Violet Voss X Laura Lee Palette

After being blown away by the Holy Grail Palette, I just couldn’t pass on this one! The shade selection doesn’t appeal to me as much, but I know the quality will be there. Also, this palette is limited edition so I wouldn’t recommend hesitating if you are interested in it.
I believe this palette is a collaboration with a YouTuber called Laura Lee. I don’t know anything about Laura, but from what I gather she makes beauty videos.
The palette design is similar to the Holy Grail Palette but the colour scheme is different, but it still has the holographic effect on the packaging. It 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 is black and silver.
You get twenty 36g eyeshadows in a variety of shades and finishes.

BASIC - matte creamy ivory
SUGAH - champagne shimmer
PRISS POT - matte peach
MAMA BIRD - matte burnt orange
RAGA MUFFIN - rich matte terracotta
LARLEE - pearlescent peach
TICKLED PINK - metallic rose gold
HISSY FIT - metallic bronze
BITTY - rich metallic rust
1988 - metallic cranberry
FLEEKY - bright metallic yellow gold
BRITCHES - soft sand
 FRIED - mustard brown
YOSHI - duo chrome purple
RAMMER JAMMER - metallic raspberry
ALABAMA - red toned brown
WISKERS - rich chocolate brown
BUBS - matte espresso brown
SMASHLEE - metallic moss green
LOU - matte black

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

I do like the shade selection and the quality is just as exquisite as the Holy Grail Palette. The eyeshadows are soft, buttery, highly and extremely pigmented as well as being effortless to blend. You can use them wet, but like I said last time, you really don’t need too (just primer is fine). I am just in love with the metallic finishes! I do prefer the Holy Grail Palette overall, but I am just in love with Violet Voss’ formula so I am glad that I picked this up. Violet Voss has also come out with another palette, but it is mostly colours and I prefer the warm browns, rose golds, berries and neutral tones. Although this palette is limited edition, you can however still pick it up (BeautyBay), I just don’t know how much longer it will be available. I know I only own two, but I think I am addicted! They are so pretty to get out and just look at!

Perfume Power! - Soap & Glory™ 'Eau De Soap & Glory'

I bought this because I already had the first Soap & Glory perfume and I really loved the Mist You Madly line scent. The bottle is cuboid shaped and made of opaque black glass. It has a regular perfume spritzer and the cap is clear plastic and T shaped with a pink woollen sash wrapped around the base. On the front of the bottle there is a pink foiled sticker with the Soap & Glory logo. The fragrance notes are:- Bergamot, Cassis, Magnolia, Freesia, Vanilla & Musk This perfume is a strong florally and musky scent. It is quite sweet, but not overpowering. The bottle is also a classic design, so you can re-use as decoration if you peel the sticker off the front. It is the Formula 2 scent, which is what some of Soap & Glory products smell like (The Daily Smooth, Clean Girls, Mist You Madly etc.). I can really smell the bergamot, freesia and musk. It has a sort of masculine smell and does last for a while on your skin. It is a must have if you love the Mist...

Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Lipsticks

I tried these lipsticks a while ago and I did recently de-clutter them all (April). I thought I would still share the swatches with you for reference. I only de-cluttered them because I didn’t use them, not because I didn’t like them. Poet (60) - soft beige pink Seductress (65) - dusty beige rose Amazonian (70) - rich caramel brown Fighter (75) - rich gingerbread brown Self-Starter (130) - muted smoky peach Ground-Breaker (117) - dark orange red Lover (15) - dusty rose Ruler (80) - marsala red Voyager (50) - cool toned wine red Heroine (25) - bright scarlet red Creator (35) - bright violet Believer (40) - dark eggplant purple These matte liquid lipsticks are mean’t to be long lasting and stay on for twelve hours. They should also have intense colour pay-off and be non-drying to the lips. The arrow shaped applicator is mean’t to make it easy and more precise to apply the product to your lips. You can purchase them for £9.99 each from Boots,...

Anastasia Beverly Hills X Jackie Aina Palette

This palette is in collaboration with Jackie Aina, who is a Beauty Influencer on YouTube. It is mean’t to be limited edition, but it has been out almost a year now and it is still for sale. I feel like it didn’t quite get it’s full moment and time to shine as the Carli Bybel (also a Beauty Influencer on YouTube) collaboration palette was released not long after. Up until the pandemic hit, Anastasia Beverly Hills were known for quickly putting out new products with little time left in between new launches. Nevertheless, this palette does look beautiful. The packaging is the usual ABH slim rectangle shape and it is made out of metallic faux leather and has a crocodile scale print. The base of the print is a kind of nude shade and it reflects green, blue, pink, yellow, orange and purple. Almost like a duo-chrome eyeshadow. It has a magnetic closing which you lift up to reveal the inside. The inside has a black base containing the small square eyeshadow pans, the shade names are w...
