Review: Urban Decay Brow Box

Hey guys so today i thought i would do a review of my most recent makeup purchase. A few weeks ago i went into Debenhams, i was planning to buy the benefit brow zings however i thought that even the lightest colour was too dark for my eyebrows and it is quite expensive at £23.50. So i went to the Urban Decay section and looked there i had been looking at both products for a while just wasn't sure when or where i would buy it. I ended up purchasing the Urban Decay brow box in the colour light for £17 which is still pricey but i knew it would be of good quality due to owning the Naked palette. 

The brow box comes with two powders, on the left there is a dark brown and the right a lighter brown which is most worn. I feel that these will last a long time as i have used it everyday for the past two weeks and i've only made a tiny dent. The brow box also comes with a brush and mini tweezers, i feel that these are essential. The tweezers are small but i find this helpful as it is easy to pluck any hairs. The brush is also good quality and is very precise when using. 

Underneath is a drawer which holds a wax, im not sure if this is a good wax as i have nothing to compare it to but from using it i know that my brows stay in  place all day and do not move. As you can see i have made a large dent in this from using, i feel that this will run out faster than the powder but i dont think its essential to use everyday. 

right brow=product left brow= no product

As you can see from the photo the product is noticeable but it does not emphasize that you have filled in your brows, i think this is a brilliant product and now i feel i need to do my eyebrows. Thank you for reading, 

How Much Does My Face Cost?

So as usual i was stalking Hayley's blog and seen her upload this tag post. I thought it was a great idea as it shows how much money is actually spent on just your everyday products.

Eyes:
Urban Decays Naked Palette - £36.00 however i actually paid around £24 for mine.
Loreal paris Super Liner perfect slim (black) -£6.99
Benefits They're Real (black) - £19.99
Urban Decay Brow box - £17.00

Skin:
Collection 2000 lasting collection concealer - £4.19
Collection 2000 pressed powder - £2.99
Benefits Coralista blusher - £23.50 which i got for £21.00

Lips:
EOS lipbalm in mint - £3.00

Overall that adds up to an astonishing £99.16 however during the summer months the skin products are not in use. I have to make an excuse here and its going to be that the more expensive items were bought over a large amount of time. As i never bought the naked palette until this February. And Rachel did this with me and hers was £198 so i dont feel as bad. Hope you enjoyed this post, Louise, xx

Our Wishlist

Our Wishlist

Taylor Swift Wonderstruck - I have been listening to her new album 'RED' and my favourite songs so far are Starlight, State of Grace and Everything Has Changed which was co written with Ed Sheeran. I really admire her style and i think it shows on the bottle design. I find the smell very sweet and fruity.

Steve Madden Combat boots - I know its coming out of boot season but I've been wanting a pair like this for the last few months. I'm sure i'll get round to buying them sometime this year maybe near autumn as it will be going into the fall/winter season. I just think they are a staple item and would match a lot of clothes in my wardrobe.

Pretty Little Liars - I have had an obsession with Pretty Little Liars ever since the show aired a couple of years ago, I have not yet been able to find the box set though. Pretty Little Liars has just came back on the television after taking a long break and I think it's amazing. The show is so gripping and you really develop a relationship with the characters. Your'e basically shouting at the TV most of the time! If you have never watched Pretty Little Liars I would recommend it.

Essie Watermelon - Ever since Ingrid posted a video featuring this nail polish I have been obsessed with it. However, the nearest Essie counter in my area is in Edinburgh so I have not been able to get it. I love Essie nail polishes, they last a long time and look lovely on the nails. This colour looks stunning and hopefully I can buy it soon.

Naked Basics - I've been looking into buying the naked palette as it is a very popular item in the beauty community. However, I think it would be a waste as I already have a similar neutral palette from Avon. So I'm thinking on buying the naked basics palette which has a variety of colours and I could make different eye looks using the both palettes.

Naked 2 - So this isn't confusing this is Rachel's opinion. After getting the first palette in the summer I have been really intrigued to try the naked 2, it has some cooler tones compared to the original Naked and it also features a black which would be perfect for smokey eyes. There are also a lot of colours that can be worn all the time too and the palette's packaging looks lovely.

Michael Kors Rose Gold Watch - I've seen quite a lot of fakes by shops such as river island I actually think they look quite nice. Michael Kor's has been a real statement for a while now in the beauty community and I would love to get one. However, they are a lot of money and I'm probably the most clumsy person you will ever meet. The watch looks so pretty though!

Mulberry Alexa Bag - I think these bags are so old fashioned and classic. I will never be able to afford one but i think they are so nice and would match everything. The bag also comes in multiple colours but i would have to either choose between the brown or the pinkish colour.

Benefit Hoola Bronzer - I've never been a big fan of bronzer but I've become known to how much of a big impact it can have and this is why I've added this to our wishlist. I think I may be purchasing this for summer as I feel I would use it more then then I would now. We both want to purchase this product so I think it may be a trip to the benefit counter for us in the next few months.

Hope you enjoyed this post, I know this isn't how people normally do them but i felt that I wanted to explain why each product was here. Love Rachel and Louise, xx
