AFFORDABLE BRONZE & GLOW HAUL

Hello Everyone! So recently Makeup Revolution (which is one of my favourite super affordable makeup brands) launched four new highlighting/strobe powders, naturally i had to get my hands on them asap by placing an online order from Makeup Revolution or "TAM Beauty" as the website is now. The amazing thing about this is now they stock more than just the one brand and one of the other brands happens to be Freedom, which is a brand i have only just discovered recently. Getting to the point i placed an order and i got a bunch of bronzers/highlighters to try, so i thought why not share which ones i picked up with you all...


MAKEUP REVOLUTION STROBE HIGHLIGHTERS - £3 EACH
(shades from left-right: moon glow lights, ever glow lights & radiant lights)
I am a huge fan of the vivid baked highlighters by Makeup Revolution and you will have seen my talk about them a few times in previous posts, so naturally when these strobe highlighters launched i had to get my hands on them. The difference between a strobe highlighter and a normal highlighter is that these give a much more natural glow to the face, rather than a super shimmery glow. I will report back on what i think and if they are as good as the strobe balm, that i love also.


MAKEUP REVOLUTION VIVID BAKED BRONZER - £4
(shade on the left: golden days)
So i decided to pick up a different shade in one of my favourite bronzers of all time, which is the vivid baked bronzer in the shade ready to go. The difference between the two shades is this one is slightly lighter in colouring and has more of a golden glow to it, i just love how super naturally these look on the skin and are perfect for achieving an effortless summer bronzed glow. Another thing i am obsessed about these bronzers is that they are stunning used simply all over the eye lids, for an easy bronzed daytime look.

MAKEUP REVOLUTION VIVID BAKED HIGHLIGHTER - £3
(shade on the right: rose gold lights)
As i mentioned above i love the vivid baked highlighters and i have every single other shade available, so naturally when they launched a new shade i just had to pick it up. How stunning does this look though? I am super intrigued to see how this is going to look, for some reason i think it would work really well as a blush/highlight in one combination. If i was describing my favourite type of blush it would be this, that perfect rose golden shade.


FREEDOM BRONZER - £2
(shade on the left: shade 115 shimmer)
So next i picked up a few items from the brand Freedom, i really wanted to get a few more things to try out as i have been impressed with everything i have tried so far. I decided to get this particular bronzer as the swatches looked stunning and really reminded me of the vivid baked bronzers. Also the fact that this is only £2 as well, left me wishing i had seen this before i did my £20 makeup challenge post ha ha!

FREEDOM PRO HIGHLIGHTER - £3
(shade on the right: glow)
Whilst i was making an order anyway i thought i might as well pick up another shade in the pro highlighter, i already have the shade diffused and that is the most beautiful pinky highlighter. These highlighters are actually crazy pigmented, which blows my mind as they are only £3 each and i think they are more pigmented than some of my higher end ones. This particular shade is such a me highlight, as it is the most beautiful champagne/gold shade.


FREEDOM BRONZED PROFESSIONAL PRO BRONZE - £4
(shade: warm lights)
The final product is this "bronzer wheel" style bronzer, these are designed to be used either separately or swirled all together. I thought this would be good for both bronzing/contouring as all three colours are matte, the compact really reminds me of the bronze, shimmer, highlight palette by Makeup Revolution as it is super flat/compact but really big and i believe that is £4 also.
