CARGO Let's Meet In Paris Palette

I was browsing FeelUnique and came across this palette and I had no idea it existed! I am in love with anything French/Parisian, so I just had to have this palette.
The design is very French and classy. It has a black fabric covering with a gold damask chandelier print all over it, which covers the whole palette. It has a magnetic flip opening, which reveals a mirror and a black plastic base which houses twelve eyeshadows. Also included inside the palette is a dual ended eyeshadow brush.
The eyeshadows are very pigmented and soft. Each one is 0.8g and there is a mixture of different shades and finishes. You have very wearable shades and then pops of colour. Even though they are much pigmented, I would still use an eye primer because it will just add to the pigmentation and quality.
MACARON - metallic light gold shimmer
EIFFEL TOWER - true metallic gold
LOUVRE - metallic blue based silver
CRÈME BRÛLÉE - metallic gold copper
BONJOUR - dark brown with gold glitter
CAFÉ - dark chocolate brown with gold glitter
BAGUETTE - soft matte beige
CROISSANT - duo chrome brown with green hue
VERSAILLES - dark metallic forest green with glitter
MADAME - dark metallic purple with glitter
BASTILLE - metallic gunmetal with glitter
BERET - smoky metallic black with glitter
The brush included is dual ended, with one end being a slanted eyeliner brush and the other being a small shading brush. It is a very handy inclusion in this palette.

I love the design of this palette so much and the eyeshadow names are so cute. The design is simply beautiful and you get a good mixture of eyeshadows. They are also decently sized and the only disappointment is the shade Bastille, which barely swatched at all and it has a strange texture which is different to the other eleven, so I would call this the dud shade of this otherwise stunning palette. The brush is quite handy, but I prefer using my favourite eye brushes. The magnetic fastening is very sturdy and the overall palette feels very durable. The inside plastic base can get dirty, but you can clean this with a small damp cotton bud if you like.

Overall this is a great palette and it is extremely versatile. In truth I probably wouldn’t get much use out of it, but the Parisian theme just sold it for me. As I was quite late getting this palette,  I don’t believe it is widely available anymore.

Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte Darling Easy Eye Palette

I have another Charlotte Tilbury palette post for you today; I have been on a roll with them! You can definitely tell I am a fan of her eyeshadow formula. There are loads of other CT products I would love to try, but I am slowing down the purchases for now as I do have a confession to make at the end of this post! THE PACKAGING The packaging is made of shiny maroon plastic and it has a short, thin and rectangular shape. It has a metallic gold starburst design across the front. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift up to reveal the rectangular eyeshadow pans arranged in threes across a mirrored gold base. The group names are printed on the back of the palette. The shades don’t really have names, but there is a removable plastic insert included which labels the eyeshadows as 1 Prime, 2 Enhance or 3 Smoke. There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 0.9g eyeshadows in Matte (M) and Metallic (ME) finishes.   ·    ...

Katie Price 'Stunning' Perfume VS JoJo Siwa 'Be You' Perfume - Are they the same?

I was browsing on AllBeauty.com and looking at celebrity fragrances and I saw that one was listed for JoJo Siwa. I had heard of JoJo before, but I don’t really know anything about her. I clicked on it out of interest and when I first saw the image of the perfume, I thought maybe the wrong photograph had been uploaded until I clicked on it and saw the description of the perfume. When I first saw the photograph, before I clicked on it to read the description, I instantly thought, that’s Stunning by Katie Price! I looked into it a bit more and compared it to Stunning. The JoJo Siwa “version” is called Be You. Photo Source: Perfume.com Stunning by Katie Price ·          Released in 2007 (12 years ago). ·          Contains the notes; Mandarin Orange, Jasmine & Patchouli. ·          Classed as a floral scent. ·       ...

Benefit Cheek Stars Reunion Tour Palette

I’ve wanted to try the highlighter Cookie from Benefit for ages, but always decided against purchasing a single of it as I always declutter the single boxed powders by Benefit, so I didn’t want to waste money again. Also, I have far too many single highlighters (OFRA ♥) as it is! I kept seeing Beauty Influencers on YouTube use this palette, so I decided to purchase it for myself. You get five full sized powders inside a cute compact palette. You also get a free face brush which also fits inside the palette and a Tips & Tricks Card. You can purchase it for £53.50 ($60.00) from BenefitCosmetics.com. There is also a mini version available of this palette (Cheek Stars Mini Reunion Tour Palette), which includes; Georgia, Sugarbomb and Hoola for £26.00 ($30.00). All five powders are also available in singles and mini/travel singles.
