EOTD #5 - Weekend Wonderer

I am wearing the exact same make-up as I wore yesterday, and I quite like it so I thought I would share it with you. I used the Urban Decay Naked Palette.

Eyes:-

For priming on the lid and lower lash line I used Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin. I used the Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sidecar on my lid, Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Toasted in my crease and then Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Hustle on my outer corners. I used NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk to highlight my inner corners and then on the lower lashline I used Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Toasted on the inner part and Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Hustle on the outer part and blended them together. I then lined my upper lashline with Rimmel Special Eyes Precision Eye Liner Pencil in 161 Black Magic and used this to line a third of my waterline. Lastly I applied three coats of my Maybelline The Colossal Volum’ Express Cat Eyes Mascara in Black to my upper lashes and one coat to my lower lashes.

Lips:-

For my lips I used some Carmex Moisturising Lip Balm in Cherry and Sleek Pout Polish in Monte Carlo.

Face:-

I used Rimmel Fix & Perfect Pro Primer in 002 to prime my face and then I used my Collection 2000 Colour Match Foundation in 1 Ivory all over my face and then I used my Rimmel Match Perfection Concealer in 010 Ivory to conceal under my eyes and any blemishes I had. I then applied my Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in 001 Transparent all over my face to set the face make-up. Lastly I used my Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil in 002 Hazel on my eyebrows and then set it with 2true Instant Colour Mascara in 1 Clear as my brow gel.

Glossybox #25 - February 2019

This is my third Glossybox since I re-subscribed last year. It is also the Valentine’s Day themed box. I would say that so far, this box seems to be the one most tailored to my usual interests. I received seven products in this box, technically six because two go hand in hand. HUDA BEAUTY Lip Contour in Venus This lip pencil formula is supposed to be waterproof and transfer-free. It should glide on effortlessly and give your lips an intense shot of colour. You can use it to contour or colour your lips or pair it with a lipstick. Venus is a warm beige nude shade. It glides onto your lips very easy, but it feels a little tacky when you fill your whole lips in with it. I’m not sure how often I would use this seeing as though I have never used lip liner. I prefer liquid lipsticks and I don’t feel the need to line my lips before applying it. | 1.20g - £16.00 | NAILS INC Nail Varnish in Status Ready This nail polish should be long lasting and super glossy. It is a deep che

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Jawbreaker Palette

I bought this palette back when it first launched (summer 2019) and I was interested in it so I could experiment more with bright colours. The colour selection definitely doesn’t disappoint and I was expecting it to be the same quality as the Blood Sugar Palette, if not slightly better! The packaging is quite a large rectangular shape and made out of metallic pink cardboard with colourful dots/dashes all over representing a jawbreaker pattern. The name of the palette is in a slightly raised font. It has a magnetic closing which you lift to reveal the twenty-four eyeshadow pans arranged on a white background. The other side is the same pattern as the front cover with a mirror. You can purchase it for £54.00 ($58.00) from JeffreeStarCosmetics.com and BeautyBay.com. You get twenty-four 1.50g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Shimmer (S) and Metallic (ME) finishes.

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 Shimmer
