Lime Crime review and upcoming vintage fair.

Busy week as usual.
I have been organising my media make-up level 2 and 3 students in their body art and face art competitions and oh my goodness was it stressful. Models not turning up, students getting all flustered and saying they can't do it, usual things really. But they all did so so well, I had to quickly rush out at the end due to a doctors appointment so I missed the winners of the body art but big well done and fab job to Alex, Peggie and Julia who did amazingly and received prizes....next stop Blackpool AHT competition for them!! I find out the winners of the body art tomorrow!

And now my review on the fabulous Lime Crime, eyeshadow helper. Now I was first introduced to this product by a fellow rockabilly enthusiastic make-up artist and I thought I would give it a go, my only problem was choosing which site to buy it from...I settled on Cosmetic Cocktail.co.uk as I also purchased a few other  bits and pieces (OOC airbrush foundations, review to come soon, my Level 3 students have their first airbrush lesson with me tomorrow so photos and reactions will be included!)

Its not priced too expensive and when it arrive it came in the cutest packaging.
The great thing about this product is a little does go a long way and the texture and thickness isn't too much that you feel like your eyes are weighted down. It glides on easily and I found the best way to apply is using your ring finger rather than a brush ,then the product gets a chance to warm up.
Its smooth finish and once you apply the eyeshadow over the top it enhances the pigmentation and just gives a really nice even base.  The lasting power of this little wonder is amazing, it will last you a full day with absolutely no creasing or smudging. With my days teaching or doing my freelance work am constantly running about trying to sorting things out and even a full day of that doesn't affect my eyeshadow where as before I could bet that usually by mid-afternoon there would be some creasing. Its waterproof, sweat proof and works wonders on even oily lids. I would recommend this product to everyone, its the best eyeshadow primer that I have used and am pretty sure that my next wage is going on the Lime Crime eye shadows as am sure those will be just as good a product as this one.

Even works wonders for gluing my shiny shiny bling bling eye shadows!!


So my next news of the week is my up coming appearance at the lovely Victoria Claire's Vintage and retro craft fair with my pop up retro and vintage salon. Just like at Betty & Co vintage fair, I will be offering nail, hair and make-up treatments so come along, its going to a fab day. I have added a few more hairstyles to my booklet, sneak peak here.....
