Ka'oir Doll Lipstick

Ok, so my much anticipated delivery came yesterday from Ka'oir Cosmetics!! 

They have an offer on at the moment, 3 lipsticks for $54. I really couldn't pick which 3 I wanted and as 'ka'oir doll' wasn't part of this deal I decided to order this alone. 

It took all my strength to not give in to the urge of buying these lipsticks in even single colour!
The delivery didn't take long at all, it took 2 weeks, which I was really pleased about. 

This Lipstick is actually amazing; Keyshia Dior or Keyshia Ka'oir as she now wants to be known lol, has done really well.

The colour and consistency is actually amazing, so smooth and easy to apply. She states that you don't need a lip liner with these and she's right!!! So easy to apply!! I will definitely be purchasing more and can't wait to incorporate this into my next photoshoot.

Bellapierre Shimmer 9 Stack in Fabulous

Ok, so I'm actually pretty excited about this. Bellapierre was one of the brands that caught my eye a while ago but its quite expensive. Then I stumbled across them in TK Maxx for 75% off!!! BARGAIN!!!
I decided to purchase Fabulous, well I didn’t really have a choice. It was the only one they had left.

As with all mineral pigments, they claim you can use these for your eyes (both as a shadow and a liner), cheeks, lips,nails, and even as mascara! So I guess these may end up becoming really useful in one of my future Photoshoots.

I have swatched all colours with Inglot Duraline and without, I applied Urban Decay Primer Potion first.
Colours listed from right to left:
Desire – shiny pitch-pink, Hurly Burly –sparkly purple, Ocean – baby blue with icy shimmer, Provence – shimmery light purple.


Discoteque – golden green, Reluctance – golden olive green, Tropic – bright green with simmer, Celebration – golden copper, Cinnabar – shimmery red.

The top row is the colours without the duraline.
Once I added the Duraline, it changed the consistency completely I would say it made it easier to apply. The shadow glided on so smoothly.

I am really loving these and I definitely look forward to using these a lot :)

Inglot - Duraline Review



Today I went to Inglot, mainly because they had a lipstick I wanted but I was also looking for a glitter adhesive that was safe for the eyelids.
I spoke to one of the assistants about Duraline and she showed me how it worked with there glitter. I was impressed enough to purchase it, it looked so simple.
Its £7 normally so not that expensive, but I got 20% off with my Make Up Artist discount.


The box says that 'Duraline is a special transforming liquid that will turn any powder eyeshadow into a liquid formulation'

I tested it out with my new Bellapierre shimmer stack, so I will upload the pics as part of my review for the shimmer stack.


It’s really easy to use. I just added a drop to the back of my hand; dipped the brush into the product and then dipped the brush into the shadow. They blend really well together, and the eye shadow had a really nice creamy texture. The colours were a lot bolder also. I can’t wait to experiment with the product on my next photoshoot.

I Purchased 2 new eyeshadow sets...Urban Decay Naked Palette and Bellapierre Shimmer 9-stack in Fabulous.


They both are amazingly pigmented. I will do a full detail review once I have used them a few times, but I just wanted to share my purchases with you!


I have a photo shoot today, so I will definitely try to incorporate them both into my looks.

My 1st Bride...


My cousin got married back in October and I was her trusted Make Up Artist! 
I was very nervous as this was a very big day for her and I wanted everything to go as planned. 
It was my very 1st wedding and she is family so it was even more nerve racking…
She loved the final look so I’m very very happy with the outcome. :-) 

I have uploaded a few pics for you guys to see...

Nail Polish Haul

Here's the new additions to my nail varnish collection, I bought NYC in a minute in Sidewalkers & Park Ave. I honestly only got Park Ave because Superdrug were doing 2 for £2.49; as I originally went in there for Sidewalkers.
You guys already know my thoughts on Sidewalkers, but I will also do a review for Park Ave as soon as I've used it...
I also go the OPI top coat...I feel like it speaks for itself really...its a necessity!!



I need these!!!

Video Model Keyshia Dior had started her own brand of make up...she has some amazing colours!!!
I will own every last one eventually!!
