FIRST IMPRESSIONS | Zoeva Luxe Complete Brush Set

I know, I haven't posted in such a long time you've probably forgotten I exist but grab yourself a cuppa because my return post is going to be a big one!  As I'm off to Makeup school in March I 'had' to get a new set of brushes solely for my kit, I have a large collection of brushes that I use for myself but I needed something really great to use on my clients and students at the school. I decided to hop on the Zoeva bandwagon as I've heard great things about all of their brushes bar the rose gold set, apparently they tarnish, they have a huge selection of brushes and they're affordable so I chose the Luxe Complete Brush Set, this set cost £94.95, now personally on my 14 hour a week wages that's a lot of money but I think it's great value.

Makeup Revolution | First Impressions

Well hello again, it's been a little while eh... Apologies, I've had a few personal problems but I'm getting back on track, I also apologise for any dodgy photos as my camera lense is still broken so waaah but lets jump right in! I've heard nothing but good things about Makeup Revolution but my local Superdrug doesn't stock it so I've not been able to get my hands on any to see what it's like but the lovely people over at Makeup Revolution sent me a package to have a look at. Firstly I like the packaging of all these products a lot, black and gold is definitely my thing. I received the Ultra Eyeshadows in Flawless* this contains 32 pans of colour and a mix of shimmer and matte shades however there are more shimmer but the shimmer isn't chunky. There's not a shade in this palette I won't use as it's got some amazing goldy bronzes and cranberry tones for the fast approaching Autumn. This gorgeous palette is £8, that's a freaking amazing price as these are so so lovely.

Real Techniques | Retractable Bronzer & Blush Brush

Real Techniques Retractable Bronzer Brush £12.99 & Blush Brush £9.99

Slightly muddled post coming up, I thought I'd share an offer with you and just generally a first impressions kinda thing instead of a 'review' 

Scouring the Superdrug shelves I saw that the Real Techniques brushes are currently on a buy one get one half price offer so I felt I needed to get the missing few for my collection I really wanted the Real Techniques retractable kabuki but they didn't have it or even a place on the shelves for one so I'll have to make my collection complete another day, le sigh.

MAC | Maleficent Collection.

I know this has been in the works for a while now but After the third trailer was released on the 18th of March for Disney's Maleficent I thought it would be fitting to post a first look at the MAC Maleficent range. Inspired by Angelina Jolie and not the cartoon version so it's much more grown up and not at all like the 1959 mistress of all evil, I'm itching to see if I'm lucky enough to grab some but I won't hold my breath!
