SEVENTEEN / 17 *New* Lip Lustre Review

Ciao Bella!

As i was browsing through the makeup stands in my Local Boots i came across the new SEVENTEEN Lip Lustre lip glosses. They seem to be a an 'updated' version of the previous SEVENTEEN ultimate lip volume lip glosses. Currently all SEVENTEEN products are 3 for 2, so purchased a few of the glosses at £3.99 each and also a SEVENTEEN supreme shine lipstick (review coming soon!). The shade i got were wild one, ice maiden , hotting up, talk that talk and queen of diamonds.(swatches below).

Left to Right: wild one, ice maiden , hotting up, talk that talk and queen of diamonds

The shades i got were just a selection from the range - there's such a wide range of colour from red to coral to gold. The packaging is quite chic and doesn't look like a  it cost a mere £3.99 (such a great price for lip glosses). Sadly the product itself lets the new SEVENTEEN Lip Lustre lip down. After about an hour of wearing of wearing the lip lustre my lips were left feel sticky and dry. Wearing a non-greasy  lip balm reduced the dryness but didn't combat it. Also the colour in the tubes looked highly pigmented and vibrant, but it took quite a lot of 'layer' to build the colour up, as were very weak. Overall, the SEVENTEEN Lip Lustre  glosses are great buys for the price but i wouldn't purchases them again. 

Without Flash wild one, ice maiden , hotting up , queen of diamonds and talk that talk.

With Flash

Pros: Price, Wide range of colours
Cons: did last on my lips a long , left my lips feeling 'sticky'.  The colours didn't come out as pigmented as they looked in their tubes, which was disappointing,
Bottom line: Great lip glosses for the price, but wouldn't purchase them again as they were drying and didn't last long on lip

Seventeen Doll'd up mascara review

Ciao Bella!

I received a voucher in the post to try this mascara for £2 from Boots.
Its from the recently revamped seventeen brand (previously know just numerically as 17).  It wouldn't have been my mascara of choice but at the price i thought it was worth a try.What's even better than the price, currently its 3 for 2 mix and match on all self serve cosmetics  lashes and makeup accessories in Boots.

I was excited to try it upon ready that that it could 'curl lashes for up to 24 hours. It did curl my lashes and make them look more volumized but the downfall is it also made them look 'spidery'.

Its not the best mascara for the job , as there are other better alternatives out there at a similar cost.

Bottom line : Good mascara but not great.

Pros: Price, Love the brush applicator, Curled lashes

Cons: mascara itself watery consistency , lashes looked a bit sparse/spider
What's your experience with doll'd up?
