Real Techniques PowderBleu Soft Powder Brush




I have just got my hands on the Real Techniques newPowderBleu Collection brush!
 


“Powder”- the collection is purposefully designed for powder application. 
“Bleu” – The brushes use the FauxBleu Technology so that the synthetic bristles performs as well as the prestigious blue squirrel hair brushes.

There are 5 brushes and a puff in the collection. Price range from £12 (the Powder puff) to £25 (Kabuki brush).  








I bought just one brush from the collection - 01 Soft Powder brush (£22), as they are not cheap at all for a drugstore brand. Nonetheless, I am pleased to say that the high price tag does reflect the luxurious quality of the brush.

The tapered brush is just soooooo soft! I couldn’t help but just keep running my fingers through the bristles. It is possibly the closest soft feeling to the “out-of-this-world” (both the feel and the price) Suqqu Cheek brush.
 



The bristles are synthetic that means the brush is really easy to clean, and more importantly quick drying time! The bristles are light and fluffy that they pick up thin layer of powder, no need to worry about "cakey-ness".

The deep royal blue colour is stunning! However, the clever deisgn detail comes from the handle - it is the rectangle-shaped handle so that it will stay still and won't be rolling off from dressing tables!There is also a bit of a weight to the handle for the added quality feel to the brush.

I am very happy with my purchase. I am planning to get the Soft Finishing brush (for blushes) and the Soft Shadow Brush next!

"Are you serious?" I know what you are thinking. Wetherspoon pubs have revamped their menu and food quality, but the price has stayed low.

Budget Buy: MUA nail polish in Natural Days

When I was in Superdrug to buy the Tiffany colours (NYC nail polishes  - check out my blog post here ), as the offer was 3 for 2 across all nail polishes, I picked up a MUA polish as my freebie. I saw this pastel baby pink colour in Natural Days. The colour looks really cute in the bottle.

Estee Lauder Enlighten Dark Spot Correcting Night Serum

Lately I have been obsessed with the Estee Lauder Enlighten Dark Spot Correcting Night Serum . In the past I tried the Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution, it was alright but I didn’t find the result that amazing. So when I got a sample of for this Estee Lauder Enlighten Serum, I didn’t have high hopes … But how wrong I was! The sample bottle lasted me for two generous weeks and after that I rushed out to get the full size. Although it is called a serum, it is a light milky lotion texture, it is easily absorbed into skin and it feels moisturising. With the sample bottle, I used it every night after my cleansing routine. I can see visible results to my face after two weeks. My blemish marks are significantly lighter (my main concern) and the skin tone for the rest of my face is visibly more even.  Now I have the full size bottle (30ml, also available in 50ml size), I am going to follow the instructions to use it both day and night. Use it at night to reduce
