Burgundy and blue eyes

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I don’t think I’ve ever done a burgundy and blue eye look like this before, even though I love the colour combo. I might do a similar look again, because I think it turned out really pretty.

A little disappointed

Here’s the make-up I wore this outfit. I used the Revolution x Friends Monica shadow palette for the first time, and I was a little disappointed. The shade Twins that I used on the lids is very sheer, but maybe it’s more of a topper shade. I’m still excited to try more shades from the palette though.

Flattering brown

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Green and purple is such a stunning colour combo, and this is just the most flattering brown lipstick.

MAC Frosted Firework holiday 2020

It’s that time of the year again. Time to purchase this year’s MAC holiday collection. It’s been out for a little while now, but I still think you can get a lot of the items. It’s called the Frosted Firework collection, and the packaging is shiny, pale pink with silver and glitter details; very pretty. I purchased two lipsticks, an eyeliner, an highligter, and a highlight palette from the collection.

The lipsticks I bought are in the shades Once Bitten, Ice Shy (love that name) and Out With A Bang. Once Bitten, Ice Shy is described as a sheer white w. pearl and it has a lustre finish, and Out With a Bang is described as a deep rich burgundy and it has an amplified creme finish.

I don’t usually go for eyeliners when it comes to these limited edition collections, but I was intrigued by this Dual Powerprint eye pencil. It’s in the shade Short Fuse/Be Cool Bb and the shades are described as a purple with multicoloured pearl and a bright white with pearl.

And now on to highlighters. The Extra Dimension Skinfinish formula is one of my favourite highlight formulas, so I had to have this frosty white beauty called Let It Glow.

My favourite products to buy from MAC holiday collections besides lipsticks are the face compacts. They usually have the Extra Dimension formula, and this year MAC gave us the Flashing Ice Extra Dimension Skinfinish trio. I picked up the light version, and it contains the following shades (from left to right): Glitzed Out, There She Glows, and Out on the Tinseltown. I love the names, and the shades are so pretty!

Incredible rainbows

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I went with turquoise eyes to match the trousers and pink lips to match the blazer and top. Oh, and how incredible are those rainbow earrings!

Dark and smokey

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I don’t remember the last time I wore an eye look this dark and smokey. As I wrote in my last make-up post, I tend to go for brighter colours, but I don’t hate this look.

Revolution x Friends

I haven’t tried many products from Revolution, but when I saw that they had made a Friends collection, I had to get my hands on some of the products, since I’m a huge Friends fan.

I absolutely had to get the smaller eyeshadow palettes; one for each of the girls. The packaging is super cute, and I love the names of the eyeshadows as well. I’ve only tried the Rachel and the Monica palette once each, so I haven’t formed a proper opinion on these palettes yet, but they do look pretty.

Here’s the inside of the Rachel palette. I love that there’s a shade called dinosaur.

This is the Monica palette. This has a very nice autumnal colour story.

And here’s what the Phoebe palette looks like. There’s some slightly softer shades in this one.

I sadly didn’t manage to get my hands on any of the lipsticks, but I did purchase two lipglosses. I got the Rachel and the Ross shades, which is quite fitting, right? The lids on these glosses are so cute, and I’m excited to try out the formula.

A bit darker and more vampy

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. This look is a bit darker and more vampy than most of my “usual” make-up looks (I tend to go for brighter colours), but I really like it.

Rosy

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. It’s not very often that I wear rosy make-up looks, but it went with my outfit, and even though it’s a subtle look, I still quite like it.
