 Hi guys,

As you know, I have a bit of an obsession with Hollister because their clothes are AMAZING quality and last forever! 

It actually took me until about 5-6 years ago before I stepped foot in a Hollister store because they were so dark and like beach huts, but after my friend Rhi made me go in with her, I was hooked! 

I tend to do a Hollister haul around every season because I can always find some great pieces, and as they tend to re-release some of the same clothes each year, the pieces last such a long time and are always on style! 

Everything I picked up in this haul was on offer or in the sale, and I got them for great prices! 

As with all of my hauls, I also try on each piece so you can see what they look like. I also let you know the prices I paid, as well as the size I picked each piece up in. 

Enjoy,

Chloe xoxo

 Hi guys,

Recently I’ve been uploading shorts to my YouTube channel, as I’ve been having issues with my laptop which still aren’t resolved but I’m still able to edit some long form videos! 

In between my usual 2 videos a week, I’ve been uploading more shorts in case you prefer seeing reviews under 1 minute long.

I have a playlist called ‘shorts’ if you’d prefer to check those out. 

Let me know if you prefer watching short form or long form videos?

Enjoy,

Hi guys,

I recently tested out the Tarte Tartelette Tubing Mascara on my channel as I’ve been intrigued by the great TikTok reviews I’ve seen. Mascara and foundation tend to be my favourite makeup products to test so I was so excited to see if it actually works.

The mascara retails for £23/$24 so is quite high up there with the price, however you can purchase a travel size for £14 if you’re not sure if you’d like it. I purchased this for £10 from their website when they had a sale going on (they usually have a couple a year), so I’d say to wait until they have a sale if you’re not sure if you’d like it but you want to buy a full size just in case.

In all honesty, I don’t really know what the difference between a tubing mascara and a normal mascara is, so I went into this review just assuming they were the same, but I applied specifically how it says on the website. 

Claims 

- 24 hour flake-free, smudge proof and Sweatproof.

- Lengthens, volumizes and curls the lashes 

- 360 degree lash comb separates and lifts for fanned-out definition 

- Conditioning shea butter, castor oil and lifting plant waxes (helping lashes grow)

- Easy removal 

- 2 coats gives the appearance of lash extensions 

As with all tarte products, the mascara is cruelty free and is also vegan. 

With all of these claims, it seemed as though the mascara is the perfect one.

Check out my video above, to see if it lived up to the claims or if you should just save your money! 

Enjoy,

Chloe xoxo

Hi guys,

It’s been a while since I’ve done a blog post! 

I wanted to post about the KAB Cosmetics Mystery Box, as I was pretty intrigued about what it contains as it’s $150 but everything retails for $254! I couldn’t find any reviews or any posts about what the box contains, and the experiences of others, so I thought I’d pick it up and it may help some of you thinking the same.

I’ve had both good and bad products from KAB Cosmetics, and I’ve tried out the majority of their products they stock on the website - I always go for the bundles they add on their site where you have a few different products to try which is why I’ve tried so many! 

The products are quite up there in price, so I recommend you always use a coupon code as then you can get more for your money and it’s not as bad if something doesn’t work out well. 

There were two products I was hoping to get in this mystery his - lip oils and the contour palette because they’re some of my favourite products from this brand. 

I’ll let you know what I received, and in my video I let you know if I think it was worth the money I purchased it for - here’s a heads up, I used a 30% off coupon code so didn’t pay the full price 😉

If you’ve never tried anything from KAB Cosmetics, or if you don’t know about them, they’re a cosmetics company created by Kim Zolciak Biermann, and her daughters Brielle and Ariana. You can purchase some products from Walmart, although apparently they’re slightly different to what’s on the website as the prices are a little cheaper. 

Anyway, let’s get on with the details about the box!

If you want to purchase anything from KAB Cosmetics, I have a coupon below the review for 20% off your entire order!

About the Mystery Box 

The box has a retail value of $254, and you can purchase for $150 from their website, so you save $100 on the purchase. They mentioned on their Instagram that every box contains their Bombshell Beauty Oil, and the Undress Me lip kit. Already there, you have a $79 value. The box also contains at least 9 full sized products. I don’t know if every box contains the same products, or if everyone receives just those two items the same. 

When I’d received the box, it was just a normal cardboard packing box with the items in there. There was no KAB box like it shows on the website, so that was a bit of a disappointment. But hey ho, all the products were full to the top and had good packaging coming all the way from the US to the UK. 

Shipping was incredibly quick! I’d received in a few days after I’d purchased it, which is crazy considering it’s coming thousands of miles, and was quicker than some UK post I’ve waited for! 

The items 

The first two items I received were the Bombshell Beauty Oil, and the Undress Me lip kit.

Both products I feel I’ll be using (I was excited about the beauty oil and I’d researched the ingredients and they look good for oily acne prone skin which I have!). The lipkit looks like a nice shade that I’d wear, so no shockers there! 

Chanel have recently released their new skincare, makeup and fragrance line - No 1 De Chanel. 

This line is sustainable with their packaging and there being no leaflets - they have QR Codes on the boxes which has all information about the product you’ve purchased. They also contain the Red Camellia Flower with 5 anti-ageing benefits and 94% naturally derived ingredients. This is Chanel’s most natural product they’ve created - and it took them 10 years to create!

The foundation comes in 20 shades - which is less than a lot of their other foundations. Luckily, I was able to get my usual shade BD31. 

I did a first impression video on my YouTube channel above, where you can see me apply with both a brush and a sponge, I show you how it builds up and a 10 hour wear test! Subscribe to my YouTube channel here! 

Now onto the review.

The bottle contains the standard 30ml / 1 fl oz, and the packaging is frosted glass with a plastic lid with the Chanel logo. 

The packaging felt very lightweight compared to others like the Les Beiges foundation where the glass packaging is pretty heavy. 

I was excited to test this out as it says that it’s suitable for sensitive skin - I have very sensitive acne prone skin so I always have to be careful about which products I use on my face. I was also a little dubious as it says that it’s suitable for all skin types - I have very oily skin so usually a product which can work for dry skin will not also work for me and my oils. 

I bought my usual shade - BD31 and the shade is exactly the same as my others in this shade. 

There’s not much of a scent to the foundation which I like, and it goes on very light. 

With one layer I get a sheer-light coverage, and I can build it up to light-medium. If you’re after a full coverage foundation, this is not for you. 

This won’t cover acne or blemishes, and it won’t fully cover redness but evens the redness out a little. If you want to cover those blemishes, you’ll need use a concealer as well. 

I use 2 layers of the foundation with a sponge, and it’s not the best at building up - you have to be very quick before it dries. 

2 layers of the foundation. 

But I do like the finish I get with this. It’s a little luminous, but also a little matte so looks quite natural - if you’re after a natural look then the Les Beiges foundation would be the one to go for. 

It lasts pretty well with my oily skin for 8 hours, and I don’t really need to blot, however it does come off a little on my forehead and on the side of my face so it’s not super long lasting. So, if I want it to look nice around this time then I just build up a little bit on these areas. 

The rest of my makeup glides on very easily and I actually prefer the way it looks with the extra products added as you can’t see the blotches. 

This did cling to my dry patches, so probably wouldn’t suit very dry skin.

I did have a little bit of itchiness under my nostril and on the side on my face when using this, but it’s only happened twice out of the past month I’ve been wearing it.

Overall, I like this foundation but I’m not in love with it. I prefer my Chanel Ultra Le Teint Velvet and Les Beiges foundations more than this. 

It’s probably because I’m quite picky with my foundations as they have to not break me out, control my oils and look quite natural on the skin. 

I wouldn’t repurchase it but if you’re on the fence, I’d say try it out! 

I’d give this 3/5 stars. It’s not the best foundation, but it’s not the worst I’ve tried. Out of the ones I’ve tested from Chanel, this is the lowest ranking. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hi Guys,

I haven't been on my blog for about half a year now, so it's been a LONG TIME! I've decided to start posting about new products, and products which I have recently been testing. So what's the best way to do this, than to test out New Viral Tiktok Drugstore Makeup?!

The makeup featured, is makeup that has been going all around Tiktok, and apparently they're amazing, so I decided I was going to test them out.

Next, I tried the Maybelline Sky High Mascara. This was by far the hardest product for me to get my hands on as it was sold out pretty much everywhere! I finally managed to purchase it from Superdrug - but an hour after putting my order in, it was sold out again!

Hi Guys,

I recently tested out the Nikkietutorials x Beauty Bay palette on my youtube channel, and I wanted to share my experience and the swatches on this post (I had included the swatches in my video above). 

There are 20 shades in the palette - a mixture of matte and shimmer shades, and a mix of light, dark, bright, neutral and pastel shades. 

Nikkie mentioned in her video that she wanted to create a light and dark side of the palette, as there are 2 sides to her and she wanted a palette which could be versatile for everyone's needs.

Inside the palette, you also get a card which tells you about each shade as well as if it's best to use with a brush or your fingers. I tend to use my fingers for shimmer shades anyway as I feel as though you get a better payoff that way. 

I swatched every shade after I had tested them out on the eyes, as I managed to test out 15 OF THE 20 SHADES on my eyes! I wanted to show you how they swatch on the arm, as well as how they show up on the eyes. 

The majority of the shades swatched beautifully, and there was an exception to a couple which weren't the most pigmented, but these tended to be the lighter pastel shades, and a shimmer shade which looks as though it would be more of a topper than a stand-alone shade. 

Swatches

All swatches were done dry on a clean arm, with no setting spray, and in natural light. 

Top Row - (L-R) Redemption; Blend & Snap!; Ivy; Slasher; 5AM. 

All shades other than 'Ivy' are Matte. All shades swatched nicely, with 'Slasher' needing a little more to get to the pigment of the others. My favourite shade in the row is 'Blend & Snap!' as it applies and blends beautifully, as well as the shade being the perfect pink-matte shade. 

2nd Row - (L-R) Roxy Catan; Vla; Mikai; Mila; Underground.

This line is my favourite, as every single shade his stunning and performs really well on the swatches. 

There are 3 shimmers and 2 matte shades in this line - 'Zomer' and 'Amsterdam' are the mattes. 

Every shade swatched beautifully - with 'Amsterdam' being slightly less pigmented but still beautiful, m and built up well on the eye. The only shade I didn't use on my eye on this line is 'Mr Tutorials'. All shades which I used on the eye worked amazingly and were stunning. 

As soon as I saw 'Mama Tutorials' I knew that this shade would be special - it reminds me of a mermaid shade and is perfect for spring and summer, or to create a mermaid makeup look. 

My favourite shade from this line is 'Mama Tutorials' with 'Pride' coming a close second. 

Review

Overall, I love this palette and have created some beautiful eye looks in the video, as well as several after the video was filmed. You can create so many different looks  - the possibilities are endless with this palette! 

This has been a staple, and will continue to be a staple in my makeup routine because no matter what look I am feeling on a day, I can create it with this palette. 

All shimmers swatched beautifully, are incredibly pigmented - you only need to dip your finger in and you'll get so much pigment on your finger. The shimmers I used on the eye performed very well when using them. The only exception is 'Ivy' as I feel it's more of a topper than a stand alone shade. 

With the matte shades, the majority swatched very well, with 'Vla', 'Plot Twist' and 'Basic Trut' being the exceptions. 'Vla' could easily be built up, as I can see that the pigmentation is almost there, 'Basic Trut' I feel is too close to my skin tone to show up as well, and 'Plot Twist' didn't seem to pack the punch I bought it would have, however it is a pastel shade so may be a little more subtle than the others. 

I will be featuring this palette in some more videos very soon, so if you want to see other looks I create with the palette, then keep checking back on my channel! 

Chloe
