LOOKFANTASTIC Advent Calendar 2020 | Unboxing - Day 1

This is the first day of my LookFantastic Beauty Advent Calendar for Christmas 2020 unboxing. I was very surprised that this was the first product, we are starting strong!
It is the Natasha Denona Blush Glow Duo.
 
ABOUT
This is the 4g mini size worth £16.00. It contains a 2g All Over Glow Face & Body Shimmer Powder and a 2g Blush Powder.
 
·        Cruelty-Free
THE SHADES & SWATCHES
#01 Light - warm beige champagne
Golden Coral - warm pink with a champagne sheen
 
MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
The powders are quite sheer and natural. They both give you a nice natural glow. The highlighter is quite subtle, but it doesn’t leave a cast and it gives you a sort of glass like look effect. The blush gives you a delicate pink flush with a hint of shine. I believe the highlighter is available in a full sized compact and the blush is also available in a full sized duo compact with a different highlighter. I’m personally not into shimmery blushes and I prefer my highlighters to be a bit more intense. I would recommend this duo if you are just starting out in make-up or if you are more into a natural look.
 
You can purchase the Natasha Denona Blush Glow Duo for £16.00 ($19.00) from NatashaDenona.com.

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
