A cute ebay find: Pink Eyelash Case

I have been looking for a cute eyelash case for ages, but there are really hard to find on ebay. I finally managed to get my mitts on this one, but unfortunately it isn't available as 'buy it now'. I had to bid on it and paid around £1.50 :) It is soooo cute! I can finally store my favourite lashes somewhere, instead of sticking them to something random, like a compact or an eyeshadow palette :) haha.

Cargo Contour Palette Review - Malibu

CARGO Cosmetics Contour Palette - Malibu* £22.00

Contouring my face is something I am still trying to master and for some reason it is my favourite part of doing my makeup :) I developed an obsession with highlighters and I adore many different ones, but... finding the right contour colour is a struggle. I know that most girls use their normal bronzer to define cheekbones (I do it too), but makeup artists recommend using something with less orange hues, preferably with grey undertones. If you find the  'contour and highlight' thing confusing, I have a fool-proof solution for you! The Cargo Contour Palette is a godsend and offers perfect colours to help you  create gorgeous cheekbones and add dimension to your face in three easy steps.

NARS At First Sight Palette (review, swatches,makeup look)

NARS At First Sight Palette (£32.00)

I have been lusting after a NARS palette for ages, so it was the first item I placed in my asos basket, after I won a gift voucher on Sarah's blog. I was sooooo excited! The limited edition 'At First Sight' Eye & Cheek Palette by NARS includes four eyeshadows, a blush and a bronzer and it would be a perfect way to start your adventure with NARS products. I own a couple of things from NARS and I really like them, so it was a matter of time before I got one of their lovely palettes. 

Sunday Manicure: Etude House Minnie Mouse Top Coats

I couldn't resist ordering some Minnie Top Coats from Etude House a couple of weeks ago and I must admit- they are as cute as I imagined them to be :) I ordered two variations - Minnie White Face and Minnie Pink Ribbon (approx. £3.50 each). They both look totally different in the bottle, but once applied over the same nail colour, they look quite similar. 

Guest Post: Make-up Tips When Out Past Midnight

What's on my face #1

I quite like the idea of 'What's On My Face' posts so I thought I should start sharing my favourite makeup products weekly. I reviewed some of the products featured in this post already, but you can expect full reviews of the other bits next week :)

Budget Buy: MUA Undress Your Skin Shimmer Highlighter

I have been trying to get my mitts on the MUA Undress Your Skin Shimmer Highlighter for absolute ages, but it was sold out everywhere for a couple of months! Crazy! I made sure to sign up to Superdrug's notifications though, to let me know when it is back in stock and as soon as I got the email, I ordered... THREE of them :) haha.

Lily Lolo Classic and Metallics Collection

I am a big fan of Lily Lolo and I own quite a big selection of their products.  Their Mineral Concealer is fantastic and their gorgeous Demure & Intense Crush  lipsticks are some of my all time favourite lip colours. I also purchased some of their loose eye shadows and the pigmentation was incredible, but... I prefer pressed products, so the new releases looked very promising. There are four new  Lily Lolo products available, including two Eye Shadow Quads and two shades of Shimmer Stripes. 

Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation Review

I am pretty sure that this foundation doesn't need an introduction :) It is the one and only Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation. Many bloggers and youtubers rave about it and again... I fell for the hype. Even the £33 price tag didn't put me off. Is it worth the money and all the hype? Let's find out...

Boujrois Happy Light Range - reviewed

More fabulous releases from Bourjois? Yep! They are on a roll! Their Happy Light range was released at the beginning of October and you probably noticed it in your local Boots and Superdrug, or already own some of the new products. I have been trialing the Happy Light Luminous Serum Primer, Foundation and Concealer and as usual, I am very impressed. I have so much love for Bourjois! 

New additions to my MAC Palette: Sumptuous Olive, Club and Nylon (review, makeup look and swatches)

Building a MAC palette ain't cheap and it doesn't happen overnight, but... I couldn't resist ordering three more shades online. I also got a sample of the Zoom Fast Black Lash Mascara and free delivery so it wasn't too bad :) The shades I got this time are Nylon, Sumptuous Olive and Club. The first one is a perfect highlight and the two green colours look lovely with brown eyes, so I just had to order them

Clarins The Essentials Eye Makeup Palette

Clarins The Essentials Eye Makeup Palette* £35.00

Another neutral eye shadow palette? Well... The Essentials Eye Makeup Palette by Clarins is different. It was created to make your eyes look amazing, while supporting human rights and the environment. Clarins has joined forces with Pur Project and they promised to plant 10,000 trees to help revive the Kuntanawa culture. As someone who studied (and is passionate about )cultural anthropology, I feel very strongly about preserving and reviving vanishing cultures, so it makes me really happy to see Clarins engaging in such a great cause. Well done! But what do I think about The Essentials Eye Makeup Palette itself? Let's find out.
