Unicorn Essentials // New Spectrum Goodies Review


When Spectrum Collections send you an email with the words #NationalUnicornDay and Sale in it, you don't really have much choice do you? A couple of weeks ago (you can tell how far behind I am with blog posts) was National Unicorn Day and Spectrum Collections had some money off a selection of their products. I absolutely love Spectrum products; I think they're a really high quality and good value for money and let's face it, they look absolutely stunning too! I'd been looking to replace my beauty blender as it was getting a bit ratty, so I decided to purchase their Unicorn Tears Wonder Sponge and as it was on offer I also bought the Unicorn Horn Polish brush cleaner! 

Unicorn Tears Wonder Sponge


This is a really great little sponge to use! I used the pointed end to blend in my concealer under my eyes and it was small enough to reach right into the corners to ensure everything was all blended together. I then used the round end on the rest of my face. It blended everything out really easily and worked just as well as my old one so I'm really pleased with it! It says you can use this sponge wet or dry and I used it dry underneath my eyes. However when I dampened it to use it on the rest of my face, it went a really weird shape! I think it shouldn't be a problem once it dries but I hope it doesn't stay like that!

Unicorn Horn Polish Brush Cleaner

Ok so the first thing you notice with this product is the smell; it's got grapefruit in it so it has a really strong citrus smell which I love! All you do with this product is wet your brush and then just swirl it around the pan until it's clean. It worked so well, my brushes were definitely clean and they smelt so lovely! I would say to tip the excess water out of the pan after you've used it and to leave it with the lid off to dry properly so it stays nice and fresh!

Thank you Spectrum, you've done it again with your amazing products!

Urban Decay Vice Lipstick "Morning After" Review

Urban Decay Vice Lipstick in "Morning After" *New favourite lipstick alert*  This lipstick is seriously giving me life right now! I bought it a couple of weeks ago and since then I've been constantly reaching for it. It's part of the Vice lipsticks collection from Urban Decay, which comes in 100 different shades and 6 different finishes (Comfort Matte, Cream, Metallized, Sheer, Sheer Shimmer and Mega Matte) and they're priced at £15. This one is from the Sheer range, it's a light nude shade that's more on the pink side. What I really love about is how buildable it is in terms of colour; one coat and you just get that really subtle, pink sheen to your lips or you can build it up into a super-glossy pink look! The only bad thing I can say about it is that they haven't made this shade in the matte finish because it would be so perf! (I think the closest you'll get in this finish is "Backtalk")

Why I Came Off The Pill // Honesty Time

I wasn't 100% sure if I was going to write about coming off The Pill or not. I personally think that a lot of people, especially women, feel that they can't talk about contraception and the effects it has openly. I recently read a blog by Alex Jones (her Instagram account is @alexgracejones if you'd like to have a look) which pretty much convinced me to write this. As Alex says in her blog, contraception is a conversation I've had with friends so many times, and yet outside of those circles, you don't really hear anyone speak about it. Personally, as a woman, I've always felt it's pretty much been up to me to make sure I don't get pregnant, whether that's taking hormonal contraception or using a condom. It seems odd to me then, that there aren't many women out there talking openly about their contraception, so I think it's time we changed this! I originally went on The Pill when I was 17 because my periods were really irregular and very h...

The Cherry On Top // Urban Decay Naked Cherry Palette Review

Wow I'm actually sitting down to review something that isn't a Birchbox 😂 I've been meaning to write this post since October when I got this palette, but as usual school and other life stuff have meant it's taken until now to do! RRP £42 This palette originally launched in September as a new instalment of Urban Decay's Naked series. I was really excited by it, as it's very different to all of the other Naked palettes out there and I'm a sucker for anything remotely pink-toned. It retails for £42, making it one of the more expensive palettes in the Naked series, and inside are 12 beautiful berry-toned shades: Hot Spot - a matte ivory shade. I always use these for setting my eyeshadow primer and as a browbone highlight shade. Caution - a neutral matte beige. Bang Bang - a pink shimmer. Feelz - a dusty rose matte shade. Juicy - a peachy pink matte. This is a great transition shade. Turn On - a gorgeous rose-gold metallic shade. Ambitio...
