LUSH - Emotional Brilliance Colour Range

If you are a fan of Lush you will be very excited to hear that this Saturday on the 21st of July Lush will be launching their new colour range.

This new range is less about wearing make-up that's on trend or in season but more about make-up that is designed for YOU.
The brand new concept is about matching your psychological needs to what colour cosmetics you should be wearing, at any moment. 

How it works:  Lush believe in the power of suggestion, if you believe in it you will then start to behave a certain way. You spin the wheel and choose the three colours that stand out to you the most. These three colours will then be placed in the middle of the wheel in the order you picked them in. Your first colour choice symbolises your strength OR weakness, your second choice represents your subconscious mind and your third choice is your talent.

I'm not sure how I would get on with a concept like this. I usually see something I like, check the price and if I can afford it I buy it! Simple as. I do love to try new things so I cannot wait to get into Lush next weekend at the #DublinBloggerMeet.

The new range of colours come in Liquid Lipstick, Liquid eyeliner and Cream eyeshadows. There are 30 products in the Emotional Brilliance range and all are vegan.


Cream Eyeshadows €17.95 each 5g (6 different shades)
Contains almond and jojoba oils, glycerine, cupuacu butter and a rose petal infusion.


Liquid Eyeliner €17.95 each 5g (11 different shades)
Contains a herb with ancient tradition of use for the eyes.


Liquid Lips €17.95 each 5g (13 different shades)
Contains organic jojoba oil, condelilla wax and rose wax.

Saving the planet
All the products come in clear glass bottles which makes it easy to see the amazing colours and also makes it recyclable. The cap can be returned to your nearest lush store where they will return it to their supplier to make new caps or more black pots. The wands inside the bottles cannot be recycled but can be washed and re-used for your own needs.

I have yet to see these products in person so I can not comment on their quality. I am drawn to the Liquid liner but I would have to see the wand first. I think that will be the big decider when it comes to the Liquid Liners popularity. If the wand is not right I won't be interested. The colours of the Liquid lips look amazing. I have shelled out over €17 for a lipstick before so these might be a new love. 

What do you think? Are you excited about this new colour range?

#DublinBloggerMeet Update


Hi Girls,

I hope everyone is have a nice week, I'm counting down the days till the weekend, the following weekend and the days to the following weekend after that! I love having plans for the weekend, something to look forward too and the next few weekends are going to be exciting.

The #DublinBloggerMeet is still going ahead on the 28th of July. I am still waiting on numbers to book a place where we can sit down and have some tasty treats and get our chat on! The last meet up I attended we went to a restaurant and had a three course meal, it was amazing and I really enjoyed it but I didn't get to chat to the women on the other side of the table all that much so I think it would be nice to go somewhere like a coffee house. That way we can push our tables together and take over the joint. Iv'e had some great suggestions but can't book anything until I have numbers confirmed.

Cinema Cosmetics - LA Splash - Kett Cosmetics

This week I had the wonderful opportunity of being introduced to some exciting make-up ranges from  Cinema Secrets, Kett Cosmetics and LA Splash.  

Cinema Secrets is a professional make-up brand that not only caters for the entertainment business but also for the general public. The brand was founded by Maurice Stein back in 1985 and primarily catered for special effects and costume make-up. Now make-up artist all over the world are using Cinema Secrets.
One of their most famous products is their make-up brush cleaner. I got to see this product in action and boy is it good. All you need is a little drop and it goes a long way. No messing around with surgical spirits or shampoo, Cinema Secrets professional brush cleaner removes 99.9% of all bacteria. It works with all types of brush hairs, dries fast, leaves no oily residue and has a lovely vanilla scent. I also love that it comes in a variety of sizes, perfect for at home and on the go. 
You can purchase their brush cleaner on the Cinema Secrets website. Prices: 2oz €9.40 4oz €14.09 8oz €26.10 and the largest size 32oz €45.19.

I have some other exciting products to show you but I will save them for another post as this one is going to be picture heavy as it is.

I am very excited to tell you about the new make-up range to hit Ireland and that is LA Splash. The moment I seen the display table I was transfixed like I don't know what. 
I swatched this amazing nail polish and I have to tell you I was very impressed with the quality. That is only one coat in the photo above. This 10ml bottle will retail at €4.99 and they have another range of glitter polishes retailing at €5.99.
This is just one coat from their glitter range, clearly not as pigmented. It would look better with another coat and I like the way there is some colour to it compared to other brands that just have glitter. 


This is Enchanted Forest, one of their Smokey eye collection kits. It comes with everything needed to create that perfect smokey look. It even comes with step by step instructions, simples! 

I tweeted about these nail art glitters and got a great response. And I'm not surprised because I had to hold back from sheer excitement and jumping up and down when I saw them. No joke. 

This is Trickery and will retail at €5.49. These pictures do not do this product justice. It's so amazing I want to marry it! In work tomorrow we are having a fairytale princess fancy dress party and I cannot wait to strut into the classroom with my nails glittered up. The girls are going to be so jealous...yeah, I know they are only three and I'm 25!


Another quality pigmented product from LA Splash, their precision eye liner pen. Retails €8.57. A great product to have if your a fan of the cat eye/winged liner look. 

Also at the event I got to experience Kett, a high definition air-brush make-up brand. To be honest I have never been interested in air-brush make-up. I have seen the results and think it is wonderful but personally would never be able to afford the equipment and wouldn't use it to its full advantage. I swatched these Steel Your Face Liquid Metals which can be used in the air brush system and also without. I loved the colour payout.


So there you have it girls, I am so impressed with the products I got to play with. As I said before I will have another post to follow this with a more in-depth review on Cinema Secret products. I hope you enjoyed reading about these make-up ranges. Have you heard of them before and would you be interested in trying them out. Let me know in the comments below.

Thanks for stopping by and thank you to Oona and Paul who held the event, they where a pleasure to meet. Head on over to their Cinema Secrets Facebook page and let them know you heard about them here on Adoerabubbles blog.

Love,
Sarah
