Review: Bourjois Eyeshadow Review

Little Pot Eyeshadow (£6.99) Boots

I took advantage of the Boots 3 for 2 offer on make-up the other day and decided to give all you little lovelies a review of the little things I bought.
The first is a Bourjois eyeshadow, its a mineral pigment eyeshadow and the shade is number 5. I 
think its the shade rose dragree.

When looking at the packaging, I don't think Boujois can go wrong with their little round pots. They're the perfect size for make-up bags and handbags, plus they look cute displayed on dressing tables. The little button and magnet also make them ideal for carrying around, because they're less likely to spill and the little mirror inside is handy for looks on the go.

These little round pots consist of a rich powder formular comprised of 87% mineral pigments to ensure great coverage and great depth. The formula is smooth which makes them really blendable and its great for illuminating and highlighting, aswell as looking pretty as a base/ main colour.

I am in love with this eyeshadow, I didn't think it would be possible but yes it is ladies. It's such a pretty colour! I can't stop looking at it.

I love shimmery eyeshadows and wanted to build my collection of natural yet shimmery eyeshadows, that can be worn both in the daytime and in the evening.
I also thought that it would be great as a highlight on the brow bone and on the cheeks because of the light texture of the shadow.

There is also 0% fall out when I put it on my eyelid and when I was applying it to the brush, which is always good as thats something that annoys me about some cheaper eyeshadows as half of it ends up down your face somewhere.

What do you think of the colour? Can you recommend any other Bourjois products? I'm wanting a little pot blush next :)

Recent Purchases

I've been quite busy the last few days so haven't been blogging in a while but I'll update you all on the things I've been doing another day.

I popped to my local Boots earlier whilst I was going to the gym, I also realised I had a No7 voucher which I wanted to spend. So the first thing I bought was a Tangle Teezer, I'd always heard good things about these products and had been admiring them for a while. Everytime I'd walked into Boots I'd look at them but always walk away without one. I managed to get this for free because I spent my Boots advantage card points. I got the purple sparkly one and used it after the gym and I love it already, it makes my hair so smooth and knot-free.

I also bought the No7 Beautiful Skin Foaming Cleanser, on the bottle it says 'created to help your oily skin behave like normal skin and provide tailored skin nutrition for healthy looking, bright and beautiful skin'. I suffer from oily skin on my T-Zone areas and thought this would be a good product to get, I also had a £5 off voucher and will give a better review once I have used it properly as I only bought it today. I like the look of other products in the range so may have to get some more before the 29th as I have two vouchers that will run out.

Finally I got the Bourjois healthy mix serum, I'd heard great things about this product and after many weeks I thought I would finally buy it. I'd been using the Revlon PhotoReady Foundation and wanted an alternative which would be better for the daytime and so I had a choice of foundations. I've already used a little bit of the foundation just to test it once I got home and it blends in really nice, it feels quite thick but I'm sure it would blend in nicely with a brush rather than fingers.

I made a purchase from ASOS during Monday evening as I'd been looking for a new university bag and couldn't find one that was a nice size in the shops so decided to look online. I've really liked ASOS lately and found the Leather Leopard Print Shopper reduced down from £75 to £37.50. I had been looking at this months ago but really didn't want to spend £75 on it. I received it this morning and its really nice, soft leather and the perfect size.

I hope you've all had a good week so far, I'll review the purchases I made from Boots once I feel that I can give a good review on them.
