MaxFactor this year have honestly up'd their game. Trying not to sound Biased or any of the sort but the gold packaging and repackaging of some of their core products is pretty amazing. But I thought I'd show you a sneak peak of what is coming to Maxfactor Counters and Stands (soon).
We have some new blushers and Lipstick/Balms coming soon too. If you have noticed if you popped into a boots store in the last couple of weeks and had a favourite blusher and noticed it was out of stock, here is the reason why.
Available in Boots and most other stores for those wondering, on Wednesday 21st January 2015, I can finally say these Creme Puff Blushers will be available to purchase at £8.99. Creme Puff Blushers have Talc same ingredient with the Creme Puff Powders. You might have seen these images pop up on my Instagram as I got so excited when I go ahold of these. There will be 6 new shades to replace the old ones and they are indeed Baked Blushers.
Starting with the packaging, I for one imagined Milani Cosmetics Blushers straight away. It's sleek, posh-looking and you will want to have them out showing them off. The texture and feel are velvety soft, Baked Blushers are liquids that get baked so they are softer then normal powders and can be used wet or dry. As mentioned, there will be 6 shades available 2 of which can be used as contour and bronzers.
Shades from Light to more intense shades Include: Lovely Pink, Nude Mauve, Seductive Pink, Lavish Mauve, Alluring Rose, Gorgeous Berries.
Overall, I do think these little numbers will be a hit, I will be posting individual shades and swatches for each in the coming days so keep your eyes pealed for these posts. There are loads more new items coming to MaxFactor this year and I'm excited to see what products will be out soon.
If you want to pick these up they are available in Boots from Wednesday 21st January 2015, I definitely recommend you check out www.boots.com

Hey beauties! It's Monday 12th January and today's post is an exciting #BHTWITTERPARTY in collaboration with The Bloggers Hub. Scroll down to the end for an exclusive Get to Know me Tag in collaboration with none only The Bloggers Hub. I got to collaborate to two brands - Make Up Nails Tan and Chic Hangers. The two brands where kind enough to send me some items to feature in this post.
The FOTD Pictures are focused on the products sent in from Make Up Nails Tan which were kind enough to send me three items from BH Cosmetics. As you can see I went for a lovely Purple-brown eye look with a Bold Strawberry-Red Lip Gorgeous!
Moving on to the Fashion Item sent by Chic Hangers to showcase was a stunning Black Pencil Skirt. Everyone needs a simple basic pencil skirt and you can pair it up with a basic jumper or even a smart cute blouse. I took pictures on different days and I went for the bold red lip and a plain Jane Look as I didn't want my Makeup to take over the outfit.
I Paired the look with some gorgeous Nude Pointed Heels from Forever 21. Pencil skirts are a staple for every Office - look themed outfit you wanted to go for. Obviously I had to go for a messy bun and there you have it! Below we also have some ideas of how you can pair a pencil skirt.
Overall, I hope you all enjoy this and enjoy the video below on an updated get to know me tag with The Bloggers Hub!
Happy New Year beautiful people! It's a new year and i'm back strong with a video with products that have been the talk of the town this week. It's in fact the NEW Collection from REAL TECHNIQUES - BOLD METALS COLLECTION. Lets all take a moment to drool over the physical side of the brushes - gorgeous metal casings in Gold, Rose Gold and Silver. I don't know about you but THIS IS every Makeup Artist/Makeup Junkie's Dream to have beautiful brushes in their makeup case/vanity.
Available in Boots (UK) and Ulta (US) for those wondering. I was lucky enough to pick up 3 as I treated myself as a pre-birthday spend. I was not shocked by the price due to their metal casings and construction of the brushes themselves. There were talk going around how some will not purchase these due to the price and that they shouldn't be found in stores like Boots - Well there are loads of items in Boots that are way over that price and still sell so I don't see the problem there.
I Love the fact that Both Sam and Nic (Pixiwoo/Real Techniques) came up with a Premium Brush Set - Not sure if it's limited edition. I honestly wouldn't marked these brushes for those who are on a budget - these are for those who are collectors, makeup artists or makeup junkies in general who want that perfect brush for a particular application. They are synthetic brushes which means they are cruelty free and also white bristles which is great since you can see how much product you have on the brush and also great for when you are cleaning your brushes. Prices range from £10-25
Here is the full low down on the products mentioned in this video
100 Arched Powder £25 BUY
300 Tapered Blush £24 BUY
301 Flat Contour £22 BUY
Overall, as mentioned in this post and in my video below, it's great quality for the price, I look forward to reviewing each individual brush here on my blog to give you in-site on each brush I purchased.
