Makeup Haul

Jag har shoppat lite plånboksvänlig makeup som jag tänkte dela med mig av. Jag hittade lite roliga saker från bl.a. Wet n Wild som jag ville testa. Här i stans säljs detta, vad jag vet, endast på en av stormarknaderna. 


Wet n Wild
- Coloricon Blusher in Berry Shimmer
- MegaMix Bronzing Powder in Sun Touched
- Coloricon Eye Shadow Trio in Knock On Wood and Sweet As Candy

- MegaLast Liquid Lip Color, finns inget namn på den tyvärr, med det är en riktigt härlig hot pink. 
    Denna har jag använt ett par gånger och jag är otroligt positivt överraskad måste jag säga! Det är inte riktigt ett läppglans men inte heller ett läppstift. Färgen är väldigt intensiv och torkar till en matt finish. Med bara ett drag får man hur mycket färg som helst. Färgen sitter! Färgen sitter ordentligt! Jag hade på mig det i flera timmar utan att behöva touch up. Detta är en produkt som jag verkligen kan rekommendera till er lipstick/lipgloss lovers 

Rimmel
- Lasting Finish By Kate Moss Lipstick in no. 13
- Moisture Renew Lipstick in no. 180 Vintage Pink
- Lash Accelerator Mascara 
- Glam'Eyes Day 2 Night Mascara (opps...forgot both mascaras in the picture, my bad)

MaxFactor
- Max Effect Trio Eye Shadow in no. 3 Tigress

Glossybox - Januari


Hello ladies!

Nytt år, nya tag och en Fresh Start som Glossybox kallar månadens box!
Yes, årets första Glossybox har äntligen trillat ner i brevlådan. Jag såg fram emot månadens box lite extra denna gången för jag hade fått ett mail om att den skulle innehålla en face primer från märket Benefit som heter the POREfessional. Jag kan bara säga att jag älskar denna primer! Inte jättelätt att få tag på i eller till vårt avlånga land vad jag har hittat iallafall. Men för er som bor i Stockholm, Malmö, eller utomlands så säljs det på Sephora.

Nog babblat om det, nu till innehållet i min Glossybox!


//It's a new year and time for a Fresh Start as Glossybox calls this month's box! 
Yes, the first Glossybox of the year has finally dropped into my mailbox. I'd heard that the box would include the ultimate face primer this month, Benefit's POREfessional which made me extra excited! All I can say is that I love it! Like so many other nice things it's not very easy to get products from Benefit in or to Sweden (not that I know of). But for those of you living in Stockholm, Malmö, or abroad, it is sold at Sephora. 

Enough babbling, now to the content of my Glossybox!

Sorry for the poor quality of this picture

  • Benefit Cosmetics the POREfessional (love it!) Ansiktsprimer som minskar synligheten av porer och fina linjer 
  • Yves Rocher Elixir 79 Återaktiverar hudens energi och ger den ungdomlig lyster, full size

  • Sumita Brow Set (älskar saker tillyy brynen, ska bli spännande att testa) Brynvax som håller hårstråna på plats

Urban Decay Naked 3 palette - Review and Swatches

I have to say that I have the sweetest baby sis ever! As you could read a few days ago she got me an INGLOT eyeshadow palette for christmas - which I love! And last week she gave me another gift - the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette!! I've been trying to get a hold of it since the launch date, but getting things in Sweden or to Sweden can be pretty hard sometimes. We have a mutual friend that was on vacation in the States recently and my sis, knowing how much I wanted the new UD palette, called her and asked if she could look for it. So a BIG thank you to Ramta as well for actually looking for it and bringing it here. 
Much love to the both of you! 

Alright let's get started with this little review (a bit late, I know)
     First of all this palette is totaly different from the 2 previous Naked palettes which contains beautiful neutrals, brown and gold shades. Naked 3 comes with 12 all new eyeshadows in marvelous rose toned neutrals. 

Starting with the packaging, The Naked 3 palette has the same metal tin snap case packaging as the Naked 2 which is much more durable then the cardboard packaging that the the original Naked has. It includes a dual ended brush, a weeks worth of use of 4 of UDs primer posions - Original, Sin, Eden and Anti Aging which is really nice. 

As said, the palette comes with 12 brand new shades of rose toned neutrals, from light to dark, which contains three matte shades and nine shimmery shades. And as always the UB shadows are highly pigmented and easy to blend. With this palette you can easily create both daytime and night time looks.

from left: Nooner, Liar, Factory, Mugshot, Darkside, Blackheart
Urban Decay's description of the colours
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.”

My overall thoughts of the UB Naked 3 palette is that I love it! It's different from the previous two (which I really love too!), the colours and quality of the eyeshadows are exceptional.

MIA

Hello ladies!

Before my blogpost earlier today I was MIA for a long time and I apologize for that. During that time I did do a few looks for you guys but I just didn't find the time to sit down and write posts.

Here are a few of those looks, the thing is that I didn't take any notes on what products I used so that's why I can't to individual posts with that info, but maybe these pictures could be some kind of inspiration anyways.
