THE NEW EOS DUPE? P.S love shea butter lip balm.

Hey guys!

Primark's beauty line is the P.S love range which I'm sure you've all heard of by now. It's fair to say they are exceeding expectations lately! They're knocking some other drugstore brands out of the field.  The latest item I picked up from them is their shea butter lip balm. It's concept is near enough a copy cat idea of the EOS lip balm in terms of packaging, this is more of a diamond/square but the idea is definitely a branch off the EOS balms. I loved the EOS lip balms for years and had to order them from America every time I wanted one which was so annoying! (They do sell them in Urban outfitters now though!) But I think I've found my replacement.





The P.S love shea butter lip balm is great, it works well admittedly it's not the most moisturising I have ever tried but it works for a little while and I don't mind re- applying. I do think they are more moisturising on the other hand though than the EOS ones. The scent is fab, smells exactly like all shea butter products. They're definitely smaller than the EOS ones but they're handy to chuck in your pocket. I don't know if they have any different flavours/scents but if they do I'll definitely pick some more up. Overall I prefer these at the moment. Mainly because I am closer to a Primark than an Urban Outfitters and I don't have to order them online. These are only £2 as well which definitely helps! Go and grab yourself one, it'll help combat the dry lips that your getting because of the weather. Well that's my excuse anyway!

Hope you enjoyed this little review! Cam xxxx

January Favourites!

Hey guys!

It's that time again... January favourites time! This month I have narrowed my favourites down to just 4 proucts, these have been my absolute favourite, the products I feel lost without.

The first product is the Sleek matte me lip cream in the shade petal, I won't bang on about this too much because I have already put up a review, I'll link it here.
One of my best friends bought the Mary- lou manizer aka the luminizer from the balm for me for Christmas and I have fallen in love! This highlighter is incredibly pigmented and has an amazing glow. It is a gold highlight with slightly pink iridescent to it. You literally need the tinsiest bit to create the perfect finish to any makeup look.
I was also given the Bare Minerals original foundation off my Mum for Christmas and I am loving it. I can't believe that a powder product can give such fantastic coverage. I also have the matte version which I like but at the moment I'm all over the original version which is slightly dewy.

A new product on the market is the Max Factor creme puff blush in the shade gorgeous berries, these blushers remind me of the hourglass ambient lighting powders but they are more pigmented and less of a highlight shade, 'Gorgeous berries' is a dusky dark pink which is so flattering on my fair skin tone, it's such a versatile shade and it will suit a lot of different skin tones. This blush is amazingly pigmented and you need the tiniest amount. I want to do a full post on these blushers soon, let me know if you'd like to see that?

What are you favourites this month?
