Eyeko Review

Monday, June 27, 2011
Hi all, three posts in one day - wow, you can tell I've been trying to avoid housework! I haven't really done a 'proper' post today so I decided I'd put this up too. I ordered some stuff from Eyeko a while ago with the Groupon deal.

 My goodies :)




"Create a flawless base with Eyeko's 3-in-1 Cream
Moisturiser, Highlighter & Eye Cream in 1!
Infused with skin perfecting light reflectors, antioxidants and Jojoba Oil for a radiant, clear complexion.
Eyeko says: "To get that A-list glow skip foundation and use Eyeko Cream all over focusing on the eye and cheek area for lit from within skin."

I actually love this product! As you can see from the swatches it leaves a lovely shimmer, almost glow, on your skin. It isn't the best moisturiser I've ever used but it does sink in without leaving the skin greasy. This is lovely to be used as a base under make-up or as a highlighter over make-up.

"NEW! Baked pressed powders highly pigmented with finely milled pearlescent shimmer for a long-lasting flush of colour.  Each double-sided compact features duo colour blush on one side and mirror and mini-blush brush on the other, perfect for touch ups on the go.

Make Out Blush
Make your cheeks pop with 3D pink colour loaded with pearl to give a 2 in 1 colour and highlight effect."


I like Eyeko blushers, and this one isn't any exception. When I first received it I thought it would be too dark for me but it isn't. This really is a lovely colour. I wouldn't recommend using the supplied brush as it is quite scratchy.





"Make way for Eyeko London Lips Lip Gloss poured into pretty tubes stamped with iconic London images. Long-lasting colour and non-stick shine make for smooth application in a choice of 3 sheer and 3 cream blends. Eyeko London Lips are sweetly scented with a fruity fragrance and available in six lust-worthy shades.

Primrose Hill
A pretty lilac shimmer for girls on the go. This suits-all shade is ultra flattering."

This lipgloss came free as I entered my ambassador code. I do love Eyeko lipglosses so was pleased to receive this. I always find that the fragrance is lovely, they remind me of bubble gum! This lipgloss has a lovely sheen to it but not much colour, for me it is a nice day lipgloss.



"Go au naturel with just one coat of pinky-beige or layer up for a mannequin mani."

There isn't really much to say about this as the picture says it all! It is a gorgeous colour and two coats gives a nice opaque finish.

Overall I am very pleased with my order. I haven't yet tried the mascara but will be sure to pop a review of that up with pictures! I have high hopes for it as I loved the Eyeko Big Eyes Mascara. I do really like Eyeko products but I think they are a little overpriced, which is why I tend to wait until an offer comes out and then order a few things. The polish, mascara and blush were all part of a gift set that is no longer available. I ordered the cream alongside this gift set and the lipgloss was a free gift for entering my ambassador code E14173. This week's ambassador gift is Eyeko Super Star Lip and Shine - feel free to use my code if you place an order.

What I Got with My Peacocks 40% Discount

Morning all :) What a lovely morning again! So glad I'm not in work, just a shame I'm stuck in the house doing house work!

I had my 40% friends & family discount in Peacocks last week, I didn't go too mad as I've cut my credit card up so couldn't haha!! This is what I bought :

 I've been wanting this dress for ages, I saw it was reduced by 15% and there was only one in my size the week before the 40% vouchers came out, I was just going to buy it then but my lovely cousin put it out the back for me so that I could get it with the voucher! I ended up paying something like £9 for it!

 I'm still searching to find a nice pair of shorts, unfortunately these weren't them. They have been returned.

 Another ring to add to my ever growing collection!


T-Shirts for Spencer, these were 3 for £10 so with the discount I had all 3 for £6 - bargain!

I also bought some goodies for my RAK with the discount, came in very good timing as it meant that I could get more than usual and keep within the £10 limit. I haven't posted these pictures as I only sent the goodies off on Saturday so the mystery receiver probably hasn't received it yet.

Now I must log off blogger and Twitter! Loads to do today - house work, shower, fringe cut, smear test (eugh), pack for London.

If you see me tweeting please tell me to get off!!
