FOTD with My Darling Naked Palette

Hello Ladies,

I love UD Naked Palette so much that sometimes it is hard to go back to the bright world of colors. And yet I succumb to its charms day after day, without even missing my darling Sleek palettes. Today is no exception. 

 I'm a little unhappy with my lips, but I think it is because of the flash. In real life the lip liner wasn't as visible. Maybe it is really ok, and I'm just making a fuss over nothing but I really don't like the look of lip liner being different from lipstick (even if they are in similar colors).

 I think this eyebrow shade looks much better than here (I used the lightest one) but I am still not entirely happy with it.  I don't know why really, since it's not like I am a natural redhead anyways... I think I want the shade to be in between NYX brow powder and this... but if I mix them together, it would be too dark.

Face:

• Covergirl & Olay Simply Ageless Serum Primer.
• Covergirl NatureLuze Foundation in 310 Flax.
• Maybelline FitMe Concealer in 15 Fair.
• Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder in Transparent.
• GOSH Brow Kit - used Light because I'm trying all the colors.
• Collection 2000 Shimmer & Shade as blush.

Eyes:

• URBAN DECAY Primer Potion in Eden.
• UD Naked Palette - used Sin on the brow bone, Sidecar on the lid and Hustle on the crease.
• Covergirl LashBlast Fusion Mascara in Black.

Lips:

• Maybelline Moisture Extreme lipstick in Berry Sorbet.

What do you think? Are you as obsessed with Naked Palette as I am?

Silent Treatment FOTD

Hello Ladies, 


For the past few days I've been in love with Wet n Wild Silent Treatment ColorIcon palette, and here is FOTD using it. I have to say something about photos, since they look different to my usual photos. My husband took these, outside using no flash. So although the colors don't look quite so bright, I think this is a pretty good representation of how it looks in 'real  life'. 

Face:

• Covergirl & Olay Simply Ageless Serum Primer.
• Covergirl NatureLuze Foundation in 310 Flax.
• Maybelline FitMe Concealer in 15 Fair.
• Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder in Transparent.
• GOSH Brow Kit - used Medium because I'm trying all the colors.
• Collection 2000 Shimmer & Shade as blush.

Eyes:

• URBAN DECAY Primer Potion in Eden.
• Wet n Wild ColorIcon palette Silent Treatment.
• Covergirl LashBlast Fusion Mascara in Black.

Lips: 

• Maybelline Moisture Extreme lipstick in Sweet Ginger.
 

I'm in a serious need of hair cut and new color. For some reason my hairdresser is refusing to cut my hair as short as I want, I think I need a new hairdresser lol.

I actually followed the instruction on palette (for once) and used all 3 colors as instructed. My eyebrows are too dark, but that's because I'm trying out different colors from GOSH Brow Kit.

I didn't wear any eyeliner but I rather like the look because it is not my usual style. :)

What do you think?  Have you tried any of the Wet n Wild ColorIcon palettes?

My Nail Polish Collection

Hello Ladies,

Some of you might have noticed that I never have any nail polish posts. The reason for that is because I get my nails done every 3 weeks with gel, and the only time I use nail polish is to paint my toe nails. I'm sure most of you will prefer not see photos of my feet lol, so as a result I choose not to do any nail polish posts.

However, that doesn't mean I don't have any :) My collection is by any means as large as some I've seen, but it slowly but surely increases. This is how it looks right now. I've realized that I'm missing about 5 polishes, but I can't find them anywhere :( I'll add them as soon as I locate them.

- Sally Hansen Instan-Dri Fast Dry Nial Color in 20 Pronto Purple - I love the big brushes, they make it so much easier to apply.

- CoverGirl Boundless Color Nail Polish in 555 Luxe Lilac - I think this is one of the first polishes I got. I always seem to go for 'safe' light colors as my first, since I'm so TERRIBLE at applying nail polish.

- Eyeko Lilac Polish - got it as free with purchase. I have to admit that I haven't used it yet.......


- Eyeko Rain Polish for City Nails - free with purchase too. I actually really like the color, but I'm not too impressed with how it just peels off. Maybe it has something to do with the undercoat I'm applying?

- Barry M Nail Paint in 294 Cyan Blue - it is a lot darker on the nail than it appears in the bottle.

- Barry M Nail Paint in 309 Strawberry I/C - pretty pink :)

- Barry M Nail Effects in Black & White - I love crackle nail polishes! I'll be getting myself the rest of the colors too :)

 These are my most recent purchases.

- Wet n Wild Fastdry Nail Color in 229C Ebony Hates Chris - I just love the name.

- Wet n Wild Fastry Nail Color in 238C Party of Five Glitters - it was instant love. I'm wearing it right now over the next polish and it looks oh so sparkly!


- Wet n Wild Fastry Nail Color in 234C Hannah Pinktana - you can go subtle with this one, or build it up (at least 4 coats) for a color as intense as in the bottle. I'm wearing it right now actually with sparkles on top lol.

- Wet n Wild Fastry Nail Color in 235C Blue Wants to Be a Millionaire - I probably should mention that these polishes do dry very fast, which is very important for me. I HATE waiting around for polish to dry!! 

As you can see, my collection is rather small. I barely have over 20 (counting the ones I can't find, IF I ever find them that is). And without realizing, I somehow ended up with whole bunch of purple shades! Me, who loves red, red and more red! I didn't even notice till I put them all together. Guess I need to go shopping for different colors.

So how big is your collection? Do you event want to admit it lol? :)
