Lola Makeup by Perse


I have come to know and see Lola makeup by pearse product's via there social media and often within beauty boxes. I will still as always give full and honest reviews to each product. 

Blusher mono
Add colour to your cheeks with this soft and creamy powder that gives a velvet finish with excellent adhesion to the skin.
Micronised pigments allow you to build long-lasting colour and there is a range of shades to choose from, depending on your skin tone or the time of year. From pink to peach and warm corals, there’s a rosy cheek glow for everyone.
To use: Apply over setting powder for ease of blending or directly onto nude skin using the LOLA Blush Brush for a radiant and natural look.


This blush is very pigmented, also soft and easy to blend finely milled powder. It doesn't kick up when loading your brush so I'm not loosing any product when using  my blush. I love this shade as its subtle but gives a radiant glow. 

INTENSE COLOUR LIPSTICK
This rich full coverage lipstick glides on effortlessly to give full, seductive colour in just one stroke. Ultra-rich pigments offer maximum colour impact with a sophisticated lustre and a glossy finish. The creamy texture is enriched with antioxidants and nourishing plant extracts, Vitamin C, Mango Seed Butter & Vitamin E while peptides and Hyaluronic Acid work to visibly plump, smooth, condition and volumise.

To use: Apply colour directly to the lips. Use the LOLA Lip Brush for added control and a more professional finish.
Lipstick for me can be hit or miss especially with nude shades. I was kindly sent a red with a slight undertone of raspberry. Its a rich and creamy so i would strongly recommend using a clear or similar coloured lip liner. Its a beautifully pigmented, creamy long lasting formula. 


DUO KAJAL + EYELINER
The LOLA Duo Kajal + Eyeliner combines two amazing eyeliners in one handy pen. At one end an intense black Kajal and in the other, a precise liquid eyeliner in marker pen form. It’s easy to apply, dries in seconds and stays put for up to 12 hours. The intense black liner is also waterproof, crease-proof and ophthalmologist tested.

To use: Apply a thin line close to the eyelashes or draw a thicker line flicking up at the end for a more dramatic look.
The duo kohl and eyeliner i must admit first a little wary, as I've tried similar idea's from other brands. So I firstly tried the liquid liner side which is ultra pigmented, does not flake nor bleed out of the corner eye area. It gave me good control and i felt my grip was more sturdy then a smaller liquid liner pen.
The kohl side again is a sharp tip and winds up to looking like a chubby pencil, its blended amazingly for an impressive smokey eyes look.
I have loved the Blusher and the radiant glow it gives me upon application, its a definite favourite and I cannot wait to purchase more shade's. The lipstick is beautifully creamy and highly pigmented and is a stunning colour. I loved this formula of lipstick and am looking forward to seeing the other shade's available. Now whilst the Duo Kajal & Eyeliner is a thicker "pen" to hold but it does give a feeling of better control. It is pigmented and does give me a quicker flick on my cat eyes and my waterline also needed a few strokes due to the kajal being soft and easy to apply. I would also use the Kajal as a liner for my upper lid and then smoke this out when doing my smokey eye looks. So my first impressions are that I'm very impressed with the Lola Makeup. I cannot await my second review and also showcasing more looks using these Lola products.

I love this set as they tackle everything for all skin types, plus being made from natural ingredients the quality is outstanding. I must confess I'm not a floral type of girl and stick to mostly fruity or sweet scents. I however think the gardeners range reminds me of opening my window at the start of summer's day and smelling nature in full bloom. It could be freshly cut blooms and grass all mixed in with the dawn fresh scent together. Is the best way I can describe this collection.

Revel Eyelashes


http://www.reveleyelashes.co.uk

When it comes to eyelashes, I love natural with plenty of volume as my lashes are quite thin. I have yet to try human hair lashes so when I saw revel lashes, I was thrilled to be given an opportunity to trial them. They are affordable and i'm hoping they do apply well and are comfortable to wear.

Boost your panache effortlessly with the thickness provided by these lashes. Its Ultra light flexible lash bands blend perfectly with your natural eye lash line giving it a magnificently natural look. 
These stunning lashes have a tiny space between the differently lengthed hair, aiding blend-ability and assisting in looking more natural. Beautiful lashes that feel light and give your eye's a lovely fuller appearence. They give a subtle look making the eye's appear bigger and brighter, adding some dramatic flare without being overly noticeable. I love this set of lashes. 


- Revel lashes : Number 007
Assert the power of your eyes with these lashes that provide beautiful length and volume. Its Ultra light flexible lash bands blend perfectly with your natural eye lash line giving it a magnificently natural look.
Beautiful lashes with an even distribution  of hair that align with your own lashes, adding length and the look of natural lash hair. The thin lash band give's the lashes a seamless and additionally natural looking finish. Can be curled for your specific needs, which i had to do when using my glasses. I will purchase the shorter length on the site, as I love these so much and I want to wear these with my glasses daily. 


- Revel lashes : Number 015
These delicate lashes boost length to give your eyes a flaunt worthy natural flair. Its Ultra light flexible lash bands blend perfectly with your natural eye lash line giving it a magnificently natural look. 
I love these lashes as the space give's a sense of natural growth, making these brilliant lashes for women whom have sparce area's. They are lightweight and look amazing with a slight cat eyeliner flick, as they easily transition into dramatic lashes from that simple step.

 

Overall thought's
The packaging on Revel lashes is professional, attractive and sturdy. Given that they can be re-used after cleaning, I appreciate having the box to get the most wear as possible. Also with the lashes being human hair, the quality is so impressive. Also they were the easiest lashes I've ever used, as I didn't need tweezers which is my regular essential tool for application. 
These lashes look natural and have a thin lash band for easy and great application. The band can be concealed and they hold a good coat of adhesive, which makes sure the lash is held confidentially through the day. It can easily be fitted tight up against your own lashes or by adding a thin eyeliner flick. All depend's on preference when wearing your lashes. 
Revel offer a wide range of lash style's, including length and thickness of the hair.  These are very high quality eyelashes and if cleaned can be reused over and over again. I would not hesitate to purchase and am going to obtain some with slightly   shorter hair, so my glasses do not disturb the positioning. 

My only tiny peeve was that I wish the adhesive wand was flat. As the glue dries at the container top (can form a glue string) and i needed to dip the wand numerous times top pick up some glue. 

- Lash adhesive 
While most lash brands use Latex adhesives like DUO to apply their false lashes, which can cause skin reactions. Revel false eyelashes have formulated the worlds first latex free lash adhesive which has been dermatological tested. It's formulation is water, heat and sweat resistant and is guaranteed to last from 40hrs to 60hrs without retouching. Now remember with Revel " Every day is a lash day" 

Where have i been ?

Many of us use makeup as we have a passion or or it is nessesity of our daily life. For me it is a mixture of things. It is one of those ...
