Oden's Eye Norn’s Mesmerizer Highlighters

When I saw that Oden’s Eye posted on their Instagram page about their new Norn’s Series Collection, I knew I would be making my second purchase of their products. The collection as a whole includes four eyeshadow palettes and three highlighters. The palettes all looked beautiful, but I knew I wouldn’t get much use out of them and I didn’t just want to buy them to swatch and post about and then not use again. I did want to buy all three highlighters, but I settled on the two that I would get most use out of. The one I didn’t choose is a stunning blue and silver shade and I just knew I wouldn’t wear it as much as the other two. I already own a few other blue highlighters and I hardly ever wear them. I believe only the three highlighters are limited edition and the eyeshadow palettes are all permanent.

ABOUT THE PRODUCT

In Norse mythology, three sisters (Norn’s) weave and guard the web of fate. They also attend the spring of life that supports the World Tree. The highlighters reflect the Norn treasures; the Web of Fate, the Spring of Life and the Veil of Future. The three shades available are called; Web Of Destiny, Spring Of Life and Veil Of Future.

You get 5g of powder inside cute little compacts (contain small mirrors).

THE SHADES & SWATCHES

Web Of Destiny - pink & white powder with a pink sheen

Veil Of Future - purple, gold & white powder with a golden sheen

*I APOLOGISE FOR THE BAD SWATCHES, IT WAS HARD TO CAPTURE THE REAL BEAUTY OF THEM!*

MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS

The packaging and overall theme is gorgeous and very on brand. I also love the pressed design of the powders; each one is different and unique. They don’t appear to really have a base colour, which is a little disappointing. They mostly look glittery and more like topper shades. The formula is different to the highlighters in the Solmåne and Alva II Palettes. I actually prefer the palettes formula, but these singles are still pretty on (if you like glitter). My favourite out of the two I have is Veil Of Future. It would look nice as a topper over the highlighter Gnome from the Alva II Palette. Web Of Destiny would go great over Sol from the Solmåne Palette. I think Web Of Destiny is a dupe for the Kaleidos Space Age Highlighter in Comet Catcher; they both look near enough the same on my skin tone. I would recommend them if you are interested in glitter highlighters. I am glad I didn’t get the third shade Spring Of Life, as I am not overly impressed by the formula of these single highlighters. I will keep using them as they are just visually stunning overall.

If you are interested in these highlighters, I would be quick and order them before they sell out. They are limited edition and I am not sure if they will ever be brought back! Also, don’t forget to also check out the Solmåne and Alva II Highlighter Palettes.

Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte Darling Easy Eye Palette

I have another Charlotte Tilbury palette post for you today; I have been on a roll with them! You can definitely tell I am a fan of her eyeshadow formula. There are loads of other CT products I would love to try, but I am slowing down the purchases for now as I do have a confession to make at the end of this post! THE PACKAGING The packaging is made of shiny maroon plastic and it has a short, thin and rectangular shape. It has a metallic gold starburst design across the front. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift up to reveal the rectangular eyeshadow pans arranged in threes across a mirrored gold base. The group names are printed on the back of the palette. The shades don’t really have names, but there is a removable plastic insert included which labels the eyeshadows as 1 Prime, 2 Enhance or 3 Smoke. There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 0.9g eyeshadows in Matte (M) and Metallic (ME) finishes. · ...

Lauren Luke Set of 8 Essential Brushes

I have had this brush set for close to two years now and I can’t believe that it has taken me so long to review it. This brush set is by Lauren Luke and she wanted to create brushes that she would use herself and be well made, but not too expensive. When I bought my set the shipping cost was £1.99 (UK), but it may have changed. Large Powder Brush – £6.50 This brush is supposed to be brilliant for applying foundation, bronzer, blush and highlighter. The bristles are 185mm in length and made of goat hair. This is one of my favourite brushes from the set and it is jam packed with bristles, but it is so soft! It is the perfect size too, because the head is relatively large but the shorter handle makes it sit well. It works well for any powder product and for sweeping away fall out from eyeshadows. The bristles enable you to pick up quite a bit of product, so if you are using colour don’t be heavy handed. I do not recommend using it for cream based products as it can...

Tarte Tartelette Tease Palette

I saw this advertised last year and I have been interested in the full sized Tartelette palettes before, but couldn’t really justify buying one (plus I couldn’t find anywhere in the UK that sold them). I thought getting this little ‘tease’ would introduce me to the brand, plus the shades look very appealing. This palette is described as being the “pocket-perfect version” of the original Tartelette palette. I thought it would be slightly bigger, but it is actually pocket sized. It is a similar size to the Urban Decay Naked Basics Palettes, but it is shorter in length and slightly wider. It’s overall layout is landscape with a length of 9.7cm and width of 5.8cm. It is made of cardboard and has a pink, purple and gold theme. The lid of the palette is magnetised and you lift it up to reveal the eyeshadows. It also has a small mirror on the reverse side of the lid and the eyeshadow pans are laid out in two rows of three shades. The pans are rectangular in shape and the shades n...
