Collective Haul 2014 ❤


Hey friends, 

I apologise again for lacking on making videos and posting blogposts on this blog. However, to make up for all the long wait, I subjected a new video and its a collective haul of all the makeup and beauty necessities I have accumulated during these past few months. They are a mixture of high-end to drugstore cosmetics and have exceeded my expectations, well most of them. I absolutely adored these products and I definitely recommend all of it. Some may be over-priced but, you never know.. Christmas is just round the corner ;) 




Considering how long this video is, I have done my best to shorten it and ensured that I wouldn't rumble on too much. Still though, I thank you for spending your time watching it and now you're on my blog reading this :) It makes me smile. 
The swatches and more in-depth review of such products will most certainly happen as I do not want to disappoint you all. It would be a great pleasure to share my experience and opinions of these cosmetics stated on my Youtube video.

Becca Ombre Nudes Eye Palette Review & Swatches ❤

Hi guys, I'm here to review for you today the Becca Ombre Nudes Eye Palette. I have seen this palette being raved about ever since it came out which is not so long ago. I ordered it from Space NK for quite a high price however, it was worth it. Below are pictures displaying the pigmentation, true shades and the quality of the product swatches without and with a primer. This Becca Eye Palette contains 5 eyeshadows that contains mostly cool toned shades of brown except eyeshadow (1) which is a light dusty peach shade. I apologise If I haven't took an image of the back of the palette but it doesn't say much, just the number of the shades without names. 


Without Flash.

---------------------------------
Whole review of the product:

Packaging: The packaging comes in a dark brown/Sepia colour box with Becca printed on the side. Just like any regular box packaging, it includes the name of the palette and description on the back saying, "Create natural depth and luminous highlight with velvety soft, tone-on-tone ombre nudes. Skin-authentic shades with a range of contrasting undertones enhance and illuminate the eye area for a wide-eyed effect, Green Coffee Oil helps awaken the eyes and smooth the lids, while a built-in priming effect extends the wear of your shadows. These versatile neutrals may be used to create a range of looks, from subtle to bold". The main packaging of the product has a sleek and glossy cover with a wide mirror inside covered with a plastic so that it wouldn't get dirt on it. It also contains 5 eyeshadows size compared  with the MAC single eyeshadows. The way to lock the product and open is a clip-in access and it is very easy and convenient to carry in your makeup bag.
Price:
Pigmentation: If the eyeshadows are applied without a primer, it comes off looking like a light shadow however it works best with a primer. One of the eyeshadows (1), when being built for more clarity became quite powdery and can get messy. In contrast with this, the other dark eyeshadows are fine. They do cling onto hairs hence the picture above.
Fragrance: No fragrance
Texture: Buttery, powdery & good quality.
Multi-uses: Except for its main purpose of eyeshadows, this product can be used to create natural contour shadows in your face. depending on skin tone. The eyeshadow (1) and (2) can be used for light skin tones, (2, 3, 4) for tan-mid dark skin tones and (4,5) for dark-ebony dark skin tones.
Audience/Preferable for: Any one
Price: £34.00
Rate: 8/10
Delivery Experience: When I first ordered this product, it was out of stock everywhere. After a week, I found it available in stock at the Space NK website. I had to splurge myself into getting the palette as quickly as possible since it runs out quite quickly. Successfully, getting myself one; it is set to be delivered at my home by Tuesday 30th. I was excited because when the product arrived they provided exactly what estimated time they were going to be delivering the products as well as the name of the delivery guy. Whilst I was opening the package, I found  the eyeshadow that I bought from Laura Mercier but the palette was not there. I became quite disappointed so I rang customer service and told them of what my enquiry is about and they have told me that they do not know when they are going to be delivering the next stock of this product so thus, I waited because it was out of stock again on the website. The day after, I recieved an email explaining that I have got a delivery soon set up to arrive on Thursday, 2nd of October from Space NK. After so, I have received my product.
Delivery Rate: 6/10

 Website Bought: http://uk.spacenk.com/ombre-nude-eye-palette/MUK200013696.html
I am not paid to do this review neither was I sponsored by this product. All opinions are mine.

 I hope you enjoyed this blog post,

Flawless Face Make-up ❤

Here in this post, I will be showing you how you can transform your face into flawless looking skin in under 10 minutes. Along with that, the directions on how to apply such product, products and video will be below too. Enjoy ! (more pictures below)
----------
Since summer is definitely out now, I just wanted to share to you all how I put on that flawless mask. If you do have super oily skin, I suggest you use a setting powder or a stronger primer to hold your face makeup. A good base primer as well as a base coat holds it all together.




Products Used to achieve this flawless face: 
Not entirely sure about this primer. It was my first time using it on this video and I did not really know what to feel about it but I will ensure to update you on that in another blog post. :) 
Apply this gorgeous foundation evenly, starting in the centre of your face then blended outwards. What is lovely about this foundation is that it is very buildable and easy to blend. 

Beautiful Brush to use with liquid foundation such as the G.A.L.S. 
I applied this concealer starting from the centre of the face and then focusing it underneath the eyes as I do need to remove those unwanted dark circles.
 

This is directly applied into the lids as a base for my eyeshadow as I do have oily lids.

I used this powder in order to remove the oily/shineness from my forehead and underneath my eyes. I also apply it on areas where I wanted to apply my bronzer and blush. 

Using this bronzer, I take a dab of this with my Eco Brush into the sockets of my face. Make sure when contouring, you do not go past your eyebrow as it will look unnatural and dragged on. Again, I use this product to warm up my face therefore, I apply it on my temples as well as my chin and lower jawline.

Apply the blush on the top of your cheeks or apples. 

Sad to say that this product is limited edition, it is such a great product to use for highlighting. I hope Urban Decay continues to make this product again because I am so in love with it!
