HIGH STREET BEAUTY | IS IT WORTH IT?

Has everyone noticed recently that every clothes shop you seem to go into noW has their own makeup range? Not that I'm complaining as the more places to shop for makeup the better. However, just because a shop can make amazing clothes can they really enter the beauty market with amazing products. This post includeS most of the clothing stores I have found to stock their own beauty range and whether the products are with the money.


TOPSHOP

This is probably the first clothing store I noticed to bring out their own makeup range and they did it so well. Their prices are more of the upper end of drugstore range with lipsticks at £8, nail polishes at £6 and face products between £8 and £12. The packaging is also quite unique with it being matte cream with black crayon like writing and patterns. Some of my favourite products from the collection are the lipsticks since their shade selection would come close to MAC's, the nail polish collection also has every colour you could think of and their Glow Pot and Horizon highlighter are two of other my favourites.

H&M

I noticed a few years back that H&M has some beauty products but their range seemed very limited and they products didn't look that great. However, at the end of last year they came out with a brand new collection and it looked incredible, of course I needed some. The collection packaging is all in the colour scheme of cream, black and gold and it all looks really sleek in my opinion. I have to say my favourite product from their collection is the nail polishes as there is literally any colour you could want and the formula is amazing too. I also really like the single eyeshadows and the blushers. Next to try on my list is the cream blushers and the lipsticks.

PRIMARK

This is another new kid on the block and its pretty impressive. Primark have always had beauty products in stock such as fake tan, lip balms, travel minis etc. but it's only this year i've noticed them bring out their own makeup range. Their range is at cheaper end of the spectrum with prices from under £1 to £3/4. From the collection I've tried their lipliners (post), lip crayon and eyeshadow palette and I have to say they really are quite good. For the price I wasn't expecting amazing quality but it really is quite good, although it doesn't live up to the more expensive brands! I have yet to try any of their face products or things like mascara but I would be willing to considering the cheap prices.

NEW LOOK

This is another new collection (or one i've only just noticed) that New Look have brought to the market. At first I wasn't really drawn to the collection and it's pretty boring packaging but after swatching some of the products in my local store I ended up buying quite a few items. The prices for the items are quite reasonable and definitely worth the quality of the products. The lip products are the ones that have really impressed me and their lip crayons, lip liners and liquid lipsticks are winning me over. They have this amazing Camel nude shade that i'm loving and the Mink shade is gorgeous too!
