MAKE UP | MeMeMe Cheek and Lip Tint in Coral Blossom


I'm someone who isn't particularly fond of cream/liquid blushes. I like the idea of them, but with my blemished skin, I usually find that blending them moves around my make up and exposes my scarring. When I received the MeMeMe Cheek and Lip Tint in Coral Blossom* (£5.50), I was dreading it. I thought, "I can't possibly put this on my skin and expect my make up to remain in place."

But after a few weeks of staring at it, sat there all pretty in my make up drawers, I couldn't resist. At first, I applied quite a lot of product which left me looking a bit doll-like. The second time, I simply applied a small dot and stippled the product into my skin using the KIKO Face 106 brush (£14.90). The brush and blush work wonderfully together to add a beautiful, subtle flush to the cheeks.

My worries have vanished, and if anything, this blush actually adds a little bit more coverage to my skin. It doesn't move my make up around and it doesn't expose my scarring. Instead it warms up my cheeks and leaves my skin looking glowing, yet natural. At only £5.50, this tint is an absolute bargain. Like I mentioned earlier, you only need a little dab as it's incredibly pigmented (it also lasts all day long too).

However, you can also get this blush for a little bit cheaper by using the code "mememe15" to get 15% off of your entire order.

Have you tried this tint before? What's your favourite liquid blush?

MAKE UP | Me Me Me Cosmetics Blush Me! Blush Box in Rouge


























If there's one make up product I really love (aside from foundation), it's blusher. It's an item that can completely change your look, pull it together and instantly make you look awake. I remember the MeMeMe Blush Me! Blush Box's* being released a few years ago and since then, they've been on my wishlist. Sadly, no Superdrug's near me stock the brand, but a few days ago I found one in my postbox. 

The packaging resembles Benefit's famous boxed powders. It's sturdy, pretty and comes with a decent sized mirror in the lid and a brush that isn't half bad - in fact for bronzer, it's fabulous. The blush itself comes in four different shades: Rouge, Bronze, Coral and Pink. And despite the swatch and shade, the blush above is in the shade Rouge*. The name is quite off putting, but the blush itself is far from red.

It reminds me of Benefit's Coralista which is a blusher I've wanted for an awfully long time. Pigmentation wise, this blush can't be faulted. If anything, it's too pigmented and a light hand is needed when applying. It blends beautifully and lasts throughout the day. The shimmer awakens my complexion and the colour complements my pale skin tone perfectly.

Usually, this blush retails for £8.50 but at the moment, it's on offer for just £6 on the Me Me Me Cosmetics website. Also, you can get 15% off your first order, making this blush an absolute bargain. I doubt you'll be able to find another blush of such outstanding quality for a better price. I absolutely adore it and since receiving it, I haven't worn anything else on my cheeks. I've even been told I look radiant!

MAKE UP | MeMeMe Cosmetics and discount code








MeMeMe Cosmetics is a brand that despite hearing a lot about, I never delved far into it before. Well I did, when I was younger and still in school, but make up wasn't taken seriously by me then and I really had no idea what I was doing. If you haven't heard of the brand before it's influenced by Ancient Greek Mythology, The Renaissance and The Bohemian free spirit, meaning that the brand has its own unique identity. The packaging of every product is not only stunning, but extremely useful and compact too. I've been trying out a couple of their products for a while now and I've loved using them so much that I thought I'd let you know how I got on.

The moment I laid eyes on this trio, I fell in love. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore my nude palettes but sometimes they're way too bulky, especially if I'm going to be staying round a friends or at a hotel. This trio allows me to create a beautiful smoky eye with just three shades. The shimmering champagne is a beautiful highlight shade, the shimmering taupe is wonderful all over the lid, and the deep matte brown is perfect in the crease. The eyeshadows themselves are nicely pigmented, easily blendable and last all day long with a primer. If Sultry Eyes isn't your thing, MeMeMe offers four other different colour combinations including pinks, greens, blues and blacks.

I love concealer, I love how it can change an entire look, and this concealer kit has everything you need in one compact container. The concealer on top is nicely hydrating and perfect for under the eyes. I've tried it on blemishes but the coverage wasn't enough for me. However on the eyes, it brightens, hydrates and conceals beautifully. The lightweight mattifying powder ensures the concealer stays put all day long. It doesn't settle into any fine lines or highlight any dry patches; it simply disappears on the skin. The kit is wonderful for touch ups throughout the day and it always manages to find its way inside my handbag due to the perfect little mirror. The concealer kit comes in two shades.

If you're interested in trying out anything from the MeMeMe Cosmetics brand, then you can browse their website here. They have everything from skin care to brows, from nails to accessories. When you spend £40 you also receive a free Seventh Heaven Moisturising Face Base, worth £15. What's more, if you're a new customer then you can receive 10% off of your order by entering the code "WELCOME10" at the checkout. The code is valid until the 18th May 2014.
