Possibly the best fuschia lipstick ever?!

I absolutely adore lipstick, but I'm only recently starting to get into it. I've been starting to kind of play around with some colours and there is one lipstick in particular that I am in love with!
 
 
 
 
This lipstick is literally the most perfect fuchsia pink I have ever seen. I love the colour, I love the formula, I love the packaging, and most of all I LOVE the price! It only costs about €7/8 in Ireland! It kind of reminds me of Mac's Candy Yum Yum, except way more affordable!
 
 
 
As for the smell of the lipstick, it pretty much smells like all Rimmel lipsticks do. Yeno, that kind of cherry yet fake, plastic kind of smell? I personally don't mind the smell because in case you haven't already noticed, I adore this lipstick. It's not a matte lipstick, and it is super creamy!
 
I think it's perfect for Summer and I know I'm going to be wearing it non-stop, especially when going out at night!
 
 
 
The Rimmel Kate collection is available in most Boots, Superdrug or anywhere that usually stocks Rimmel products! You can also buy it online here.
 
Let me know what you think of this lipstick, or if you recommend any other colours!

All Round Concealer by Catrice Cosmetics

Hello again :) A few weeks ago I was browsing around Primark and I discovered this Catrice concealer palette! I was in the market for a new one since my Rimmer Wake Me up had ran out, so I decided to give this a shot! And it was only about €4 give or take a few cents, so I couldn't go wrong! 

     



                                 


So as you can see it comes with 5 different shades:
Green - neutralises redness.
Pink - conceals dark circles.
And then it also comes with three different shades of beige, that you can use on their own or mix together to get the perfect colour for you! 



                                 

I don't suffer from very bad dark under eye circles, so I can't really tell you if the pink works. However the green does counteract redness like it says, as I do notice if I use it around my nose area, and then apply my foundation, it is does help with the redness! 
As for the beige colours, I LOVE them! I like to use the lightest shade for under the eyes, and then I alternate between the other two for spot and blemish concealing. The consistency is super creamy and blendable, and it still gives amazing coverage. 

I thought I'd show you just how well it covers, since I'm breaking out really badly lately! (Dam you leaving cert and stress!!) 


                      

As you can see it covers really well, yet it doesn't look cakey.. Yay! 
As for its lasting power, it's okayish.. I have had to reapply after about 5-6 hours, but its not something that doesnt really bother me too much. 

I think I'd definitely re-purchase this concealer when I run out. It's so cheap and affordable and one of the best I've tried. I'd recommend for everyone to try it before trying higher end concealers. I guarantee you'll love it, and if you don't, at least you won't have broke the bank buying it!! 

I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know if you tried this and what you think of it! 
Talk soon,
