The Blogger Made Me Buy It- DIZZYBRUNETTE3

 

 

 DizzyBrunette3, or Corrie, was actually the first YouTube channel I discovered as I was already a follower of her blog. With such a bubbly personality and a huge love for makeup its hard not to be influenced with what she has to say. Also, she says she has oily skin which I also have so I have always been keen to see what she has to say about skincare.

 

 

The Body Shop Tea Tree Pore Minimiser

 

Corrie has included this in her Get Ready With Me videos ever since I started watching her. She uses it as a primer before makeup, and as someone who suffers from visible pores and just a general fan of The Body Shop, I was super keen to try this out. I really like this product in general, not just as a primer. Tea Tree Oil is great for greasy skin anyway so I knew it would help with that aspect of my skin and, whenever I use this, I notice a difference in the visibility of my pores as they seem much smaller and almost hidden which is great. Who wants huge pores hey?!

 

Seventeen Skin Wow! 3 Way Highlighter

Corrie is probably known for her quest for glowy, dewy skin and a love for highlighting products. When she started featuring this in her videos both as a highlighter and a primer I wanted to give it a go. Plus its super cheap which is an added bonus. I started using it as a highlighter which I love as its really easy to blend and doesn't look too shiny or bright on the skin. I have used it a few times as a primer but I don't think it works aswell for that, I prefer my Lush Skin tint for that, but as a highlighter this is a great little product!

The Blogger Made Me Buy It-LLYMLRS

Lily Melrose from LLYMLRS was, in fact, the first blog I discovered. She has an edgy, cool vibe to her blog and is a wise owl when it comes to beauty products and how to use them. I regularly check Lily's blog and YouTube channel for updates and new videos as I really trust her opinion on beauty and her reviews always seem fair and honest. A lot of the products reviewed on LLYMLRS are high end however she has mentioned her love for drugstore lipsticks and nail polishes.

After watching a haul where she spoke about her love for this lipstick I wanted to try it out. Beehive is a nude, glossy finish lipstick and as Seventeen isn't the most pricey of brands, its a real bargain! This lipstick is perfect for everyday wear and can add a bit of *something* to a simple makeup look. Whilst it isn't the most long lasting lipstick, it is very pretty and wearable. So thank you Lily for introducing this lovely lipstick to my collection, it is now one of my staples and something I religiously reach for!

Are you a fan of LLYMLRS? Have you tried this lipstick? I would love to know your thoughts!

The Blogger Made Me Buy It-ZOELLA

As a beauty blogger and lover, I love discovering new blogs and their favourite products. I am easily influenced by my favourite bloggers ad I trust their opinions of the products they review. If one of my favourite bloggers raves about a product, then it is more the likely that I will later purchase that product. So I thought I would do a new series about the products I have bought under the influence of beauty bloggers and vloggers.

This post I am going to show you the products I have bought after hearing probably the most famous beauty blogger talk about them. That, of course, is Zoe Sugg aka Zoella. I was quite late to the party when I discovered Zoella, I had heard other beauty bloggers talk about her so decided to give her channel a view. It is very hard not to like Zoe and her amazing videos, she seems like such a down to earth and laid back person, and someone you would struggle not to get on with.

After watching a few hauls and favourite videos, I had heard Zoe mention the same two products over and over again, and I knew I had to give them a try.

The first is the Rimmel by Kate Moss 107 lipstick. It is a deep blue-toned red and is very bold and striking on the lips. Zoe often wears a bright lip in her videos, and not only had I seen her wear this but she had mentioned often that this was one of her favourite lipsticks. And I can totally see why! The lipstick has a matte finish but is anything but drying on the lips and applies like a dream due to its lovely creamy consistency. Because of the shade, the lipstick does last a while and needs minimal touch ups. This has become one of my favourites and when I want a classic fail-safe makeup look then I quickly reach for this shade.

The second product(s) are the Sleek blushes. Before watching Zoella, I had never even heard of Sleek however when she compared their blushes to those from Nars and spoke about their high pigmentation then I wanted to check them out. The first shade I bought was Rose Gold which, as the name suggests, is a rose blush with gold shimmer particles that can double up for a highlighter aswell. Its a beautiful blush and I wear it almost daily. The second shade I bought was Life's A Peach which is slightly more subtle than rose gold and is a gorgeous peach shade which adds a great pop of colour to the cheeks and is perfect for sunny spring days. Zoe was absolutely right about how great these blushes are, super pigmented and look beautiful on the skin.

I'm so happy with both of these products and their purchase was mainly due to Zoella's videos, so thank you to her for that! Are you a Zoella fan? Have you tried any of these products?
