Stocktake 2017- Eyes Part 2

I am so obsessed with eye shadow palettes, I decided that they deserved a post of their own.

 Ok, here goes, I'll begin with photos of mixed brands.




These palettes are palettes that I have created, brands being Makeup Geek, JD Glow Cosmetics, MBA Cosmetics, Venemous Cosmetics. The black palettes are loose pigments that I have pressed.

MUA Cosmetics, 2 of them being palettes I made out of CD cases and filled with single pressed eye shadows.

Sleek eye shadow palettes.


BH Cosmetics palettes

Makeup Revolution palettes, including my obsession with their I Heart Chocolate palettes.

...and last but not least my Urban Decay eye shadow palettes.

Ok, it seems that I have a problem when it comes to eye shadow palettes. They are my vice, but they make me happy. I love to pull them all out and admire them from time to time. Is that weird?

In 2015 I had 127 palettes, I now have 96. It's still a considerable amount but I only want to keep the palettes that I love. Mind you, there's still plenty that I have only swatched and not tried on my lids. I plan to change that. What I don't plan on doing is not buying any more. 

Speaking of makeup, what is your obsession?

    Ha, mine (as you may know) is collecting nail polish. I too just like to stare longingly at my stash & my swatches from time to time....and also go browsing online for more polishes to add to my wishlist. It's terrible since I only wear the stuff when I cba painting (I haven't painted them for weeks since tearing one of my nails :o() + I have a whole bunch of others still waiting to be opened, but I can't help but want all the pretties!

    I have the essence Vampires Love Palette that you have in your first pic. I dont know how many palettes i have but no where near as many as you have. I do have a lot of singles and duos and a few trios. I love my eye shadows and always feel naked if my eyes are not done....so no matter what they are done daily and if not its a sign that im seriously sick...LOL

    Your collection is enviable! I love the Sleek ones, so I have about 4/5 of those, but that's my maximum of one brand x

    Oh man, I thought my 20-something eyeshadow palette collection was a bit much. My weakness is LIPSTICKS. I probably have a few hundred of them (no shame...sorta).

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...
