So... You've seen the products I loved from the Beauty & the Bloggers event but we decided to really test some of the products from ASOS Beauty during a shoot.
I was uber excited to receive the cute pink mini hair straighteners. I picked them up at the event to see how heavy they were but never pulled the cord out all the way... To be honest I didn't think I would need to, but lesson learnt, check everything! These straighteners are for the car! Yes bizarre I know... I emptied the packet, searched everywhere and could not find an adapter to use them normally.
My verdict: Ummm sneaky ASOS. I certainly wouldn't recommend straightening your hair whilst driving so perhaps they're good for just a quick style fix in the car before you head off to your destination. They plug in to the cigarette lighter connection and come in a heat protective pouch to put them in even if they haven't cooled down. I still can't quite my head around them, but at £10 each they have already sold out!
CHECK OUT THE PICS & THE PRODUCTS FROM OUR BEAUTY SHOOT.
CLEAN & CHIC:
The hair was loosley pinned back and sprayed very lightly with hairspray.
Dr:Feelgood Complexion Balm was used to give the skin a soft texture and glow
underneath the foundation and concealer.
The brows were given thickness and definition and
pink eyeshadow was swept across the brow bone to highlight and add a soft shimmer.
£26.50
Underneath the eyes were brightened
with the 'some kind-a-gorgeous foundation faker' from the Justine Case.
I personally haven't stopped using the kit since the shoot!
£22.50
The lipgloss was spread over the lips for a sheer and sophisticated look.
I also love the Divine, Lily Rose & Torture colours.

The ASOS Beauty range is fabulous! At their recent Press Day I had a sneak preview of the Spring Summer ASOS Paint colours. I can't wait to get my hands on some next year - or some on my hands should I say! Ha ha! Happy shopping!
