I hope you are all having a great week & you have been enjoying the weather?
It is so typical that come the weekend it decides to be abit grey, gloomy & rain though doesn't it.
It really is always the way but never mind least I still get some time to myself & chill that's the main thing.
Recently I have been trying out a new make up brand which I haven't ever tried before. Most of my make up I purchase is high street brands simply because I feel like there are some really great quality high street brands on the market which means you don't have to pay crazy money for make up. I love going to like Superdrug or boots because I always come out with a selection of different make up products! It really is true you cannot come out of there with just one thing.
B make up has just returned to the market. It has been reformulated & the packaging has been changed to give it a fab new update. B make up are exclusive to one of my favourite stores on the high street Superdrug. They are 100% vegan & cruelty free! I could not get over the huge range of make up that they have to offer! Whether its foundation, primer, lip colours, eye shadows, pigments, anything you name it they have it in their new ranges.They have even teamed up with celebrity make up artist Cassie Lomas to create a range. Which contain an amazing illuminator, & other products!
The bits I have had to try are quite a lot of different products so I thought what a better way than to show you by doing like a haul of them.
Colour Correcting Flawless Duo Concealer - £6.99
The flawless duo concealer comes in a little compact perfect for carrying around in your bag with you on the go. The concealer helps to conceal & correct the appearance of imperfections & even out skin tones. I got the colour correcting duo version as I have not got a colour correcting concealer.
Purple - Is used to brighten up a dull complexion. It is great for cancelling out any yellow under tones.
Green - Is used to help neutralise any spots or discolouration to the skin. It is best used as a little amount & not caked on. I do also find it best to apply a natural skin colour concealer over the top after too.
The texture of the concealer is not too thick & cake like on your
skin. I don't like really heavy products on my skin especially when it comes to products like concealers or foundations. So I found this one great!
Sculpt & Highlight Contour Kit - £8.99
Like the colour correcting duo concealer this is another perfect size compact which is handy to carry around with you. The kit comes in both Light/Medium or Medium/Dark. I absolutely love the whole contour & highlight process. It can make a face shape change & look great instantly. This kit is a powder texture which I find nice & light. It's a great way of defining & highlighting your features of your face. The highlight is a gorgeous shimmery shade! I am such a sucker for a good highlighter.
Illuminating Radiance Pen (Nude) - £7.99
This pen is like my new go to product! I love it.
It helps to add radiance to your skin in one instance. It is such a lightweight formula product which is easy to apply, it helps to cover dark circles, even skin tone & can also be used to help highlight areas of the face if you want to aswell. It gives you skin an instant glowy, dewy look. It has a brush effect tip aswell which makes it nice & easy to apply. Such a great retouch make up product to have while you are on the go.
Lip Corrector - £4.99
This is a product I have never really tried before. It helps to refine the shape of your lips & to also avoid lipstick bleeding. It can also be used to conceal imperfections. So if you are looking for a product to help define your lip shape more this is perfect for you. It comes in a retractable pen like casing which is easy to wind up & dow & apply. I haven't used this product as much as the others yet.
I always used to be a sucker for the Beverley Hills Anastasia brow pomade. But after a while other brands started to bring out there own version at half the price. Which I found just as good. To me having a good brow is a must have. This brow cream helps to create the perfect brow. It is a smudge resistant formula which helps define your brows which allows you to fill in sparse areas. It lasts all day so you don't have to worry about reapplying it.
Pigment (Indiego) - £4.99
They have several different uses. You can use them for an eye shadow colour to create a shimmery look, you can mix them with an illuminator to make a creamy style highlighter, or you can add a drop of water to them & create a liquid eyeliner. They have so many great uses! I have only ever really used them for a eye colour but I will definitely try some of the other uses for them. The shade Indiego is a perfect kind of shade for creating a smoky eye effect. It's a gorgeous grey, silvery shimmery colour.
The velvet matte lipstick come in 12 gorgeous shades. So whatever kind of colour you like there is something for everyone. They contain Shea Butter which leave your lips feeling soft. I normally find that Matte lipsticks tend to dry my lips out & leave them looking kind of chapped but these leave them feeling hydrated. They are such a lovely formula! The shades I got are:
Jinxed - A brown pinkish tint colour
Frow - A deep pink with brown undertones
Oohlala - A pale nude kind of shade which looks almost glossy
Left: oohlala
Middle jinxed

The velvet matte liquid lips come in 8 different shades. So like the lipsticks there is a shade for everyone! Some glosses I find to be pretty sticky but these are non sticky, non drying texture. So it leaves your lips feeling soft & smooth. They are also leave a long lasting colour. The shades I got are:
In the buff - Brown nudey kind of colour
1995 - A dark brown shade perfect for the autumn/winter
Lulu - A vibrant pink shade

Then from the Cassie Lomas collection:
Sheer Liquid Illuminator - £9.99
Illuminator is the best product to make your skin look more dewy or glowing. It can make such a difference to your appearance of your skin. You can apply it all over your skin first before applying foundation, or you can wear it on its own, or add it to your foundation & apply it all over your face at the same time just to give your skin that healthy glow. There are so many different ways to wear it & apply it. This one from B make up also comes with like a pump built in to the packaging to make it easier to apply & make sure you don't get too much wastage.
Whipped Bronzer - £8.99
A decent bronzer is always my go to in the summer or when I have a decent tan to me. It helps to give you that more sun kissed look, can help define the shape of your face too. This bronzer is great because it is a light texture it is light wear to wear. You can use the bronzer to contour, add definition to the eyes by applying a small amount of bronzer to the lower lid & blend into the socket of the eye. You can also apply it lightly all over the face to give it that sun kissed glow.
Pigment - Super model Sheen - £4.99
I have quite a few different pigments from Mac & also make up revolution pigments. They have several different uses. You can use them for an eye shadow colour to create a shimmery look, you can mix them with an illuminator to make a creamy style highlighter, or you can add a drop of water to them & create a liquid eyeliner. They have so many great uses! I have only ever really used them for a eye colour but I will definitely try some of the other uses for them. The shade Super Model sheen is a gorgeous shimmery pink kind of tone. The colour is so pigmented I love it! There are 3 other lovely colours in this Cassie Lomas pigments too. It is such a great product to build up & use.
I have to say the quality of the B make up products are amazing. I cannot get over the amount of products they offer, the quality & also the number of shades they do. They really do something for everyone & not to mention the price. They are such an affordable brand. I have to say these could become one of my favourites high street make up brands!
I definitely recommend checking them out in your nearest Superdrug or online. All the product description headings are linked to the products on the Superdrug website just to make you life easier in finding them :)
Take care

The bronzer and sheer illuminator look so great! I'd love to try them :) xo, Suzanne
ReplyDeleteI really loved reading about all of these different products from the reformulated B makeup! I never used these color correcters from any brand because they seemed so confusing but you explained them all so well. I definitely need to try the illuminating pen and the lip corrector!
ReplyDeleteI also use some purple and green cream to fix the little coloured spots! It works so good! Love reading about B makeup, hopefully I will get some myself, xx
ReplyDeleteThat whipped bronzer looks fab! Xo
