MAC Pro longwear concealer: Review

This concealer is by far the best I have ever used it is perfect for disguising dark circles under the eyes as it is crease proof and lasts all day and most concealers tend to smudge and crease underneath the eyes, so finding this product was a win for me. 
It also has many other uses as It is brilliant for using on the eye lids as an eye shadow base as it is from the pro longwear range it really does keep everything in place so instead of using an eye primer this works just as well underneath powder and cream eye shadows. 
I mainly use this product around the eyes put you can also use it on any pesky spots that your foundation doesn't cover it is guaranteed not to crack or crease and stay on all day. My only complaints with this product is the fact it is in a glass jar which means that it can be easily broken, it also has a pump that is difficult to control which sometimes means you end up wasting some of the product as you get more than you actually need especially if you are using it just for the eye area. But over all this is the best concealer I have used so I can put up with the packaging.

You can pick up this concealer at MAC for £15.50, please leave comments and let us know what your favourite concealers are, thanks for reading <3

Halloween Antics 2013

Halloween is the day of the year that you can dress up and not worry about over stepping the mark. We love the excuse to come up with creative ways of creating the scary looks for Halloween, so I thought I would share with you our Halloween 2013 looks!

I dressed as zombie school girl which was the perfect opportunity to cover myself in blood, cuts and scary face paint, i used a black eye shadow to make my eyes very smokey and to contrast the white face paint to give it a more gory look. Laina dressed up as a spider women and drew on spider webs to create a spooky look, Natasha dressed up as a zombie cat with cute black cat ears and then did a smokey black eye shadow look using Barry M dazzle dust she then added fake blood for a more dramatic effect.
