Blogmas #4 | Maybelline Color Tattoo 24HR Cream Gel Eyeshadow

I have been meaning to review this product for ages, but I couldn’t decide if I wanted to get more shades to review. I was very interested in trying these because I wanted to get a gold base for Half Baked eyeshadow by Urban Decay and from then I have purchased two more and have a few more in mind for future purchases.
I have three shades, 05 - Eternal Gold (45 - Bold Gold), which is a glittery, shimmery medium toned dark gold with a metallic finish, 65 - Pink Gold (55 - Inked In Pink), which is a frosty mauve pink with a metallic finish and 35 - On and On Bronze (25 - Bad To The Bronze), which is a warmed up bronze brown with a metallic finish. I really want Barely Beige and Barely Branded, but sadly they are not available in the UK!
The packaging is a round clear glass pot with a black plastic lid. You have to twist the lid to get it off and it is mean’t to be air tight. The formulas vary because some of the shades have glitter in them, but they are quite creamy but not too creamy that it is going to smear. You get 4g of product in each glass pot.

This product is supposed to provide your eye look with colour that pops and the colour is meant to be super saturated because of the pigment technology. The product is meant to glide onto your eye lids smoothly, last up to twenty-four hours and be fade proof.

This is a must have product! The packaging is lovely and slightly resembles the MAC Paint Pots. The pigmentation is brilliant and each shade just pops! The texture is soft and creamy, which enables it to glide onto your lids. You can use a flat eyeshadow brush to apply it, but I prefer using my finger for a more saturated looking finish. The colour does fade slightly as it wears, but it isn’t majorly noticeable. It does not last twenty-four hours at all. It lasts around six and if you set it with a powder eyeshadow, it will last a lot longer.

Overall it does fail with the twenty-four hour wear claim, but it is still an amazing product. It is also a hell of a lot cheaper than the Benefit and MAC ones, which I love too!

Serial Sampler #34

I’ve had this sample for a while now and I’ve only just decided to test it. I also have another sample of a spin-off scent from the same fragrance line, which I will post soon.   It is Candy by PRADA and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   “ Prada Candy combines exceptionally high-quality ingredients in excessive proportions. Magnified by musks, noble benzoin comes together with a modern caramel accord to give the fragrance a truly unique signature ” Launched: 2011   Type: Oriental Vanilla Notes Top: Caramel. Middle: Musk and Powder. Base: Benzoin and Vanilla. I wasn’t expecting to like this fragrance when I looked at the notes and I was right! It smells kind of woody (burnt wood) and like celery. It is most definitely a spicy oriental scent and it is not me at all. It is quite strong, but it isn’t overpowering. I would say it is a unisex scent as it isn’t sweet. With a name like Candy, I was expecting some sweetness. There is the Caramel note whi...

LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #2 - June 2020

I decided to re-subscribe to the LookFantastic Beauty Box and I pre-ordered my June box on 22 nd May. It arrived yesterday (3 rd June) and I couldn’t wait to unbox it. My first and last LF Beauty Box was September 2014; I can’t believe it has nearly been six years! I initially un-subscribed due to the price (£15.00) and I mostly received skin care items and at the time, I was only really interested in make-up. I already saw a sneak peek for the June box (Staycation Edition), which is why I re-subscribed (the May box was sold out anyway). It was to supposed to be worth over £61.00 and the items would arrive in a travel bag. I knew I would receive a shower gel and possibly a hair brush as they were pictured. The postage for Look Fantastic is usually £2.95, but I believe it is free for Beauty Box subscriptions only. Here is what I received:- LookFantastic Beauty Bag | £12.00 | This is a cute aqua blue zipped travel bag, which contains the rest of the beauty products. ...

BY BEAUTY BAY Fiery 16 Colour Palette

This is the third BY BEAUTY BAY make-up product I’ve tried and I did see it on the website when it first launched, but never picked it up. It was always sold out anyway so I couldn’t get it and the packaging has just been re-vamped for all of their palettes and all of the products were re-stocked. I decided to pick this one up because of the size, it’s not too small and it’s not too big. The nine shade version of this palette is all matte, and I really like shimmers/metallic and the massive forty-two shade version is too big (too many shades and too big to store in my drawers). I thought the sixteen shade palette would be the perfect medium. My palette actually arrived faulty; one of the eyeshadows is missing (Burnt Sienna). In the spot were Burnt Sienna should be there is actually a duplicate of another shade in the palette (Sunstone). Basically, I have two Sunstone eyeshadows and I should only have one. I don’t have the shade Burnt Sienna when I should have one of them (abov...
