REVIEW | Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz vs Brow Definer

Today I thought that I would do a review/comparison post on both of the beloved ABH Brow Wiz and Brow Definer. 

This post has been a long time coming, but I thought the 'test' would be more fair if I used both products for roughly the same period of time.


Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz - Taupe $21.00 (9/10)

The first brow product I purchased and used religiously was the ABH Brow Wiz. I was a little hesitant when I bought this product as I strongly dislike eyebrow pencils. I read a load of different views and watched a bunch of makeup tutorials on YouTube where this product was being used, and I made my mind up to just take the plunge and buy it! Boy am I glad I did!! I'm totally o b s e s s e d with this little gem! I love the fact that the nib is more of a waxy texture in comparison to normal brow pencils that are more crayon-like, it makes applying the product a lot easier and a lot more natural. It's just completely perfect and I can't rave about the brow wiz enough. So if you're thinking about purchasing it, then just go for it!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer - Soft Brown $23.00 (7/10)

Once my brow wiz had died (when I say died, I mean literally, like it died. It was snapped from travelling in my suitcase and had completely ran out..) I decided to purchased the new ABH Brow Definer that was all the rage when it first came out. When I first tried it, I really liked the shape of the nib and the fact that it was slanted. I also opted for a slightly different colour as the swatches were looking different from when I bought the brow wiz, I decided to go with soft brown - which is the perfect shade. At first, I was a little 'meh' about the brow definer but I think that was just because I was used to the brow wiz and it's small, precise nib. Flash forward a few months and I definitely still prefer the brow wiz, but I also quite like the brow definer. It's quick, it's easy and it's good for shaping your brows. I just tend to find it a little more difficult when it comes to precision, as the thicker nib can be tricky when it comes to the tail end of the brow.

So, I prefer the brow wiz to the brow definer and I know this will be a little controversial to most people because I know everyone l o o o v e s the brow definer! Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's terrible but I also don't think it's amazing either. The brow wiz, on the other hand, I would recommend to absolutely everybody because it's honestly the best thing I've ever used on my eyebrows!

Either of these brow products would be perfect for anyone looking for a more natural filled in brow and the colour options are great - there's so many to choose from!

Which do you prefer, the wiz or the definer?xoxo

PREVIEW | Morphe 35F 'Fall Into Frost' Eyeshadow Palette

As soon as the email arrived in my inbox, revealing the newest Morphe eyeshadow palette - the 35F - I was all over that like a kid in a sweet shop! The colour's in this beautiful palette really speak to me and I'm so excited to start using it (because obviously I had to wait until I photographed it before I could actually use it..).

I love Morphe eyeshadow's, I think they're up there with some of the higher brands and for literally half the price. The pigmentation is always on point and the amount you get for your money is awesome.

I'm always really drawn to shimmery shadows and I think that's the main reason that I fell in love with this palette in all honesty. There are only seven matte shades in the whole palette and a total of twenty eight shimmer shades.

Top row (shimmer shades) 

Second row (shimmer shades)

Third row (shimmer shades)

Fourth row (shimmer shades)

Last row (matte shades)

Top Row, Left to Right: Frosty white shimmer, frosty pink/beige shimmer, frosty peach-y shimmer, frosty champagne shimmer, frosty golden shimmer, orange-y brown shimmer and copper shimmer.

Second Row, Left to Right: Dark brown shimmer, grey/khaki shimmer, copper/gold shimmer, grey/navy shimmer, purple shimmer with slight yellow undertone, deep chocolate brown shimmer and medium brown shimmer.

Third Row, Left to Right: Orange shimmer, dark pink shimmer with orange undertone, silver-y brown shimmer, khaki/brown shimmer, purple shimmer with slight silver undertone, plum purple shimmer with slight yellow undertone and cherry red shimmer with slight yellow undertone.

Fourth Row, Left to Right: Deep purple shimmer with slight yellow undertone, golden orange/brown shimmer, light to medium brown shimmer with silver undertone, dark pink shimmer with slight yellow undertone, dark brown shimmer with slight silver undertone, deep blue shimmer with slight silver undertone and dark brown shimmer.

Last row, Left to Right: Pale, light skin tone matte, pale brown matte with slight pink undertone, pale brown matte with orange undertone, medium brown matte with khaki and orange undertones, medium neutral brown matte, dark brown matte with slight red undertone and black matte.

So I did my best with trying to explain each shade within the palette, but as you can tell I'm no professional! So thank goodness for the swatches! I love this palette a lot and all of the shades are gorgeous, especially for this time of the year. I believe this palette is limited edition, so I would get your hands on it quick!

LIFESTYLE | A Trip to Westonbirt Arboretum

I thought I'd share a few photo's from my most recent Autumnal trip to Westonbirt Arboretum! It was actually the first time I'd visited, which I know is really bad considering I only live 25 minutes away!! I went with two of my friends and we had a really lovely walk round and it all felt very Autumnal, which I was super excited about!

It was amazing how bright and vibrant some of the trees were - some were bright red, some orange and some yellow - and it was pretty amazing to be honest (I know I'm talking about trees here, but they honestly were pretty cool).

After we had walked round for a couple of hours, we decided to grab some lunch in a really cute café in Wotton-Under-Edge on our way home. Eating out is my favourite thing to do, if you didn't know that already!

If any of you ever get the opportunity to visit Westonbirt Arboretum then I highly recommend that you do!
