KALEIDOS Charisma Contour Palette in Cool & Light

I already love the KALEIDOS Space Age Highlighters and I have also really been enjoying the Futurism Eyeshadow Palettes, so naturally I also wanted to try their contour palette when it was released. I bought this product after my first direct KALEIDOS order, but before my second order which is why I purchased it on Depop instead, I didn’t just want to buy one product and have to wait ages for it to arrive.

ABOUT THE PRODUCT

You get three powders with a net weight of 8g in a matte finish inside a little rectangular cardboard compact.

· Smooth & buttery texture

·         Blends flawlessly
·         Long lasting
·         Buildable
·         Vegan
·         Cruelty-Free

THE SHADES & SWATCHES

Fill - light peach illuminator with pink undertones

Shade - cool dusted taupe

Chisel - neutral taupe with pink undertones

MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS

I like the packaging and the compact does have a little weight to it. I do also like that there is a little mirror, even though I personally wouldn’t use it. I don’t like that the shades are different sizes, it is a little awkward to get your brush into the Fill and Shade pans to pick-up product. The Fill shade is ok, but I wouldn’t use it what it is actually for, I would just use it as an actual powder. It isn’t my preference of shade for a powder, I prefer transparent pressed powders. I love how smooth Shade and Chisel look once blended out and they do blend out effortlessly. It took some building up as I think I chose the wrong shade, I probably needed the next shade up (Warm and Medium). Shade and Chisel do look almost identical, so it is kind of pointless having the two included. I probably would have just put the Fill and Chisel shades into the compact and the Fill shade would be the same size pan as Chisel. I will continue playing with it, but I probably wouldn’t re-purchase it as I don’t need all three shades. I would consider purchasing the Chisel shade if it was available as a single.

You can purchase the KALEIDOS Charisma Contour Palette in Cool and Light for $18.00 exclusively from KaleidosMakeUp.com.

Glamour Magazine - August 2014

Today I finally got my hands on the Glamour Magazine August 2014 Issue. I had been waiting for two weeks because the gift brand is Clinique and I really wanted the issue with the Clinique Chubby Stick in and they were always the first to go, but I finally have mine! I really wanted a chubby stick, but there were four gifts to choose from overall:- Chubby Stick in Super Strawberry Chubby Stick in Woppin’ Watermelon High Impact Mascara Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion+ I got Woppin’ Watermelon Chubby Stick and it is a nice light pink shade. The formula is very sheer, but very shiny. I can see myself wearing this a lot! You also get a free sample sachet of Garnier Moisture Match in Shine Be Gone on Page 57. In next month’s issue it looks like the free gift brand will be Elemis. I probably won’t buy next month’s issue because the only reason I bought this one was to get a chubby stick. What did you think August’s issue? ♥ ♥ ♥

Perfume Power! - Katie Price 'Stunning'

I received this perfume as a present for my 17 th birthday. The bottle design is very simple and feminine. It is diamond inspired, with a diamond shaped cap and the bottle is a classic Hollywood style shape. There is also a silver coloured plastic band around the neck of the bottle, which displays the perfume name, as well as Katie’s name. The fragrance notes are:- Mandarin, Jasmine, Patchouli & other unknown notes, possibly floral! To me it smells fruity and floral, with a hint of musk. I can smell the mandarin, which I think gives the scent an oriental feel. It is slightly a mature scent, which still smells young and fresh, so it appeals to women of all ages. I couldn’t find a list of the full notes, but if you were to smell it, you may be able to pick certain notes out. It also lasts quite a while on your skin. Next also have a perfume called Diamonds , which is almost identical, if you have good ‘scent detectors’, you will notice that there is a slight d...

Glossybox #21 - February 2016

I always look forward to the themed Glossyboxes and this box just looks lovely. I love the colours and the little love design on the lid (better than last February’s box!). Inside the tissue paper is the same hot pink colour as the base of the box and the tissue confetti is white. Here is what I got in my Valentine’s Day themed Glossybox for February:- Nicka K New York 24H Waterproof Eyeliner in Dark Brown | 0.3g - £3.99 | This is a nice product. I like the colour and it could also be used for your brows because it is so soft and the tip is quite fine. It definitely doesn’t stay on for twenty-four hours. It is slightly water resistant, but not waterproof. It doesn’t compare to the Urban Decay ones. MUA Power Pout Glaze Low Voltage Gloss in Rapture | 3.2ml - £3.50 | This looks like a chubby lipstick at first and when you take the cap off, it reveal the wide, flat lip brush applicator. They could have definitely got away with a slightly smaller applicator. You ...
