More Eyeko Make-up!

Yes, another blog about Eyeko make-up.
I recently recieved some more of this wonderful brand's make-up. I got the Eyeko Tinted Cream, Mascara, Concealer and a free Strawberry Fat Balm.
Reviews? Here they are (:
The Tinted Cream is really good. It really highlighted my face and gave me a clear luminous glow. It stayed on most of the day, i only had to touch up once. It's good for when you feel a bit.. make-up - less! haha.
The Eyeko Mascara is a must have. It makes your lashes super long. I tested it against a few of my other mascaras and the Eyeko one won them all, it made my lashes atleast twice as long as the other brands! Only thing was it klumped my lashes together a bit which slightly put me off it. Overall i definately recommend this to people with short lashes who want a bit of a boost!

The Concealer is definately one of a kind. It's silky and smooth, and goes on really well. It highlighted my eyes and made them stand out more, i also found that i looked a lot more awaken when i used it early in the morning.
Well, thats more or less it. I'm not going to do a review on the Strawberry Fat Balm as it's the same as the Minty Fat Balm, but it made your lips more vibrant and bold. It's like a subtle pinkish red. Heres a picture with all three Fat Balms.

Thanks for reading! I'll hopefully be getting the Eyeko Make-up Manga Book next month along with a few other make-up types and brands. I'll do a tortorial look with the Manga Book.

Eyeko

I recently recieved some Eyeko products from http://www.eyeko.com/.
For starters, i bought the "Eyeko Cream", one of the first ever products they launched. As this was a big hit, i thought i would give it a try :)I loved it! It lasted all day, and gave my face a shimmery glow without making my face look oily like most creams.
The second product was the "Minty Fat Balm". I heard it was a really good lip balm from friends and magazines, so, i gave it a try too..

This made my lips feel refreshened and moisturised. It has now become my favourite lip balm! I can't wait to try the other flavours/colours (:
Thirdly was the.. "Magic Liquid Eyeliner".


It's really good! But i found it to look rather weak when it was on, so i had to put two layers on.
And last but not least was the.. "Face Off Wipes". I got 3 of these free with my order.

I loved them, they made my skin super soft and got rid of all my make-up!
Overall, i will definatley be buying these products again. They are really good, i've never actually tried anything quite like them.

What i'm Currently Using

Hair

Shampoo:
Herbel Essences - Makes your hair feel amazing and smell good enough to eat!
Tresemme - They have a range of products for all kinds of hair, from dry/damaged hair to greasy/oily hair. I tend to use the dry/damaged shampoo.
Mint Source - I love this as it makes you feel refeshened when you get out of the bath or shower.
Te Tao - This is a chinese remedy shampoo which i get from the chemist. I don't really use it very often, only if there isn't anything else to use. It's really good though, it helps frizzy/damaged hair and gives it a bit of moisture.

Conditioner:
Herbal Essences - Is a really creamy/smooth thick liquid. It makes your hair not so frizzy.
Aussie - I don't use this all the time, but it is pretty good. My mum said that they used to use it in the hairdressers (She used to be a hairdresser herself).
Tresseme - As i said, it's more or less like the shampoo. It makes you hair softer and shinyer.

Serum/De-Frizz:
Mark Hill De-Frizz Texturizing Polish - As i have slightly frizzy hair this is great! It definately calms it down a bit. I highly recommend this to people with frizzy hair.
I have tried the Mark Hill De-Frizz Shine Serum and it made my hair really staticy and free. It didn't really calm it down. I wouldn't recommend this.

Face

Blackhead Control:
Clearasil Blackhead Clearing Pads - These work really well, i like the way you can feel it working as it tingles slightly. I recommend this to people with lots of blackheads that can't be bothered to cleanse everyday.

Clearasil Blackhead clearing scrub - This is my favourite blackhead destroyer! It's good because it also cleans your face at the same time, as well as exfoliating and helping get rid of spots! I highly recommend this to everyone!

Spot Control:
Clearasil Deep Clean Pads - This helps get rid of spots and deep cleanses your pores.

Face Mask:
Lush "Cupcake" Face Mask - This is really good for dry to oily skin! I highly recommend!

Body

Shower Gel/Soap:
Palmolive Soap - It drys out your skin a bit so wouldn't really recommend it.
Mango Source Shower Gel - From the same brand that made Mint Source, only this is a shower gel lol. I love it, it smells amazing! You smell really tutti-frutti when you get out of the shower haha.

Moisturiser:
The Body Shop Strawberry Body Lotion - I absoloutly love this body lotion! It makes your skin feel super soft AND you smell amazing when its on (:

Spray:
Well, this is going to be a long list.. So i'm not going to write them down :) I have a lot, so i just spray on whatever i can find. The ones i use most are by "So...?" Fragrances.

Perfume:
Once again, i have alot of perfume! I like to use "So You" by Giogio (Not sure how you spell it) Beverly Hills. My second faves are "So...? Kiss Me" and "So...? Excited". "So...? Excited" smells like fruits which i love and "So...? Kiss Me" is more of an elegant smell.

Deoderant:
I have lots of deoderants too.. haha, i tend to use Sure though. I usually buy any of the upside down Sure as they smell really nice and keep my under arm skin soft and mosturised.

Make-up

Right so whats not on the list i don't use (:

Mascara:
Either...
-Collection 2000 Waterproof Mascara
-Miss Sporty "Be Connected" Mascara

Eyeshadow Base:
I tend to just use a mouse eyeshadow in either peach or a silvery colour.

Eyeshadow:
I like to try new looks everyday, but i if i don't have time i tend to use a bronze/natural look from the 17 compact that was out near christmas.. I'll take pictures :)

Bronzer/Blusher/Foundation:
fcuk - I usually put it all over my face, just to cover up any un-even skin tones and to make me a bit more flawless. I don't cake it on though haha

Highliter:
Well, i don't really use highly but i'm soon going to be recieving some from the "Eyeko" range (http://www.eyeko.com/). I will show you in a blog :)

Lipgloss:
I love H&M but to be honest i don't like the fact they test on animals so i tend not to buy make-up from their brand. I usually buy Mini-Bourjois the breathe freshener one.. I'm not quite sure what it's called lol.

Lipstick:
I'm not mad on lipstick but i do have quite a collection! My fave colours are deep reds and bronzes.

Accessories:
Lipcote - I love love love this! It keeps you lipstick on your lips all day, its a mirical worker! I highly recommend ;)

Tell me what you use via a comment :)
Thanks for reading!

Miss Sporty "Be Connected" Range - Eyeliners & Mascara

In february i recieved some free make-up from Miss Sporty. There were 2 eyeliners and a black mascara. I recieved these products to try them out personally for Miss Sporty, a week before they were launched in the shops. As i have already given my review, i will simply copy and paste it here. (Note* I've added a bit more to the reviews which i forgot to add at the time i was writing it..)
Purple Eyeliner: It doesn't really show up unless you put lots on. The eyeliner brush was really thin and soft which i found was easy to apply the eyeliner. It lasted all day, and was small enough to fit in my pocket without having to have a bag to carry all my stuff around.

Green Eyeliner: Showed up alot more than the purple eyeliner and is an amazing colour! It turns blue whens its on though, but i quite like the colour. As i said, this also lasted all day, and was also small enough to fit in my pocket haha.
Black Mascara: I loved the mascara, i didn't have to apply very much to make my eyelashes longer and thicker. It could have been a bit thicker, it wasn't running down my face or anything, but i would definatley have liked it a alot more if it was thicker.
Overall Review: I will definatley be buying these products again (:
Rating (10 being the best): Purple Eyeliner, 7/10. Green Eyeliner, 9/10. Black Mascara, 10/10.
Thanks for reading and sorry that the pictures were slightly blurry, i don't have a proper camera so unfortunatley i have to use my phone.

First Post!

So, for starters.. My name's Jade, i'm from the UK, and i'm a make-up maniac.
I will be blogging what make-up i've tried out along with my review of the product. I will try to be as proffesional as possible (:
Erm, well the reason i decided to make a blog like this is because i have a sort-of friend who has a simalar blog like this, and it made me want to give my reviews too. I will post a link to her blog if i get permission.
If you have any questions, just comment on the latest blog post ;)
Sorry this wasn't a very long post, it's just i have nothing to say haha.
Thanks for reading anyway (:
