Urban Decay Ammo 2 Palette

This palette has been around for years and I didn’t really have any interest in it, until they re-vamped and re-launched it! The newest version has already been around for a few years and I still told myself NO, but this year I finally caved in and bought it.
The design of this palette is very small and compact, but it does have some weight to it. It is made of a hard cardboard type material and it is a slightly gunmetal silver shade with purple detailing. It has a magnetic closure and when you open it, a small mirror is revealed. Inside the palette there are ten mini eyeshadows and a small eyeshadow brush. Separate to the palette, but included in the set is a mini primer potion.
The ten mini eyeshadows are 0.8g and are of the amazing quality Urban Decay is renowned for. They are velvety soft, pigmented and blend really well. There is also a good shade selection in this palette and the brighter shades are not too out there, so the selection is perfect for the safe neutral lover like me.
Smog - deep copper w/bronze shimmer
Mildew - mossy green shimmer w/golden undertones
Oil Slick - deep matte black w/silver glitter
Last Call - metallic plum purple
Chopper - copper shimmer w/silver glitter
Maui Wowie - metallic golden beige w/silver glitter
Shattered - turquoise shimmer w/gold shift
Polyester Bride - snow white shimmer w/silver glitter
Grifter - sheer lavender shimmer w/silver glitter
Sin - champagne shimmer

The brush you get is a mini Good Karma Eyeshadow Brush, which is very flat and dense and enables you to pack eyeshadow onto your lids. I have several sizes of this brush from other UD palettes and I love them! You get a mini travel size (3.7ml) of Primer Potion in the original shade. This is a great primer and the packaging is lovely.

I really like this palette. It has the perfect balance of shades for me and I like that they are not full sized. The brush is great, but I do prefer a fluffier brush to apply eyeshadow on my lids. I love the primer! Overall a good buy and a way to try more UD eyeshadow shades.

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...

Boots Fragrance Sampler Gift Set for Her 2015

I decided to treat myself to this little fragrance set. As you know, I am a perfume addict and I’m quite addicted to collecting perfume samples too! It’s this year’s Boots Fragrance Sampler set for Her. I saw last year’s advertised but I always thought it was a little expensive for what you get. The set basically contains eight samples of Boots best-selling female fragrances by other brands. The set comes in a small, thin cardboard box and each sample is set inside a plastic insert. You also get a small fragrance guide and the voucher, which is what you’ll need to get your full size bottle of your favourite sample. The eight samples in this year’s set are:- HUGO BOSS - Boss Ma Vie This is a 2ml sample vile in pipette form and can be exchanged for a 30ml bottle of the eau de parfum. “Inspired by the independent spirit of a woman, exuding a glow of femininity and confidence. Created around the cactus blossom, aiming to reinvent and modernize floral green notes ...
