Violet Voss Holy Grail Palette

I had heard of this cosmetic brand before, but I never looked into it. I’m not really sure of the origins, but a picture of this palette flashed up on the homepage of BeautyBay and I just clicked it. A few more clicks later and I am now a proud owner of the Violet Voss Holy Grail Palette!
The palette itself 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 matches the eyeshadow shades, brown and burgundy.
You get twenty 36g warm neutral toned eyeshadows in a variety of finishes.
CRYSTAL - champagne nude shimmer
PLOOF - bronzed rose pink neutral
THANKS A LATTE - matte nude
TRANSITION - matte honey coffee
HASHTAG - rich terracotta
AWESOME SAUCE - copper shimmer
BESTIE - matte mocha cream
TOFFEE - duo-chrome brown with shimmer
CHILL - shimmery chocolate gold
HOW U DOIN - pink toned bronze shimmer
BAT MY EYES - deep brown shimmer
COOL BEANS - pale chocolate shimmer
R U KITTEN ME - matte brown with terracotta
SO JELLY - deep rose pink shimmer
ON FLEEK - chocolate orange with petal pink
BROWNIE POINTS - matte dark coffee
TEDDY BEAR - dark burgundy with brown
GLAMPING - metallic chocolate rouge shimmer
CRANBERRY SPLASH - dark pink shimmer
WINE N DINE - matte dark berry rouge with wine

The eyeshadows should all be highly pigmented and enable smooth blending to create flawless looks.

The shade selection is absolutely gorgeous! The eyeshadows are soft, buttery, highly and extremely pigmented as well as being effortless to blend! I am completely blown away by this palette and it has now overtaken Tarte as my favourite eyeshadow brand! You can use them wet, although you don’t need to as they look so intense like they are already wet. I find just wearing eye primer underneath is all you need. I am now very excited for any future palettes Violet Voss has to offer.

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...

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...

LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #6 - October 2020

I was hoping to have posted about this last Thursday, but it took a while for my box to arrive. There was an issue with some people’s subscriptions and it mean’t some orders were not generated for existing subscribers. The issue was corrected and I have now received my box. Last month’s box was the Birthday Edition and this month we have the Retreat Edition with an indigo themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether! Here is what I received this month:- GLOV Hair Wrap | £14.99 | This hair towel is made of from microfibres, which means it is gentler for your hair. I use a hair wrap towel every time I wash my hair, so this will come in very handy. I usually prefer darker colour towels as white ones look grubby after a while. | Full Size - £14.99 | ECOOKING Overnight Foot Cream | 30ml - £8.10 | This foot cream is supposed to remove dead skin as well as moisturise. It works best overnight and it is recommend that you wear socks over the cr...
