Here’s what I wore Wednesday March 20. This is one of the most neutral looks I’ve worn in a long time, and even though I like it, I definitely prefer more colourful looks.

I have a Zalando haul to share with you today. It includes two pairs of sneakers and some make-up.
I love that Nike Cortez sneakers are back and in a bunch of different colourways and materials. I purchased another neutral coloured pair, I think the colour is called sesame, and they’re so nice and versatile.
This is my first pair of sneakers from Asics. They’re not sleek like a pair of Nike Cortez, but they’re so comfy, and I like the floral print on the side.
The rest of the haul is make-up. I love the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara in Pink Air, and the NYX Vivid Rich eyeliner in Emerald Empire is also nice. I’m not sure how I feel about the Revolution Beam Bright silk touch highlighter in Diamond Glow yet.
I’ve been using the NYX Pro Fix Stick correcting concealers a lot since I bought them. I got the shades 0.1 Green, 0.2 Pink, and 03 Alabaster.
I’m always intrigued by a lip product of this format. These are the NYX Fat Oil Slick Click shiny lip balms, and I picked up the shades 05 Link In My Bio, 08 #Thriving, 10 Double Tap, and 11 In A Mood. I’ve only worn the pink shade so far, and I remember liking it.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again again; I love red and pink together!

Here’s what I wore Monday March 18. It’s always fun to see how much the weather can change over two months. It was clearly not very warm when I wore this outfit, and this current week I’ve worn dresses or skirts with bare legs.

I have a rather large Colourpop haul to share with you today including the Twilight collection, the Lost in Love Valentine’s collection and more.
It’s been a while since I’ve waited in line to buy limited edition make-up online, but even so I was lucky enough to get the items I wanted from the Colourpop x Twilight collection at the original launch in January. I loved Twilight as a teenager, both the books and the films, so the collection is very nostalgic to me. I picked up the palette, the two Super Shock highlighters, and the three Lux lip oils.
This is what the Twilight palette looks like. After I had bought this collection I rewatched all of the films, and I think the colour story of the palette captures the colours of the first film so well.
I love Super Shock highlighters, so I really wanted to get my hands on these. They’re in the shades Vampire Skin and Meadow.
I purchased the Lux lip oils as a set. The set includes the shades Bells, Team Edward, and Team Jacob.
I picked up a lot of items from the Lost in Love collection, which was this year’s Valentine’s Day collection from Colourpop. I got the palette, the three Jelly Much shadows, the three lip & cheek balms, and one of the Ultra Glossy lips.
I love the Flirty Talk palette from last year’s Valentine’s Day collection, and I think I still prefer that one over the Lost in Love palette, however, this palette is really pretty as well. I’m wearing the palette and a couple of other products from this collection here.
I really enjoy the Jelly Much shadows in general, and these three shades are some of my new favourites. They’re called 4ever Valentine, All Love, and Moon & Stars.
The heart-shaped compacts from Colourpop are so cute, and I love that they did them with a new formula for this collection. They’re called the lip & cheek balms (I’ve only worn them on my cheeks though), and the shades are called Heart’s Content, Adore You, and Cutesy Wootsy. So far I really like this formula.
I believe this is my first time trying the Ultra Glossy lip formula. I just picked up the red shade called Lover Era, and it was very pretty.
Okay, I caved and purchased another mystery box. This was called the Secret Stash Mystery Box, and as you can see, it was a smaller box, which included four eyeshadow palettes and a F23 brush. I didn’t own any of these items beforehand, so I’m pretty pleased with this mystery box.
Here’s a closer look at the palettes; Lush Life, Colour Vision, Cashmere Forever, and She’s a Natural. I was most excited to get the Lush Life palette, which has really pretty packaging and a nice colour story.
Sticking with palettes, I decided to add two more monochromatic 9-pan palettes to my collection; the Wine & Only palette and the Mint To Be palette. Both are really pretty and good quality.
I love the Créme gel liners, so I was very intrigued to try out the multi-chrome version. I got this set including the shades Power Trip, Ventura Blvd, and Actin’ Up. These are very good multi-chrome eye liners.
Here’s a little random selection of sale items I picked up. I got the Extra Glazed palette, which is a very nice little blush and highlighter palette. I also picked up two blue Super Shock eyeshadows; Lap Dog and Eyeing You (Haunted House collection). And I also wanted to try the Ultra Blotted lip formula and got this pretty muted red shade called Keep It Classy.
The very last two products I purchased were the Super Shock highlighter in Stole the Show and the Glowing lip in Status. I can’t believe I didn’t already own the Stole the Show Super Shock highlighter, because it’s so stunning. And I did already own the Glowing lip in Status, but mine had never smelled good, so I picked up a new one (luckily is was on sale), because I love the colour.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m wearing another stunning Fantasy Cosmetica palette on my eyes; it’s the Rogue palette, and the colours are just beautiful.
(Base: primer – Iconic London Underglow blurring primer, foundation – Clinique Even Better Clinical serum foundation SPF 20 (shade: WN 01 Flax), concealers – Rare Beauty Positive Light under eye brightener (shade: Light) + Clinique Even Better All Over concealer + eraser (shade: WN 01 Flax), powders – Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Brightening Flawless Finish powder (shade: Fair/Medium) + Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish powder (shade: 1 Fair). Face make-up: bronzer – Natasha Denona Contour Sculpting Powder in 01 Light, blusher – Colourpop Extra Glazed cheek palette (shade: Strawberry Strudel), highlighter – Oden’s Eye Solmåne Moonlight Feel highlighter in H104 Lavender Dream. Eye make-up: base – MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly, eyeshadows – Essence eyeshadow in 20 Cream + Fantasy Cosmetica Rogue palette (shades: Stealth + Cunning + Subtle + Deception + Sleight of Hand), mascaras – MAC Extended Play Gigablack Lash mascara + Essence I Love Extreme crazy volume mascara, eyeliner – Oden’s Eye Solmåne gel liner in 008 Lavender. Eyebrows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze + Maybelline Brow Ultra Slim pencil in Medium Brown. Lips: Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Liner in Deep Taupe + Lunar Beauty liquid lipstick in Sailor)
Here’s what I wore Thursday March 14. I love a good print mix, and this combo was a bit of fun.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’ve had the GlossGods Cosmetics New Neutrals remixed palette for about a year, and I finally got around to creating an eye look with it. I really enjoy the GlossGods Cosmetics eyeshadow formulas and especially their shimmers.
