Makeup Revolution have not set a foot wrong with their releases since they launched in 2014. They've gone from strength to strength, taking on high end brands in formulation and most of all price. Their New-trals vs Neutrals Palette, released just in time for autumn is packed full of beautiful matte and shimmer shadows. Ranging from neutral lid colours to very wearable coppery red shades. Along the top row the colours go from neutral to copper, to reddish brown. On the row below, you have more browns and neutral shimmers. There is only 2 mattes on the bottom row and 5 along the top. Meaning this has everything you could need to create a warm smokey eye. These are also beautiful worn alone, or with a crease colour. Perfect!



Since I came across Makeup Revolution, I have loved all their shadow offerings. This one blew me out of the park though. I ended up ordering it online, as it had yet to make it into my local Superdrug.

The packaging is definitely more than you would expect from £6.99, as the rose gold writing gives more of a luxurious feel to it. But for me, it doesn't matter so much about the exterior, because the product speaks for itself.

The shadows themselves, as with all Revolution formula's, are buttery soft with a amazing amount of pigmentation. The only one I would say gave a little fallout when applying is Strong. I had absolutely no problems with any of the others in this palette. In fact, I wore this everyday throughout October. The possibilities are endless! One of my fave looks, is to use trend blended into the crease, adding a  bit of Adapt in the socket, then using Partial or Suit all over the lid. It's bootiful I tell ya, bootiful!

My collection, was definitely missing some warm colours. I am so glad I picked this up! Makeup Revolution generally have some kind of offer on their website. I would recommend holding out for a £10 off or something like that. It makes their products an absolute steal!



Even if you don't like these particular colours, they have such an extensive range of products now, your sure to find something that floats your boat! I'm not sure if they are in store yet, but as I said, I would wait for some discount and go all out. (Don't listen to me, I'm the worst influence ever!) It's available here from the Makeup Revolution website for £6.99.

Have you tried this palette? What did you think? What are your go-to looks from this palette?

Thank you for reading beauties!

I recently visited Dubai and stocked up on as many as I could fit in my luggage. I ended up picking 3 of their large 3 wick candles and one of their small ones, just to be on the safe side. Bath and Bodyworks are well known for their offers on their products. It's how they suck you in and get you to buy 3 large candles instead of just 1. I think the offer I had was buy 2 get 1 free, or something along those lines.



Salted Caramel is exactly what it says on the tin. It's caramel, but not quite as sweet. I would say that this probably isn't for you if your not a fan of sweet scents, as this does pack a punch when burned. It reminds me of popcorn...

Vanilla Bean is one of the sweetest, cleanest vanilla candles I have ever come across. Like the truest representation of a vanilla bean thrown together with heaps of sugar. I am a massive fan of anything vanilla, so this one was a no brainer.




Dark Kiss is different from the other ones I picked up. It has a musky smell, but also smells like flowers. Not  how you would imagine pretty pink roses to smell. More like deep purple almost black flowers. If you can imagine that. It's a scent that would work really well worn as a perfume. Why not have your room smell like it instead?

Last, but by no means least is Marshmallow Fireside.... I have been burning this non stop since I got home. It literally is Winter in a jar! A wood fire, mixed with the scent of toasted marshmallows. Who wouldn't want that? I would describe it as quite an earthy scent, with just a hint of sweetness. I would say this is easily my favourite from the bunch. I would definitely pick up another one if I could.

The leaves are falling, the nights are drawing in and the sun is definitely not around as much. But I for one, am not willing to let go of my 'sunkissed' glow.
I just wanted to show you these two beauties. Both I have loved, but for different reasons.


The Clarins Summer Bronzing Compact, from the Aquatic Treasures collection. Unlike the NYC bronzer, was limited edition. Some of the Clarins bronzers are really beautiful with their intricate designs on the surface.

I like this one in particular, as it contains 4 bronzer shades can be used on most skin shades. Or you can swirl your brush round to get a deep terracotta shade.





They are both on the large size, so not so great for travel. Most bronzers of this style are mahoosive. Can anyone explain why this is? baffled.. The NYC bronzer is amazing quality for the price and even the packaging isn't bad. For more moola, you get better packaging, but not necessarily a better formulation. It all comes down to personal preference. I always say, go and swatch your heart out till you've got no arm left and then decide what it is about makeup that floats your boat.


Anyone else not ready to embrace the full on pale yet? Maybe next month...

Thanks for reading!
