Archery

From Boots for £10.00 I bought this because I had never used a pen tip tint before.

This is double ended and at one end is the pen tip and the other is the pencil. It comes in two shades Love is Blonde and Brownie Points.  I have Brownie Points and the pen part looks ok but the pencil is not the right shade for me as I have dark brows.

Directions for use: Starting with the pen end, brush on the tint to fill and shade, then follow with the crayon to shape your browns and give them a fuller look. 

I love that the pen makes your eyebrows look natural but it takes forever to fill in! I have to admit I prefer to use powder because its a lot quicker for me and I dont have enough patience to sit there for ages unfortunately! It lasts long and gives a great look. I also love the name and the brush to the pen is nice and soft.

The pencil part  I am not that big of a fan as it feels hard and I had to really press hard to get it to come out. The pencil part you can also notice is not the right colour for me!

I think this is a great product for people that have light to medium shade brows and need them looking fuller as its great for making brows look natural. 

I am really impressed with Soap and Glory products though!

BH Cosmetics 120 Palette 2nd Edition

I bought the BH Cosmetics palette quite a while back now. I bought it because I saw the amazing eye looks Katie Alves creates using them http://katiealves.deviantart.com/ .  I love the colours BH does and I chose the 2nd edition as it contains bright and neutral shades.

The ingredients are Talc, Mica, Mineral Oil, Kaolin, Titanium Dioxide, Magnesium Stearate, Isopropyl Palmitate, Lanolin, Methylparaben, Propylparaben and BHT.

I cant say I have used this too much but I think thats due to the fact I only really wear neutral eyeshadow specifically Revlon Colourstay Addictive Intoxiquant. However I did use this for a Make up portfolio I had to create for ' my favourite theatre production' and they liked my photos!

The colours do come out bright especially if you layer them and they also blend really well and have good staying power. Even the red in the photo is eyeshadow.  The variety of colours is amazing too as well as the price!

All in all I think the palette is really good and I should really use it more!
