KALEIDOS Space Age Highlighters

A few posts ago I mentioned that I purchased a Kaleidos Space Age Highlighter from Depop and I said I really wanted the whole collection (8 highlighters) and was considering purchasing the whole bundle. The bundle was and is still out of stock, so I caved in and went for the second best option. I ended up purchasing The Six Highlighter Bundle, where you choose six of the shades and you get their Precision Highlighter Brush, all for $76.00 (£60.70). With this option I would only be missing out on one shade. My order was shipped from China and took 10 days to get to me. The shipping was FREE as I spent over $70.00 and I wasn’t charged any customs fees.
Inside the main package is the bright bundle box, it looks like a present/gift. When you open this up, the highlighters and brush are inside the metallic padded envelope.
I already own the shade Ray Rider (N03) (champagne sheen with a peach hint). Click HERE to read my first impressions of it and see a swatch. Please forgive the not so good quality swatches. It was hard for me to pick up the stunning beams on camera. Also, a lot of the shades appear to be blue based.
Comet Catcher (N01)
- Fluorescent fuchsia with a peach hint
“Shower your senses with this cosmic burst of berry stardust”
Diamond Dasher (N04)
- Cobalt, gold and fuchsia shimmers with a diamond glint
“Scatter the stars and blend e milky way with just a touch of this crushed crystal radiance”
Mars Melter (G04)
- Peachy caramel with a magenta red glow
“Melt through this Martian mousse and treat yourself to a warm scoop of creamy crimson and peach”
Moon Cruiser (G05)
- Rich neon lilac with a cobalt shift
“Take a joyride through unseen lunar landscapes on this blue and violet hotrod”
Solar Sailor (G03)
- Satin gold
“Cast away and drift through a sea of stars and with this smooth sailing shimmer”
Star Surfer (N02)
- Rosy champagne with silver undertones
“Ride a wave of creamy starlight every time you dip into this heavenly shimmer”
The only shade I am missing now is Sky Walker (G01) (aqua blue with ultraviolet undertones) as it was out of stock, which means I was unable to choose at as one of my six shades. I may not have chosen it as part of my six anyway, as I do have other blue/violet highlighters that look very similar. If it comes back in stock I will be torn over whether to buy it or not, as I do not need it but it is the only shade missing. The collector in me really wants to finish my Space Age Highlighter collection! There also used to be a shade called Laser Glazer (G02) (bright green with rose gold shift), but it isn’t listed on the website anywhere so I am guessing they discontinued it. By the look of the swatches online, it might have been too dark for my skin tone anyway. The single highlighters retail for $14.00 each and the brush for $8.00. Buying the six shade bundle saves you $16.00. My favourite of the ones I have is Diamond Dasher. These are some of the best highlighters I have ever used and it is the first formula I have tried that you cannot really see the highlighter on your face until your cheekbones hit the light at the right angle. They are truly beautiful and I want more! Maybe they should bring out a purple/lilac toned highlighter in a little purple tin next?

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...

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.

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 ...
