The palette comes in a presentable, black box with a mirror on the lid for ease of application and two double-ended applicators- just in case you lose one on a crazy night out.

Diamonds are a girl's best friend, and at £3.99 you can't go wrong with Urban Decay Rocks. the sparkling faux crystals are fun to stick on your body or face for a glam night out on the town. So, treat that birthday girl to a bit of glitz that she deserves. Each pack comes with a bottle of lash glue and application brush and the jewels are available in gold, silver and iridescent shades.

Sometimes make up brushes and applicators can be a pain when you keep losing them- so why not get your forgetful friend a Royal Enhance 8 Piece Make Up Brush Set? Made from soft synthetic fibres, the brushes look and feel professional. They also come in a very smart white case for holidays and business trips, as well as a clear Perspex stand for your bedroom or bathroom.

It’s no secret that looking good can be costly

It’s no secret that looking good can be costly, and even more so when the internet is saturated with cheap make-up clones and rip-offs. This makes finding your particular blush, lipstick, bronzer, foundation, or eye shadow something of a menial chore that can take for more time than it should warrant at all. On top of this, you then have to watch out for the countless websites that provide such miserable service that many of the products you purchase never even make it to your home, leading you into a long a drawn out debate with a shoddy customer service representative over postal responsibilities.
Recently though, a friend told me about a website called Cosmetics4Less that she’d been using for the past year or so, that sells all the best brands, at the cheapest possible prices. I was shocked; I could literally have my cash and wear it all at once, and so naturally I went on a shopping spree that might have even bordered on me emptying out their warehouse whilst restocking my make-up bag.
You can order via telephone and the service was astounding, I was even getting given a few tips with certain products, and as my order far exceeded £30, the delivery was free and my things arrived in less than a few days.


Opening those parcels was a girl’s day in paradise, and what made it all the more enjoyable was the low price I got it all for. Now I’m all stocked up, I’m still finding use of Cosmetics4Less  now through their gift ideas sections, which is honestly saving me so much time buying presents for the girls. I look great and I feel great. So don’t let those empty pockets stop you from being you by getting your brand cosmetics for less at Cosmetics4Less.

How to Look a Million Dollars with Cheap Makeup

In today's budget-conscious society, money is tight and many people simply don't have the cash to splash on essentials such as makeup. But cheap makeup doesn't have to look cheap. Here are some simple tips to help you look a little less Katie Price and a little more Kate Middleton.



Bottoms Up!
No, we're not talking alcohol! The baseline to perfect makeup is a fresh, youthful complexion. So how do you achieve that? Drink water, and plenty of it.


A Good Toolkit
The next essential is your toolkit. If you can afford it, spend a little on some decent makeup brushes. They can make all the difference between looking cheap and caked on or smooth and natural. Of course, you'll need to learn how to use them effectively, too. (We've heard YouTube's good for that.)

A Solid Base
Ensure you choose the right shade of foundation by matching it to your jawline and blending carefully so it looks natural. And remember, less is more – you don't want your face to crack every time you smile.

The Eyes Have It
To create lasting eyeshadow, use a primer and dab the colour on while the primer is still wet, before blending carefully. Apply sparingly to begin with – it's always easier to build up colour gradually than to wipe it off and start again.

Voluminous Mascara
To finish the eyes, apply one or two layers of mascara. You want to lengthen the lashes without overdoing it – you're aiming for volume rather than clumps! If your mascara has a tendency to clump, then apply it to the tips of your lashes only or use a sideways back-and-forth motion as you apply it to separate the lashes.

Kissable Lips
To keep your lips looking good enough to kiss, don't skimp on colour – it'll help polish your overall look. Choose a colour that complements your skin tone and bear in mind that thin lips suit bright, vivid shades, whereas fuller lips look better with softer shades.


Following these simple tips will help ensure your cheap makeup achieves a classy, sophisticated look, rather than the tacky Barbie look we see so often on our streets today.
