Tyna's Talky Time

Hello Lovelies! Today I got a quick Mascara Battle for you guys! In my last post I showed you guys what I picked up in Superdrug. Check out my Mini Superdrug Haul Post here . At Superdrug I picked up two mascaras, The L'oreal Baby Roll mascara and the Maybelline Colossal . Baby roll is something I wanted to try out since it came out while the colossal is an old favourite. I wanted to compare the two, see how well they do on my short lashes, how they last throughout the day and how easy they are to remove. This is what the L'oreal Baby Roll looked like right after application: This is what the Maybelline Colossal looked like right after application: Application: I do think that the Maybelline was easier to apply. L'oreal was a lot more clumpy and almost made my lashes just look wet. It didn't separate or elongate them at all. Maybelline Colossal - 8/10 L'oreal Baby Roll - 5/10 Lasting: The both lasted really really well. There was no s...

Hello Lovelies! This week I decided to treat myself a little bit and I finally went and picked up some bits from Superdrug that I've been wanting for a while. Their 3 for 2 offer is currently on so made the whole journey even more enjoyable as I ended up paying for 4 products and getting 2 free. I saved £10! I am so excited to try these out and let you guys know if I like them or not. Stay tuned for some reviews coming soon :) Skin Care - The only item I picked up was the Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water . This is an old favourite that I decided to get after being a little disappointed with the Nivea Daily Essentials Eye Make-Up Remover which is a lot oilier than I remember it being. Makeup -   Foundation - As for makeup I decided to try out a new foundation. I have recently developed a very oily skin and therefore founding a good foundation is a lot harder for me than it used to be and we all know that the right base is the most important to make sure y...

Hello lovelies! Today I thought it would fun to try the 5 makeup products challenge. I feel like while doing my makeup on an everyday basis I reach for many different products. I normally use 2 eyebrow products, 2 mascaras, bronzer from one palette and highlighter from another. I wanted to see if I would be able to create a simple everyday makeup look using only 5 products. It would be extremely convenient for travelling and for when you have literally 5 minutes to do your makeup in the morning. I'm not sure if this is cheating or not but I used some products for different purposes. Still staying within the 5 products though didn't I? ;) All these products are easily accessible, I got all of them from my drugstore (that's the only place I get my makeup from anyway  #budgetlife  #mycheapass) I start off by blending out my Revlon Colourstay Foundation - 150 Buff using the flat side of a damp Miracle Complexion Sponge by Real Techniques. For an everyda...

Hello lovelies! I have recently come across some drugstore items that have been massive disappointments. It's never fun going out, spending money on something and then hating everything about it. I really want to help you guys out and tell you the 5 items that I found to be serious disappointments and therefore don't recommend you spending money on them. As a disclaimer I would like to mention that if you own any of these products and really like them or even completely disagree with my opinion that's totally fine. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and I'm more than happy to listen to yours. If you believe a product I listed doesn't deserve to be on this list please let me know why you think so :) These products are listed in so specific order. The first product that I'm really disappointed in is this Makeup Revolution Ultra Contour Kit - Lightening Contour F01.  The size and presentation of this palette is the only good thing about it. It...

Hello my lovelies! Although pregnancy has many beauty cons like weak hair, greasy roots and dry ends, spots etc, one pro that this pregnancy has brought me is strong nails. I always suffered from very fragile and weak nails that wouldn't grow longer than 2mm without chipping, pealing or tearing. After suffering for years my nails finally look amazing and I'm making the most of it by painting them regularly either with normal nail varnishes or gels (I have a gel nail qualification and do them myself at home). While strolling around Primark a few weeks back I decided to pick up some nail polishes. I picked up 2 of their 90p polishes and 4 from the £1.50 group. I can't lie, they look pretty good. The bottles look sturdy, haven't found no problems with the brushes and they are in general a good size for the price. I thought it would be a good idea to try them out and see how they do. Considering 2 of them are cheaper than Poundland varnishes I was intrigued to...

Hi guys! I thought it would be not only fun but also very useful to make a list of my top 5 £1   drugstore lipsticks. Whether we admit to it or not, most of us are on a budget, at least majority of the time. I mean c'mon, no matter how much you earn or what your budget for the week/month is, you will always head for the cheaper option first. Don't worry, we are all guilty. We all also know that a purchase always feel better and is more satisfying when its dirt cheap and ends up being your steal of the month. It's not the same when you spend £20 on a lipstick, you simply expect it to be amazing. It was freaking 20 quid after all! The fun kicks in when you find a lipstick for £1 and love everything about it. Now that moment is what we live for. In order to make it a little easier for you guys i thought I would make this list with my favourite red, cherry and purple lipstick, plus my 2 favourite nude lipsticks - all for  £1 each! (These are in no specific order)...
