5 favourites – March

Posted on March 31, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

How has a quarter of the year already gone by?! Time just moves so fast. The calendar says spring, but so far we’ve only had one week of spring weather in Denmark (it snowed yesterday!). I’m really yearning for warmer weather, so hopefully we’ll get some more of that soon. My favourites from the first month of spring are make-up heavy, but I’m really excited about these products, so let’s talk about them.

Natasha Denona Pastel palette: Besides from the Circo Loco palette this is the most exciting palette Natasha Denona has released in my opinion. I love colourful eyeshadows, I love pastels and I love the ND formulas, so I’m really enjoying this palette. It’s just the perfect spring palette, isn’t it?

Catrice All Matt Shine Control Powder Healthy Look (shade: 100 Neutral Fresh Beige): I’ve loved this powder since I purchased it back in September, so I thought it was about time that I featured it in a favourites post. This powder has the prettiest natural glow to it (don’t be fooled by the “all matt” in the name). If you love the Dior Backstage Face & Body Powder-No-Powder, but want to try a much cheaper alternative, try this Catrice powder.

e.l.f. Cosmetics Putty bronzer (shade: Tan Lines): I think this is my most used bronzer in the month of March. I haven’t hauled it yet, but I had to share it with you, because it’s such a stunning, affordable cream bronzer, and it’s so easy to work with. It’s giving the Fenty Beauty Cheeks Out Freestyle cream bronzer a run for it’s money.

Rms Beauty Living Luminizer: Here’s another product that I haven’t hauled yet, but that I’ve been obsessed with. This is the first cream highlighter that I’ve truely fallen in love with. It just looks so stunning on the skin.

West Side Story (2021 film): My last favourite is not a make-up product, but a film. I’ve never watched the original West Side Story, though I really want to, but maybe it was a good thing, because then I didn’t have anything to compare the 2021 version to. And I loved the 2021 version. I obviously knew the story and most of the songs, but it was just so well executed. I’m also a big fan of a lot of Steven Spielberg’s work, which might also be a reason why I liked this film.

Small Asos haul (early October)

Posted on March 30, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a small Asos haul to share with you today. These are items I purchased in early October last year. Let’s start with shoes and then do accessories afterwards.

You’ve already seen me wear these in a couple of outfit posts. These boots are from Miss Selfridge and I didn’t have a pair of boots in this shade of purple, and it’s probably my favourite shade of purple.

These patchwork loafers are from Asos Design, and they’re so fun. I think I’ve only worn them once so far, but I have to wear them again soon.

I love colourful tights, and I absolutely needed a pair of lilac ones in my wardrobe. These are from Asos Design.

I picked up three rings. The silver one with the rainbow rhinestone is from the brand Kingsley Ryan, and I’ve worn it a lot. The golden one with the pearls is from the brand True Decadence, and the other golden ring is from Asos Design. I decided to gift the last ring to my youngest sister, because I thought she would like it.

The last item in this haul is a big checkered pink hair clip from Asos Design. I still love big hair clips and hair accessories in generel, and I’ve worn this hair clip quite a bit.

Another disappointing palette

Posted on March 29, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I haven’t gotten around to hauling the palette that I’m wearing on my eyes in these pictures yet, but I was a little disappointed with the pigmentation or lack thereof. It’s the Coca-Cola X Morphe Awe Together artistry palette, and even though I bought it mainly because it was made in collaboration with Coca-Cola (which is one of my favourite beverages), I was still expecting a little more from it.

Poreless Putty primer, foundation – L’Oreal Paris Infaillible 24H Fresh Wear foundation (shade: 015 Porcelain), concealer – L’Oréal Infaillible More Than Concealer (shade: 322 Ivory), powders – e.l.f. HD powder in Soft Luminance + L’Oréal True Match Perfecting powder in 2.N Vanilla. Face make-up: bronzer – Physicians Formula Butter bronzer (shade: Light), blusher – MAC Melba powder blush, highlighter – Clinique Powder Pop Flower highlighter in Lunar Pop.

Non Cruella De Vil way

Posted on March 29, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s what I wore Thursday January 6. I wanted to style the dalmatian skirt in a non Cruella De Vil way, and I think I succeeded.

Metallic lime green opportunity

Posted on March 28, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Every time I get an opportunity to wear metallic lime green eyeshadow, I go for it, and the metallic lime green eyeshadow I’m wearing in these pictures is one of my absolute favourites.

Easy denim dress

Posted on March 28, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s what I wore Wednesday January 5. I think this denim dress was the only clothing item I bought on Black Friday. It’s such an easy piece to style; I especially like it paired with a roll neck top and knee high boots.

(Dress – Only, roll neck top – second hand, boots – Raid)

Intense, colourful, and nude

Posted on March 27, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I just love an intense, colourful eye look paired with a nude lip.

Meant to be

Posted on March 27, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s what I wore Tuesday January 4. I think this jumper and these jeans were meant to be worn together. I really like this orange, purple, and blue colour scheme.

Zalando + Lyko make-up haul (mainly Disney)

Posted on March 26, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a collective make-up haul to share with you today. Some items I purchased on Zalando and some I purchased on Lyko. But the majority of the items are Disney related. Let’s start with those.

I’ve been collecting the I Heart Revolution X Disney Fairytale Books palettes and highlighters, and this time around I got my hands on the Sleeping Beauty ones and the Snow White ones. Besides the Sleeping Beauty palette and highlighter, I also picked up the Sleeping Beauty lip trio.

Here’s what the Sleeping Beauty palette looks like. Very pretty blush, highlight, and eyeshadow shades.

The Sleeping Beauty highlighter is a bit more unique than the other ones that I’ve got. It has a rose design and the colour is quite unique too.

The lip trio comes with three glosses; one for each of the fairies Fauna, Flora, and Merryweather.

From the Snow White collection I picked up the palette, the Apple highlighter, and also the mini palette with the Seven Dwarfs.

I really like the vibrant red blushers in the Snow White palette.

The Seven Dwarfs palette has seven shades; one for each of the dwarfs.

And the Snow White highlighter is shaped like an apple, which is a cute touch.

The last three items in this haul are not Disney related. I picked up the NYX Lift & Snatch Brow Tint Pen in Ash Brown, the Barry M fresh Face cheek & lip tint in Caramel Kisses, and the Essence Fresh & Fit foundation in 05 Fresh Porcelaine. So far I like the brow tint pen, even though I still prefer to use a pencil with my ABH Brow Freeze. I’ve only used the blusher once, but I remember it to be pretty, and the foundation is nice too.
