Amazing & Affordable Eye Bases


Rimmel Scandaleyes


Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeshadow Base Sticks



Retailing at £4.49 these eyeshadow base sticks from Rimmel are a steal! They come in a handful of shades, I obviously stuck to the neutral tones (however the turquoise one I've swatched a few times & I think it'll look fabulous in the waterline!!)



There are no negatives about this product, its affordable, long lasting, you can wear it alone and it sets to be smudge proof!!!! The shades I have, one is shimmery & the other is of a matte finish (the matte one is sooo creamy). 



Although Trespassing taupe looks like a very cool toned taupey grey shade, it has a subtle warm undertone once blended out and looks amazing with an orange shade in the crease. It also looks more neutral on my lids.

Here is a swatch of both shades blended out heavily, but bare in mind you can wear them on the lids without blending and get the full impact of the swatch above


Overall I give these a 5/5 and recommend everyone to try them. Even if you're not an eyeshadow person, just apply the trespassing taupe on your lids and blend it out and apply your liner or mascara, it'll look so natural & gives a flawless look!! 

For the more warm toned or smokey eye lovers, you can use bad girl bronze blended out with a subtle gold or even matte shadow for a hint of sparkle & sheen or build up the pencil and go all out with a dark chocolate bronze smokey eye (my fave eye look)

Kylie Jenner Lipliner Dupes

That mauvey/browney 90s lip has given everyone life, here's what I use on a daily basis to achieve that full pout 


Mac Soar, Whirl lipliner dupes

Nude, neutral lipliner swatches

Rimmel Addiction is a creamstick liner which as its title suggest is a very creamy smooth lipliner. It's colour is also the closest to MAC's Whirl & Dervish

Jordana Tawny is also a creamstick liner, I pair this mainly with Nars Anita & I love the resulting shade

Rimmel Cappuccino may look dark & scary but just the slightest pressure used to line the lips after you apply your lipstick gives maximum fullness. (In a future blogpost I'll display how natural it can look) works great with more paler lipstick shades too
