Summer Lovin :)

Hi 😀 Today I’ve got a fun, summery look for you lovelies! ❤ When I bought my Sugarpill Heart Breaker palette, I also had to get three chromalusts: Birthday Girl, Absinthe and Decora. I’m using Birthday Girl and Decora (pinks) in this look, (SO beautiful colors!) 😉 I’m also using the Sugarpill Cosmetics false lashes in Flutter, which are my favorite falsies!! 😀 Don’t they look fierce?! ❤ I hope you enjoy this look and the tutorial!

Products I’ve used:

  • Lime Crime – Candy eyed eyeshadow helper
  • NYX – Jumbo eye pencil in Milk
  • Sugarpill – Loose eyeshadow in Birthday Girl
  • Sugarpill – Loose eyeshadow in Magentric
  • Sugarpill – Loose eyeshadow in Decora
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Acidberry
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Midori
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Tako
  • Sugarpill – False lashes in Flutter
  • Too Faced – Brow envy kit
  • L’Oreal – Super Liner in Carbon Gloss
  • Maybelline – One by one mascara
  • Rhinestones from Ebay
  • DUO – Eyelash adhesive

How to:

1. Apply primer and then NYX Jumbo pencil in Milk, all over the eye area. Place a piece of tape at the outer corner of your eye, to get a sharp line there. Apply a light/medium pink (Birthday Girl) at the inner 1/3 of the lid.

2. Continue from Birthday Girl to an other pink (Decora), and then place a darker pink (Magentric) in the outer corner. Blend these colors together. Try to get the shape that you see in the picture.

3. Remove the tape and apply a vibrant, lime green (Acidberry) at the inner part of your lower lash line. From the middle of the lower lash line, place a medium green (Midori) and kind of wing it out, higher up than the pink. Use a small, precise shadow brush for this. Apply a white highlight (Tako) to the inner corner of your eye and on your brow bone.

4. Apply NYX Milk on your lower waterline and set it with Tako. Apply liquid liner, close to your upper lash line and wing it out. Place some pink gems beside the green outwing, with eyelash glue. Apply some fabulous false lashes and mascara, and you’re done! 😀

Have a fantastic day!

Hi sweethearts! Today’s my birthday, so I thought I’d do a special and more crazy look for you guys! 😉 I love Nicki Minaj’s music, style and of course, makeup! When I listen to her song “Starships”, this look pops up in my head and I just had to do it! As you can see, it’s just an inspired look, not one that she actually wears in the video! 🙂 It’s a rainbow look with lots of stars, which I hope you’ll like! ❤

Products used:

  • Lime Crime – Candy eyed eyeshadow helper

The names of the eyeshadows, from the inner to the outer corner: 2AM, Unicorn, Neptune, Poolside, Midori, Buttercupcakes, Manderine and Razzleberry. (Check the product list to see which brands they’re from.) 🙂 I used Sugarpill’s loose eyeshadow in Stella, wet, to create the stars. ^-^

I hope you are having a wonderful day so far! ❤ Mine has been filled with too much cake and cookies… Love it! 😀

Sugarpill Cosmetics, Heart Breaker palette – Review!

Posted on by
23

Hi lovelies! Now I’ve tried Sugarpill’s newest palette for a while and I’m loving it! ❤ I thought I’d tell you a bit about it today, show some swatches and compare the shadows to other eyeshadows. 🙂

The packaging is super pretty and cute, like all the other Sugarpill packaging. The palette itself has a blue cover this time, compared to the two other palettes in the Addicted to pretty collection, ”Sweet Heart” and ”Burning Heart”, which have a pink one. ^-^

The palette contains 4 colors, called Acidberry, Velocity, 2AM and Mochi. They are very vibrant, pigmented and to blend with these colors is super easy!

Here are the swatches I took of the eyeshadows. I’ve built up the colors in the pictures, so that you can see their full potencial! In the first picture, I’ve used a primer and in the second one, I haven’t:

With primer:

Without primer:

As you can see, there’s not a huge difference! I use primer in every look anyway, but I thought I’d show you how amazing the quality of these are, even without one! 😉

Acidberry is a bright, matte lime color, with slightly pearl sheen. This one is the least pigmented out of all of these eyeshadows, but it’s my favorite! The color is just so beautiful and vibrant and as you can see from the swatches, when you build them all up, Acidberry is equally as strong and good as the other colors! 😀

Velocity is the perfect royal blue! It’s a matte, bright eyeshadow! ❤

2AM is a matte, medium purple eyeshadow, with some pearl sheen to it. The color is kind of a mixture between Sugarpill’s Poison Plum and Dollipop, which i like, because it makes it blend very well in with these two!

Mochi is a light aqua, turquise color, which also has a slightly pearl sheen to it. It is matte and the most pigmented shadow in the palette. I think it’s a very unique color, because I’ve never seen one just like it! I’ve compared it with a few colors in this review, but they’re not super close to the color.

Here are a few comparisons:

These are the lime green eyeshadows that I have and I thought I’d compare Acidberry with the other two. Fuji and Acidberry are the most pigmented and as you can see, Acidberry is the most vibrant one out of them all.

Royal Sugar is my absolute favorite eyeshadow, and Velocity is a matte version of it. Very beautiful! ❤ I’ve also compared it to Sugarpill’s Afterparty, if you wanted to see the difference between them. 🙂 The MUG eyeshadow in Neptune can be a dupe for Velocity. MAC’s Marine Ultra pigment is also very close, but it’s a bit powdery and not as pigmented.

The closest eyeshadow I have to 2AM is Makeup Mekka’s shadow in Fetish. But 2AM is slightly darker and has a matte texture. The NYX color in the picture is from my NYX box of eyeshadows and doesn’t have a name.

These eyeshadows aren’t too similar to Mochi, but they were the closest ones I had. Here you can see what a light and beautiful aqua, turquoise color it is! ❤

Here’s a look I did, using all of the colors in the palette:

All in all I’m very happy with this palette! From my personal taste, these colors are perfect! And I know I will be using them a lot, like I do with the other Sugarpill eyeshadows! If I’m going to compare them to Sugarpill’s other two palettes, they are just as pigmented, only lighter than the other shadows. Poison Plum, Love+ and Dollipop are slightly more pigmented though!

The eyeshadows are cruelty free and Acidberry, Mochi and Velocity are vegan as well. Each shadow contains 4 grams/ 0,14 oz of product. The palette costs 34 $ at www.sugarpillshop.com and you can also get the eyeshadows individually for 12 $ each. I think the price of the palette is great, because of the amazing quality and how much product you get! 😀

I hope this review was helpful! ❤

Oh sweet glitter! ^-^

Hello lovelies! ❤ I feel like it has been  a while since I used some glitter in a look! :O I’ve truly missed it! 😉 So here’s one, using TheNailDazzle glitter as usual. Purple and yellow look sooo pretty together, and makes the whole look very bright and fun! I’ve made a little tutorial as well, if you want to know how to create it!

Products used:

  • Lime Crime – Candy Eyed eyeshadow helper
  • NYX – Jumbo eye pencil in Milk
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in 2AM
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Poison Plum
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Buttercupcake
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Tako
  • Sugarpill – False eyelashes in Sinnocent
  • Makeup Geek – Eyeshadow in Manderine
  • Makeup Geek – Eyeshadow in Ice Queen
  • The Nail Dazzle – Acrylic in Lemon Drop
  • NYX – Glitterati Glitter Cream palette
  • L’Oreal – Super Liner in Carbon Gloss
  • Maybelline – One by One mascara
  • Too Faced – Brow envy kit

How to:

1. I started off by applying primer and NYX Milk all over the eye area. Then, I cut my crease with a tiny eyeshadow brush, using a medium purple (2AM). I blended the color upward and into the outer v area. Underneath the brow and in the inner corner of the eye, I placed a matte, white highlight (Tako).

2. Here I used a darker purple (Poison Plum) to deepen up the crease. I blended this in with the lighter purple. These to colors look amazingly good together!! I’m definitely going to use this combination some more! 😉 I also placed some Poison Plum on the outer half of my lower lid.

3. Next, I applied a bright yellow, (Buttercupcake), on the lid. This is the base color for the glitter. Then, I applied a yellow glitter cream over the eyeshadow. I put a shimmery white in the inner corner of the eye and on the brow bone, (Ice Queen).

4. I pressed on the glitter over the glitter cream. And since there are small, orange stars in the glitter, I decided to use some orange, (Manderine), on the inner half of my lower lid. Then, I applied white to my waterline, a black liquid liner, mascara and some gorgeous false lashes. All done! 😀

I hope you liked the look!

Hello sweethearts! 😀 I know I have one exam left, but yesterday I got these beauties from Makeup Geek in the mail, and I just couldn’t resist making a look! 😉

Later last night I also picked up my new Sugarpill palette, their new palette called Heart Breaker! 😀 So I can’t wait until my exam is finished, so I can have fun and make lots and lots of looks! ^-^ Here’s the look I made, using the lovely MUG eyeshadows! ❤

Products used:

I love the Makeup Geek eyeshadows so much! They’re just so pigmented, soft and beautiful! ❤ I thought these brown, bronze and red colors looked very good together, so I decided to put them all in a smoky look. 🙂 I’ve actually used a gel liner, in stead of a liquid one, this time! 😉 I also blended the liner a bit out with MUG’s black eyeshadow “Corrupt”, to give it a more smoky effect!

I hope you liked the look and as soon as I’m done with the exam next week, I’ll start blogging more regularly again! 🙂 You can check out my Facebook page if you want to, where I have albums of all my looks, and where I share other looks and pages that inspire me. ❤

Hello lovelies! 😀 Summer is finally approaching, so now I can wear tons of those beautiful, bright summery colors! ❤ This look I wore this weekend, for a friends birthday celebration.

3. Take a darker blue than Poolside (Neptune) and blend it in to your crease and outer v area. Also, blend it up toward your brow. Use a matte, white highlight color (Tako) on your brow bone and blend it down, slightly in with the blue. Apply the same white to the inner corner of your eye.

4. Place your crease color in the outer corner of your lower lid, Poolside in the middle and Fuji closest to the inner corner. Blend these colors together.

Spring Leopard Nails!

Posted on by
25

Hi guys! ^-^ I know I haven’t posted as many looks as I usually do, these last two weeks, because I’m trying to focus on reading for my exams. I’m going to try to at least make one makeup look a week though! 😉 I haven’t worn makeup in two weeks, so my hands are itching for my colorful eyeshadows, lol 😛 I can’t wait for June to come… Then I’ll do lots and lots of looks! 😀 I just thought I’d let you know what’s going on. 🙂

Anyway, wearing pretty nail colors has gotten me through these “non- makeup weeks.” xD I’ve been obsessed with my Julie G nail polishes, as you might have noticed! I made this design on my sister last week, with the colors she liked the best, and I had to try it myself. I made a quick tutorial as well, which I hope you find helpful! ^-^

Products used:

  • Sally Hansen – Complete Care 4-in-1 nail treatment
  • Julie G – Gelato in Venice
  • Julie G – Bikini
  • Viva la Diva – Nr. 53, Black
  • Seche Vite – Dry fast top coat
  • Toothpicks

How to:

Apply a base coat and when that’s dry, one thick coat of “Gelato in Venice.”

Place some of “Bikini” onto a sheet of paper and pick some of the color up, with a toothpick. Create different sized and shaped dots, with that hot pink.

Now, put some black colored nail polish onto the paper. Pick a little bit up with a new toothpick. Carefully make some black strokes on each side of the pink dots and make them all in different sizes. Every leopard has an unique pattern, so the design doesn’t have to be geometrically perfect! In the end, place some small, random dots of black in between the pink dots. Wait at least an hour, before you apply a top coat. 🙂

This is a very easy design, which I think anyone can do! I’m right handed, so I know it would have been difficult to apply the black on my right hand. I always get my boyfriend to do this on that hand and I must say he does a great job, (otherwise, I wouldn’t have worn it out, lol 😉 ) So get someone else to do that for you, if you find it difficult! ^-^

I bought the JulieG nail polishes at jessesgirlcosmetics.com 🙂

I hope you liked this nail design!

Fun French! :D

Hi lovelies! ❤ On friday, I finally got my 6 JulieG nail polishes, that I’ve been super excited about trying! 😀 One my favorite beauty gurus on youtube, Julieg713, just launched her own nail polish line. After seeing the amazing colors she made, I had to get some of them! I bought them at www.jessesgirlcosmetics.com 🙂

I thought the two colors “Fierce & Fab” and “Dream in Pretty” looked very good together, so I made a colorful French manicure. I also added some rhinestones to the ring finger, to spice up the design! 😉

Products used:

  • Sally Hansen – Complete care 4-in-1 nail treatment
  • JulieG – Dream in Pretty nail polish
  • JulieG – Fierce and Fab nail polish
  • Seche Vite – Dry fast top coat
  • Rhinestones from ebay

In daylight, these two colors look pink, but in bathroom lighting they look lilac and purple. You can see the difference from the pictures above. When they look purple, I think they match my “Purple Love” look, that I did a couple of months ago. That’s just a tip to what kind of makeup you can wear with this nail design! ^-^

I can’t wait to show you the rest of the colors I got from this nail polish line. I’ve been wearing this since friday and it just started chipping today. Usually, the nail polishes I’ve had, have started chipping the next day, so these are fabulous! 😀

I hope you enjoyed the nail polish design!

Prom in Glitter!

Posted on by

Prom is that special day when you can dress up like a princess and of course, wear fabulous makeup! 😉 It’s a day where you deserve to sparkle a little extra, so glitter is definitely a must! 😀 This is a look I would wear for prom and I actually did a similar look on my sister, for her prom, last year. I hope this look will give you some inspiration on how you want your prom look to be! ^-^

I entered this look in Makeupbee’s “Sparkle for prom” competition, and if you like it, I would be super happy if you could vote for it, here! ❤ Thank you SO much! Let me know if you’ve entered a look to the competition too! 😀

Products used:

  • Lime Crime – Candy eyed eyeshadow helper
  • NYX – Jumbo eye pencil in Milk
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Tako
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Dollipop
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Poison Plum
  • Sugarpill – False eyelashes in Spark
  • Makeup Geek – Corrupt eyeshadow
  • Barry M – Eyeshadow trio (light silver)
  • NYX – Glitterati Glitter Cream Palette
  • NYX – Glitter on the go in Disco Ball
  • L’Oreal – Super Liner in Carbon Gloss
  • Maybelline – One by One mascara
  • Too Faced – Brow envy kit

How to:

Step 1: Apply a primer to your entire eye area. Place NYX Milk to your brow bone and the inner corner of your eye. Cut your crease with a small angled brush, slightly above your natural crease. Use a bright pink color, (Dollipop).

Step 2: Use the same color and blend it up towards your brow bone and underneath your eye.

Step 3: Take a dark purple (Poison Plum) and place it along your cut crease and lower lash line. Blend it in with the pink.

Step 4: Apply a tiny bit of a matte black eyeshadow (Corrupt) to your fake crease. Blend it upwards and connect it with your lower lash line as well.

Step 5: Then apply some more black to the same area and focus on the blending. I applied a little black at a time, to make sure that I didn’t use too much black, because that might have ruined the whole blending process!

Step 6: Apply a shimmery silver shadow to your lid, as a base color for the glitter. Then cover that with a silver NYX glitter cream or an other glitter base. Apply a silver glitter on top, by packing it on, to get the least amount of fallout! Line your upper lash line with a liquid liner and apply mascara.

All that’s left to do, is to apply white to your lower water line, with an eye pencil and apply some gorgeous false eyelashes! 😉

I hope this tutorial was helpful and that you liked the look!

Easter Chicken! :P

Posted on by

Easter is not quite over yet, right?! I’m taking advantage of that and posting an other yellow, colorful look! 😀 I made this over a week ago, but I was a little bit uncertain about the eyemakeup! But since I worked so hard, making these feathers, I thought I’d post it anyway! 😉 I’m actually happier with the end result than I thought I would be! 😀 I hope you like it! ❤

Products I used:

  • Lime Crime – Candy eyed eyeshadow helper
  • NYX – Jumbo eye pencil in Yellow
  • NYX – Jumbo eye pencil in Milk
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Tako
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Dollipop
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Buttercupcake
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Flamepoint
  • TheNailDazzle – Glitter eyes in Lemone’
  • L’Oreal – Super Liner in Carbon Gloss
  • Maybelline – One by One mascara
  • False lashes and rhinestones from ebay
  • Feathers from a local store

How to:

Step 1: Cover your brows with NYX Jumbo eye pencil in Yellow. Set it with a yellow shadow (Buttercupcake).

Step 2: Make small feathers by cutting some large ones with scissors. Glue them to your eyebrows with eyelash glue. Then, cover the ends of the feathers with some yellow rhinestones.

Step 3: Cut your crease with a bright pink (Dollipop), and blend the color upwards. Blend in a bright orange (Flamepoint), in between the pink and the feathers. Apply a white highlight (Tako) to the inner corner of your eye.

Step 4: Apply the yellow eyeshadow to your lid as well, as a base color for the glitter. Then, cover this with a glitter base.

Step 5: Gently press a beautiful, light yellow glitter onto your lid. Connect the crease color with the lower lash line. Apply the pink first and then blend it out with the orange.

Step 6: Create a winged out liner, with a liquid eyeliner. That’s the easiest type of liner to use over glitter.

The final step is to apply white to your waterline, mascara to your lower lashes and some gorgeous falsies! 😉

I hope you had an amazing Easter! ❤

Here’s an other Easter inspired look! 😀 I’m using mostly TheNailDazzle and Sugarpill products, which I love! ❤ To use a little glitter on the eyebrows is of course a must! 😉 I hope you like it! ^-^

Products I used:

  • Lime Crime – Candy eyed eyeshadow helper
  • NYX – Jumbo eye pencil in Milk
  • NYX – Jumbo eye pencil in Yellow
  • The Nail Dazzle – Mineral Eyes in Aprodithe (lid: left)
  • The Nail Dazzle – Mineral Eyes in Immature (lid: middle)
  • The Nail Dazzle – Mineral Eyes in Green Isle (lid: right)
  • The Nail Dazzle – Glitter Eyes in Lemone’
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Tako
  • Sugarpill – Pressed eyeshadow in Buttercupcake
  • Sugarpill – Induvidual false eyelashes in Whisper
  • L’Oreal – Super Liner in Carbon Gloss
  • False lashes from ebay

I thought it would be fun to add some yellow, individual lashes in between the black false lashes! And I think that little extra, completed the look! 😀

I hope you’re having a wonderful Easter Saturday!

11 Questions Tag! :)

Posted on by
12

I got tagged by Lisanne and Kassie to answer these fun questions! 😀 Since I was so lucky to get tagged by both of these lovely ladies, I decided to answer half of their questions. ^-^

The rules of the tag:

  1. Each tagged person must answer the 11 questions given to them by their “tagger” and post it on their blog.
  2. Then, choose 11 new people to tag and link them in your post.
  3. Create 11 new questions for the people you tag to answer.
  4. Go to their page and tell them they’ve been tagged!
  5. Do not tag back to the person who has already tagged you.

My answers:

When did your love for beauty/nailpolish/pretty sparkly stuff begin?

I’ve always loved beautiful, sparkly things! When I was little (3 – 8 years old) I loved dressing up, wearing flowery dresses, red lipstick and matching nailpolish! As probably most girls, I wanted to be a princess! 😛 Okay, here I wanted to be a hula hula girl, haha! xD

If you could only use one monochromatic set of colors of eyeshadow what would it be? I.e. only shades of blue.

For everyday use, I would say corals and for more artsy makeup, blue! 😀

Do you prefer playing with eyeshadow, lipstick or nail polish?

As you’ve probably noticed, I prefer playing with eyeshadow, but I love to have fun with different nail designs and lip colors as well!

The most rewarding thing about blogging for you?

The most rewarding thing is definitely all the positive and sweet feedback I get from my readers! I just love reading all the comments, talk to people and get to know other beauty junkies, with the same interests as I! Also, blogging drives me to get better at what I love doing! And when I hear that I’ve inspired someone, I get beyond happy! I’m just very thankful to have my blog, with all these lovely readers! ❤

Do you prefer indie companies or cooperate companies to buy your makeup from?

I love indie companies, like Sugarpill, Makeup Geek and Lime Crime. These are the brands I use the most. They’ve got cheaper products than most cooperate companies and at the same time, their products are both more pigmented and beautiful! 😉

What’s your favourite movie or tv show?

My favorite tv show right now, is Once upon a time! 🙂 I like a lot of movies, especially romantic comedies! I saw “The change up” last week, which I thought was hilarious! 😀

If you had to listen to one genre of music for the rest of your life, what genre would you choose?

Probably hip hop, since I love dancing to that type of music! And I need to dance! ❤

Do the people around you get your love for make-up? How do they respond when they find you squeeling over something beauty related?

Yes, I feel like they do! Both my family and friends are interested in and supports me in what I do. Even my dad stares at what I’m doing when I create a crazy makeup look, haha! 😀 They also find it normal when I get very excited about something beauty related! 😉

What’s your biggest make-up fail from the past?

Not blending well enough! 😛

What’s the beauty product you just can’t live without?

NYX Jumbo eye pencil in Milk! It just brightens up every eyeshadow, you can use it as a primer and on your waterline! I use this in almost every single makeup look! 😀

Favorite band/muscician?

Not exactly hip hop hehe, but right now, it’s Marina and the diamonds. ^-^ I just discovered her about 2 weeks ago and now I’m hooked on “Primadonna Girl”, “Oh No” and “Shampain”. 😀

I’m tagging:

Review – Sugarpill Cosmetics Chromalusts!

Posted on by
11

I’ve had some time to try out my newest Sugarpill chromalusts, so now I’m of course reviewing them! 😀 I already have a review on the Sugarpill palettes and 5 other loose eyeshadows, here!

The packaging of the Chromalusts is very cute, like the rest of the Sugarpill packaging. They come in a jar, where you can see the Sugarpill logo on the lid and the name of the shadow, underneath the jar.

Here are the 7 loose eyeshadows I’m reviewing today:

Swatches, (with a primer) :

Lumi is a shimmery white with lots of tiny turquoise sparkles! It’s very pretty as a highlight,but you can also use it on the lid or over any matte color, to make it shimmery. If you apply this shadow over a dark base, you will get a beautiful, shimmery blue color! Weight: 6 grams

Starling is a beautiful medium blue, with a metallic sheen to it! Weight: 4,5 grams.

Magentric is a deep magenta color, with a shimmery, metallic finish. It also has a pretty, turquoise sheen to it! Weight: 4 grams.

 Tipsy is a gorgeous green, with a shimmery finish! Weight: 4,5 grams.
Hysteric is a metallic, shimmery, purple color, with beautiful turquoise and green sparkles! Weight: 5 grams.

Goldilux! I just have to say “Wow!” You wont fin a more amazing color! It’s one of my favorite colors of all time! It’s a metallic, true gold, which is super vibrant, bright and shimmery! The first time I swatched this color, my jaw dropped and my eyes saw glitter, stars and sparkles! *-* It’s just SO pretty! I like to use it everywhere: on the lid, the lower waterline, as an eyeliner, on my brows and my lips! You can even use it as a body shimmer! 😀 Weight: 5 grams.

Stella is a very vibrant, black shadow, with lots of gorgeous rainbow sparkles to it! This is perfect for a black smokey eye or as a liner! 😉 Weight: 4,5 grams.
Overall, I love all of the colors! ❤ The pigmentation of these is just brilliant! They’re super vibrant, smooth and are very easy to blend! Remember to pack the colors onto the lid, instead of swiping them, so you don’t get any fall out with these loose eyeshadows! 🙂

The reason why the weight varies from each chromalust, is that they fill the jars to the top and some shadows are fluffy, while others are more dense!

As you can see from the packaging, these shadows are cruelty free and vegan! 🙂 Each of these beauties costs 12 $, which I think is a good price for the amount of product you get. They’ll last you forever! I’ve used them a lot, but they don’t even look used! xD You can get them at www.sugarpill.net and they ship internationally! 😀

Some of my looks, using these Sugarpill chromalusts:

 I hope you found this review helpful!

Today, I got a package from Kayla, the sweet owner of TheNailDazzle Cosmetics. 🙂 As you might have seen, I’ve used a lot of TND glitters and some eyeshadows, in my makeup looks. Now, I got lots of mineral eyeshadows to try out, that I can’t wait to play with! I just swatched them all and they’re super gorgeous! 😀 The colors and pigmentation is amazing! I’m going to create some looks with these first and eventually write a review on both eyeshadows and glitters. ^-^

Swatches of some of my favorite shadows. (Aren’t they pretty? 🙂 )

From the left: The Real Problem, Cosmic, Fell in Love, Blue Days, Aphrodite, Break-a-Pipe and New York. 🙂

Check out and like TND’s Facebook page! They often have fun contest, where you can win their products! 😀

This was just a little haul for your lovelies, that I hope you enjoyed! ^-^ Have a magnificent weekend!
