Review Smashbox fusion soft lights in baked starburst

Smashbox site: "Get a gorgeous lit-from-within glow with this radiant silk-like powder. The innovative baked formula imparts a soft veil of shimmer and keeps your skin looking luminous. Winner of Self Magazine's Healthy Beauty Award for Best Bronzer."










I like this product cause it's a bronzer and an highlighter all in one.
It's gives a natural sunkissed glow to fair skin like mine without looking too orange or muddy.
The powder is finely milled and a little bit goes a long way. It containes 8,5gr so it's gonna last you forever. 
It has a subtle scent that i cannot describe.

Mac Russian Red Review


I received this lipstick for my birthday and I love it.

This is one of my fave reds and one of my fave lipsticks ever.



 with flash
without flash

It's a matte red with blue undertones, so it makes your teeth appear wither.
The lasting power it's really good and I often apply it without a lip pencil 'cause it doesn't bleed at all.
It look very luxurious and old hollywood style. Gives a kick to every simple eyemakeup.
It's not too much, but classy so I fell like you can pull it off even if you aren't red lips girls.

Vote: 5 out of 5
Price: 18,5€ for 3gr

Now on my wishlist I have ruby woo and lady danger ;)

Here is a FOTD where I used russian red.


See you soon!

Happy birthday to me! Udc Naked palette first impression, swatches & comparison

For my birthday I received del Naked Palette!







 
The eyeshadow are realy pigmented and creamy, they can also be used without a primer. I noticed that Naked and Bucked are less pigmented than the oder. 
In the past I've heard some bloggers say that the Naked are similar to the Storm sleek palette. Here are some comparison for you.
  
 
Udc Gunmetal vs #9 Storm: 
Pretty similar, the eyeshadow from the Sleek palette is a llittle bit lighter than Gunmetal.
 #6 Storm vs Udc Hustle:
The one from the Sleek palette is reddish than Hustle.

 #5 Storm vs Udc Sin:
In real life they are more similar than photographed. There is really only a different in light-reflection.

I thought #3 and #11 from the Storm could be similar to Naked and Bucked, but really they aren't.

So the Storm palette can't be a substitution for the Naked... Sorry!

Zoeva 28 nude palette, review and swatches



 

I love my nude, they are the colours that i tend to reach the most.

In this palette the eyeshadow are matte, shimmer and matte with glitter.
The pigmentation is great (for the swatches i didn't use any eyeshadow base) the only downside is the fallout.
My fave colours are #5, 18, 19, 21, 27.

It's fairly good for the price. Althought I have a lot of eyeshadows, I often use it.

Barry M Nail Paints in Blue Glitter, Cobalt Blue and Mushroom Reviews

The quality on these nailpolish is awsome for the price.
The formula applies beautifully and it only took two coats to be opaque. They also dry very quickly and the color range in huge.

I picked these three colours:


Barry M Blue Glitter #297:  
It remembers me of Opi Absolutely Alice(I don't own it, you can see it here) 

-Easy to apply
-You need two coat
-Dries quickly
-Because it's full of glitters, doesn't last a lot (3/4 days)



Barry M Cobalt Blue #291:
-Easy to apply
-More dense than the Mushroom colour
-Needs to coats
-Dries quickly
-Pretty Long lasting


Barry M Mushroom #310: 
-Easy to apply
-Needs two coats
-Dries quickly
-Pretty Long lasting

I tought this colour will be better to wear during fall or winter; instead i like it also in summer with the tan.

Here you can find the swatches of Mushroom and Particulier (chanel) side by side. I think they look pretty similar!
