Zoeva Rose Gold Brushes & Smoky Palette Review ♡

♡ ZOEVA  

Let me just start off by saying WOW! I am seriously impressed by this company. From the products I've purchased right down to how they've package everything, I am so so happy. Everything I ordered was rapped in more than enough bubble rap for it to survive an explosion! lol.
I will definitely be back for more!

The first thing I ordered were these gorgeous Rose-Gold brushes. They set me back €65, pretty good bargain if you ask me! 
The quality is amaze-balls and they make blending eye makeup a billion times easier and faster! 


I've spot cleaned these brushes in-between each use and deep cleaned them twice in the past week or so and theyre still as good as new; no shedding and they retain they're shape perfectly!

The only thing I would point out is that I would of liked if they were slightly more weighted to feel a bit more comfortable in the hand, but other than that I cant fault these brushes. I'm in love and they love so purdyyy on my vanity.

Because I was so impressed with the speedy delivery and high quality I decided I'd order the Smokey Palette, and I'm so annoyed I didn't order more! 
Very comparable to the Urban Decay eye shadows; pigment and texture wise. They are super pigmented and buttery feeling! 

Each shadow has an individual name for example: Dust and Memories, Sleep to Dream, Elegant Chaos, are just a few of my faves.

As for packaging, Its pretty stand, but I like it. Its sleek and it wont take up much room in my makeup storage which is always a plus.

Now onto the best part....swatches! You can see how pretty they are for yourself.




Hope you enjoyed this quick review. Let me know what your fave Zoeva products are, and why, below!

Get Your Glow On: Perfectly Bronzed Summer Skin (No Sun)

 ♡Summer Glow♡

With Summer and hopefully the warmer weather approaching fast I've made a list of a handful of products and tips which are perfect for giving you that bronzed, Summer glow to your face and body.

If your a fake tan-aholic like myself, then you'll know how hard it is to find a good fake tan that offers longevity and a deep tan that isn't orange.
My favorite fake tan is Wow Brown by a mile, it lasts a good few days (4/5 days), its dark but natural looking plus its 'boyfriend friendly scented' too. I will admit is does has a slight smell after about 5/6 hours of development time, but it smells great going on! Its also a dream to take off.

Runner up has to be White-to-Brown . It does what it says on the tin and takes you too a lovely dark, natural looking tan. I find it doesn't last as long as Wow Brown (maybe by a day or so) but other than that the two tans are practically identical. 

Wow Brown is priced at €21.99 from wowbrown.com 
White to Brown €10.49 Wholesaler Price (Salon Services) and costs anywhere from €20-€25 in Salons




To achieve a fresh, glowing face I recommend mixing an Illuminating primer (17 WOW Primer) with your moisturiser/BB Cream/ foundation for that "glow from within"! 

 Use a brightening concealer (Nyx HD Concealer in Yellow) under the eyes, in the center of the forehead, down the nose, across the cupids bows and on the center of the chin, this will highlight the areas if the face the sun would naturally cause a shine. 
.
Add more glow to your face and body using a powder highlight (17 Glow highlighting brick) I like to use a large fluffy brush to dust the product across my forehead, tops of my cheek bones, cupids bow and chin as well as on to my collar bones and shoulders when you really want that extra glow!
