So yesterday I went into Boots as I wanted some new tweezers. As I've been told numerous times, Tweezerman are the best brand of tweezers yet I hesitated to spend over £20 on a piece of metal. Due to an awesome 3 for 2 deal going on, I decided to give it a try and, so far, I absolute love it. It's so much easier than your average tweezers, ah I love it.
Whilst I was in the accessory/non-make up section, I came across the brush section where I saw the Real Techniques brushes, created by Samantha Chapman - one of the Pixiwoo sisters - (a make-up artist on YouTube), that are constantly raved about on blogs and YouTube. I was tempted to buy one of the sets they offer, either the face or eye kit, when I knew I wouldn't get full use out of them so I decided to stick with the promising powder brush. I desperately needed a new one anyway as I hate using a kabuki. As soon as I got home I tested it out, and already I love it. The bristles are SO soft, it's hard to believe that it's synthetic. The quality of this brush is comparable to all MAC brushes (especially the 150) and it collects the perfect amount of product on the brush. I might do a full review on more of the brushes when I get my hands on them (which I will).
That left me with two items and I needed three in order to save some money. I saw the Japonesque section and I wanted to try out their angled eyeliner brush. First of all I have never tried a single Japonesque product before and the only person I've heard talk about it is Vivianna (from Viviana Does Makeup) so I was most intrigued to try one out. I really love eyeliner so I thought it was a safe bet.
I wore a freaking awesome baggy t-shirt with the face of a white tiger printed on the front as well as light blue washed denim shorts. The best part of my outfit? My bright purple Vans.
Here is a random picture of my hair. Seriously, I don't know whats wrong with it at the moment. It's two colours! The roots are dark brown and fade into a light brown/weird ginger colour. And the weird thing is, is that I have never dyed my hair. Ever. I asked my mum and she said it's because of the sun. Hardly believable considering we've had sun for two days! Any-who, I'm getting it cut on half term, so I'll show you what it looks like after I get it styled. Yay!
