Review of the MAC Fluidline Brow Pomeade!

Hiya everyone! So, if you have read my half-term haul, then you would know that I bought an MAC Fluidline in True Brunette. Now I have had time to practice using this product and get used to it, I thought it was time to review it for you! Here is what I thought:


Firstly, this product is £16, which is one of the most expensive brow products yet one of the cheapest products sold at MAC. The product itself is quite small, but I have used it almost every day and there is barely a dent! The formula of this product is very creamy, but when it dries it is super matte.


The application of the product was hard to master, but after a while, I found it easier. You can make this product really natural if you brush it through with a spoolie, or make it really intense. Also, if you make a mistake, the product can be easily removed with a cotton bud.

The product comes in 5 shades, which is quite good for a brow product. It also claims to be long wearing and waterproof; I have not tested the waterproof factor yet but I think that it is definitely long-wearing.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this product if you like a defined brow (whether it is really dark or more natural), but if you like to make the shape a little less intense or you are on a budget, then maybe this is not for you.

My Makeup Collection and Storage! Xxxx

Hiya everyone! So recently I have been really trying to tidy and build up my makeup collection, and I think I am proud of it! Here is how I store my makeup, hope you enjoy!

To the left is my Amazon Luxebelle makeup brushes in a heart mug. If you are interested in these brushes, I did a blog post on them which you can read here. Next to this is a plastic makeup container which holds my lipsticks, brushes and favourite perfume- Zara 'Candy'. In the lipstick holders, I have 3 MAC lipglosses, one MAC lipstick and 2 Primark lipsticks.
In the top drawer, I have my go-to nude lipsticks. My favourites are my MUA liquid lip stain in 'Tranquillity' and my Rimmel 'Apocalips' lip stain in 'Shooting Star'.
In the bottom, drawer, I have my bolder lipsticks. My favourites are my Ted Baker liquid lipstick and my MAC Dazzleglass in 'Love Alert'.

Starting from the right, I have my eyeshadow palettes. My favorites are my W7 Lightly Toasted palette and my Soap and Glory 'Lid Stuff' palette. Next to them I have my mascaras, of which my favourite is Benefit's Roller Lash. Above them I have my eyeliners, and my favorite is my Barry M Khol liner in White. To the left of them I have my concealers, my favorite one of them is the Benefit 'Oooh La Lift'(I'm not too sure if this counts a concealer but oh well!) And underneath them are my skin products, and my fave is the MAC Studio fix powder. These products are stored in a plastic divider box, which are really easy to get hold of!
Next to these are some blushes and benefit minis, I love the Bene Balm and Tint! And finally, above them are my bronzers and highlighters. My faves are my Collection 'Speedy Highlight' and my Revolution 'Ultra Bronze'.
(Incase you are wondering, this is the same drawer as the previous picture)
In the bottom right are some loose shadows. My favorite ones are my Maybelline Colour Tattoo in 'On and On Bronze' and the 915 shadow in 'Bronze'. Next to them are some more loose shadows by the brand 'Flutter Cosmetics'. I have every shade- they are so pigmented! On the left of them are all of my lip balms, my fave is the Maybelline Baby Lips in 'Pink Punch'. The rest of the drawer is just filled with nail polish and nail tools, My fave polishes are my Barry M Speedy nail paint and my Ted Baker Nail polish.

Thank you for reading my post, and make sure to check out all of links around my page! And also follow me if you are not already to become a member of our family! See you soon, Gracie xxx

Tour Of My Makeup Bag! Xxx




Hiya everyone! So I was going to do an updated 'Everyday Makeup Routine', but I wanted to something different since I have seen a lot of others do this. So instead I thought I would do a 'Tour Of My Makeup Bag', because then I get to show you more of what I use. This post will contain my everyday makeup, brushes and skincare! Hope you enjoy! (Ps, sorry for the blue-toned photos!)
Skin Care


Usually, I don't use a face mask every day, but I wanted to include this in anyways! For cleanser, I use the Garnier Mycellar Water because it is calm and gentle on the skin. I also love this because it comes in many different types to suit your skin! To moisturise, I use the 'Re-Gen' cream because it treats lots of skin problems and hydrates my dry skin.

Makeup 


My everyday makeup has actually changed a lot recently. For my base I use the MAC Studio Fix Powder in 'NC 20' because it gives me coverage whilst being lightweight on the skin. I actually contour with a Primark foundation stick in the shade 'Warm Beige' because it is just the right shape and really creamy! After this, I highlight my cheekbones with the Rimmel Match Perfection concealer. For brows, I use the Collection 'Colour Lash' mascara in 'Brown', because I find that mascaras last longer than brow gels and this also gives my brows a tint. I use Soap and Glory 'Lid Stuff' eyeshadow on my eyelids, then finish with the Barry M white kohl liner. After curling my lashes, I use my KIKO Active+ mascara and Roller Lash because they make a great pair. To finish the look, I apply the Primark lipstick in the shade 'Marsala'.

Brushes


Most of my brush collection is from a set I bought online a while ago called 'Glow'. This set is amazing, you get 12 brushes and a case for a great price, and the quality is really good too. The brushes are really soft yet dense, meaning the application is really great also! If you are looking for some new brushes, check these out here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Glow-Makeup-Brushes-Crocodile-Leather/dp/B00G6Z8R9O/ref=sr_1_4?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1456686081&sr=1-4&keywords=glow+make+up+brushes
The remainder of my brushes (and sponge) are from Primark.
