Urban Decay Ultimate Basics Palette





This new palette features 12 exclusive matte eyeshadows—you won’t find any of these shades in any other Naked palette! The shadows are encased in a stunning rose gold palette with a huge interior mirror and double-ended eye brush. If you’ve never tried our matte shadows, you’ll be blown away by how different they are. Other mattes can be “skippy” – uneven on application or difficult to blend. But EVERY shade in Naked Ultimate Basics features our proprietary Pigment Infusion System™, which gives the formula a velvety texture, rich colour, serious staying power and blendability. 

The shadows include a range of warm and cool neutrals that blend easily together for all-matte eye looks or with the other Naked palettes. The range of shades in this palette is fantastic, it includes essentials like pale cream, soft taupe, warm brown and matte black along with a few more daring shades like terracotta, gunmetal and rose.
The shades include:
  • Blow (pale nude)
  • Nudie (nude pink)
  • Commando (light taupe)
  • Tempted (pale brown)
  • Instinct (medium taupe)
  • Lethal (burgundy)
  • Pre-Game (pale yellow)
  • Extra Bitter (burnt orange)
  • Faith (medium warm brown)
  • Lockout (neutral brown)
  • Magnet (smoky grey)
  • Blackjack (warm black)
The formula is beautiful!.. Matte eyeshadows can apply patchy or look chalky, but these are all beautiful, buttery and highly-pigmented. I experienced a teeny bit of fall-out when applying the darker shades like Magnet and Blackjack to my lashline, but expected even with the pigmented, quality shadows. Put it on your Christmas lists or treat yourselves! This palette is not to be missed! A great palette for maturing skin as it is extremely flattering or anyone who loves a matte shadow.

Available for £38.50 from Urban Decay or from all good beauty stores.

Too Faced 'Born This Way Naturally Radiant' concealer in Very Fair

Instantly hide imperfections, vanish the appearance of dark circles, and blur the look of lines and wrinkles for complete coverage so undetectable, they'll think you were Born This Way.





I think the collection is pretty good in terms of shades (from “Very Fair” to “Deep”), but with any line, there’s always someone who can’t find a good match. Sometimes I can’t even find my shade with brands who specialise in having “every shade”. That being said, I found a good match with Too Faced’s Born This Way Concealer in “very Light.” I am on the pale side with neutral more-toward-pink undertones. Some pale shades tend to be too pink or too yellow, but “very Light” worked out perfectly for me and really brightens my under eye area, the formula is super moisturising and I love the faint smell of coconut I smell when applying, The Naturally Radiant Concealer is made with coconut water and hyaluronic acid to moisturise without being oily, and Alpine Rose is to brighten and promote elasticity.

The shades - 
Very Fair – pale with pink undertones
Fair – light with pink undertones
Light – golden undertones
Light Medium – medium with peach undertones
Medium – tan with golden undertones
Medium Tan – pink undertones
Tan – golden undertones
Deep Tan – golden undertones
Dark – golden undertones
Deep – pink undertones
I'm loving using mine along with the BTW foundation, they are match made in heaven.. Super long lasting, provide full cover, non drying, just flawless!! Available from all good beauty stores for £20.00.

Scrub Love - Mint Temptation.






I love to give my skin a good exfoliation at least once a week and usually buy scrubs in tubes or tubs, but when I was offered to try a dry coffee scrub I was intrigued! Rub coffee all over your body to exfoliate?! ....It is amazing! My skin felt tingly, cool and super soft. The minty coffee scent definitely woke me up.. Not very good at nine o'clock at night! This is definitely one for waking you up in the morning... The next day my skin felt even softer and this continued for several days after.

With it's perfect blend of organic ingredients and a mint kick will leave anyone tempted.. Tea tree mixed with amazing argan oil will cool and moisturize. While more than a hint of mint will stimulate circulation with this organic scrub - leaving you polished to perfection.

Ground coffee is nature's finest exfoliator. It’ll buff away dead skins cells without damaging the delicate new skin underneath. A high caffeine content in our fresh grinds stimulates circulation, to promote healing in problem areas.

Peppermint oil - Naturally anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and pore cleansing leads you to a clearer complexion and minty freshness.

Tea Tree oil - You didn’t know your skin needed this, but we did. It’s antiseptic properties make it great for healing and softening, plus it helps soothe tired muscles.

Dead sea salts are Full of minerals, magnesium and potassium, it’s the best salt to scrub and rub on your skin to stimulate and relax deep into the tissue.

Argan Oil - The reputation precedes this not-so-secret celebrity favourite. High in fatty acids and vitamin E, it’s easily absorbed into your skin to moisturize and combat dark spots - leaving your soft and glowing!

Aloe Vera Is Famous world round for it’s anti-septic cooling and healing properties. It’s also packed with vitamins A, B, C & E and Beta Carotene which give it anti-aging properties as it nourishes your skin.

Urban Decay Bronzer in Sunkissed



If you swore off powder bronzers because they always felt dry and applied unevenly, you’ll be blown away by how different Beached Bronzer is, use this formula after contouring to make her skin look less flat and more dimensional. Finely milling the powder gives it an ultra creamy texture that feels amazing on your skin, wait until you see how easy it is to use! Apply Beached Bronzer dry, or try it 
wet for even longer wear. Either way, you get a foolproof, streak-free application that leaves you with a perfect glow. Our innovative, versatile powder formula works great for contouring too.

Available in two shades - Sunkissed & Bronzed - The Beached Bronzers are super smooth to the touch, very creamy, and don’t feel or look powdery to me once blended on my skin. I think both shades are pretty universal, but that will depend on how you intend to wear them. I chose sunkissed as I have fair skin and this bronzer looks and feels amazing! Since I got it, I've not put it down. I think this is the first powder bronzer I've owned that can be used wet or dry! So far I've only used it dry as it just the right shade for my skin to achieve a healthy, natural bronzed complexion.. I love it! The packaging is beautiful and summery, it will definitely brighten up your make up bag.

Urban Decay afterglow - Aura Highlight





Urban Decay have released three powder highlighters, and as you'd expect, they're gorgeous.  Finely milled and aiming to give a glow rather than just powdered shimmer.

Afterglow 8-Hour Powder Highlighter isn’t your average highlighter; Urban Decay took the time to finely mill the powder until it was just right. The result: a lightweight (yet luxurious) feel and a super-soft, creamy texture. 

Afterglow Highlighter goes on sheer and blends easily. Use a little or a lot; the wearable formula always applies beautifully, no matter how much you build it. And the shades are suitable for any skin tone. Afterglow creates a glowy, strobed effect that lasts all day—and never leaves just a powdery dusting of shimmer. It’s even infused with light-diffusing pigments to enhance and perfect the skin. 

There are three shades available; Sin is a glowing peachy white gold. Fireball is a glowing coral and Aura is a stunning ice pink.  I've been using Aura, If your skin is pale and you find many highlighters too golden, you'll love Aura - it's an almost icy, cool toned, duochrome pinky/opal colour, it contains no glitter, just a gorgeous ice pink glow.  It is lovely & pigmented, but if applied lightly it'll give you a beautiful subtle glow, or apply it heavily for a more obvious strobing effect, perfect for a nice out. I already have my eye on sin...

Available from  Urban Decay  For £19.00.

Innovo


A fab new device that could take the strain out of exercises undertaken by millions of women after they give birth. Innovo is designed to be strapped to your upper thighs, this £249 gadget is a discreet way of giving a workout to your pelvic floor muscles – the cause of a little talked-about and embarrassing problem which affects more than five million British women!


The Innovo – developed by Irish firm Atlantic Therapeutics – comprises straps inside special shorts that house conductive pads which are secured around your upper thighs. These are connected to a small controller which can be worn around your neck to allow more movement, it delivers a mild electric impulse to the nerves that run down the front of your leg and branch up into your abdomen. This causes the pelvic floor – a sheet of muscles that supports the bladder and urethra – to contract 180 times during a 30-minute session, strengthening the muscles to improve your symptoms.



I have been testing Innovo for the past 12 weeks as I'd recently become a new mum fir the second time and thought I'd give it a whirl, as I'd been rather lax with my pelvic floor exercises!. The whole set up is extremely easy and straight forward... But the first couple of uses were quite fiddily, the pads are extremely sticky and stuck to everything they touched, but once I'd got them into position, I could sit and watch TV, read a book or cook my evening meal for thirty minutes, the sensation is a bit like mild pins and needles - not painful in the slightest and has to be built up, as I thought I'd be clever and ramp it up on my first go and nearly fell over! Ha lesson learnt! It's extremely easy to control and as the timer is on a cord you can pop it around you neck and forget about it, so much better than doing a million manuel pelvic floors! - who has time for that?!..I started to notice improvement around my 3rd-4th week of using Innovo 4-5 times a week, after the full 12 weeks I was impressed with the results.

A great little gadget, a little pricey but in my opinion it is worth it as the benefits and outcome will change some people's lives, no more embarrassing situations and giving you your before child body back. I can now sneeze with the knowledge I no longer have to cross my legs!! 

If you'd like an Innovo of your very own you can pick one up from www.Restore the Floor.com for £249 or 6 instalments of £41.50.

Urban Decay Ruby Rose Collection - #Lipstickismyvice

Urban Decay have released a HUNDRED! lipsticks old and new, with Ruby Rose as the face of the launch, I was very excited to be sent five stunning shades from the collection, I just knew they were going to be amazing and as you can imagine with 100 lipsticks you'd have lot's of beautiful shades and finishes to make your little hearts flutter! 


The Vice Collection combines everything from new shades to cult favourites you thought you'd never return and several shades which were inspired by other lip products, Eyeshadows and Eye Pencils.


Encased in their iconic Urban Decay packaging, vice lipsticks come in a beautiful gunmetal bullet-like casing with a gold base the stamped lettering adds a little something extra. In true Urban Decay style, each lipstick also features the embossed UD.


The five shades I received are -

BackTalk - is a Comfort Matte finish and is described as being a mauve/pink nude lipstick with cool undertones, I'd say it had a slight satin finish, certainly a shade that anyone can wear. This is my pick of the bunch as I'm more of a neutral lip lover - sorry! 

714 - this shade was originally released in the Gwen Stefani collection, it is such a stunning shade. With a Mega Matte finish, 714 is bold, it is bright and it is described as being a medium-dark red with warm orange undertones, it is a stunning shade and I did enjoy wearing it.

Firebird - is a cream finish and is described as being a deep fuchsia with cool blue undertones which just gives it a perfect finish, due to the blue it brightens teeth making them look whiter, this is my favourite bright shade and again was in Gwen's collection.

Pandemonium - is a Mega Matte finish and is a very dark, almost red toned purple which has a satin finish.  I'm on the fence with this one, it is definitely out of my comfort zone! But the lipstick itself is highly pigmented and lovely to apply.

Big Bang - is a metallized finish and is described as being a bright pink sparkle shade. It is a raspberry pink shade with quite subtle, cool undertones and it has a light pink micro-glitter which reflects amazingly in the light. A gorgeous sparkly lippie that feels comfortable on your lips, I couldn't feel any glitter particles, this is one pretty looking shade. 

At just £15 a lipstick and with 100 shades to choose from there are shades for everyone whether your mood is looking for bold brights, Vampy or subtle neutral shades, they are available in 6 different finishes, 
  • Mega Matte — super intense matte
  • Comfort Matte — their creamiest matte
  • Cream — the original creamy luxury formula
  • Metallized — cream with a high level of pearl pigments
  • Sheer — a punch of colour, with a sheer, shiny finish
  • Sheer Shimmer — slightly transparent finish with floating pearl and a smooth texture.
Urban Decay have been on fire this year and have released lot's of great new products, I have a few new releases from the Naked skin range which I'm currently putting to the test.

What will you be running out to buy from the Ruby Rose collection?

Lookfantastic June 2016 Beauty Box #LFJETSETTER


The June #LFJETSETTER Box is full of beauty treats perfect for popping into your hand-luggage this Summer. All in travel sizes, unlock the essentials for whiter teeth, beautiful skin and a glowing tan in your Lookfantastic Beauty Box this month.
Elle Magazine
A great bonus to the box! 

Tan Organic Self Tan Oil  £24.99/100ml
The first beauty product in the box is TanOrganic self tanning oil.  I've heard great things about TanOrganic - you apply the oil to freshly exfoliated skin and can expect the results to last for around four days. I'm excited to see how an oil rather than a cream works, so am looking forward to trying this out!

Naobay Oxygenating Cream Moisturiser £32.95/50ml
With 98.83% natural ingredients - with 12% coming from organic farming, certified by Ecocert - this is a skincare product that I'm excited about! It's full of vegetable oils (such as Sesame oil and Sweet Almond oil) and is marketed towards all skin types. For me, this will be a great introduction to a new natural and organic beauty brand, this is a very generous 22ml sample size.

Caudalie Premier Cru Eye Cream £49/15ml
I love seeing Caudalie products in Look Fantastic's beauty boxes, I have loved all the products I've tried from this brand, such quality, Described as being a wonder cream, it helps to improve and correct dark circles, wrinkles, puffiness and dullness, leaving your eye area looking younger and brighter. Silver, copper and iridescent pearlisers visibly reduce the appearance of dark circles by 
illuminating the skin to give the illusion of bright and radiant skin. I know I will enjoy using this 7ml 
sample size. 

Spa Magik Beauty Balm - in Natural £13.50/50ml
This BB cream offers "light tinted coverage" with a shade that's most suited towards fair skin tones. The formulation is very creamy and easy to blend, but the colour is very sheer once applied to the skin. I do like using lighter bases during the summer, I will see how this compares to my other BB Creams.

Mr Blanc Tooth Whitening Strip £24.99/14 strips
These whitening strips are designed to be applied for 30 minutes (not suitable for pregnant women) I'm looking forward to trying these as I have tried the Crest strips before & liked them, everyone loves a pearly white smile. I'm sure many people will be excited to see these included in this month's Look Fantastic beauty box - I love that you get three to try.

I haven't tried any products from Cowshed, I'm always happy to receive a hand cream  as I think they're useful to have around and I tend to use them pretty quickly, it's rich and hydrating without being too thick. However, the fragrance is unlike anything I've smelt before! It contains essential oils of Grapefruit, Coriander and Cinnamon.

Korres Basil LemonShower gel  £8/250ml
Korres shower gel has a lovely summer fragrance! I love citrus scents. The size of the sample is perfect for a weekend away, but wouldn't be enough to last you through a week of holiday.

Another great box in my opinion, lot's of big name brands and a selection of lovely, useful products! I'd love to see more make up in these boxes.

Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette


It was one of the most anticipated sequels of the decade, Urban Decay Naked 2 follows in the footsteps of the Naked palette, (straight up - the world's best-selling palette of all time). This Urban Decay eyeshadow palette is filled with 12 pigment-rich, taupe and greige neutral eyeshadows, including FIVE EXCLUSIVE NEW shades. Feast your eyes on shades ranging from pale to deep, matte to sparkly. This collection lets you achieve many neutral looks, smoky dramatic eyes, and everything in between. Let's just say there's a whole new way to get Naked! The case has an art-school inspired look with hinged lid taupe metal with embossed chocolate brown artwork. It's smooth, modern and cool to the touch - a real tactile experience. Plus, palette also features a double-ended, cruelty-free Good Karma Shadow/Crease Brush (exclusive to this palette). 


  • Shade Descriptions:
    - Foxy: Cream Bisque Matte
    - Half Baked: Golden Bronze Shimmer
    - Bootycall: Cork Shimmer
    - Chopper: Copper Shimmer W/Silver Micro-Glitter
    - Tease: Creamy Pale Brown Matte
    - Snakebite: Dark Bronze Shimmer
    - Suspect: Pale Golden Beige Shimmer
    - Pistol: Light Grayish Brown Shimmer
    - Verve: Oyster Shimmer
    - YDK: Cool Bronze Shimmer
    - Busted: Deep Brown Shimmer
    - Blackout: Blackest Black Matte.  

  • The Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette is much more cool toned than the original Naked palette, and it contains a wider selection of lighter shades which I love as I feel it’s more flexible to use on lot's of different looks, I definitely love this palette, but my heart steers more towards the warmer, more bronze Naked palette as those colours tend to make my blue eyes pop. But this is such a beautiful palette as I love that it contains three matte shades; all of which are staple shades you could use for any and every makeup look.. a highlight or base shade, a crease shade and an eyeliner shade. You also have the the gorgeous shimmers and the stunning glitter of chopper to create many different looks. My favourite shades from the palette would have to be; Half baked, Chopper and YDK although I honestly love every single shade. I love using this palette as the weather gets warmer and it just looks perfect with bronzer and a neutral lip.

As with all the Naked Palettes this is available for £38.50 from Urban Decay.co.uk 

Which is your favourite Urban Decay Palette?
