Just after Christmas I received a parcel from my lovely friend Amy. I was so excited when I opened it and saw what she had sent me. It was honestly the best late Christmas present I have ever received. She really does know me very well. With a box full of everything from beauty, stationary, home decor and much more. I felt so lucky. But today I want to talk to you in particular about the makeup she sent me. Wow wasn't I a lucky girl. She sent me the Flatter Box by Soap and Glory and also Hoola by Benefit. So lets talk about them...
Now I'm a massive lover of Soap and Glory makeup but I havent tried a great deal of it. I have just loved what I have tried. Well the Flatter Box has pretty much everything you need for basic makeup, just without foundation and concealer. But you could honestly do a full face of makeup with this.
In it you get..
- Thick and fast high definition collagen coat mascara
- Supercat liquid black eyeliner pen
- Lid stuff eyeshadow in copper, choccy and cream soda
- Glow all out luminizing face powder
- Sexy mother pucker lip gloss in plums up
- Eye shadow and half moon brushes
So yes as you can see this is kinda a spectacular kit. It honestly deserves all the praise it can get. The eye shadows are all beautiful shades which can be worn alone or together, either way creating a perfectly natural eye look. The mascara in my opinion could never disappoint. I have used the regular thick and fast before and it was my holy grail mascara for some time. I just love the way it applies so smoothly to my lashes, it never clumps. The supercat liquid eyeliner pen did intrigue me. Mainly because I am no good with liquid eyeliner and two I'm just no good with eye liner in general. But I will say this one does make application feel easy. I mean it still doesn't look that great when I apply it but hopefully with some practice I might be able to ace this one. It is no secret I am a lover of the sexy mother puckers. I love the way they apply, the way they feel and just how they always look flawless. Plums up is a beautiful glittery plum/pink shade. It honestly looks stunning on your lips. The highlighter is defiantly my favourite thing out of the whole box. The shimmer it gives to your cheekbones is absolutely flawless. in a very subtle pink shade it is perfect dusted across your cheeks for that extra glow we all want. The brushes that come with this kit are perfect and make the application of the products perfect.
The packaging of the kit is incredible in the standard pink you see all over Soap and Glory packaging. Inside the box it is a blend of beautiful sleek black and endless gold. Truly one of the most beautiful packaging I have owned.
Hoola by Benefit has always been something I have wanted to try. Benefit always make the most amazing looking products. So to find this little beauty in the box of goodies. The packaging is just gorgeous. I love how it is magnetic and shuts sharply so you know its closed. The little brush is perfect to apply it with. I love the wooden handle and the soft brush together they are the perfect combo. The product itself is a lovely colour, perfect for most skin tones. You can either apply this lightly or build it up to give yourself an even more of a bronze look. I absolutely love this and it will be my go to bronzer from now on.
Two amazing products which will be the most used in my collection for a long time.
