oops is a great lipstick to get your hands on.

Get it at Boots or Superdrug for £6.49

Zoeva Haul & MAC Dupes!

Hey guys,

I have recently been looking to expand my kit brush collection as currently I have one set of brushes that I use on myself and clients(washing in-between obviously), however I'm sure many of you agree that washing make up brushes constantly is one hell of a chore! So I decided to have my own personal brushes that I use on myself daily and another set that I keep in my kit for clients. So when payday came I started looking around for some new eye brushes starting at MAC and various other high end brands but after choosing even a couple staple brushes I was looking at a very big bill. So I started doing a bit more research and came across Zoeva, which I think is a German brand (correct me if I'm wrong). The site was very easy to navigate and it didn’t take me long to find exactly what I was looking for! All the brushes were very reasonably priced, everything was priced in Euros and it wasn't until I actually went to pay for the items using PayPal that I was told the amount in Pounds but that wasn’t an issue for me as I knew that whatever it was in Euros it would be cheaper in Pounds! So I chose the eye set which at 33 EUR for 7 kit essential brushes in my opinion was a complete bargain! 

This is how they arrived, the package also contained a free brush cleaner which was a nice extra I haven't tried it out yet though. I placed my order on a Friday, the brushes arrived the following Tuesday. The price including shipping came to 40.50 EUR which was about £36. These brushes are so soft and feel just as good (maybe even better) as any MAC or other high end brands that you would be paying fortunes for just a single brush. I personally think that almost all of these brushes could be dupes for some of MAC's most popular brushes at only a fraction of the price!
