Anyway, I digress… Whilst perusing the cosmetics aisle of Tesco looking for my eyebrow pencil, I saw 3 massive boxes FULL of sale F&F and Barbara Daly make up! Ranging from 50p to £3 per item! Heaven! As you might have guessed, I have a little bit of a make up problem, I suppose it is like my guilty pleasure. Well I swiftly put back my Rimmel pencil and replaced it with a bargain F&F brow pencil priced at just £1!! Exactly the same, just with no brush on the end. I also got:
F&F Enlighten me concealer - £1
Awaken your eyes with this creamy under eye concealer in shade 2. Apply F&F Enlighten me concealer with the built-in brush to reduce the appearance of dark under eye circles. Before use, prime the pen by twisting the base until a small amount of Enlighten me becomes visible on the brush.
This is like the YSL Touche Eclat. Very creamy, good coverage but not heavy.
This pure shine lip gloss adds soft colour to your lips. Apply the super glossy Baby blush shade alone or over lip colour for a flawless finish. The perfect size to pop into your bag for touch-ups, apply your F&F lipgloss directly from the wand applicator.
A very pretty pink colour, slightly too sticky for my liking, so one to wear when your hair is up. F&F
Wake up your skin with a natural hint of colour. F&F cream blush in Precious pink gives any tired face a lift. Apply the blush with fingertips and dab on to your skin with a patting motion for a flattering flush of subtle colour.
Looks really pink in the dish, but once I applied with my fingers to the apples of my cheek, was a really soft, pink glow, very fresh looking.
The ultimate finish touch for your skin, F&F Galaxy glow highlighter adds a glow to dull, tired looking skin. Packed with ultra fine iridescent pearls, it can be applied all over the face or to partial areas. This versatile highlighter can be worn alone to brighten the complexion or over make-up
I’ve not tried this on my face yet, but put a bit on my hand, feels lovely and smooth, would be nice to wear on naked skin if you didn’t want to wear any foundation (like if you had a glow from a tan, fake or otherwise!)
A baked eye shadow with a shimmer and shine finish for any occasion, F&F Metallics eyeshadow, in this stunning Oyster shell colour has great staying power. The wet or dry formula offers 2 different effects, use it wet for a high impact look or dry for a beautiful soft sheen.
Luckily I wore no make up to work today, as I got to try this at my desk! It is beautiful, reminds me of MAC nylon, high pigmentation, blended well with my fingers.
Part of the beauty collection by legendary make-up artist Barbara Daly, this Lip glaze is a translucent gloss for beautifully shiny lips. With a subtle hint of Chiffon colour, this lip glaze leaves a flawless, moisturised and glossy finish Lovely gloss!
Feels really moisturising and has a pinky, almost iridescent colour.
Wake up your skin with maximum glow with F&F Galaxy Shine highlighter. This pearl packed shimmer allows for a versatile application using a sponge, brush or fingertips. Use on cheeks, face and body for stunning, shimmery highlights.
Again, I’ve not tried this one, but tried it on my hand, very pinky iridescent, will be perfect as a highlighter on the cheek and brow bones. Think Benefit High Beam, but with a more iridescent finish.
Fibre formulation adds instant length to lashes coupled with volume brush technology to get the ultimate VPL
Now, this is my one disappointing buy. But it was only 50p. I think it might be “off” as the tube felt empty when getting the wand out, very dry and hardly anything went on my lashes. Which is a real shame as the brush looks amazing, and seems like it would do a really good job if the actual mascara wasn’t dried up! Its original price of £3.49 – and you can still purchase on line through Vivo, might be worth another go.
Tiny glitter particles suspended in a clear, quick-drying gel, Includes precision brush for easy application, Wear over eye shadow or alone with mascara.
WOW, I love this! I thought it might have been a bit OTT for the office, but I just had to try it! I teamed it with the Oyster eyeshadow above, and it is beautiful. My boss commented on how lovely my eyes looked. My eyes are brown/hazel and the eyeshadow/glitter are goldy so it really brings out the colour of my eyes, makes them look really bright and pretty. Loving the sparkle of the eyeliner!
What a way to start the weekend! I’m a happy bunny!
Happy Friday!
