THE SHADE & SWATCH
Brunette (#1706) - neutral brown/warm brown mixed
 
MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
I’ve not come across an eyebrow pencil like this before. It has two shades of brunette in one pencil. There are only three overall shades to choose from (brunette, blonde & wonderful/grey), which isn’t the best but I was given the most appropriate shade for my hair colour. I’m not sure if everyone received the same shade or whether the information about us on the LF Beauty Box profile was used to match us with a shade. I haven’t actually used a brow pencil since 12th March this year! I just left my brows alone throughout lockdown and then when I went back to work, I just started tinting them and they look great with just a bit of brow gel to keep them in place. I thought I didn’t really have much hair to work with, but I am guessing the hairs were just too light for me to see. Since I have been tinting them, they look much fuller and almost like I have professionally had them done. I don’t know if I will really go back to using a pencil now because it has been so long and it looks too much to me. I would like to get them professionally shaped and micro-bladed, but it can be quite expensive to get done. I will hopefully give this pencil a go when I next wear a full face of make-up. Day-to-day (even pre-pandemic) I only really wear a little concealer (under eyes), pressed powder, a light dusting of bronzer and then highlighter. Pre-pandemic I used to also pencil in my brows, but it just looks silly to me now with the natural/no make-up look. I will most likely be wearing a full face tomorrow as my sort of tradition is that I wear glitter eyes on Christmas Day, so I might try it out then. The pencil seems kind of dry, but it might become creamier after it has been used a little. I haven’t done a full face since the 8th March this year! I have already done green glitter with a red crease and last year I did red glitter with a green crease. Tomorrow I think I am going to do blue glitter with a blue crease, very monochromatic!

Serial Sampler #39

I have another perfume sample to share today. Again, I can’t remember how long I have had this one, but I know I haven’t smelled it before. I always mean’t to test it sooner, but didn’t for reason, so now is the time!   It is Olympéa by Paco Rabanne and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   “ The divine perfume with a fresh oriental signature; it’s sparkling green tangerine top notes reveal a unique salty vanilla accord. Then it’s addictive heart of captivating jasmine and ginger Lilly scents unveils a sensual ambergris and cashmere wood base ” Launched: 2015   Type: Oriental Floral / Feminine Notes Top: Water Jasmine, Green Mandarin and Ginger Flower. Middle: Vanilla and Salt. Base: Cashmere Wood, Ambergris and Sandalwood. I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this fragrance, I assumed it would smell like an ‘old lady’ floral but I was very wrong. It smells quite sensual and it is a perfect example of a deep oriental floral scent. I can really s...

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shi...

HUDA BEAUTY The New Nude Palette

I currently own all four of the big HUDA BEAUTY palettes, and I fell for the colour story of this one as soon as I saw it. The designs for the bigger palettes always look stunning! THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple and made of nude pink cardboard, but it has Huda’s face on the front. Huda’s eyes are closed and it looks like she is wearing a fascinator, which is covering part of her face. The palette has a magnetic closing and you just lift it up to reveal the mirror and square eyeshadow pans. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen eyeshadows with a net weight of 19.7g in Matte (M), Reflective (R), Glitter (G), Pressed Pearl (PP) and Cream Base (CB) finishes. ·         Insane Pigmentation ·         Flatter any skin tone ·         Cruelty-Free   THE SHADES & SWATCHES Stripes Double 18 Pan by SwatchPerfect.co.uk Bare - soft pinky peach ...
