Fast & Easy Ways To Make Your Eyes Pop!

Tuesday, December 19, 2023

No comments

Want all eyes to be on your eyes, but don't have the energy or the time for a full cut crease? No worries, there are plenty of fast and easy ways to make sure your eyes pop and are the centre of your look. Read on to find out what they are.

Eye drops 

One of the best beauty tips for eyes there has to be using eye drops. It is fast as all you need to do is drop the specially formulated liquid like the content of the Optrex Dazzling eye drops into your eyes and you’ll get a brighter, refreshed more sparkly-eye look. Plenty of chemists and pharmacies do their brand of this product too, usually at a vastly reduced price! 


The great thing about eyedrops is that they are portable too, so you can take them with you anywhere, and you won’t need to be at home in front of your dressing table to get the look you want. Also, keeping your eyes well hydrated and moisturised makes a lot of sense, and a good eye drop will do this for you. 


False lashes 

Another way to make sure your eyes pop is to use false lashes. Unfortunately, many people are put off using false lashes because they believe they are fiddly and hard to apply. The funny thing is that by investing in the right kind of lash extensions, nothing could be further from the truth. Indeed, by choosing a well-established and quality brand that offers pre-made lashes and glue you can get a professional look in a matter of seconds that will blow everyone that sees you away. 


Holo Eyeshadow 


Holo eyeshadow is a big trend right now. Yet, applying it perfectly can be a time-consuming chore. That is why my solution is to use Holo eyeshadow imperfectly. That’s right with this method there is no need to spend hours doing your full lid or getting both sides perfectly equal. 


Instead, you just take some of the holo powder or cream and dab it in the outer corner of both eyes. This will give you that rainbow flash of holo, drawing people’s attention to your eyes with minimal effort and time. Not to mention that it's a great way to wear holo without it being overwhelming while still keeping that avant-garde edge. 


Coloured Contacts


You can also make sure your eyes pop with colour very quickly, easily and without having to apply any eye shadow at all by using coloured contact lenses. Just like the ones we use to correct our site, coloured contacts are designed to be worn comfortably in the eyes. 


The main difference from optical lenses is that these are tinted to give your eyes a unique and different look. Indeed, by choosing coloured contact lenses you can switch your eye colour from natural shades such as browns and blues to bright green, delicate violets, and intense aquas. Any of which will make sure all eyes are on you, and that any look you wear pops.

Top Christmas Beauty Gifts: Ideas for the Beauty Enthusiast in Your Life

Sunday, December 17, 2023

No comments

It's that time of year when we are all finding gifts for our loved ones and there are some beauty steals to be had as all our favourite products all year round become gift sets and they tend to have a lot of full-sized items in so you are getting more beauty products for your money!

So it was only right for me to pull together a little beauty gift guide to inspire you should you seek a gift for yourself or a loved one. 

Vieve Skin Nova - A cult favourite on TikTok right now Vieve is the makeup brand created by Youtuber and make-up artist Jamie Genevieve. I've followed Jamie's journey online for years and still follow her now. She's done a great job with Vieve, and I've enjoyed every product I've tried so far. This one is definitely on my radar for my next purchase!

Hugo Boss The Scent for Her - With notes of pink pepper and green mandarin this is a stunning fragrance. I have gone through a full one of these this past year and I've genuinely lost count of how many compliments I've received when I have worn this. The normal reaction is that people can't believe it's not a Gucci or a Prada scent. It's currently on offer at Boots so if you get the chance to smell this in your local perfume shop / Boots store you won't regret it!

Giorgi Armani My Way Eau De Parfum - If you are looking for a fragrance to add to your beauty collection that isn't too over powering but still noticeable it's this one from Giorgio Armani. I have this and it currently lives in my car for an extra spritz on the go should I feel that I need it! I have to say though if I had to pick between this and Hugo Boss 'The Scent' I would choose Hugo Boss but this parfum from Giorgio Armani is still absolutely stunning!

Caudalie Beauty Elixir - Another product that's gone viral is this beauty elixir from Caudalie. This has been in my makeup routine for a few years now and I love how multifunctional this product is. This mist can help prep your skin for makeup application, act as a setting spray or just be used to refresh throughout the day. This product also has a mini version which is perfect for you if you don't want to spend on the full size straight away. 



Patrick Ta Major Dimension Eyeshadow Palette - This palette is literally a nude/brown/gold eyeshadow lover's dream. It is stunning! These are the sorts of colours I tend to go towards whether it's creating a daytime or an evening look. I wouldn't normally spend this much on a palette or suggest spending this much but it's Christmas and everyone deserves a treat right?

Fenty Beauty Quench Beauty & Skin Set - This set is actually on the Boots site right now as a star gift and costs only £42! This time of year is great for being able to afford some of the biggest beauty brands for a fraction of the price. This set includes 4 full-size products making each product only £10.50 each! This set has the Hydra Vizor moisturiser, mascara, fat water and a gloss bomb in a gorgeous red shade. 

Too Faced Beauty Wonderland Gift Set - Like I mentioned before Boots can do no wrong this time of year! This set from Too Faced Beauty has 4 x full-size products for only £42 including their super popular 'better than sex' mascara. The Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara is one I also go back to and it's actually what I have been using right now!

MAC Merry Must Haves Kit - When you buy anything MAC makeup-related yes it's worth it but it's always going to cost you a small fortune to purchase. I like to stock up on my favourite MAC products in gift sets like these. I love the setting spray and the mascara and with this set, you get them as full-size products and you're able to try another 2 full-size products as well!

Vieve Treasure Tin Pesca Set - As I've mentioned earlier in this post I am a big fan of Vieve and I've been wanting to try this blusher for a while! This blusher comes in a set with a match lip dew for only £29.25 in the sale!

Lastly, we have a mascara which in my opinion is just as good (if not slightly better) than the Too Faced 'Better than Sex' mascara. The only slight downside is I find that the NARS one doesn't last as long uses-wise than Too Faced. You can pick up the NARS mascara gift set on offer right now for a full size and a mini mascara for less than the RRP of the full size! It's an absolute steal if you ask me!

Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Jet Set - £20.70 (was £28)
Rich 42 Colour Palette - £12.50 (was £25)
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask - £16.10 (was £19)
Mini Nudies Best Sellers Kit - £38.45 (was £55)
Coco & Eve Hair Rejuve Kit - £34.40 (was £43)
MAC Stacked up Mascara Duo - £22.50 (was £30)


One thing for sure is that there are so many offers online at the moment and it's hard to distinguish what is a bargain, what's a good deal and what just really isn't worth it. I thought I would look at the Beauty Bay site as they have so many deals and I picked out some of my favourite deals at the moment online.

Anastasia Beverly Hills do some incredible eyeshadow palettes and the Fall Romance and Primrose palettes are stunning! The Fall Romance eyeshadow palette is perfect for creating some stunning glittery looks over the festive period. 

Probably one of the most popular brands online right now beauty wise is Sol De Janeiro and so if it's a brand you want to try I would definitely think about making a purchase over the weekend to save a few £! I have a couple of the fragrance mists and they are literally like a holiday in a bottle!

There were some steals to be had when it comes to MAC cosmetics and the lashes-to-lips kit included a Mini MAC stack mascara, full-size lipstick in relentlessly red and a full-size prep and prime lip primer for only £20!

If you are looking for a steal this Black Friday then definitely look at Beauty Bay!
