Tweet Gosh – I remember the days when the pound was so strong against the dollar that I could roll on to adambeauty and buy an eyeshadow in every shade. Those days are gone, for sure. Nevertheless, when I saw Kanebo Kate’s newest gel eyeshadow offering I couldn’t resist picking up 4 shades. I love cream and gel eyeshadows! Kate’s previous offering of gel eyeshadows were more of a dense mousse texture and came in a pot. They were EXCELLENT {Read More}
Tweet I reported on Guerlain’s Terracotta collection for 2011, aptly named Inca. It is a very pretty, very sexy collection indeed! I have 2 of the products here to look at! First up is the Terracotta Gloss in 07 Salsa: The terracotta lip gloss looks extremely bold and bright in the tube but it is very much a sheer and shiny finish lip product. Do not be afraid of the brightness!
Tweet My gorgeous friend from Suka & Spice sent me a parcel of goodies, and inside included these three Wet ‘n’ Wild palettes I have been wanting for a while. I simply adore the Wet ‘n’ Wild color* icon palette series. They are so cheap but highly pigmented. *No ‘u’ even though I am British since the actual name of the palettes is spelt without it. The color icon eyeshadow collections have a impressive 8 colours inside, plus they are {Read More}
Tweet Esprique Precious, a fabulous Japanese make up brand was renamed Esprique a while back and I didn’t really buy anything from the range until now. I was suckered in by the elegant look of this collection and purchased one eyeshadow palette, in A4 and two of the melty cheek blush sticks – these are uncommon in Japanese make up ranges. I got two melty fix cheek blushers in BE300 which is a beige I thought I could use as {Read More}
Tweet Canmake is a drugstore/high street (whatever you want to call it) level cosmetic brand from Japan. Think Collection 2000. But much, much better and more innovative for the price! I purchased this eyeshadow base, because I am a sucker for primers of any kind. They say: A creamy eyeshadow base enhances colour payoff and prevents unsightly creases for eye makeup that stays vibrant and fresh even well into the night. Moist formula quickly turns to powder after blending on {Read More}
Tweet I have a beauty lust list of some items I really want but are expensive and I can’t justify buying. Then when I achieve something new I got to the hit list to give myself a treat. This was the case when I bought not 1, but 2 purple/lavender palettes I have wanted for a long, long time. More than I wanted this full set! These two palettes were Lunasol Sheer Contrast Eyes in Lavender Coral and Ocean Scene {Read More}
Tweet Superdrug is becoming quite a fun and funky place to buy cheap beauty brands and one of the ones I noticed a while ago was BeautyUK. I was sent a few items to try and one that I really liked for the bargain price of £3.99 was the baked eyeshadow trio. It comes in 6 shades inspired by nature – green is called Meadow! These eyeshadows can be used wet or dry – wet for more intensity. I find {Read More}
Tweet To be fair to Jill Stuart, they sure know how to package make up. This purchase is part of their Dreamy Garden Collection – 102 Amazonite Dazzle to be exact. But have a look at the packaging…so lovely: Also part of the Dreamy Garden Collection are these lipglosses! I nearly missed this item in my massive haul because the seller had stuck it into a box of hair dye! Post is taking such a long time from Asia all {Read More}
