Makeup Revolution Salvation Lip Lacquer Review!

Hey guys! I know that it's been a while but i've been busy with work and photo shoots for my newest cosplay. So today i'm back with a review of Makeup Revolution's Lip Lacquers, which I have been obsessed with for the past few weeks. 


Out of the 11 shades I bought the 6 that I loved the most! 


Keep Trying For You

This is a bold traditional blue toned red, which actually reminds me of a Christmas type red. This is one of the most opaque from the collection, however it does stain your lips and will take a heavy duty make-up remover to get it off.

Keep Flying For You

This is the most bold tangerine colour in existence! It's personally my least favourite from the collection since it is such a neon shade and it has a patchy colour pay off as well. I think this may suit certain skin tones more than others, due to my extremely pale skin it made me look a little washed out.


I Fall In Love

This is the ultimate Barbie pink colour, The texture of this shade is very similar to the orange one. in the sense that it is quite patchy unless it is applied very precisely, however this one is also the longest staying so the pros and cons balance each other out.

Keep Crying For You

This is a bright rose pink with a kind of purple undertone to it, and out of the colours I have this is probably the most easy to wear since it is very muted. The colour is similar to Suedeberry from Lime Crime but I feel like the application is easier with this product.

Depravity

My favourite shade of the entire collection, this is literally the most beautiful true lilac lipstick that i've ever bought. I'm not entirely sure how, but I find this to be really wearable outside and not just for photoshoots as I feel like it goes with my pale complexion really well. This was the first shade I bought and it's perfection and can stay for up to 5 hours (That's how long I kept it on) without budging.

Black Heart

For me this is an exact dupe of Lime Crime's Black Velvet, everything about it is practically the same. The colour, the consistency, the pay off and the texture after drying are very similar to Black Velvet but for a fraction of the price. If you're into black lipsticks then this would be your holy grail product.

All of these lipsticks were from Superdrug and usually Makeup Revolution is only sold in the larger stores.

Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner - Brown, Review! ♥

Konnichiwa Minna-san! I've got an amazing product to review today, the Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner. I got this from EBay but it was originally imported from Japan, i've heard so many good things about this eyeliner so I really wanted to try it out and review it for you guys! 

The packaging for this is super cute! It's also far easier to open than a lot of Western make-up, no need for scissors. The eyeliner itself is a felt tip liner with an extremely narrow tip, for me i'm personally not a fan of felt tip liners but this one works perfectly to create a sharp line.  


I love this brown shade! It's the exact shade that all brown eyeliners should be, not the weird brown/black combination that they usually are... The formula for this liner is really watery which some people may hate, especially if you prefer gel liners. However I find it really easy to work with and extremely pigmented for a low cost product.


I wore this eyeliner for 12-14 hours a few days ago, this includes going to work and going out later that night. The result was that the liner barely budged throughout the day and definitely didn't smudge.

Overall i'm thoroughly impressed with this, the quality plus the price make for a fantastic product within budget. Even though Dolly Wink is a Japanese brand it can be found easily on EBay and Yesstyle, I would try to aim for EBay though since the postage would be cheaper. 


Thank you very much for reading my review and I hope you stick around for more in the future

Step-By-Step Liquid Eyeliner Makeup Look - The Cat Eye!

 Konnichiwa Minna-san! I thought I would create a sort of step-by-step tutorial for liquid eyeliner, for those who find it awkward or a little intimidating. I will also be including a variety of liquid eyeliners that I recommend as well! 


1. Start from the center of the eye to estimate the thickness of the eyeliner band that you are looking for.   



2. Draw a steadily thinner line on the inner corner and do this in short flicks, instead of drawing the line all at once. This will reduce the chances of messing the line up.


3. Draw a line out to the outer corner of the eye and extend it into a sharp line as far as you want. This will be how far your cat eye will reach. Connect the line with another shorter line from the bottom outer corner of the eye. This will create a outline of a triangle with a blank spot in the middle.


4. Fill in the triangle and proceed to fix any mistakes or thicken the line more if you wish. After all this is only a small guide, after which you can play around with all types of styles and thicknesses.  



5. That's you finished! It can be hard to get used too, but after a while it will seem like second nature. 

Some people will find different applicators more easier to use than others, for people who are starting out I would recommend a sponge-tip as it can give you more control over your movements. However it mostly makes your lines quite thick, which can be an issue. Gel liner is very useful as a stepping stone between pencil and liquid liners, as the formula is a bit stiffer and easier to control. I personally find a thin hair-like applicator much easier as you can get the flicks very thin and precise.
