Can’t not

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I can’t not wear a blue eye look with that blue floral matching set. I think it’s impossible.

Very golden

Juvia’s Place haul – palettes and lips

I have a Juvia’s Place haul to share with you today. I haven’t purchased much from Juvia’s Place these past couple of years, but I was intrigued by their smaller palettes and lipsticks, so I picked up a few. Let’s begin with the palettes.

These are the four eyeshadow palettes I picked up; Olori I & II, The Sweet Pinks, and The Rebel Mints.

As far as I remember there is a third Olori palette as well, but I preferred the colour stories of I and II.

I’ve previously purchased The Violets and The Berries from the line of monochromatic palettes, and I really liked The Sweet Pinks as well. These pinks are so pretty.

The Rebel Mints is one of their smallest four pan palettes, and it consists of mints of course. I’m actually wearing all four shades from this palette today, and I think my eye look turned out really nice.

For lips I picked up one of the Luxe Lip liners in the shade So Rare, which is a warm brown, and I also got three The Nude Velvety matte lipsticks in the shades In Vogue, Muted, and Lady. I like the finish and formula of the lipsticks, but I really dislike the scent.

Flattering neutrals

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m very impressed by the quality of this newer Catrice eyeshadow palette, I was wearing on my eyes that day. I think it’s such a flattering neutral eye look on my eyes, if I do say so myself.

(Base: primers – Essence Catching Clouds Cloud-touch Mousse Primer in 01 Up On Cloud + I Heart Revolution x Elf collection primer, foundation – Maybelline Dream Urban Cover foundation (shade: 100 Warm Ivory), concealers – Rimmel The Multi-Tasker concealer (shade: 020 Fair) + NYX Born To Glow radiant concealer (shade: Pale), powders – Essence Brighten Up! Banana powder in 10 Bababanana + Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish powder (shade: 1 Fair). Face make-up: bronzer – Ofra Cosmetics x Samantha March River bronzer duo, blusher – Clinique Cheek Pop Pearl blush in 04 Rose Quartz Pop, highlighter – Essence Disney Classics Maxi Blush Highlighter in Bambi 01 Nature. Eye make-up: base – MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly, eyeshadows – Catrice Disney Classics Multi-Effect Eyeshadow Palette in Miss Bunny 030 Flirtatious (shades: Hello + Tail + Thumper + Make Up + Passion + Fashionable + Eyelashes), mascara – MAC M·A·CStack mascara, eyeliner – MAC Studio Chromagraphic pencil in NC15/NW20. Eyebrows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze + Maybelline Brow Ultra Slim pencil in Medium Brown. Lips: NYX Suede Matte lip liner in Cannes + MAC Sweet-N-Vicious lipstick)

MAC Wild Cherry collection

For the past three or four years MAC has released a cherry blossom inspired spring collection, and this year’s collection is called Wild Cherry. As you can see, I picked up quite a few items from the collection: I bought the Fix+ in the cherry blossom scent (which is my favourite Fix+ scent), the Extra Dimension Skinfinish in Petallic Metallic, the Glow Play blush in Peaches ‘N’ Dreams, the Love Me lipstick in Sakura Szn, and the Pre + Prime Lip.

Here’s the inside of the Extra Dimension Skinfinish. It’s so pretty, right?! The shade is a shifty gold to pink, which is very pretty, however, I don’t find the formula to be as good as some other Extra Dimension Skinfinishes. This one is a little less pigmented and smooth.

The MAC Glow Play blushes are some of my favourites, and this is the first time they’ve been released in limited edition shades and packaging. This shade is quite similar to the shade Groovy from the permanent line, though a little lighter.

This collection only included Love Me lipsticks, which is a creamy formula. I picked up the more nude shade in the collection, and it’s a very pretty shade (I’m wearing it here and here).

I also got some free gifts with this purchase which I thought I would include in this haul as well. I got two brushes, which is always nice, because MAC brushes are not cheap. These are the 133S Small Cheek brush and the 275S Medium Angled Shading brush.

For once I also wanted to include the free samples I got with this order, because I got a couple of interesting ones. I’ve been wanting to try both the Studio Fix Mattifine 12HR Shine-Control primer and the M·A·CStack mascara. I’ve already used up the mascara, and I loved it. I also received a Lightful C3 Radiant Hydration Skin Renewal Lotion and another Strobe Cream sample in Pinklite.

Beauty Killer 2

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m obsessed with this make-up look! I’m wearing the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Beauty Killer 2 palette (which I haven’t hauled yet) on my eyes, and I bought the palette purely for the two purple/indigo shades, and they are just as stunning as I hoped they would be. I also love the warm nude lip.

(Base: primer – Essence Prime + Studio Multi-Action + Protecting primer, foundation – Essence Fresh & Fit foundation (shade: 05 Fresh Porcelaine), concealers – Rimmel The Multi-Tasker concealer (shade: 020 Fair) + NYX Born To Glow radiant concealer (shade: Pale), powders – Essence Brighten Up! Banana powder in 10 Bababanana + Dior Backstage Face & Body Powder-No-Powder in 0 Neutral. Face make-up: bronzer – Anastasia Beverly Hills Cream Bronzer in Sun Kissed, blusher – MAC Glow Play blush in So Natural, highlighter – Essence Disney Classics Maxi Blush Highlighter in Dumbo 02 Peanuts (used as blush topper/highlighter).

Bright green and blue

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I love how this bright green and blue eye look turned out. It’s so fun and summery, and it looks really pretty paired with a pink lip.

Collective H&M haul (February)

I have a collective H&M haul to share with you today. Most of the items were purchased on sale, and I got a mix of clothes and beauty.

I picked up two shirts, and you’ve already seen me wear both. The purple fleece shirt is boxy and cropped, and the orange shirt is oversized.

I also purchased two pairs of trousers. The striped knitted trousers are super comfortable, and I love me some pastels, so I really like the second pair as well. I also bought a pair of pink tights, but they got holes in them after the first wear, so I had to throw them away.

I think this was the first time I purchased make-up from H&M, but they actually carry quite a few different brands e.g. Morphe. So I picked up the Morphe x Nyane lipstick trio in Beyond Bold and the Morphe x Nyane 6-Piece Color pencil set.

I love how fun and colourful these lipsticks and pencils are, and they’re really pigmented too.

I also picked up the Morphe Continuous setting mist and the Take Home The Bronze bronzer in Oliver from The Balm. I’d heard good things about both of these products.

Lastly, I purchased four nail polishes. They’re in the shades Dewy Rose, New Leaf, Green As Gold, and Forest.

Not impressed

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I used another new Essence eyeshadow palette to create this eye look, but I wasn’t very impressed by this one. I was actually a little disappointed.
