battle of the brands/ products- collection vs urban decay



battle of the brands/ products- collection vs urban decay


So over the past few months I have been doing these post's comparing different products either high vs lower end but also comparing different products in the high street and as I have been talking quite a lot about urban decay (by the way I'm not sponsored by them I just really love there product's), I thought that I would see whether the eyes uncovered by collection palette is a good dupe for it. 

This product is available from boots and superdrug and it's £3.99

























Comparing this to the high end I'm using the urban decay naked basics. Colour wise they are very comparable however the formulation the urban decay is more buttery but at the same time the Urban Decay is around £20.00 and the collection is £4 so you would expect the urban decay palette to be better for the price you pay.

























Overall I would say that if you have the budget for the urban decay then get it because it really is worth it because of the pigmentation and they are so blendable but for the money is the collection is a really good alternative. Packaging wise the Urban Decay is so much better because one it has a mirror and the collection one doesn't also with the collection it doesn't have an actual closing, it has quite a weak kind of magnet closing that isn't as strong as it should but at the same time there is a £16 difference.

Always remember where we came from

Over the past couple of months I feel that my body has let me down in many ways. It made me ill out of blue which meant I had to build myself up again which I wasn't planning to do. However after doing this I've know realised what's important, after having this blog for nearly 6 years and posting about beauty and my story it's important to remember why I do what I do. I was at a family event yesterday, and after speaking to one of my relatives who actually reads this blog, I suddenly realised that I've kind of lost touch with why I do, what I do. My story is unique and I am very lucky to have a physical condition but still be able to do what I love. That's partly why I set this up in the first place, is to show that even through you have something that could potentially hold you back that doesn't mean that it should. Having cerebral palsy and epilepsy has had it challenges for sure, however it also shown me the strength I have. I think in the day and age...

top 5 nude lips

Top 5 nude/ neutral lips  My first one is probably the most expensive of my five and it's the Clarins instant lip perfector. This product is kind of light a natural gloss which a slight colour. The scent of this product is just amazing it smells like vanilla and I just love it!! Like I said before it's the most expensive one at £18.00. My next one is from maybelline and if you saw my post earlier in the week then you may have already seen this but this is probably the most bold colour of the five but still very wearable. This is the maybelline colour sensational in petal pink. I really like this colour because it's not quite matte but it so nearly is. My third one is from rimmel and it's called nude pink. Shade name wise I think that this is quite disappointing as a nude pink I think of being a your lips but better, however this lipstick has quite a orangery undertone. The finish of this lipstick is quite glittery and glossy so ...

Soap and glory mini gift set's Every year soap and glory come out with some amazing christmas that you definitely get your money's worth. This is actually last year bag but I have put in the bag the product's that You get in the set for this year. I personally love these set's because they are so easy to travel with and because they are so small you can take everything you need with you. The set this year is called bright and bubbly and it comes in a box, which personally I prefer the bag as you can also used for travelling. The set retails for £10 which I think is amazing value as you get 4 products and a shower flower thing (what are they called?).
