Review | Bell Cosmetics


First of all, I want to apologise for not posting in a while. If you follow me on Twitter you'll know that I've been so busy and I just haven't been able to find the time to blog. :( It feels so good to be back writing again though and I have a lot of exciting blog posts planned!

A few week ago, I was sent a lovely package from Beauty Crowd. I have previously spoke about this website as it's fab! They stock some really amazing brands which are hard to get hold of here in England. They contacted me and asked me if I would like to review some products from a new brand which is now available on the website.

I was so excited when I received the parcel and was so pleased with the products they chose for me. The brand is Bell Cosmetics, a polish company who has had 30 years experience in the beauty industry. The products I was sent were from their Hypoallergenic range, these are high quality products but at the same time extremely affordable. I have been trying out all these products for a few week now so I know exactly how I feel about them.

Hypoallergenic Mat and Smooth Makeup Base -  This light pink makeup base is gorgeous! It applied onto my skin really nicely and left me with smooth and brightened skin. I found that this base also minimized the pores on my skin which was an added bonus. I have seemed to grab for this every day since I got it, it makes my foundation glide onto my skin flawlessly and made my makeup last all day without going patchy! This is definitely worth £7.95.

Bell Cosmetics Matte & Soft Foundation - This foundation retails for £7.95 and comes in 3 different shades. The shade I was sent was "Light Beige" which is a little light for me as I fake tan all the time. But I did try the foundation as I wanted to review it for you. It's a light to medium coverage but can be built up, I had to build it up quite a bit to cover my problem areas but once applied it looked flawless. This is a very lightweight foundation and would be great for the summer time when you don't want to wear too much makeup.

After applying the foundation I used the Liquid Eye Concealer in the shade 01. This concealer comes in 2 shades, I'm so happy with the shade I got as it is the lightest and I love light concealers for under my eye and to highlight with! This is so creamy and blends out like a dream! The concealer retails for £3.95 which is an incredible price for such a great product.

Bell Cosmetics matte powder - This is a pigmented setting powder available in 4 different shades and costs just £4.95 . This left my skin with a matte finish and worked really well with the foundation, the combination of both left a flawless face. I have combination skin and therefore I tend to have a really oily t-zone, this powder seemed to control my oiliness but did have to be re-applied a second time throughout the day. The only negative thing I have to say about this powder is that there isn't a translucent shade, I feel like this powder would be great in translucent and if it became available I would definitely purchase it!

Bell Cosmetics Thickening Mascara - Mascaras are one of my favourite beauty products so I was unbelievably happy when beauty crowd sent me one. I have been using this mascara none stop, it thickens and slightly lengthens my lashes without making them look clumpy. I applied two coats of this after curling my lashes and it didn't seem to flake at all throughout the day. Honestly an amazing mascara for £4.95!

The whole of the Bell Cosmetics Hypoallergenic range is available exclusively at www.beautycrowd.com!

Lastly, a big thank you to Harriet at Beauty Crowd for letting me try these out before they became available on the website, I really appreciate it!
