Tarte X Hrush Achemyan Styled By Hrush Eye & Cheek Palette

I am reviewing this little gem today. I saw online a while ago that it would be released, but I wasn’t sure where it would be available in the UK. I was just browsing RosesBeautyStore, like I do most days, and saw this palette in the ‘new products’ section. I bought it straight away, no hesitation at all! This palette was put together by Hrush Achemyan, and she handpicked all of the shades so that they could complement any skin tone or eye colour.
Hrush Achemyan is a self-taught make-up artist and has many celebrity followers. She also has her own brand, ‘Styled by Hrush’. She does a lot celebrities make-up for red carpet appearances, mostly the Kardashian girls, who I believe she is good friends with.
The outer packaging for this palette is made of card and the actual packaging of the product is quite classy, but eye-catching. It kind of reminds me of a clutch bag/purse. It is quite small and is made of gold reflecting plastic, but the black pattern on the front has a leather feel. It has the usual opening, where you push your nail on it and the lid pops up, this also allows you to snap it closed and it won’t open if you put it in your make-up bag. It also has a mirror on the inside, which is the full length and width of the top side of the palette. It comes with a little doubled-sided look card, which has four examples of how the palette can be used to create Daytime, Soiree, Work Flow and Play Time looks.
You get six Amazonian Clay eyeshadows (0.8g) in matte and shimmery finishes. Each one is really soft and buttery and applies like a dream. They are also incredibly pigmented, just like every other Tarte palette I have tried. I always recommend using a primer, no matter the quality of the eyeshadows. The shades are:-

BLISS - WHITE GOLD
SMITTEN - PINK CHAMPAGNE
ROYAL - SHIMMERING BERRY
PINCH - WARM GOLDEN PEACH
KITTY - MATTE BROWN
VAMP- TAUPE

You also get an Amazonian Clay blush (4g) in CHEEKY, which is a MATTE CORAL. This is also really soft and pigmented and such a beautiful colour.

This little palette is just gorgeous! I am so glad I saw it and didn’t hesitate clicking the buy button. The eyeshadow shades are stunning and I think Royal is my favourite shade. The blush is also a really nice soft shade. All of the colours complement each other; they kind of remind me of a glam Autumn evening. I highly recommend this palette and I think it would suit absolutely anyone.

BY BEAUTY BAY New Romantic Palette

I first saw the tease post of this palette on Beauty Bay’s Instagram page on 29 th January and it was a black and white photo, so you couldn’t see the colour story but some of the shades names were a little bit of a giveaway to some possible shades (Raspberry, Flamingo and Khaki etc). On the 31 st January, they posted another tease photo of the shade Queen and this really when the colour story was confirmed. The full reveal post was on 1 st February, the same day as the palette launched. I bought it on launch day; I half expected it to already be sold out, but luckily for me it wasn’t. The formula of the eyeshadows looked like in the NikkieTutorials Palette, which I hoped the shimmers would be as they are stunning. Beauty Bay also had two other palettes that are the same sort of concept; Sunset Horizons and Book of Magic (discontinued). I decided not to purchase these two as I wasn’t completely sold on the colour stories for the usage I would personally get out of them, but they did...

Serial Sampler #11

Today I have a mini mascara to share with you. It is In Extreme Dimension 3D Black Lash by MAC and it is a 1g sample of the full size mascara. It is supposed to give your lashes extreme volume, a deep black colour and give them a slight curl. I didn’t reckon much to this mascara at all! It coated my lashes in black pigment, separated them, made them look defined and gave them a slight curl, but no volume! I don’t know if the formula just doesn’t like my lashes or whether the brush is different. The brush kind of looks different to the full sized tube from photos I have seen, but I don’t know why they wouldn’t use the same brush for the sample because the brush makes the formula work. I’m guessing I would have to purchase the full size to find out, which I will not be doing. This was my first ever experience with MAC mascaras and it hasn’t put me off. You can buy the full sized tube for £19.50 and it is available for sale at MACcosmetics.co.uk and MAC stores. ♥...
