BornPrettyMakeup #2

If you saw my other BornPrettyMakeup post, you would know a lovely women contacted me and asked if I would like to review a few of their products. This time I was allowed to pick 3 products which would catch my eye and I would be interested in trying. I picked a lip pencil, Eyebrow Gel and a lipgloss.

Lets start off with the lip pencil, there was 3 pretty shades to pick from, a very light nude, a very dark nude brown and then the nude pinky colour which I picked and thought it would suit me best as I wear these type of colours the most. Im in love with the colour, I was quite surprised how long the lip pencil was, its way bigger than the other lip pencils I have, I don't know if you can tell by the picture as I cropped the top bit off, its going to last for ages which is a good sign, It lasted quite well on my lips aswell as I wore it to work so I'm super impressed with this. Next is this Lipgloss, as you know from my last post I wasn't a fan of the bright pink barbie colour, and this is kind of the exact same, I'm quite disappointed with this, I was searching for swatches to see what colour to go for, and it was really difficult and the pictures weren't that great on the site either so I kind of had to go with what was infont of me on their website, I picked 07 and in the picture it looks like a nice pinky nude colour, well this is far from nude lol, I tested it on my lips and its quite sheer so its actually not that bad and I only put a tiny bit on so it looked like I had some sort of colour on my lips, if you want it more pigmented it will look like the colour in the picture, Its very moisturising but it didn't last long on my lips so you have to do a lot of touching up, which can be annoying. Last is the EyeBrow Gel in the shade 02, there was only two shades to pick from and as I have dark hair I thought this would match me, but it doesn't :( this is extremely dark it makes my  eyebrows look like slugs, its such a shame as I'm in need of a new Brow Gel, BUT it did set my brows into place, I just wished I picked the lighter shade, damn it. I love the packaging though, its much pretty than my maybelline one ha, 

I hope you liked this little review and I wasn't too negative haha, all the products are great, its my fault for picking the complete wrong shades that did didn't suit me, but they do need to make the swatches online better. If you want to take a look at the products I've listed them below and it will take you straight to the site.
