Virus Insanity

If the name Virus Insanity doesn't grab your attention, if you're like me and love eye shadows, the duo chrome eye shadows will!
I can't even remember how I came across this online store, but keep reading, and you'll see why I fell in love with them! The website is easy to navigate, and I really appreciate the fabulous photos that show the eye shadows applied to lids.
I know I am raving about the eye shadows, but there are also lip glosses, eye primer and nail polish (unfortunately these aren't shipped internationally from the US).

 Without further ado, I will move on to the swatches



Caramel Machiatto- Bronze neutral shimmer.


Ira- Wine shimmer


Shenanigans- Purple with green shift. The green shift is visible in the next pic.




Stupid Cupid- Pink with a coral to bronze shift. None of my pics could do this gorgeous shadow justice, check out the link to see this lovely colour!



Invidia- Red velvet.



Princess- Pink with purple shimmer.



Techno- Peach with holographic shimmer.



Plaid and Rad- Lime green.


Pear Cobbler- Champagne shimmer.


Afterglow- Shimmery light taupe


Jasper- Golden green shimmer.
As you can see the samples are in clam shells, which I am not a fan of, but quickly forgot then when swatching the beautiful shadows.




For this look, I used Stupid Cupid on the lid, outer lid is Shenanigans. Caramel Machiatto on my browbone, and crease/lower lashline is Ira.




Here I have Pear Cobbler on my lid with Afterglow on my browbone and Jasper in my crease.

 These eye shadows are lovely to work with. They are well pigmented and adhere well. I need Pear Cobbler, such a simple colour, yet beautiful and quite flattering. 
Virus Insanity have some insanely gorgeous eye shadows! :)

      They're definitely worth trying, Sarah, even if it is just some samples.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
