Hit or Miss list

As I try new products and test new brands I can sometimes forget what I like and what I don't. I created this list to keep tabs on everything and also let you know about my opinion on certain products. Their like mini reviews.
I hate saying this but I feel I have to. I have not been payed to say anything and all of these opinions are my own honest opinions. Also products can vary depending to climate, skin type and also sometimes by batch so don't rely on what I say. Just take it into consideration. If you disagree with my opinion let me and everyone else know in the comments. If there is anything you want me to try let me know and also let me know if there is anything you want me to review in greater detail. 
All products are in alphabetical order so you can go straight to what your looking for. :) 


Boots Tee tree and which hazel facial mask - MISS 
When I bought this I thought it would be great as it from boots and therefor a simple recipe but also it has active charcoal which I have heard is very good for your skin. However for me it didn't 'deep cleanse' like it said and it caused me to break out. Even if that was just because of my specific skin type it still doesn't leave you feeling clean and rejuvenated. It's a shame because I love a good, inexpensive face mask.

Collection Gorgeous GLOW 2. Bronzing Brick 
This is a drugstore dupe for nars' Shimmer brick and its so gorgeous. If you only ever get one highlighter it has to be this one. It has five different colours so you can pick or just use them all together. I love using this to highlight my face and also as eyeshdows. Defiantly recommend it. 

Elizabeth Arden Flawless Finish Sponge on Cream Make Up - MISS
The colour of this product is gorgeous and matte so it looks amazing on the skin but it is impossible to blend. You have to blend it out with your fingers otherwise it won't blend so if you already have foundation on you will ruin it. For the price you would expect something that blends out easily and doesn't ruin the rest of your make up. 

MAC 3D Extreme Lash 
I love this mascara as it gives a full glamorous eye lash look with one coat. It lasts all day and doesn't smudge. What else could you want from a mascara.

Neutrogena visibly clear pink grapefruit facial wash - MISS unless you have dry skin. 
This face wash doesn't leave your skin feeling dry and stripped however it doesn't actually do anything therefore it is pointless unless you have dry skin. It's doesn't leave you with that clean feeling that I look for.  It's doesn't cause any breakouts however it doesn't actually prevent them like it was designed to. This product is disappointing as it has such a lovely colour and fresh smell.

Revolution Iconic Pro palette - MISS
Although the colours are beautiful they are not pigmented at all. You have to apply many layers and if I try to blend the colours they disappear.

Revolution Lipstick in Deprived - MISS
I loved the colour of this lipstick but it has terrible pigmentation and lasts three seconds. If you rub your lips together it all disappears so you cant talk and you have to be perfectly still.  I don't know if this is a reflection on all of the revolution  lipsticks but this one is very disappointing.

Rimmel Brow This Way - MISS
This brow gel is useless.It doesn't keep your brow hairs down instead they look all gloppy and wet. Also it h=gave me spots on my eyebrows, which I didn't know was possible, but that might be just my skin.

Rimmel Scandaleyes show off mascara - HIT
I really like this mascara because with one coat you get natural lashes and with two coats you get glamorous heavy eyelashes and bonus - it lasts all day without smudging.

SLEEK Blush by Three Pumpkin 363 - HIT
Its no secret that Sleek blushes are amazing. They come in a variety of gorgeous, extremely pigmented colours. I love how the palette comes with a bluish for every occasion; Lantern, Squash and P Pie. My favorite is defiantly lantern - a matte orange colour.

Wax lyrical dragon fruit candle - HIT
I love the smell and bright pink colour of this candle. It's a fresh but yet not pungent smell. It last for a very long time and when it is burning it subtly fills the room with a sweet, fresh smell.
