Pixi sheer cheek gel review

M: I’ve been visited by fairies again, E.

E: Jesus, you’ve been drinking meths, haven’t you? I’ve told you about that.

M: I think the seche vite is going to my brain.

E: If you will snort it, that will happen.

M: Anyway. I won this little tube of goodness in Modesty Brown‘s giveaway. And it is ace.

E: Oooh. Tell me more. What is the tube of goodness?

M: It’s blush. And it’s made by fairies. It’s as if someone had crushed a punnet of healthy rosy cheeks and crammed it into a handy tube. What more do you want to know?

E: Errrr. I dunno. (tries to think of hard beauty bloggist questions). Is it, er, a gel?

M: Yes, it’s a gel. And it’s fool proof. You can put tonnes of it on without worrying about it. It just gives a nice healthy glow, like you’re eating healthily and getting regular exercise and shit. It doesn’t cake or crust (am I the only one who has that problem with blusher?)

E: Yes. Yes you are. But I like the putting tonnes on bit. Unlike Armani Fluid Sheers which are nuclear bright. Brilliant, but to be used with caution. And what kind of fairies have done this with their tiny fairy hands?

M: Yes. It’s so good it’s quenched my thirst for the  Lizard King’s Fluid Sheer, for the time being.

E: Awesome. TELL ME WHO THE FAIRIES ARE. Are they expensive fairies? I need to know. Do they have dietary requirements I need to know about while they are squishing healthy rosy cheeks for me?

M: Pixi. It’s £12 I think.

E: Not bad at all. I like.

M: You can feed them, err, british pounds.

E: Good. The next time I have any of those, I will go feed the pixies.

M: You do that. Now leave me alone, I have some frolicking in a meadow to do.

M’s crushed pixie is Natural coloured, free through the goodness of strangers or £12 from ASOS. But if you’re after other colours you can get them cheap from Amazon.

Nars Multiple review

M: E, would you say we are BFFs?

E: Yes, I suppose so. Noone else will talk to me about sloths and killing and despair and the evil of POI.

M: Then we should have something to celebrate this. Like, a slumber party. And friendship bracelets. Or, no, one of those love heart necklaces that break in 2.

E: Can’t we just do KILLING? And GIN?

M: Hmmm. You are not really in the spirit of this.

E: Sorry. Ok, slumber party! Whoop! YEAH! We could braid each other’s hair even though mine isn’t real.

M: Ha, and even though mine is a nest for small animals, like ferrets and meerkats.

E: Yeah, on second thoughts, forget about the braiding.

M: OK, how about some identi-makeup?

E: Yeah! Because we both have NARS MULTIPLES.

M: Yes! What’s yours?

E: Mmmmmm. Embarassingly I have the notorious ‘Orgasm’. You?

M: I have the much classier Portofino. You are Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. I am Gwynnie “Goop” Paltrow in Mr Ripley.

E: Hmmm. I know it’s vulgar, but I love it. A man with bad acne made me buy it in Liverpool Street.

M: Was this in the actual street?

E: Noooo, in Space NK. It’s not knock off, under the coat, Nars. I wouldn’t dare do that to the faceless consortium behind “Mr” “Nars”. I only buy from authorised stockists. How much do you love your multiple, M?

M: Well, to be honest, I am not that super fond of it. I mean, it’s nice, and the colour is pretty and everything. But I find it a bit hard to blend, and I have very strong, lustful feelings for the Armani Fluid Sheer, who will be mine one day, all mine.

E: Ha. Whereas Orgasm, I do pretty much love. I have much classier, better behaved blushers. Like the pink half of my Armani creme blush duo and a nice Laura Mercier but Orgasm has SPARKLY BITS and it is deliciously vulgar, like a second division footballer’s wife.

M: Where do you put yours?

E: Cheekbones. Very occasionally lips. Pop of blusher with the Armani bronzier colour under the cheekbone? You?

M: Snap. And sometimes eyes. Never lips, it’s a bit dry. WOOH! MULTIPLE BFFS!

E: Wooooh! Can we kill stuff now or should we talk about the product a bit more?

M: Nah, everyone knows what it is. Let’s go spit at grannies in the street.

E: This is the best sleepover EVER.

Nars Multiple, £27
