Makeup Collection: Brows, Liners & Mascaras

Hey everyone, I hope you're well! Today I have another addition to my Makeup Collection series.
I will be talking you through all my favourite eye products including brows, liners and mascaras!

Freedom Brow Pomade
I was so scared to try this brow pomade out, after using a powder kit for so long I wasn't sure if I'd adapt to anything else! I'm so glad I bought it though as it has become one of my all time favourite products, I have the shade Chocolate which is a slightly warmer shade than I thought but it still applies perfectly every time!

Collection Brow Kit
My first and only brow 'kit' I bought this on a whim in Boots about 2 years ago after dying my hair black, I realised my brows were a little bit too light to match. This is definitely my ride or die brow product, it's one I will always go back to because I know it's a good product and won't let me down.

Benefit Clear Brow Gel
I got this in a recent issue of ELLE magazine, just because it was free and everyone knows how pricey Benefit can be! I thought I'd try before I buy and I will definitely be buying the full size when I've ran out. I used up all the brow mascara in the Collection kit so this is now my go-to!

Maybelline Gel Eyeliner
This eyeliner is a recent purchase of mine and one I'm still trying to get used to. For as long as I can remember, I've always used 'marker' liners as they're the easiest for me to use. But I thought I'd try something a little different and this Maybelline liner was recommended to me by so many people! It comes with it's own little brush, which is great for achieving a perfect wing.

Soap & Glory Supercat Liner
Another recent discovery, the Soap & Glory Supercat liner has been raved about by every blogger and YouTuber around so I had to try it for myself. It has a decent sized nib to help create the ultimate cat eye and although it's quite a bit more expensive than the Maybelline liner, I'd recommend it to anyone that's still not sure on gel liner!

Eyeko Fat Liquid Eyeliner
OMG I can't tell you how much I love this eyeliner! I received this in a Birchbox about 6 months ago and fell in love straight away! The nib is a little bit thicker than the Soap & Glory one but I find it so easy to use, even if you're not creating a winged look. I find this super handy for creating super spooky looks on Halloween too!

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara 
First off, well done to me for buying the waterproof version of this mascara by mistake. It's both a pro and a con that this mascara will not budge for anything! It's perfect for nights out, especially if you're one of those girls that gets a bit teary at the end of the night haha! I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a mascara that sticks to your lashes like there's no tomorrow!!

Max Factor Masterpiece Max Mascara
I've probably had this mascara in my collection for a good few months, and apparently it's my first choice since it's nearly ran out now. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase this since I have quite a few mascaras that need using up first! It's a great mascara for lengthening lashes but doesn't really give them much curl or volume which is a shame!

Soap & Glory Thick and Fast Mascara
This mascara has fast become one of my faves! It has a proper brush, not one of the rubber ones, so it gets right to the root of your lash and gives it so much volume and length! I love the packaging too, it makes the product look really high-end and expensive when it's not! I'd recommend this to anyone, it's my go-to mascara and my collection wouldn't be the same without it!

That's all my favourite eye products from my collection, I hope you enjoyed reading! Did I mention any of your fave products?

March Favourites 2017


Hey everyone, I hope you're well! Today I have my monthly favourites for March, a couple of which are old favourites that I've rediscovered!

BEAUTY

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream || I've had this lip cream for what feels like forever, I must have bought this nearly a year ago and I think it's practically ran out now! I go through phases of using this, and have fell back in love! It's in the shade London which is a gorgeous nude perfect for an everyday makeup look. It has a very creamy consistency and is non-drying so feels lovely on the lips. I wish I owned all the shades!!

 Ciaté Nail Varnish || I actually received this nail varnish in a Glossybox, just before I started my reviews on here. It's in the shade Fade to Greige which I absolutely love! It's perfect for me as I can only wear neutral colours to work, and I've noticed looks very different on other skin tones! I believe Ciaté varnishes are quite pricey, but they're definitely worth the money in my opinion!

Freedom Eyebrow Pomade || I was so nervous to buy this product, not really knowing how to use it but I'm so glad I did! It's been my go-to brow product for just over a month now, and I don't think I'd ever go back to my trusty Collection Brow Kit! I have the shade Chocolate which I must admit is a little bit warm for me, but I make it work!

Coconut Lane Phone Case || I know this isn't exactly a beauty product but it certainly is a beauty to look at! I picked this phone case up a few weeks ago, and love it! I love the blush pink colour with the contrast of marble and although it doesn't feel very sturdy, it's served me well so far! Use my code JEEZLOUISE20 to get 20% off at coconut-lane.com

TV & FILM


How I Met Your Mother || I've always loved this show, and will always watch it if it's on TV. But when I noticed it was on Netflix, I just had to start from Season 1 Episode 1! I've probably watched it everyday this month, even if it's only one episode. It's slowly become one of my favourite shows ever, and always great if you need a good laugh!

Beauty and the Beast || I can't even explain how excited I was when it was announced that there would be a live-action Beauty and the Beast, it's one of my favourite animated Disney movies! I went to see it for my birthday last week, and enjoyed it so much! It's just so magical!! The casting was perfect, and Josh Gad played Le Fou so well. I couldn't help but sing along to all the songs, and left the cinema feeling so good! If you haven't seen it already, go now!!
