Some Beauty UK goodies!

Hey everyone, before I start of this review I just want to say I am so so sorry for not having posted for so long!! I have just gone back to university and life has been hectic for me, but I think I am trying to get back on top of things now especially since I have exams coming up soon...ohh noo lol BUT dont worry I have not forgotten about you guys and blogging just yet!! Hang on in thereee for me please :) 

Ok so on to some reviews! I received these products very kindly off Beauty uk cosmetics. I really do appreciate their support, thank you!! I have had a good test of these items in the last 1 1/2 months or so, and realised really my views on them are quite clear and simple...not too much ramble then haha...enjoy...

Metallic eye sparks in purple
This is my favourite item by this company so far, it is a smooth metallic cream eyeshadow/liner.  Purple is my all time favourite colour anyways….to top it of its shimmery! There are other shades, all simply gorgeous! No tugging of your eyelids is needed because it glides on easily. If you are a fan of the NYX jumbo eye pencils, then you are going to love these!! I find that these are much better in quality than the NYX ones, less costly and are accessible in the UK too.

Blusher in dolly pink
You get quite a large compact of blush. The blushes are matte and smooth. I have noticed it is not very long wearing, so requires reapplication. I have it in an almost bright pink shade which gives a nice flush. Good colour pay off but not overly stark so can be used when layering blushes on cheeks!

Glitter eye dust
Ok this is perfect for a night time look. It’s not too chunky glitter but needs a primer or a base to which it can stick to. I had tried it with the purple metallic eye sparks and loved the effect it gave! Please try these out!! Note…they are not as fine as barry m glitter dusts but still look beautiful. A tip is to use this glitter to jazz up any gel eye liners you may have that you are bored of wearing J
