Jouer Skinny Dip Palette

I first saw this palette when Jouer released their Skinny Dip make-up collection and I nearly bought it, but I changed my mind because I already have a million palettes. As you can see, I have changed my mind again and I am very glad that I did.
The packaging is quite compact. It is made out of reflective foil gold cardboard and the typography is simple. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift to reveal a small rectangular mirror on one side and then the six eyeshadow pans on the other. The shade names are written underneath each pan.

You get six ultra-foil shimmer eyeshadows in blinding shades with a net weight of 7.5g. The sixth shade is actually described as more of a glitter shade.
STAR LIGHT - platinum
BIKINI - champagne pink
SKINNY DIP - champagne gold
TAN LINES - antique bronze
MAGIC HOUR - warm taupe
MIDNIGHT SWIM - cocoa bronze

The eyeshadows should be highly pigmented, have an intense shimmery and metallic finish, be long wearing and crease-resistant. They should also layer together perfectly or look great for just an accent colour. The palette is also paraben free, sulphate free, phthalate free and dermatologist tested.

These eyeshadows are amazing! They are extremely pigmented and foiled. They are also really soft, buttery and the consistency is not thin so they last for ages on your eyes. I always recommend using eye primer and I would recommend that you do your base make-up after applying these as there are a lot of fall out glitters with these shades. You can apply them wet, you don’t need to but it might help with the fall out. I find that using a stiff synthetic brush applies them better. I tried using a regular eyeshadow brush and the bristles were just too soft to pick up the pigment. I used the Sigma Short Shader - E20 brush to apply the Star Light shade to my inner corners and it looked absolutely and incredibly stunning! Star Light is definitely my favourite shade! I can’t stress enough how much I love and recommend this palette. I wouldn’t say it is for everyday casual use, but it sure is a treat to wear for special occasions. This palette is out of this world!

Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Woman'

I decided to buy this perfume as it was on my test list on Fragrantica and I saw it for a decent price. I have been struggling to find places to buy perfume samples lately, so I took a gamble and bought the smallest bottle size I could. I got the 30ml bottle in the eau de parfum. The bottle is made of glass and kind of an hourglass shape, just like some of Christina’s other perfumes. It has a yellow gold flower design on the thinnest part of the bottle and Christina’s name is printed in hot pink and the perfume name printed in yellow gold. It also has yellow gold banding around the neck for the cap to sit on. The cap is clear plastic and kind of diamond shaped. It has a slight yellow gold spritzer to dispense the scent. On the outer cardboard box it had this description; “A sensual combination of golden amber and white flowers - radiating femininity the way a woman does”. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Litchi & Pear Middle Notes: Magnol...

LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #7 - November 2020

Last month’s box was the Retreat Edition and this month we have the Firecracker Edition with a berry and orange themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether!
