Liverpool Trip Part 1 - Travelling and Peaches and Cream

 Hey cuties

We've just recently came back from our trip to Liverpool city to celebrate Clairey finishing her exams and a much needed holiday for Amy! We always wanted to go to Liverpool as it's a massive city for shopping, dining out and it's culture. It's also our first trip away for a very long time too and luckily we had the sun 🌞

With all the stress of travelling down (it's a long trip) we forgot to get proper outfit photos but snapped these ones quickly. Amy bought these matching sequin heart kimonos from the Scottish independent brand Isolated Heroes 💕 Because the kimonos can be worn day and night Clairey went for a more casual look and Amy went for a pink Y2K look. 

As we said before it took a few trains to get to Liverpool, but we still managed to get in some cute selfies! For our make up this time, we wanted to still do gyaru but without the under-lashes as we were going to do full long days in a heatwave. We watched one of Emiriichu's tutorials where she showed how she did he lower eye shape and loved it. So thank you Emi for the tips 💖

Look at Clairey's magical girl mask, so cute! It was a gift but I think you can find it on Etsy 💟

Very pink Very Amy 😂

Once we arrived in Liverpool and dropped off our bags at the hotel we went straight to Peaches and Cream, an amazing independent make up company and salon known for their amazing colourful pigments. (Image taken from their Facebook) 

It's even more colourful and fabulous inside 💖 We wish we took more pictures instore because it was just a cute colourful paradise. The staff were so lovely and sweet and couldn't do enough for you. They do loads and loads of different bundles as you can see which is extra nice on my purse! We already had quite the shopping list prepared for Peaches so we went straight to business 😂

Another thing we HAVE to mention is their packaging! All of the pigments are packaged in the cutest print boxes and they have limited edition boxes too which we got two of as they didn't have the pastel box the first time we visited, so the lovely staff gave us the doll case which is straight on our vanity 💄

We picked up two glosses and their glitter pigment eye primer, an eyeliner and pigment drops too. Pretty much the whole kit and some brushes too but they're already packed away 😅 The shop staff advised us on which eye brushes to pick up (which they also had a bundle for) and when we used them the next day they were amazing. 

Onto swatches, it was a perfect sunny day and the glitter and reflect were so blinding in the sun. 😍 We also took some videos for Tiktok that show of just how sparkly they are in real life. From left to right we have:

She's All That, Rattle Snake, Snake Bite, Pool Party, Planet Peach, Disco, Gatsby, Night Fever and Pixie (Iridescent shimmer so it was hard to get a true photo of it but it's gorgeous)

We bought Disco and Gatsby (Silver and Gold) as we think they'll be perfect for the undereye highlight glitter that you see in AV gyaru make a lot. Clairey couldn't choose between Rattle Snake and Snake bite so we went back and got both! We both love Pool Party which is a perfect blue teal with a gold reflect and Planet Peach as they are just made for summer. We cannot wait to do a look with these shadows but onto the glosses!

From left to right there is: 

Bellini, Flamingo, Shimmy, Tease and Back Chat

We previously bought the 3 peach toned glosses before but wanted to show them off as they're perfect for summer. Bellini and Shimmy have a gorgeous glitter in them too. We both love Tease and Back Chat, even though there similar their undertones just give such a different look. They smell amazing without being over powering. You can build up the coverage too so they're cute for daily wear or built up for full colour.

Clairey also bought this hoodie from Peaches and Cream which were all hand tie dyed with each hoodie being different from the other. She picked this one as it was the most rainbow coloured and it's super soft and cosy. So nice for the cooler nights and you know Clairey's wearing it for fall too. 

We also picked up the Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor moisturiser which is so good we super recommend it and wish we bought it sooner 💖 It has SPF 30 in which makes it handy for summer. Amy bought a new hair dye too but used it after taking this photo and doesn't recommend it 😕

Anyways blog soon cuties 💖 Hope everyone is enjoying this nice weather ⛅ In our next Liverpool post we will have our shopping haul and boy did we go to town! 😉😘
