    Miners Cosmetics

    I recently came across a brand of cosmetics called 'Miners Cosmetics', now i'd never heard of them before this and i'd only come across them through watching someone mention them on a review on youtube and they only reviewed a bronzer from this brand but they really recommended it.  So with this i decided to have a peek myself and see what they were all about!
    Well...There website boasts that there the 'Proud Sponsers of Dancing On Ice!'
     
     
    I put together a small sample order of a few bits including the exact bronzer that was recommended  along with a few lip products and a couple of chubby eyeliners.  I must say the bronzer is fab!, especially at a mere £2.99 each (was £4.99).  The Tin o Tint's (Lip Balm) are nice aswell, they come in a cute little tin and are in a variety of scents/flavours and are priced at £2.99 each.  The chubby eye liners (Love Phat Liner) are good also, i only bought the black and brown but they also do a gold and navy blue and are on sale at £1.99 each (was £3.99).  I wanted to try a couple of lip products so i picked up a few of 'The Matte Factor' Lip Paints and to be honest i'm not sure about these.  I felt as though i needed to apply a coat of clear lipgloss over the top, which of course defies the whole product as there supposed to be 'Matte' but in my opinion they felt very dry and as tho they needed abit of something extra! and they were £3.99 each.  And finally i sampled there 'Sweet Lips' Lipgloss which was a complete waste of 99p (was £2.99).  There was just no colour at all, even though i bought a pink shade it just looked clear!
     
    So all in all i'd say they have a few good products and i cannot fault the packaging they came in.  They arrived in good time and were beautifully presented in a strong box which had all the products carefully tissue wrapped inside.  Not sure i liked them enough to place another order but what i would say is there cheap enough to try for yourself and if like me your not convinced then at least you hav'nt spent a fortune.
