Violet Voss Essentials 2 Palette | Makeup

Violet Voss Essentials 2 Palette | Makeup


It happened! If you seen my blog on Violet Voss Essentials palette then you know I had plans of getting this one already, but I actually got this one in a Boxycharm too like the first one! I fell in love with the first one. The color story was cute and the formula was amazing! I can say so far with this one I haven't loved it as much as the first, but I'm still pretty happy with it. From the packaging I guess I was hoping for more. I mean all these shades are beautiful, but I could do with less of the neutrals in these smaller palettes especially when the cover is really vibing with the pink, purple, and blue moments. It could have been much more into that category besides just 4 shades. There is even a rose gold, while it is gorgeous, it doesn't go with this palette theme to me. I have a harder time thinking of looks with this one and you would know from past times I get frustrated when I feel that way. The actual pink, purple, and blue moments are beautiful! The formula on the other hand seems the same to me and I enjoy it. The mattes are easy to blend and the metallics give a beautiful shine. They aren't my all time favorites, but still I feel these are slept on for how good they are. The metallics have some different consistencies. A couple of them are nice ones that have a lot of pigment like regular metallic shades. The formula isn't dry, but isn't the most buttery either. The payoff is still there. A couple others are a light iridescent moment that doesn't offer as much pigment, but nonetheless still gorgeous, and finally the other metallics are "barely there" moments that offer a color, but can be applied light or built up. I don't have a lot of shadows like that in my collection so I really enjoy those. Again I prefer the first one better, but these are cute little palettes. This one has 4 mattes and 6 others that are the different metallics. I can say these don't swatch amazingly (I still wanted to show the shades swatched), but perform much better on the actual eyes with brushes! Have you tried Violet Voss shadows? xo


Swatches left to right: Beige, Clay, Rose Gold, Chocolate Brown, Bronze, Wild Orchid, Blue Violet, Aqua, Blue Sky, & Copper.

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder \\ Skincare

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder \\ Skincare Pineapple Exfoliating Powder I was so skeptical about this product. I mean it is a super fine powder that is suppose to exfoliate my skin. It is a super fine powder, but it still does the trick! While being extremely gentle to the skin the natural starch and silk powder exfoliates your skin removing dead skin build up and surface build up in pores. On top of that it will leave your skin glowing with the 3-0 ethyl ascorbic acid from all the fruit extracts in this. It has not only pineapple, but also kiwi and papaya! What's even better (that I have absolutely loved!) is that this is made without microbeads, nuts, or anything that will be too harsh and could potentially scratch the surface of your skin.  While being super gentle it will also leave your skin soothed and calm with the calamine powder and allantoin that is in it too.  Sorry I sound like an infomercial in these blogs. I just want all the info out there for you w...

Black Moon Cosmetics Lip Trio | Makeup

  Mini Moon Liquid to Matte Nude Trio (Deep/Dark) I was happy to make another purchase from the indie brand, Black Moon Cosmetics . I bought the Urban Myth palette last fall and fell in love with it! The brand has since caught my attention over and over with it's clever packaging, overall asethetic, and unique shades. And not just with eyeshadow but with lipsticks as well. Their shade range in lip products are so cool and the packaging is beautiful. I have to say I'm still usually on the fence about trying new liquid lipsticks. To be honest, I feel I have found formulas/brands that work for me and that I know wear amazingly and feel comfortable (not too drying) and I've stuck to those when buying new shades. So it put me off for awhile until I seen them advertise these adorable tin moon holders. At first I seen them and thought of decor, they were so cute! I recently redecorated my filming setup and was in the market for little trinkets that caught my attenion and this one...
