Kawaii party

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I had a really hard time capturing the glitter on my eyelids in the pictures, but at least you can see how cute the MAC Nicopanda lipstick in the shade Kawaii Party is.

MAC limited edition collective haul

I’ve been collecting some limited edition MAC lipsticks + a face powder over the past couple of months, and I thought I would make one collective haul.

The first lipsticks I bought was these adorable Nicopanda ones. The shades I’ve got are Kawaii Party and Nico Kiss and they’re both matte lipsticks. Kawaii Party is a beautiful lavender shade, and you know how I feel about purple lipsticks. Nico Kiss is a black navy. I haven’t worn it yet, but I think it’ll be great for a night out.

My most recent MAC purchases are two products from this year’s summer collection, Mirage Noir, and a lipstick from the Lunar New Year collection, which launched earlier this year.

The MAC website sometimes have a 40 % off sale on their ‘goodbyes’, and this lipstick was a part of that sale. I thought about getting this matte dusty rose colour back when the collection first launched, so I’m excited about adding it to my collection.

It probably comes as no surprise that I chose the purple lipstick in this year’s summer collection. It’s called Beach Nut and it’s a matte deep purple. I also couldn’t resist the beautiful Pearlmatte Face Powder in the shade Mother O’ Pearl. So stunning!

Metallic dream

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. How pretty is this lipstick! It’s super metallic, and the pink gold colour is really flattering and makes the shade very wearable.

More Jeffree Star lipsticks

DSC_5337

I recently added some more shades to my Jeffree Star Velour liquid lipstick collection. The shade Anna Nicole (orangey-red) has been on the top of my wishlist for ages, but it had been sold out on Beautybay.com for a while. When I found out that it was back in stock, I finally ordered it, and I’m so glad I did. It’s the perfect summer red, and I’ve already worn it several times. The main reason why I decided to check out the Velour liquid lipsticks was that Jeffree Star recently brought back shades from limited edition collections and made them permanent. The two shades I decided to pick up were Christmas Cookie (first released in the 2017 holiday collection) and Candyass (first released the the 2017 summer collection). Christmas Cookie is medium nude. It’s quite similar to Celebrity Skin (which is my favourite nude lipstick), but it has a pink undertone (Celebrity Skin is more brown). I’m actually wearing Christmas Cookie for the first time today, and I already love it. Candyass is a gorgeous pink/rose gold metallic shade. It’s very metallic, but still very wearable. All in all, I love all three shades.

Golden olive

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I decided to wear some golden olive shades on my eyes to match my skirt, and then I popped on one of my favourite lip colours.

More brown please

Purple pop

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I love this make-up! On a daily basis I tend to wear very neutral eye make-up, but adding a bit of colour to the lower lash line is super quick and easy, and it looks great.

First impressions: Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow liquid eye shadow

DSC_5385

A ton of beauty youtubers have raved about the Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow liquid eye shadows, and as a glitter lover, I had to try one out. I chose the shade Smoldering Satin, which is a brown/taupe with silver glitter.

First impressions

The eye shadow is really easy to apply. It has a pretty standard liquid eye shadow/lipstick wand/applicator. I used a finger to blend out the edges which worked very well. It dries rather quickly, and it’s really long lasting. It also looks stunning, so if you love an intense glittery look, I would definitely recommend these. I recently bought a second shade, and I would love to add more colours to my (small) collection.
