Sleek MakeUP Original i-Divine Palette Review + Swatches
By Unknown 12/06/2013 01:23:00 pm eyes, reviews
Hello everyone, so this is another review about Sleek Makeup. I've had several more that I'm dying to share with you, but today let's focus on the Sleek i-Divine palette in Original (which leads me to believe that it's the first one from their famous palettes).
Apart from the matte black shade that makes its appearance in most i-Divines, all other shades are shimmery and cover quite a wide range of colors (mostly jewel tones). All shades a pigmented, smooth but can create some fallout. Check the swatches below, all are without primer.
You can purchase directly from their WEBSITE for $9.99, permanent collection.

BH Cosmetics Holiday 2013 Sale
By Unknown 12/04/2013 08:47:00 pm others
Still sad you couldn't make the most of their Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers? Here's a little lovely Christmas sales from BH Cosmetics. I don't have a date yet of when the sale ends, so grab your desired items quickly!
I am eyeing their 10pcs Eco Brush Set ($12.95 instead of $11.95, I bet it's some typing mistake in the brochure), Take Me To Brazil Palette and Floral Blush Duo in Rose (still regularly priced at $4.95 apiece). What's your wishlist?
(Anyone notices that Cambria looks so much like Leesha from Xsparkage???)

Nivea Pure & Natural Camomile & Calendula Lipbalm Review
By Unknown 12/04/2013 01:27:00 pm lips, reviews
I recently (almost) ran out of lip balm so I decided to get this NIVEA Pure & Natural Camomile & Calendula one instead of my stable Maybelline Baby Lips and the Nivea original blue-tubed Essential Care. Let's take a look!
I chose this instead because of the lovely packaging (don't you agree), and changes are sometimes good. However, to be honest, this time, it isn't. The product feels stiff and dry, hence I feel the need to rub it on my lips more than once to get some moisture, and it's not that moisturizing (I have to reapply almost every half hour). It has a pretty strong herbal scent, which I think is the mixture of Camomile and Calendula that lingers on. Despite having a light green color, it appear completely transparent on the lips and doesn't give quite a glossy look as normal lip balms do.

By Unknown 12/03/2013 01:33:00 pm lips, reviewsHello everyone, today is my very first Bourjois post. I very much adore the brand as it has a rich history and their products are generally adorable (especially the Little Round Pot Blushes).
Let's focus on today's post - the Effet 3D Les Nudes Lip Gloss in Fleur d'Oranger Poétic (number 36 - or should I say: numéro trente-six - LOL!). It's an ultra glossy and sparkly pale orange with fine gold shimmer and is very comfortable to wear aka not sticky at all. I absolutely adore this little product.

So,
I was away for almost 2 months (my last post was in the beginning of
October, then I hopped in for a post about Illamasqua Christmas
collection earlier this month) due to being extremely busy at work and
some other issues. Meanwhile I did some shopping and discovered quite a
lot of beautiful products that I'm going to write a review on very soon.

Makeup Academy MUA - Glamour Nights Eyeshadow Palette Review + Swatches
By Unknown 10/08/2013 09:44:00 am eyes, reviews
Today it's all about darkness, let me introduce you to the MUA palette in Glamour Nights. This palette consists of shades that transform you from day to night: soft and neutral shades for a decent day look (gold, brown, white, champagne) and deep dark shades for the darings. Let's see how this performs.
This palette has 4 mattes: the off-white, gray, black and purple; and the rest vary from velvety (the navy blue), shimmery, metallic (silver) to sparkly (the brown).
I was in shock at how buttery soft and pigmented the navy blue, silver, sparkly brown and magenta red shades are! The rest are decently pigmented except for the top 2 shades (off-white and deep purple). All in all it's a good palette to create a variety of looks and worth checking out.
