Here’s what I wore Friday April 10. Blue and lime green is an underrated colour combo that I should wear more often.

Collective indie haul (late February + March 2026)

Posted on April 13, 2026 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a collective indie make-up haul to share with you today. I made an order from Nomad Cosmetics and one from Monolith. Let’s begin with the items I got from Nomad Cosmetics.

I made the Nomad Cosmetics order because I wanted to pick up some products from the new Cruise collection. I prefer a palette with a mix of shimmers and mattes, but I still decided to get both the Coastal Cruise intense matte color palette and the Aurora Cruise intense shimmer color palette. I also got the Sunrise Cruise Gradient Rose glow highlighter and I wore all three products here.

The Nomad Cosmetics Okavango Safari intense eyeshadow palette was on sale (it still is), and I love a murky green colour story, so I added the palette to my order as well. It’s not my favourite Nomad Cosmetics palette quality wise, but I did think this look I created with it turned out pretty.

Let’s move on to the palettes I purchased from Monolith. The Blend Bunny Cosmetics Diabla palette is the first Blend Bunny Cosmetics palette that I’ve been interested in in quite a while. I think this colour story is very beautiful and inspiring.

I was very drawn to the Bellabeautébar Dead Roses 2 palette from the moment I first saw it. There’s just something about this colour story that is very appealing to me. I created this look with it, and I’m excited to play with it again.

The last three palettes were on sale. The Bellabeautébar Recently Deinfluenced palette is not a new palette by any means, but I’ve always been intrigued by the colour story. I created one of the most beautiful red eyes looks I’ve ever worn with this palette, so I’m very happy to have finally added it to my collection.

The Unearthly Cosmetics Sorcerous Smoke palette has been on my wishlist forever, so when I found it in stock and on sale, I had to get it. I wore it on my eyes here.

Last, but not least, I added the Fantasy Cosmetica Artificer palette to my collection as well. Even though neutral colour stories are not my go-to, I think this is an interesting neutral colour story, and the quality is great as always. I created this look with it.

Eclipse

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I used the eyeshadow palette, the Super Shock highlighter, and one of the Lippie kits from the Colourpop x The Twilight Saga Eclipse collection, and all products performed very well and looked really good.

Cosmetics Soft Glam satin foundation (shade: 13 Fair Neutral), concealers – Rare Beauty Positive Light under eye brightener (shade: Light) + e.l.f.

Different layers and fabrics

Here’s what I wore Wednesday April 8. Even though this is a muted all navy and grey look, I actually think it turned out really fun. Different layers and fabrics make a more monochromatic outfit interesting.

Frostbite

Becoming more challenging

Posted on April 11, 2026 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s what I wore Tuesday April 7. It’s becoming more challenging to come up with new outfits towards then end of this pregnancy, but I hadn’t worn this mint green halter top this time around, so it became the base of the look.

Matas haul (February 2026)

Posted on April 10, 2026 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a Matas haul to share with you today. It includes a couple of body mists, and a bunch of limited edition Essence products and a few other bits.

I picked up these two body mists on sale. It’s the Fenty Skin Vanilla Flowers body mist (75 ml) and the Sundae Body Soft Serve body mist (90 ml). I wasn’t sure about the Fenty Skin one, when I just smelled the bottle before I sprayed it, but I was very pleasantly surprised when I sprayed it and wore it. It’s reminiscent of the PHLUR Vanilla Skin, which was in my 5 favourites post last month. The Sundae Body one is nice too. It reminds me a bit of Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 71, which I really like as well.

I picked up some back-ups and a few new things from e.l.f. Cosmetics. I got a back-up of my favourite powder, the Halo Glow setting powder in Light, and I also got the new shade Light Pink.

I also got a back-up of the e.l.f. Cosmetics Brow Lift Clear, which is my favourite brow gel, and then I bought the e.l.f. Cosmetics Squeeze Me More lip balm duo set in Mint & Chocolate. I really like this lip balm formula, and these scents sound delicious.

Let’s move on to the Essence stuff. I purchased a few products from a handful of different limited edition collection. From the Get the Glaze! collection I got the makeup sponge & case in 01 Bake It & Glaze It and the baked highlighter in 01 Donut worry, be glazy!.

From the Essence Nuts About You collection, which was their 2025 holiday collection, I picked up the blushlighter in 01 Ballerina Glow! and the lip beautifier in 01 What’s Crackin’?. I bought these products mostly for the cute and fun packaging.

I got these three products from the Essence Disney Alice in Wonderland collection; the hand cream in 01 Bloom Where You Are Planted, the fluffy mousse matte blush in 02 So Paw-Dorable, and the Jelly Jewels glitter eyeshadow topper in 01 Be Adventurous.

Lastly, I got this little random selection of things. I got the Essence Crystal Crush dewy highlighter cream in 01 Diamond Dew, the Essence the Jeans Club eye & face bouncy luminzer in 01 So Dazzling Denim, and a back-up of the Rimmel Nail Care 7 in 1 multi benefit base & top coat, which is my go-to nail polish top coat.

Lime green with pink shimmer

Posted on April 9, 2026 by Mucha-Lucha

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

Posted on April 8, 2026 by Mucha-Lucha

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.
