Product Review: Barry M Brow Kit

   
   
   
Okay guys, so this is one of my newest beauty buys, and I am in LOVE! I've always used an eyebrow pencil for when I decide to draw on my brows (which is pretty much everyday...), and as you may know if you've used a pencil before it is very hard to get clear and precise shapes for your brows, which is annoying because I like mine squared off and defined! (I've done a before and after pic below, just look at the difference!!) 
I'd seen a lot of youtubers suggesting the Benefit 'brow-zing' kit, but I just didn't have the money for it! So I looked for a cheaper alternative, but still from a brand I could trust! 
I've always bought lipsticks from Barry M and they have been fault proof for the price! So when I saw they did a brow kit too, I decided to go for it! I bought it for a mere £5.99 from superdrug! And honestly, it is amazing! 
It has a wax, a dark powder, and a highlighting powder, along with a double ended brush and the cutest tweezers! The instructions are so easy to follow: simply draw the shape of how you want your eyebrows to look with the angled brush and wax, go over this with the darker powder and rounded brush and then highlight underneath with the lighter powder (I just use my little finger for this). 
I'm not sure whether they do other shades of the kit, but honestly? For the amazing price and how good it is? I couldn't fault it! 
I've had a few compliments on my brows since I've started using it (weird I know!) 

Lots of love guys

How Exciting...

Hi guys!
So, this is my first blog, and I thought I would give you a little insight into what it is (hopefully) going to be like. I guess I'm kind of giving you an insight in what topics I'm wanting to cover etc etc. I'm ridiculously excited about starting this up. I don't want to be 'just another fashion blog', I want to be a place to share not only my thoughts, opinions and reactions, but yours too!
I want to cover new beauty buys, and hot new trends, of both make-up and clothing, giving advise based on my own experiences and generally just trying to help!
I'll be doing hauls of the latest things I've bought and where I got them from!
I intend to get back to everyone and listen to feedback you give me to improve my blog!
If you need advise, I'll be right here! Honestly.

I'm going to try and post as often as possible, but at the moment I'm going through my A-Levels so its a very tough time, so please let me off if I miss a week!

Please follow my Instagram, at the moment it is more of a personal one, but it will be my main one i use for posting almost 'mini-blogs' and I will always try my best to reply to any comments and follow you guys back! It's @elle__louise (two underscores because someone already had that name!)

Everyone of you is precious, remember that!

Lots of Love
