Tweet I had a play with my new YSL Ombre Solo eyeshadows and new products in general and this is a quick FOTD (shot in the car, as usual!). I used Chanel Mat Lumiere Foundation, Cashmere Brown eyeshadow, Midnight Black to line and some fawn to blend in around the crease. I used a nude white shade from Etude House under the brows to highlight and I used YSL Blush Variation 19 in Venetian Rose (a mixture of bronze and {Read More}
Tweet Next up is Must Have from the Sue Moxley Famous Palette. Where Festival is ridiculously bright and buttery, the Must Have palette is collection of matte, everyday shades consisting of cream, browns and grey: This one is a ‘useful’ palette but for me, the texture wasn’t as nice as the Festival palette – it was a chalkier texture and with it being matte, just harder to work with. Swatches: *Sorry, very warm toned photo. Anyway I did a FOTD {Read More}
Tweet Does everyone want to be Famous? I wouldn’t want to be. Rich, yes. Famous, no. Sue Moxley’s make up range is called Famous and here are two of her quads: First up is Palette 1 is Festival, a very soft, pigmented, shimmery. The colours are totally crazy! A bright canary yellow, a bright tangerine, a bright grape and a metallic forest green. Is this an odd combo? Well it’s different that’s for sure, just totally bright and in yer {Read More}
Tweet I purchased Kanebo’s KATE new Gradical Eyeshadow Palettes recently. KATE is a pretty good brand in terms of quality although the last few eyeshadow palette offerings were a bit shimmer, a bit sheer. The Gradical palette has 4 gradual shades and a white eye base which is quite common in Japanese eyeshadows palettes. They are thoughtful like that. I have so many of these little palettes I went for shades I don’t normally choose – Gold and Orange: Unfortunately, {Read More}
Tweet There is a reason why I eventually ended up with my first ever Chanel Aqualumiere Gloss. I visited a counter about a week ago where an extremely pretty (and slightly familiar Chanel SA) served me. She had that Angelina-esque-pillowy-lip look about her, and for a few moments I had doubts about my sexuality. Anyway I couldn’t go without asking her what lip gloss she was wearing and she waved it in my face prettily (but gave me the wrong {Read More}
Tweet Pretty pretty pretty. That’s all I can say about this Lavshuca Dramatic Memory Rouge (I think this means its long lasting) lipstick. I only bought the one – I’ve got lipsticks coming out of my ears. It comes in this pretty case – it reminds me of Jill Stuart. Rememeber the days, ladies, when Lavshuca was easily the prettiest and nicest Japanese make up brand out there? Its fallen to the wayside of late. I bought RS-3 – I {Read More}
Tweet I didn’t buy the Lavshuca Dual Eyes palettes when they first came out but bought a few recently in the Adambeauty.com sale – I am SO glad I did. Despite looking quite dull they are highly wearable and gorgeous eyeshadows! This one is the Pink Variation – a frosty pink and a chocolate brown duo. I like these in the week because it requires less thought for work: On the eye: So its not a normal nude, its got {Read More}
Tweet When I went away to London this weekend, I took my glorious Shu Uemura Palette with me. Its truly one of the best palettes I own (and I put a lot of them together myself)…. I am considering buying another large palette – its fab, sturdy yet compact, for all my Shu Uemura blushers. Anyway here is the eye I did for IMATS. My lashes are the result of an extension (review coming up this week). Products used: ME {Read More}
