Here’s what I wore Wednesday February 23. Purple, orange, and blue is not a colour combo I’ve played around with much, but I think this is such a fun look.

Not quite matching
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. The shades of red on my eyes and on my lips are not quite matching, but I don’t really mind, because all the shades still matches my jumper.

Some shade of red
Here’s what I wore Tuesday February 22. I love a good black and white look with a pop of colour. Especially when that pop of colour is some shade of red.

Dark brown lip
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I hadn’t worn a really dark brown lip in a while, but there’s something I really like about it, and this particular lipstick is probably my favourite dark brown.

Beauty Bay haul (late October/early November)
I have a rather large collective Beauty Bay haul to share with you today. These are products that I purchased in late October/early November last year. Let’s begin with the products I purchased from By BEAUTY BAY.
I love the 20-pan palettes from By BEAUTY BAY and the Wilderness palette might be my favourite one so far. This colour story is so beautiful and inspiring, and I always enjoy using this palette.
I also picked up the 2021 holiday palette from By BEAUTY BAY, which was the Age Of Opulence palette. This is another stunning palette with a another great colour scheme.
I also decided to pick up the By BEAUTY BAY Jade Thirlwall x BEAUTY BAY 42 colour palette, and I’m very impressed by this palette. Really big palettes can be a bit overwhelming, but I’ve reached for this palette quite a bit.
Of course I had to get the By BEAUTY BAY Disney Colour and BEAUTY BAY Mini Palette Trio. These palettes include all matte shades which are based on colours from Alice In Wonderland (Cheshire Cat), Dumbo, and Jungle Book. I love the concept, and the colours are so pretty and unique.
Later on a second Disney Colour collection launched, so I also got the By BEAUTY BAY Disney Colour and BEAUTY BAY Palette Duo, which include another Alice in Wonderland palette (Mad Hatter) and a Bambi palette.
The last item I picked up from the By BEAUTY BAY Disney Colour and BEAUTY BAY collection (this time around) was the Lip & Cheek Duo in Mad Hatter Tongue. I really like both the blush and lipstick.
Let’s move on to a bit of BH Cosmetics. This is the Absinthe palette, and it’s such a good green palette. I’ve loved the looks, I’ve created with this.
I received the BH Cosmetics Opalescent palette as a free gift with purchase, and even though it’s mostly a neutral palette, I do think it’s very pretty.
The last item I got from BH Cosmetics is the BH Cosmetics X Doja Cat Flora Powder Blush Trio in Poppy. I really liked the unique blush shades in this particular palette. From Stila I got the Stila Treasure Island All-in-One Putty Trio. I’m not quite sure how I feel about this palette to be honest. It wasn’t my favourite at first try. And then I picked up another Jeffree Star Velvet Trap lipstick, because I love that lipstick formula. This is in the shade Diet Mannequin.
Last, but not least, I purchased the Sigma Beauty Sigma Switch, which is a quick and easy brush cleaning tool, if you can call it that. You just swipe you dirty brush in the proper spot, and then you can use it a little while longer before properly cleaning it.
Extra glitter
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. It’s not often that I use pressed glitters, but I thought it would be fun to add a little extra something to this date make-up look.
(Base: primer – Milk Makeup Hydro Grip primer, foundation – Catrice True Skin Hydrating foundation (shade: 004 Neutral Porcelain), concealers – e.l.f. 16HR Camo matte concealer (shades: Light Sand + Fair Warm), powders – MAC Studio Fix Sculpt And Shape contour palette Light/Medium (shade: Accentuate + Emphasize) + NYX Can’t Stop Won’t Stop mattifying powder in 01 Fair. Face make-up: contour/bronzer – MAC Studio Fix Sculpt And Shape contour palette Light/Medium (shade: Bone Beige) + Revlon SkinLights Prismatic bronzer in 110 Sunlit Glow, blusher – Soda #exploretheocean face palette in We Share The Earth (shade: Date Nights), highlighter – Soda #exploretheocean face palette in We Share The Earth (shades: Happy End + Wedding Dress). Eye make-up: bases – MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly + NYX Glitter primer, eyeshadows – Essence eyeshadow in 05 Granny Pants + Soda #exploretheocean eyeshadow palette in Under The Sea (shades: Mermaid Tail + Underwater Palace + Aquata + King Triton) + Soda #exploretheocean face palette in We Share The Earth (shade: Wedding dress – inner corners + browbones), mascara – Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara, eyeliner – Marc Jacobs Highliner Glam Glitter gel eye crayon in (Gem)Stoned. Eyebrows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze + Maybelline Brow Ultra Slim pencil in Medium Brown. Lips: MAC Boldly Bare lip pencil + NARS VIP Audacious lipstick in Barbara + Soda #exploretheocean shimmery lip gloss in 001 Precious Voice)
A film and lunch
Here’s what I wore Friday February 18. I went on a date with my boyfriend that day. We watched Spiderman: No Way Home and had lunch at one of our favourite restaurants. It was a great day.
