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.

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
