Bourjois Express Eye Make Up Remover // Review

Happy Friday! 
The last time I had a bit of a splurge in Boots I came across the Bourjois Express Eye Make Up Remover and thought I'd give it a try as my new waterproof mascara seemed to be undefeated even by make up wipes at the end of the day. 
This eye make up remover is probably the best one I've used. There is quite a small opening at the top of the bottle meaning that you can easily place the end of a cotton bud into the solution to correct that pesky winged liner as you go but is also great for the smothering of cotton pads to wipe across your eyes. 
As your eyes as a very delicate area you don't really want to be scrubbing the on a daily basis like you would with some make up wipes whereas with this you just have to simply apply a little to a cotton pad a wipe it across your eye and the majority of your make-up will come of first time. 
Since buying this product I haven't actually seen it anywhere which is slightly worrying although I know they sell it on ASOS which is great. I payed £5 for my bottle or remover which I think is a very reasonable price considering how big a bottle you get and how little you last each time so it will last for a long time. 
Thanks for reading!
See you tomorrow!

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer Review


Happy Thursday! 
I know I'm the very last person to jump on the band wagon but today I thought I'd write a review of the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer, although I'm pretty sure the majority of you already own it or at least seen someone rave about it before, but either way, I thought I'd add my opinion into the mix. 
The majority of the reviews I have seen about this concealer sing it's praises which made me think that it must be some sort of miracle in a bottle *well technically it's a tube*. I think the concealer is okay but nothing special. Unpopular opinion, I know. 
I don't know if it's just mine, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't smell right. It sort of smells like the sort of make up you have for playing dress up when your little so that never really encourages me to put it on my face. However the product is rather cheap at £4.19, so I don't really think it's fair to expect an amazing product for the price you're paying. 
I thought the coverage was okay, I've definitely seen worse and I've definitely seen better. I've found that after a while it starts to settle into the lines around my eyes, especially if I've been laughing or smiling a lot. 
On the bottle the product claims to have a 16 hour staying power, and it's not a lie. Today I've had the concealer on for about 14/15 hours and it's still on my face which is one thing, however it has started the fade and because of that it looks a bit yellow on me at the moment. 
I think this concealer is good if your on a budget, however if you do have that little bit more money to spend I'd probably advise going for a slightly more expensive concealer.

See you tomorrow!
