Anyone who knows me will know just how obsessed with unicorns I am, so when I saw that Makeup Revolution had a lipstick collection out called Unicorns Unite I just HAD to have it. (Er hello, two of my favourite things combined). At just £1 each, you really can't complain at this utter bargain, especially when all 5 colours are only £4 when bought together on their website. And if it couldn't get any better, the main colour scheme is purple, my fave.

When I first opened the package, I was a little disappointed as I thought the shades Throne and Legend were quite similar.

But actually, Legend is darker than Throne, I think it was just my eyesight playing up.

Magical is the first shade I opened. In the packaging it kind of looked like a dark blue, but it's actually a nice rich purple. However, the pigmentation of this lipstick is probably the worst out of the collection although I think this could be fixed with a liner underneath.

Next came Pink Myth, probably the most wearable shade of the group. It's a bright pink with a subtle hint of shimmer, and somewhat reminds me of Barbie maybe?

Next is Horn Of Magic, and absolutely gorgeous shade that reminds me of Frozen and just snow in general. It's also a very unusual shade, I don't actually think I've seen it before.

Legend I think is my favourite shade. It's an in between shade of Magical and Throne. I can see myself wearing this a lot with dark outfits (which is all I ever wear). I also think that it was the easiest to apply and longest wearing.

And finally we have Throne, the iciest purple shade I have ever seen. I'm thinking of working on a look with this as it has given me some ideas for a tutorial, so watch this space!

It has been absolutely ages since I did a "tutorial" style post, so today I thought I would share my take on a simple smokey neutral eye using the Urban Decay Naked palette. This only uses four colours and is mega easy, I love doing it.


First of all, I primed my eyelid with concealer and set with Foxy from the Naked Basics palette. Then I put the shade Naked from the Naked palette all over my lid.

Then I went in with the shade Buck on my crease to add some definition.

After that I darkened the outer corner and crease more with Darkhorse, and blended the colours up. I also highlighted my brow with Venus. (I feel like this photo doesn't show the darker shade too well, but trust me it's there!)

I then added eyeliner to my top lid, without creating too much of a wing. I smudged Buck very lightly under my eye and used eyeliner on my waterline, finishing it off with mascara.

Just a little post on some cool graffiti in Bristol today (I have a weird obsession, and if it's done right, I see it as art). This also features Thailand Elephants, an amazing charity which helps raise awareness for the cruelness towards elephants in Thailand, so go check them out too!

Just some photos I took inspired by Nicolas Bruno.
