Bobbi's Bubble

So the time has come to replace my primer after it ran out. I've been using the Barry M Flawless Primer for quite sometime and, although it's good quality and really good value for money, I've been finding that it does leave my skin looking quite shiny underneath my make up, so I thought it might be time for a change. I thought a matte primer might do the trick, and the reviews for this one on the Boots website seemed pretty good so I thought I'd give this one a try! It's a little bit more expensive than the Barry M one at £10.99 but there seems to be a lot more product in there, which is good! (That's the only thing I didn't like about the other primer; it did run out very quickly) 

I thought I'd try a different concealer this time around (I've been using the Barry M Flawless Light-Reflecting Concealer for the past few months) and after browsing various make-up websites I found this one seemed to crop up quite a lot among the best-selling and top rated lists. One of my work colleagues also said this was her favourite concealer and since I'm already a huge Urban Decay fan, I had to try it!

To celebrate 20 years of their cosmetics line, Urban Decay released a new, limited edition palette, the XX Vice LTD Reloaded. The palette features 20 shadows, a mixture of newer shades and vintage shades that go right back to the beginning. It also has 3 new colours included. As a self-declared UD junkie, I was desperate to get my hands on this palette. It soon sold out online but it's still available at some concessions in Debenhams. The palette also comes with a large mirror and a double-ended brush like most of the other palette ranges. I also received some samples of the Primer Potion (I've heard good things about this so I'm excited to try it) and 24 sample shades of the Vice Lipsticks, which , if you've read my review of Morning After, you know I love!
