Tweet Urban Decay’s Naked ‘franchise’ (ok, range), is getting bigger and bigger, and it’s not hard to see why it’s so successful; a collection of very wearable colours together in one place – what’s not to love? Here is my first Naked purchase and the second palette. Obviously good things come in threes, so I purchased their new smaller ‘basics’ palette from Debenhams when there was 10% off all cosmetics (Debehams does 10% off quite frequently for those interested). Here {Read More}
Tweet For as long as I can remember, I have always loved cream eyeshadows. Whilst other protested, ‘But they crease!’, I would say, ‘It’s totally worthhh itttt!”. Japanese cream or jelly eyeshadows, in my experience are the best at being none crease, but, as pretty and sparkly as they are, they lack pigment. Shiseido’s Hydro Power is probably one of the first creamy eyeshadows I thought had decent pigment and iron proof wear time. Enter Estee Lauder’s new offering, the {Read More}
Tweet I have owned these two Chanel Illusion D’Ombre Luminous Eyeshadows for a while but have only just got a chance to review them! They say: This intensely shimmering long-wear eyeshadow offers true versatility. An innovative gel texture that is both soft and cushiony allows it to be worn as eyeshadow or eyeliner. Includes a specially designed shadow/liner brush, developed specifically for this unique formula. You’re probably already familiar with this product which has been raved about by so many {Read More}
Tweet I am crazy for neutral toned eyeshadow palettes at the moment; I love having all the colours I need in one place in easy to wear tones. The brand recently released 3 quad palettes. The palette comes in 3 colourfast, Brown Gold for blue eyes, Blue/Grey for brown eyes and Plum for green eyes. I decided to go for Plum, just because the colours appealed to me the most and it’s different to other palettes I have (I {Read More}
Tweet On counters from the 28th December are these Estee Lauder Pure Colour Stay On Shadow Paints. As a cream eyeshadow fan I am excited! Here is a preliminary look at the colours: Extreme Emerald and Bold Cobalt (not pictured) are Limited Edition. These eyeshadows can be used to create a soft wash of watercolour or can be built up to create a stronger look that lasts all day. Their Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara (£22) and Double Wear {Read More}
Tweet I’ll keep this review short and quite sweet, okay? Palgantong (sounds elegant eh) is a brand from Korea (I think?!) and is one of the very first brands I noticed before there was an explosion in the popularity of Korean make up brands generally. Their best selling classic product is the Theatrical Loose Powder which I tried a few times and think is OK. A few months ago I spotted these palettes on Adambeauty and liked the idea of {Read More}
Tweet Roll up, roll up – time is of the essence so here is my first speed review post with a mixture of bits and pieces I’ve tried out over the last few months but just don’t have the time (or the words?) to do a full review on! First up – Visee’s Limited Edition Mineral Cheeks Baby Finish in Orange OR-7 Visee is one of those Japanese brands that always looks good and is very tempting! But the products {Read More}
Tweet KATE (a Kanebo brand) is one of the old schooler’s of Japanese drugstore cosmetics. I used to place the brand head to head with Lavshuca and there was a phase when both of the brands would release killer ranges every season but Lavshuca has been majorly disappointing of late, as has KATE. Nevertheless I picked up 3 products from their newest Spring 2012 releases. I got their dual ended eyeliner pencil which has a black liquid liner on one {Read More}
