ZOEVA Rose Golden Palette

I saw this palette a while ago on a beauty blog and instantly knew I had to have it. It’s not long launched here in the UK, but it’s already a cult favourite!

I just adore the packaging, everything about it! It’s made out of cardboard, but it feels sturdy and durable and it is a gorgeous kind of coffee/red velvet chocolate colour. It has a beautiful rose gold design on the front, with swirls and then a centered key. It has a magnetic closing, which is quite strong because if you hold it from the top when closed and give it a shake, the two parts don’t separate (palette doesn’t open). It has a light feel in general and inside it’s all one beautiful colour and the eyeshadows are well spaced. Around each pan is a rose gold diamond border and underneath in small rose gold letters are the shade names. On the back of the palette is the usual ingredients and other information blurbs.

You get ten full size eyeshadows (0.5oz) with matte, metallic or satin finishes and each has a cute and creative name:-

LUSTER - nude beige (matte)

REFLECTIVE ELEGANCE - light pink bronze (metallic)

COPPER IS KING - rich copper (metallic)

SHINING BRIGHT - shimmery taupe (metallic)

RUSTY PETALS - rusty pink toned brown (metallic)

FOIL - light gold (metallic)

JUST A ROSE - rose gold (metallic)

GOLDEN RULE - dark gold (metallic)

HARMONY - charcoal grey (matte)

WONDER FULL - dark chocolate brown (matte)

This palette is absolutely stunning! All ten shades are beautifully pigmented, soft and easy to blend together. It is light, compact and creatively designed, which makes it incredibly appealing to me. I really can’t find any faults with this palette, especially for the price! There was a minor flaw with my palette, the pan for the shade Foil fell out, but luckily the eyeshadow didn’t crumble and I stuck it back in with glue. This isn’t a reflection on the brand or the palette itself, I just happened to get a slightly dodgy one. My favourite shades from the palette have to be, Copper Is King and Just A Rose. Not only are the names so adorable and creative, but to me they are the true rose gold shades, which is what this palette is all about!

Serial Sampler #17

I chose this sample as my free gift with purchase and I hadn’t heard of the brand before. It happens to be part of a series of four fragrances and they are all unisex/genderless. The designs of the full sized bottles are very interesting and artsy. Looking at the four, had I been able to pick which one to receive, I most likely would have chosen the one called 10am Flirt as it seems the fruitiest based of the four. The sample I have is Santal Sky by KIERIN NYC and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum. “Intertwined like vines, we stroll through Central Park. Leaves release their woody fragrance. Under a canopy of trees, in the center of it all, we are a million miles from city life. Music from impromptu drum circles, the rhythm of runners’ footsteps, diverse languages fill my ears like poetry. This retreat into nature refreshes my soul. The sun smiling down upon us, I pull my loved one close. In synchronicity we breathe.” It contains a mixture notes, such ...

Perfume Power! - Harajuku Lovers 'G'

I received this perfume as an Easter gift from a family member. The bottle design is really cute. It has a doll figure cap, which lifts off and the actual bottle is clear and simple glass, it kind of has a flower shaped base. The size I have is very small, so it is handy for your handbag. And I suppose you could keep the doll for collector’s purposes, when you have used up the perfume. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Crisp Mandarin, Fresh Coconut & Apple Skin Middle Notes: Jasmine Sambac, Soft Freesia & Magnolia Vapour Base Notes: Coconut Cream, White Sandalwood & Cottonwoods To me it smells really strong for an eau de toilette. I quite like the scent because it is very feminine and quite sweet. The only thing I don’t like about it is the coconut. I don’t really like the coconut scent anyway. Other than that, it smells amazing, until the coconut hits your nose. I can also smell the floral side to it as well, the coconut does complement the flor...
