Another TesterKorea Haul..!

Here's what kicked off my No-Buy lovies. I only bought one of these hauls, but it was enough to make me want to go on one. I hope I can keep up with it, aside from buying the occasional Memebox to keep up with that. We ALL know they spit out boxes super quickly!

Onto the hauls!

REVIEW & TUTORIAL: Etude House Dear My Blooming Eyes Palette - Shade OR201 Bashful Coral!

Hello my lovies. I'm back from visiting my family! I had a wonderful time. Little man turned two on the 8th! He's getting older, quicker, & I am NOT ready! LOL. 

I bought this palette awhile ago & have used it quite sparingly. I really only use this for special occasions when I only want a very light makeup look.

I'll not only be going into the colors, but I have done a makeup look using all the colors in this palette the way I would normally apply this!

Let's start with the product itself!

REVIEW: Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette!

Hello again my lovies. I'm struggling to type this up at the moment, so I'm doing my best to make this post really great since I'M SICK AGAIN! This weather has been doing a number on my body. ^^; I'm totally feeling lethargic. Enough about me, let's get into the beauty of the Naked 3 Palette.

I received this as a Christmas present from my mother. I was so looking forward to receiving this palette since we first heard there was going to be a third palette in the works. What makes me love this palette even more, is that it's based off of rose colors. I LOVE rose colored anything.

The back of the box has the description in two languages as well as what the box contains. 

" Get ready to experiment with 12 TOTALLY NEW (and insanely beautiful) rose-hued neutrals, ALL EXCLUSIVE to this set. Choose from every finish imaginable: ultra-smooth mattes, gorgeous pearls and glimmering metallics. From the palest, shimmery pink to the deepest black matte with reed micro-glitter (aptly named Blackheart), these neutrals will make you want to get Naked all over again. "

The back of the box also shows the shadows in the palette, the brush, as well as swatches of the sample Primer Potions. Each of them last for about a week of continuous use.

And of course, the Naked 3 Palette itself! The card like case next to it hold the four sample packs of the Primer Potions. I love the color of this palette so much! Such a pretty rose gold color. The ruffled look makes this palette look extra fancy. It's a metal case similar to the Naked 2, so it's quite durable.

SO PRETTY. Just like the Naked 2, this also comes with it's own mirror & eye shadow brush. The brush works well. My favorite half of this palette would definitely be the first half! Those rose tones are amazing. 

Now, I'm gonna show off each individual eye shadow in depth as well as a swatch.  Each swatch has Primer Potion under it. All descriptions are from the Urban Decay website.

Strange

Pale neutral pink matte-satin.

Dust

Pale metallic pink shimmer with iridescent micro-glitter.

Burnout

Light pinky-peach satin.

Limit

Light dusty rose matte.

Buzz

Metallic rose shimmer with silver micro-glitter.

Trick

Light metallic pinky-copper shimmer with tonal micro-sparkle.

Nooner

Medium pinky-brown matte.

Liar

Medium metallic mauve shimmer.

Factory

Pinky-brown satin.

Mugshot

Metallic taupe shimmer with slight pink shift.

Darkside

Deep taupe-mauve satin.

Blackheart

Smoky black matte with rosy red micro-sparkle.

Basically, this palette is made up off pink/rosy/taupe/brown colors. Seriously up my alley. I'm more than happy to have gotten this palette.

Some of the matte colors have a bit of fallout, but the quality of all the shadows are amazing. That's really all the "negative" things I have to say about this palette. It's literally perfect in my eyes. Urban Decay couldn't have chosen a better color to go with.

5/5

I can definitely see myself using this much more often than other palettes I have.

I actually went ahead & used most of the colors to create this eye look. If you want a tutorial, I'll try to remember which colors I used since it's been about a week or so since I took this photo. I love the eye shadows so much! 

Hope you've enjoyed this review!

Hope you're having a wonderful weekend. Stay warm & don't get sick!

What's In My Makeup Bag?

Hello again lovies. I decided since I bought myself a new makeup pouch, I would show you all the goodies I take with me on a daily basis. There's a lot in there since I don't want to be caught out somewhere without a certain thing I may need at the time. I'm super weird about that. ><;

This is pretty much what I have in my bag, minus the three items I will be showing at the end [ I forgot they were in my purse. I sometimes forget to put them back in the makeup pouch ].

Let's start with the face products.

From L - R:

Etude House Bling in The Sea Apricot Blusher

Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion

Etude House Sweet Recipe Cupcake All Over Color in Peach Sugar Cake

Benefit Watt's Up Mini Highlighter

Mai Couture Highlighter Paper 

Next is the lippies:

From L - R:

Etude House Rosy Tint Lips in #8 After Blossom

Tony Moly Petit Bunny Gloss Bar in #1 Strawberry

Carmex

Holika Holika Heartful Silky Lipstick in #SRD802 Lovely Vampire

My one eye product:

Holika Holika Magic Pole Mascara in Volume

For those "Just In-case" Moments:

La Fresh travel-lite Makeup Remover Wipes

My lens case:

Super convenient. I like to have this on me just in-case I need to remove the lenses when they get dry. It's Anna Sui inspired. 

I also have three other products I forgot to put in there when I took the photos:

Limecrime Velvetine in Pink Velvet

HSi Professional Argon Oil

One 'n Only Argan Oil Styling Cream

And lastly:

A few samples, for another just in-case moment.

My makeup bag is practically full with all these products! 

I just really thought this would be a pretty cool & informational post into what I would normally tag along with me on an everyday basis. 

I do hope you've enjoyed this!

Hope you have a wonderful day! <3

ACCESSORIES HAUL: Forever21, Charlotte Rousse, Ulta!

Beautiful babies!

Just posting a quick mini-haul of what I purchased today at the mall. I initially went in looking for a black lace dress for a Halloween party I'm attending this weekend, but decided some accessories would suffice & that I would find something out of my own clothes to wear. NIFTY!

Let's start with Forever21 !

I've been in search for some cute midi-rings for awhile & luckily, Forever21 now carries them. I bought the Hope bracelet bc I love the link chain SO MUCH!

Next, Charlotte Russe. I bought a ton of headbands! Thankfully they were having an accessory sale!

Cutie rose kitty ears.

Gold & diamond devil horns. Love these.

Spikes! I didn't know one was missing but it's a good thing I don't plan to wear this all the time!

Gold & Pearl kitty ears. I have to do work on this one as well. I might replace the pearls with other pearls. I've been looking for one of these forever. I can deal with fixing it up!

I don't quite know how to describe this headband. Definitely reminds me of the 50s.

Now lastly, Ulta!

Just picked up the lightest shade of foundation I could find for a "dead" look for tomorrow as well as some Urban Decay Setting Spray so my makeup doesn't go haywire in the middle of the party.

I might decide to do these more often when I'm able to go to the mall. I hope you'll enjoy these little posts!

lubyou!
