Revlon Foundation UPDATE

Hi everyone!
Well if you read my previous revlon foundation review, it was pretty good! But today it didn't seem so good. I applied just as usual, pre moisturiser primer etc.. But about 5 mins after application it started drying up and cracking!

I have no idea why as its never done that before? I'm going to re test the foundation tomorrow, using a quick application and see how it ends up!

So just a quick update for you guys, as I did previously rate it well but if the same thing happens tomorrow I WON'T recommend! Also If it does happen again I will upload a photo to show you how it looked.

Review: Daisy street disco pants

Daisy street black high waisted disco pants review

Okay, so I dreamt of disco pants for so so long but couldn't bring myself to spending £74 on the original American apparel pair, so researched for ages to find the most similar pair for a fraction of the price! So after endless hours of searching I came across a site called Daisy Street. I'd never heard of them before but the pants looked promising.

The next trouble was sizing! I wanted these to be extra skinny, skinniest they could be! So I opted for a size 6. I am usually a 6/8 in jeans so went for smallest. When they came me and my mum both thought its ridiculous to think I'd fit into them, but I did! Although they did take a while to get on..

I've worn these so many times now, I absolutely love them! They are so so flattering, I ordered a black pair btw! And they go with everything. I have noticed that they do get slight ladders in but I or to say once worn they aren't that noticeable. They go on with more ease now after more wears, but don't actually stretch which is great. Also for a size 6 I was worrying they'd be to short on he leg, because my legs are quiet long - around 31" but they're perfect! Long enough to roll up twice which looks lovely.

As I am so in love with these I am purchasing the American Apparel ones, so ill review them shortly! So i definitely recommend DaisyStreet.com for a cheap alternative to disco pants!

Thanks for reading lovelies!

Revlon colorstay foundation review!


Hey everyone! 
So this is my first blog post, so I thought what better way to start than a foundation review? 

I've never been one to spend a lot of money on foundation as a 15 year old earning no money, but I found a really good one for only £16! I have naturally oily acne prone skin. And until watching YouTube videos etc, I've never realised the importance of the right foundation. So that's why I searched for quiet a while on the best, cheap foundations for oily/combination skin and Revlon's colorstay seemed to be highly rated! 

I brought this from a cosmetic store on eBay (which I will post the link for below) it was just £7.99 +£2.00 postage, bargain! I've brought it in the shade 220 natural beige, after long debate on which shade! I couldn't decide for ages, because I really didn't want the wrong one, but this suits me perfect. 

The only thing I do recommend is where it is for oily/combination skin it can be sometimes TO dry so to always apply moisturiser if you don't already! But yeah, for application I use a Estée Lauder foundation brush, after applying moisturiser and a primer, then finish off with a collection 2000 loose powder. 
 
Easy! As this is my first blog, I'm not quite sure on how to use everything, so any comments or advice would be useful, and also suggestions!
