Here’s what I wore Wednesday December 2. This green skirt was the perfect match to my new dinosaur Christmas jumper. Aren’t those dinosaurs with Santa hats cute!?

The only holiday make-up collections I usually buy are MAC and Jeffree Star, but this year there are so many cute holiday palettes and lip sets, so I decided to get some products from BH Cosmetics, Fenty Beauty, and Too Faced.
Let’s start with BH Cosmetics. I’ve never tried any products from this brand, but these are some of the most festive holiday palettes I’ve ever seen, so I had to have them. I’ve already worn both palettes, and so far I love them. The quality is great for the affordable price and the colour stories are so inspiring; especially the colour story of the Naughty palette. I can’t wait to create many more looks with these palettes.
I love Fenty Beauty as a brand, and I couldn’t resist a few of this year’s holiday sets. The first set that I’ve purchased is the Full Snap – Gift Duo which contains a limited edition Snap Shadows palette in Holo-Daze and a mini Full Frontal mascara. I haven’t tried the mascara before, so I’m excited to do so, and I love the Snap Shadow palettes, and the shades in this one are so pretty.
From Fenty Beauty I also purchased the Glossy Posse – Holo’Daze Christmas Edition which is a set of four mini Gloss Bombs in limited edition shades. The shades are (from left to right): Ruby Milk, Cake Shake, Taffy Tea$e, and Baby Brut. How cute are these glosses!
I’ve never been that interested in Too Faced make-up, but their holiday sets this year caught my eye for some reason. This Cinnamon Bear gift set is so cute, and I can’t wait to try both products.
This is the holiday set that started it all for me this year. It’s the Too Faced Christmas Snuggles & Melted Kisses – Gift Set which contains four mini Melted Matte Liquified Matte Long Wear lipsticks in the shades (from left to right) Hot Toddy, Candy Cane, Sugar Cookie, and Caramel Apple. The packaging is adorable and so festive and the lipsticks actually smell like the things they’re named after, which is incredible. I have already tried a couple of the shades, and I’m really impressed by the formula. I’m going to keep my eye out for sets like this one in the future.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I wanted to match my eyeshadow to my green jumper, so I had to break out another new eyeshadow palette (I have many new palettes to haul), because it contained the perfect green shade to match my jumper. It’s of course the new Jeffree Star Blood Money palette, which is a green palette and perfect for this time of year.

Here’s what I wore yesterday December 1. I had to go for a very christmassy outfit on the first day of December and wore my new green Christmas jumper that lights up. I paired it with my red corduroy trousers to go with the most festive colour scheme of red and green.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I wanted to try out another new eyeshadow palette I haven’t hauled yet (I know, I’m way behind on hauls), because it had all these stunning blue shades, which were perfect with the outfit. I’m talking about the By Beauty Bay Book of Magic palette, and I think I’m going to get along very well with this palette.

Here’s what I wore yesterday November 30. I’m really into the red and blue colour scheme for Christmas looks; it’s a bit different from the usual red and green colour combo, which is kind of nice for a change (though I also really love red and green looks – just wait and see).
