Palette Appreciation- Designer Brands Bold Palette

I'd heard many raves about this palette, but Designer Brands isn't readily available where I live, so I was resigned to being without the Bold Palette. Well, you can imagine how happy and grateful I was when the wonderful Kris from Hissycat Krissy kindly offered me the opportunity to buy her back up one, she was generous enough to even send it to me free of charge.

The case is quite sturdy, would be great for travel.

Look at all those gorgeous shades, can you see why I wanted it so badly?

I love that you can have a lot of fun with these shades, yet, there's some muted tones as well for when you're not feeling as adventurous.

Well, if you're still reading after all those pics, thanks for staying :)

 I wouldn't say that these are the best eye shadow I've ever used, but for such a cheap price tag, the pigment is great, so a little bit of crumbling was worth the pay-off.

    Hey babe, STILL one of my favourite palettes, although mine is getting pretty long in the tooth now ha ha. I sneaked a peek at all your fabulous looks on my phone on the way home on Tuesday, but they look even more stunning on my big screen ♥ I just love how there's choices of similar colours in this kit, some more shimmery than others. The first purple one is stunning with your eye colour hon, but I reckon the pink and gold one is the winner - it's a delicious combo I've never tried! But then the aqua is so dreamy, as is the last autumn mix. Oh heck I can't decide - love 'em all xxx

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...
