Violet Voss Holy Grail Palette

I had heard of this cosmetic brand before, but I never looked into it. I’m not really sure of the origins, but a picture of this palette flashed up on the homepage of BeautyBay and I just clicked it. A few more clicks later and I am now a proud owner of the Violet Voss Holy Grail Palette!

The palette itself has a rectangular shape to it and it is slightly bulky and has a little weight to it. It has a magnetic closing and when you lift the lid it reveals the eyeshadow pans and a mirror. The packaging colour scheme matches the eyeshadow shades, brown and burgundy.

You get twenty 36g warm neutral toned eyeshadows in a variety of finishes.

CRYSTAL - champagne nude shimmer

PLOOF - bronzed rose pink neutral

THANKS A LATTE - matte nude

TRANSITION - matte honey coffee

HASHTAG - rich terracotta

AWESOME SAUCE - copper shimmer

BESTIE - matte mocha cream

TOFFEE - duo-chrome brown with shimmer

CHILL - shimmery chocolate gold

HOW U DOIN - pink toned bronze shimmer

BAT MY EYES - deep brown shimmer

COOL BEANS - pale chocolate shimmer

R U KITTEN ME - matte brown with terracotta

SO JELLY - deep rose pink shimmer

ON FLEEK - chocolate orange with petal pink

BROWNIE POINTS - matte dark coffee

TEDDY BEAR - dark burgundy with brown

GLAMPING - metallic chocolate rouge shimmer

CRANBERRY SPLASH - dark pink shimmer

WINE N DINE - matte dark berry rouge with wine

The eyeshadows should all be highly pigmented and enable smooth blending to create flawless looks.

The shade selection is absolutely gorgeous! The eyeshadows are soft, buttery, highly and extremely pigmented as well as being effortless to blend! I am completely blown away by this palette and it has now overtaken Tarte as my favourite eyeshadow brand! You can use them wet, although you don’t need to as they look so intense like they are already wet. I find just wearing eye primer underneath is all you need. I am now very excited for any future palettes Violet Voss has to offer.

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...

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils in Chaos & Freak

Chaos - bright cobalt blue with light pearl (matte) Freak - light yellow toned emerald green (shimmer) These shades are beautiful and I just love these pencils at the moment. I might have to buy more shades, maybe a purple! The formula is so soft and creamy and the pigmentation is amazing!

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 ...
