EOTD #5 - Weekend Wonderer

I am wearing the exact same make-up as I wore yesterday, and I quite like it so I thought I would share it with you. I used the Urban Decay Naked Palette.

Eyes:-

For priming on the lid and lower lash line I used Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin. I used the Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sidecar on my lid, Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Toasted in my crease and then Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Hustle on my outer corners. I used NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk to highlight my inner corners and then on the lower lashline I used Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Toasted on the inner part and Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Hustle on the outer part and blended them together. I then lined my upper lashline with Rimmel Special Eyes Precision Eye Liner Pencil in 161 Black Magic and used this to line a third of my waterline. Lastly I applied three coats of my Maybelline The Colossal Volum’ Express Cat Eyes Mascara in Black to my upper lashes and one coat to my lower lashes.

Lips:-

For my lips I used some Carmex Moisturising Lip Balm in Cherry and Sleek Pout Polish in Monte Carlo.

Face:-

I used Rimmel Fix & Perfect Pro Primer in 002 to prime my face and then I used my Collection 2000 Colour Match Foundation in 1 Ivory all over my face and then I used my Rimmel Match Perfection Concealer in 010 Ivory to conceal under my eyes and any blemishes I had. I then applied my Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in 001 Transparent all over my face to set the face make-up. Lastly I used my Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil in 002 Hazel on my eyebrows and then set it with 2true Instant Colour Mascara in 1 Clear as my brow gel.

Violet Voss X Laura Lee Palette

After being blown away by the Holy Grail Palette, I just couldn’t pass on this one! The shade selection doesn’t appeal to me as much, but I know the quality will be there. Also, this palette is limited edition so I wouldn’t recommend hesitating if you are interested in it. I believe this palette is a collaboration with a YouTuber called Laura Lee. I don’t know anything about Laura, but from what I gather she makes beauty videos. The palette design is similar to the Holy Grail Palette but the colour scheme is different, but it still has the holographic effect on the packaging. It has a rectangular shape to it and it is slightly bulky and has a little weight to it. It has a magnetic closing and when you lift the lid it reveals the eyeshadow pans and a mirror. The packaging colour scheme is black and silver. You get twenty 36g eyeshadows in a variety of shades and finishes.

Serial Sampler #42

I have wanted to try this fragrance for a very long time and I have seen the advertisements with Charlize Theron countless times over the years. For some reason, I just didn’t look for it to test so I thought it was about time I did. I decided to purchase a sample online. It is J’adore by Christian Dior and it is a 1ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum. “ J’adore’s original composition is a sophisticated harmony blossoming from Comoro Islands Ylang-Ylang and Damascus Rose Essences and Jasmine Sambac Absolute. ” Launched: 1999 Type: Floral Fruity / Feminine Notes Top: Pear, Melon, Magnolia, Peach, Mandarin Orange and Bergamot. Middle: Jasmine, Lily-Of-The-Valley, Tuberose, Freesia, Rose, Orchid, Plum and Violet. Base: Musk, Vanilla, Blackberry and Cedar. My assumption before testing this fragrance is that it would smell like an old classic (old lady) floral. It is very floral, but you do get the hit of the fresh fruity notes. I can mostly detect the Magnoli...

Becca's Babble's #4: My Current Favourite Songs

Photo: TheDJ.co.uk I thought I would post about something different today, something not beauty related. I have found myself listening to more music lately, seeing as though I have more time on my hands whilst the UK is on a sort of lockdown and I cannot go to work. By listening to more music, I mean more of the songs I have downloaded. I don’t really get to hear much new music as I do not listen to the radio or watch music channels on the TV. I am also kind of old school with music. I actually download the songs onto my PC instead of using a music streaming service. I just personally find it easier; I can then copy the songs to my phone. Streaming sites tend to delete their content after a while, but if you have the songs downloaded, you can never lose them until you delete them. I do subscribe to Amazon Music for my Echo Dot though, but I do find it incredibly frustrating when Alexa doesn’t understand what I want her to play, even though I am saying it in plain English!! Anyway...
