Empro 1 Day Liner.






This is apparently a Korean product. Korean make up and skincare are usually really good but this was very disappointing. I bought it as I liked the fact that it was a 2-in-1 product. There's a pencil eyeliner on one end as you can see in the pictures above, and a liquid (pen) eyeliner on the other end. I thought it would be extremely handy but I can say that I definitely regret buying this. It is easy to use and application is smooth but the staying power is just so bad. I remember wearing this in Malaysia for just an hour and my eyeliner smudged like crazy! I looked like a panda! I've tried applying both eyeliners and both had very poor lasting power. I definitely feel that I've wasted money here!

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion.




I've used this for quite some time now! I don't usually wear eyeshadow but I still think that it's best to put some eyeshadow primer on before I apply mascara and eyeliner as I have very oily eyelids so my make up is always sliding of my face. This helps keep my eye make up in place which is great. Obviously as the day goes on, your mascara/eyeliner will smudge regardless of what you use so don't think that you're eye make up will look exactly the same as it did in the morning when you arrive home after a long day out. When you apply this, it does look kind of weird on your eyelid alone but it will slowly sink in. I love how it has a little brush and I think the packaging is adorable! I have the tube version of this which I bought first but I find the two slightly different even though it's supposed to be the exact same product which I find a little weird. I'm not sure if it's just me being strange but I actually prefer this version of the eyeshadow primer potion (which I got in a set with the eyeshadow palette).
If you haven't tried this yet, quick, head to your nearest Urban Decay counter! This stuff works!

Halo Eye Make-up Remover Pads.



I bought these for when I went travelling earlier this year as I did not fancy taking a whole bottle of eye-make up remover with me. I had never seen or heard of the brand Halo until I popped into Superdrug for some essentials. They were cheap so I thought why not give them a try. 
I was extremely disappointed when I tried them out for the first time. It was literally like cotton pads soaked in water. I can see why they say that it's "gentle on your skin" but it certainly did not remove my waterproof mascara. No matter how many pads I used, my mascara and eyeliner just would not come off. I got so annoyed that I ended up having to use my cleansing oil to remove my eye make up which actually stung it a little. I ended up using the remaining pads to clean things! I will not be purchasing again.

Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray!




I've been using this for ages now! This stuff really does work! I barely powder my foundation anymore after buying this...and I have oily/combination skin. It lasts forever. Whenever I use this, I spray it across my t-zone first, and then I spray the rest of my face as if I was drawing a cross. I also spray a little on my neck as I always drag my foundation down to my neck. I've noticed that many girls neglect the neck area when applying foundation. This is a big no no. You need to at least pretend that the colour of your face and neck are the same! Many people rave about these kinds of makeup setting sprays, particularly the ones from Urban Decay and I can totally see why. My make up definitely lasts longer whenever I apply this. Obviously, my face still gets oily throughout the day and my make up might smudge in some areas (like around the eyes) but it's nothing unbearable. This product is totally worth buying.

Garnier Oil-Infused Nourishing Scrub!



I've noticed that Garnier has introduced quite a lot of "oil" products recently! I decided to give this a try as I was looking for a new body scrub! First of all, I fell in love with the scent. It is quite strong, but very pleasant. It smells like something that you would find in a spa or a posh hotel even. So according to the label, the product consists of argan, macadamia, almond and rose oils. I personally found this body scrub quite nourishing but not oily which is great! It does improve the appearance of the skin but like the other Garnier body scrub(s) out there, the beads are quite harsh. However, my skin doesn't seem to be irritated by this. I have also noticed that this scrub really does stick to your skin! So when using this, make sure you rinse it off thoroughly! All in all, a good drugstore body scrub! And I have already repurchased!
