Record Collection

Recently record players and vinyls have become so popular again, for me personally, they never went anywhere. I have grown up in a home full of records, every where you look in there is a record - If its not one of my dads many many records then its my brothers.

On my 21st last year I received a record player which I had been wanting for ages, My record player is by Steepletone, it is red and in the style of the 1960s record players. So as vinyls are making a 'comeback', I thought I would share my small but growing collection of vinyls - As we have a record player in our cabin I would pick up a record every now and then but what I have I have collected over the past year.  The majority of the records I own are from either charity shops, Record fairs and a couple my mum has given me of hers. I have a lot of Christmas records which I will post at a later date.

Little Mix make up for Collection

I first heard of the little mix make up range through collections twitter, I'm not a fan of little mix but I couldn't say no to grabbing some pieces from the collection. This was released in Superdrug on 25th September and has only just come into Boots recently.
The Collection consists of Eye-shadow Trios, Eye Liners, Loose Pigments, Mascaras, Lipstick and glosses, Blushes, Bronzer and Nail Varnish. Each of little mix has there own little collection, Jades is Vibrant, Jesy's is bold, Leigh-anne is Bronze and Perrie's is Daring. The prices for the product ranges from £1.99 for a nail Polish to £3.19 for a trio pallet.

I had been putting this post of for while because i wanted something from each girl to put into this post but the superdrug or boots i go to never have the things i want to try such as a lipstick or all the nail polish. Instead i gave up waiting and im going to share with you my thoughts on these two eye shadows from Leigh- Anne collection. The first product is one of the trio pallets, they are all shimmery colours which all create the perfect smokey eye with the hint of shimmer. The Darkest brown is highly pigmented and is easy to blend out into a lighter brown colour if you wanted a wash of colour but not a strong colour. The second colour in this pallet is a very pigmented bronze colour which again cane be blended out into a lighter and easy to wear colour. This has a lot more shimmer in than the darker colour which is almost a metallic colour.
The Lightest colour in this pallet is the only colour that i absolutely hate! It is really pigmented with just a swipe on the lip but if you used this is a smokey eye and blended it out this just leaves a shine and no colour what so ever. There is a lot of glitter in this shadow which makes it really hard to get any colour on to the brush. I do want to try one of the other pallets as there are some which aren't to shimmery like this.

The second eye shadow I picked up was a Dark Brown loose pigment from again Leigh- Anne's collection. This is essentially just the exact same colour as the dark brown in the trio pallet, I do find it to be very slightly different. I do find the colour isn't as heavy in colour compared to the brown in the trio pallet where its quite dark when applied. I would like it if this came with a stopper to press the colour down as it does try to escape.

I recommend taking a look at this Collection by Little Mix, There are some really nice products. I desperately want to try a lip stick, blush and the nail polish.

MUA One Direction: Kiss You Lip Sticks and Lip Gloss || Review

In Superdrug the make up brand MUA, not that long ago brought out a One Direction collection, I have previously done a review on the Little Things: Nail Varnish which I will link here. If you don't know what MUA is it is a make up brand that is only in superdrug stores where alot of the products range from £1 to around £6 (everything used to be £1). These are the last two things I picked up from the collection, They also have a cheek tint that i wanted to get but they didnt have any left and I also want to get the other colours they have.

I picked up the Naill lipstick in 'Moments' this is a really natural pink colour. I'm want to start to wear lipsticks I own quite a few I just never really wear them. I am a tad scared of wearing bright colours (even though I own a lipstick from Rimmel London's Kate Moss Collection in a bright cherry red colour) I always lean towards the more natural colours and corals. Its a matt colour with a very very slight hint of shimmer, This also leaves your lips feeling soft and nourished a bit like a lip balm. I love the packaging, The shape of it reminds me of the Mac lipsticks. The lipstick it's self has 1D logo and ' XOXO' embossed onto it. I want to try and get the other lipsticks in this collection and this is one I will get again I love it that much!   £3.00

The Last thing I picked up from the One Direction collection was the 'Zayn loves....Watermelon' Kiss You Lip Polish (Lip Gloss). I have had one of these before from MUA from the Love Hearts Collection in a light pink colour. I absolutely hate Lip Gloss, I hate the feel of them on my lips and they always feel really sticky. This isn't like that in anyway I find it to be more of a lip balm, like the Maybelline Baby Lips but with more pigment. I picked up one of the lighter colours which is a very light pink, this also has a very light shimmer to it and is also. Like the lipstick this is long lasting and also leaves your lips feeling soft and nourished.  £2.50

Have you tried anything from the MUA One Direction collection and what do you think of it?
