NARS Kalahari Eyeshadow Duo
I don't know if I've mentioned this on my blog before but NARS is my favorite make up brand of all time. I am yet to be disappointed by a product I've purchased from NARS, I love them! I really wanted a new duo from them as I was so impressed by the other one I had previously purchased. I opted for Kalahari as the colour screamed "WEARABLE" "EVERYDAY" "ESSENTIAL".
The colour pay off from these eye shadows is impeccable and the finish is gorgeous, If I HAD to compare them to a MAC finish it would be Veluxe Pearl but in my opinion these really cannot be compared. The gold on the left is a beautiful light shade with slight browny, gingery tones to it. The right shade is similar to satin taupe but a little warmer and in my option is a lot nicer for definition.
I really cannot fault the NARS duos they are incredible. If you find the perfect shades for you and your eyes you will honestly use them everyday and they will be a staple in your make up bag. They are a little on the pricey side compared to MAC but I seriously think they are worth it and I'd highly recommend branching out into the world of NARS shadows.
Thank you for reading!

Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit Review
I've been using Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit for about a month now so I've gathered a good opinion on it! First of all I'd like to address how I'm the shade "Porcelain", the palest they do. I've heard a lot of people talk about ow this product comes with the "Pale Yellow" powder and how it makes such a difference. I was excited to see that until I noticed my shade came with the "White" powder! I was extremely disappointed and still don't understand why my shade is different?!
They hit the nail on the head when they named this "Creamy Concealer", it is definitely the creamiest concealer I have ever used! It almost feels like it's got moisturizing properties in it but don't quote me on that! I apply the concealer with my finger then blend it with a MAC 224.
The coverage of the concealer is very good, it makes me dark circles vanish! However I don't feel like the white powder does anything at all! I guess it does brighten underneath a little but thats it, and the concealer does enough brightening anyway.
All in all I do really enjoy using this concealer and will continue to use it! Some people have said it has creased on them, but I haven't had any noticeable creasing. I am impressed with this concealer however the £23.50 price tag puts me off re purchasing a little bit! I think next time I will purchase the shade up. You can purchase the Creamy Concealer on it's own for £17.00.
