New in & swatched : Essence mono eyeshadows & bronzer

Hi everyone!

A while ago I shopped some eyeshadows from Essence because it was a buy3pay2 kind of thing and whilst looking around I decided to finally pick up bronzer and starting to use that in my make-up routine.

 

I love the off-white and the bronze eyeshadow. The off-white became my go-to browbone colour and the bronze has such a beautiful and warm colour, great for a quick bronzy smokey eye.
But I'm not such a fan of the minty green one. The colour payoff isn't great and the shadow hardly shows up on the eye. But I kind of expected that from a €1,29 eyeshadow. Though I must say I like the new packaging! They're opening way more easier and no worries breaking or damaging your manicure! (*first world problems!*)


I've been using the bronzer for a while now, and I like it, but it's still that tad to warm for my skintone... I can't really say much about it since I've never used other bronzers!

Swatch : Don't touch my mosserati! - Catrice mono eyeshadow

Hi everyone!

I always try to stay away from mono eyeshadows in stores, because I get so easily tempted to buy colours that I already have. But I saw this one caught my eye and I just had to had it! It is soooo pretty! It's the perfect mossy green with golden shimmer. I absolutely love it!
And it ws Catrice, so didn't cost me a fortune, €2,89 to be exactly.

Yes Love - Neon swatch

Hi everyone!

The neon trend is going on for quite some time now, but until 2 weeks, I only had one orange neonpolish in my stash. I've never really been into the fluo/neon trend, but I always was more attracted to the "pastelneon" shades. I picked these up at 'de zonnebadjes' in my hometown. Look how puurrrretty!

Textured half moons

Hi everyone!

Today I got some half moons and textured polish (by Barry M). Celine picked Altantic road up for me, she's such a sweetie :D
Sadly enough I found Atlantic road a very hard polish to work with... Even though I only used 2 coats, The manicure looks really thick and heavy :(

The moment I found out that budgetbrand P2 came up with some awesome textured/sandy polishes arrived, I had to have them! So I sent my aunt on a quest (she lives ini Germany) and she picked up the ones I wanted :) This is one of them: Strict. A grey and silver glitter, and a flash of purple in certain angles. If you ever get the opportunity to get these, don't hesitate!

When I was London I purchased my very first Barry M's, ever since, I'm a big fan of the brand :D
Here's Refresh Mint. I wanted this colour since I saw the first swatches on the internet, and I'm sooo glad I finally got it :D

China Glaze - Get carried away

Hi everyone!

This one is also from the Cirque du Soleil collection. I'm not sure what to think about the bar glitters and find it so hard to find a good colour to combine it with. I want the golden, silver, black and red glitter to pop at the same time. This time I used The dawn is broken (Essence) underneath Get carried away. It does the trick but it doesn't make the perfect combo... Any suggestions?

The formula is good and you can use the polish on it's own if you don't like it is as a topper.

China Glaze - It's Trap-eze

Hi everyone!

I have this polish for a while (after quarelling with the customs and waiting way too long for my package to arrive :( and at the end paying big ass extra fees), and I do not regret buying it.

It's trap-eze is a gorgeous glitter bomb mixed with a white base. It's part of the Cirque du soleil collection and (in my opinion) it fits in perfectly! It covers in 2 layers and with a good layer of topcoat, the surface is smooth. Applies like a charm and looks awesome... all I need!

Essence - Upper green side

Hi everyone!

This green is one of the updated essence collection and absolutely in love with it! It's kind of a pastel colour but at the same time it pops! Very pretty! I totally recommand this to every greenlover.

To add more fun, I topped it off with glitter, woohooooo!

I bought his NYC eyeshadow just because I would have an awesome reduction buying 3 products of NYC and this mono eyeshadow - together with a black one - were the only ones left, so I grabbed it and paid.

If you want a pretty and not too much highlighter, go out and grab this one! It retails for only €1,99... How amazing!

NOTD Essence Pop Pastel Blue

Hi everyone!

Lately I've really been into blues! Just wanted to show you this beautiful one! It's Essence's Pop Pastel Blue; i'm in looooove! It covers in 2 layers and applies smooth, no complaints!

I topped it off with a casuelle duochromy-ish topper, but the photograph just isn't showing it's beauty. The topper shifts from a purple to gold shimmer, soooo pretty!

Is there a particular new polish, or colour you've been into lately?
