MAC PAINTERLY PAINT POT REVIEW

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Here's to my first post of 2015!

 

 

 

 

A few weeks ago I Got MAC Painterly Paint Pot which is a flesh-toned colour. If you don't know what MAC Paint Pot is, it is a cream eye shadow, which sets to a matte finish.

 

I had been eyeing it up for ages now and finally decided to purchase one. Almost everyday since I've got it I have been using it; alone and with other powder eye shadows on top.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This product blends easily and covers veins with a thin layer. It has last me all day without a eyelid primer and great to use everyday for a neutral look, for my NC42-44 skin tone it adds that subtle neutral colour I was looking for.

 

I've notice a thin layered applied to my lid works great as a single colour. As a base for other eye shadows it works great too however too much of this cream eye shadow applied, it can get creased, settling into the your fine lines.

 

 

 

 

For the price I think it is worth it and I personally love using this product. Let me know what you think of this product if you have tried it out!

CHRISTMAS IS COMING

I love going into Central London and to see the Christmas lights this year made it definantly feel more like Christmas is just round the corner.

After having lunch at Mishkins (See my 'FOODIE TAKE II' post) I looked around Covent Garden to see all there lights and decorations:

I didn't realise this was made from lego!

Covent Garden Christmas Tree

Spot of window shopping.

Then walked down Regent St too see there Christmas lights. 

Via Carnaby Street to Oxford Street - 

 

Seeing everyones post about Oxford Street Lights we had to take a look.

This was Selfridges.

  

 These lights and decorations everywhere put me in a happy festive mood. What are the Christmas Lights like in your area?

FOODIE TAKE II

I have been wanting to visit Mishkins for months now and finally went the other day. The food was so good I had to write a post about it quick.

The setting of the restaurant reminds me slightly of an American diner with the booths, they even have the stereotypical ketchup and mustard bottles. 

  

As soon as we went they we were seated (we had just beat the lunch rush) and our glasses were topped up with water - which is nice to have as many English restaurants you have to wait and pay for water. Our food didn't take long to come which was good because we were starving!

The food has a Jewish take on it so it's somewhere different to enjoy and I can say the food didn't disappoint with this restaurant in Covent Garden and can see why it's growing more popular. 

Here's the Reuben on Rye and Reuben Burger with a side order of onion rings and 'east end' chips.

I can say everything we ordered was amazing - cooked to perfection but especially the burger with the cheese (WOW!), have to say the best I've tasted!

Will be defiantly going back there! I recommend going if you are in the Covent Garden area and want to try something different. If you've been to Mishkins, what did you think of it?
