Lime green with pink shimmer

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. The shimmer shadow I’m wearing all over my eyelids (lime green with pink shimmer) is my favourite shade from the Nomad Cosmetics Monteverde Cloud Forest intense color palette. I don’t think I have another shade like that in my eyeshadow collection.

Mother-daughter day

Here’s what I wore Friday March 27. I gave my daughter a day off from kindergarten, and we had a really lovely mother-daughter day. It was nice to do something together just the two of us before the baby arrives.

Here’s what I wore Wednesday March 25. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that I could fit this floral shirt over my baby bump, and I really like how this whole look turned out.

Lyko haul (February 2026)

I have a Lyko haul to share with you today. It’s mostly new Catrice stuff and a few other bits.

For face/base I picked up the Catrice Lazy Day hydro serum stick and Catrice Glass Like pearl primer in 010 Pearlfection. I haven’t tried the serum stick yet, but so far I like the pearl primer.

Catrice came out with two new blush formulas; the Soft Blur powder blushes and the Velvet Pudding blurring blushes. I got the Soft Blur powder blush in 030 Cinnamon Sugar, and it’s super pretty. The Velvet Pudding blurring blush is in the shade 010 Raspberry Fudge, but I haven’t tried it yet.

The Catrice More Than Glow liquid highlighter in 010 Pearl Glaze is a very pretty liquid highlighter, and I liked the Catrice Aura Glam nail polish in 020 Solar Seduction as well. I haven’t worn the Catrice Drunk’n Diamonds jelly topper in 020 Blossom Lights yet, but I love the Catrice Drunk’n Diamonds eyeshadow sticks, so I’m excited to try the jelly topper version .

These are the Catrice Prismatic Shift eyeshadows in 010 Pink Horizon and 030 Midnight Wave. I really like when affordable make-up brands do shifty/multichrome eyeshadows, despite the fact that they’re not quite as good as indie ones.

For lips, I picked up the Catrice Blur-Real matte lipstick in 050 Airy Crush and the Catrice Colour Glaze lip tint in 050 Mocha Memory.

The last products I got from Catrice are the Jewel Glide Effect eye pencils in 030 Midnight Sapphire and 050 Ruby Crystal, and so far I really like these.

I also got another shade of the NYX Epic Inky Stix cream gel eyeliners, and it’s in the shade 15 Off-Grid Grey. I really like this eyeliner formula as well.

Lastly, I bought the Gleeze Bounce & Blend trio of sponges. The Real Techniques Miracle Complexion sponge is still my favourite, but it’s fun to try new sponges every now and then.

Lots of options

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. The tunic might not be my usual style, but it works well with a baby bump and the colours of it create lots of options for fun, matching make-up looks.

More simple and soft

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. It’s one of the more simple and soft make-up looks I’ve done in a long time, but I had a little less time to do my make-up that morning, and then a simple and soft make-up look is quicker and easier to do.

(Base: primer – e.l.f. Cosmetics Liquid Poreless Putty primer, foundation – Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blur + Smooth skin tint stick (shade: 2), concealers – e.l.f.

Mostly about comfort

Here’s what I wore Monday March 23. My baby bump is getting pretty big, so it’s mostly about comfort when getting dressed these days.

Monolith haul (February 2026)

I have a Monolith haul to share with you today. I bought some eyeshadow palettes, some cheek products, and a couple of lipsticks.

I love this palette format from Gourmande Girls, and the Bleeding Hearts palette, which was their Valentine’s Day release this year, is so beautiful. I actually wore it on Valentine’s Day, when my sister in law got married.

Dede Signature also released a palette around Valentine’s Day, and it’s called the Sweethearts & Secrets palette. It has a really fun and unique colour story.

Wicked Widow Beauty doesn’t release new stuff that often, but when they do, I’m often intrigued. This is the Rocky Horror Show eyeshadow palette and highlight palette. I created this look with the eyeshadow palette, and I think it turned out so pretty.

This is my favourite colour story that Singe Beauty has released in a palette so far. It’s the Succulent Dew palette, and I love the succulents on the packaging as well.

I also got two of the the new shades of the Singe Beauty Evocative Silk blushes. I got Likeable Litchi and Fearless Fig. I love this blush formula, and these shades are so stunning.

Lastly, I picked up two lipsticks. I got the Kaleidos Glassload lip refill in Geek Out and lip capsule in Sugar Mode. I also got the Unearthly Cosmetics Menacing Metals lipstick in Frostbite, which had been on my wishlist ever since it launched and sold out.
