Too Faced Pretty Rebel eyeshadow palette haul

Hey guys,

I am sooooo excited to share with you my new love in eyeshadow palettes, the Too Faced Pretty Rebel palette. It is a gorgeous 10 shade palette with some jewel toned hues and every single one is a new colour by Too Faced. I don't even feel like swatching the colours they are so pretty!!! Also I am sorry for the crappy lighting because I just cannot wait till tomorrow to take pictures. Without further adieu I present to you, Too Faced Pretty Rebel

The front of the Box

The back of the box

The packaging is quite sleek and very trendy. It is a cardboard box like The Balm's Nude Tude palette with a gold flap lid, which has black and pink detailing. You get 15g of product for $59.95 from Kit Cosmetics. It was more expensive on beautybay.com, around $65 I think. It also comes with a full size mirror inside. The only con would be that no brush was included.

The palette back

 I will give you an overview but for detailed information and possible dupes you can see Temptalia's review about the shades and the palette here. 

So the palette comes with ten eyeshadows out of which two are matte. I will start the colour description  from the top left. Dainty, pinky beige and Charming, dark brown are the two matte colours. Girly is a duo chrome green brown, Totally fetch is a bright fuschia. Miss Sparkels is a black with silver shimmer and Ringleader is a warm peach. Gangsta is a coppery brown and Instigator is a gold. Badass is a dark blue with silver shimmer and Jailbird is a silver.

I am in love with totally fetch, badass and girly, cannot wait to do eyeshadow looks with this palette. The shadows are super buttery and pigmented. The shimmery ones do have some fallout but I have no problem with that. Another thing that is applaudable is that Too Faced included matte shades in the palette. I always like palettes that have some matte shades so that they can be used for traveling and you don't have to carry ten different eyeshadows or palettes separately. 

Overall I am in love with this palette and I definitely recommend it, especially if you are into colours. Even if you prefer neutrals, this palette has a nice variety of that too and any kind of look can be achieved.

Pros: 

Good variety of matte and shimmery shades

Great neutrals and bright colours

Soft and pigmented shades

Gorgeous sleek packaging

Long lasting and easy to blend

Cons: 

Limited Edition product will not be available for long

Expensive and not very easily accessible for some countries

No brush

Honestly I have no issues with this product. I am in total love and just cannot wait to start using it.

What do you think about this palette???? 

Let me know in the comments below I would love to hear your thoughts.

Cherry culture. Com haul ft NYX lip colours

Hey guys,

I ordered a few things off cherryculture a few weeks back and most of it was from NYX so I thought I shall do a small review cum swatch post on the lip colurs I bought. I have been hearing a lot of good things about these products so I had to buy them. I bought 2 of the xtreme lip creams, 3 soft matte lip creams and 1 matte lipstick.

Above are the 3 soft matte lip creams in Abu dhabi, Antwerp and Stockholm and the matte lipstick in whipped caviar

These are the 2 xtreme lip creams in butterly nude and skin tone. Below are the swatches.

I will start with the order the swatches are in. Butterly nude is a dirty rose nude colour that is very natural on the lips. The consistency of these xtreme lip creams is buttery and soft. I love that they are not sticky and not overly glossy. They don't last very long on the lips I get about 4 hours of wear with these. The second one is skintone which is a nude brown. It makes a perfect nude for my medium skin tone. It has a more warmer brown undertone to it than being a cool brown.

The next one is the soft matte lip cream in Abu Dhabi, I would say this is a matte version of skintone xtreme lip cream. It is a brown nude. These matte lip creams are a dream to apply and last about 4-5 hours on the lips too. I like how they don't dry my lips out like most matte lip colours do. Also the pigmentation is amazing. All the swatches are just one swipe which is great as a little goes a long way and you are not wasting a lot of product. Stockholm is a light coral pink which is a lighter version of xtreme lip cream in butterly nude. Antwerp is a bright bubblegum pink which looks great with a nice neutral eye look. 

The lipstick in whipped caviar is a nice purple pink which leans more towards the cool end. It is a very gorgeous colour for Indian skin tones and really brightens up the face.

Nyx is not a very expensive brand (all of these are around $6 each) but it is unaccessable as it is not available in stores in Australia and we can't see the colours or feel the consistency physically. I bought these off cherryculture.com when there was a Nyx sale but I usually buy all my Nyx products from beautyjoint.com because I feel they have better shiping rates.

Anyways hope you guys enjoyed my review.

StrawberryNet.com Haul and Review- YSL Rouge Volupte Shine and DiorAddict

Hey guys,

I just received my package from StrawberryNet.com and I am so excited to share the stuff that I bought with you. For those of you who don't know what StrawberryNet.com is, its basically a website that stocks all high end and some drugstore brands of makeup, skin care, hair care etc. You wont find all the products from a brand stocked here but I found a lot of discontinued products and thats why I love this website. All prices are cheaper than the Australian retail prices which makes me want to always shop here. An added bonus is that it provides free shipping* ( except for perfumes, something to do with customs). You can find all the info here

My experience has always been outstanding as far as super fast delivery (ordered on a friday, delivered on a tuesday) goes. I have ordered six times from them already and not once have they messed up and sent a wrong item, I will definitely be ordering more from them.

Anyways back to my haul. I am crazily obsessed  with the Rouge Volupté line of YSL so I bought two more colours. They look similar in the packaging but on the lips they definitely look different. Also this time I bought a Dior Addict lipstick too. The consistency of the Dior Addict lipsticks feel similar to the YSL Rouge Volupté Shine lipsticks and thats why I thought i'l give it a go.

As you can see both the Rouge Volupté Shine lipsticks look similar in colour in the tube but when applied 1 is more brown and the other more plum. The Dior Addict is a gorgeous pinky red and I love the formula.

Can't wait to use them more often!!

Hope you enjoyed my little haul and if you are looking for high end products but at a cheaper rate then please do check out StrawberryNet.com

Love ya!

Weekend haul

Hey guys,

Sorry for being away for a long time now, was juggling work and home and hardly found time for myself. So I thought why not go shopping and treat myself. These items were bought with my own money and I absolutely love them!

I bought Mac's Blush in Blunt which is a dark brown contour colour. I had heard very good things about this and when I went into the Mac store in Australia a few months ago they didn't even know this shade existed. So when I saw it in store yesterday I caved in and bought it.

The next two things are from Inglot. The first one is a cream blush in 83 and the second one is a lip paint in 64.

I have been loving cream blushes for the winter and I hardly have any so I bought this. It is a pretty peachy pink and looks very natural when on.

The next thing is this lip paint in number 64. Now I must say, I hate lipglosses but these lip paints are the bomb! I bought this red coral shade which looks gorgeous on the lips and doesn't stick ( the best part ) I hate anything that makes my lips stick to each other. Also both these products were 50% off so that was a bargain too. ( Inglot always has some products at 50% off when they have too much stock of that item)

Hope you guys enjoyed my little haul.

Do let me know if you have tried any of these products and if you like them or not.

Love!
