You know that moment when you see a lipstick so beautiful that you just instantly run and grab your credit card without really thinking it through? Well that’s what happened when I heard the newest Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution shade, Between the Sheets, was available. I have six other shades and they’re some of my favorite lipsticks, the packaging is stunning, the formula is fantastic and I just love how they feel on the lips. I couldn't resist picking up another. I believe they had run ...

Catrice Liquid Metal Eyeshadow – Review & Swatches
I haven’t heard too much about Catrice other than the fact that they’re a German brand that is now sold exclusively here in the States at Ulta. Oh and that they’re super affordable! I think the most expensive thing they sell is $9 and the Liquid Metal Eyeshadows are only $4.99 each. So of course I had to pick up two. I went with Under Treasure, a golden taupe and Nougat It Right, a warm brown shade. First of all can we talk about the design? The 3D texture and wave design is fantastic and a ...
Revlon Not Just Nudes Palette – Review & Swatches
I stopped into Ulta a few weeks ago to return some things and of course pick up a few things as well. I spied this palette hiding in the back of the store and thought I'd give it a try! There are two new palettes: Passionate Nudes, with warmer tones and the one I decided on, Romantic Nudes. They retail for $14.99 at Ulta, which I do think is a bit expensive for the brand. It comes with ten shades and a double ended brush. The claims are that the Colorstay formula will last all day with no ...
British Beauty Haul
Oh that feeling when you're able to check something off your wishlist, isn't it the best? You may or may not remember my British Wishlist back in July, but I was finally able to get my hands on a few things! I was doing a bit of searching online and noticed Life & Looks, an overseas beauty site that ships to the US, had been updated with some of the things on my list! I was super excited! The site even offers free shipping to the US on orders over $50 and the delivery time was great, my ...
L’Oreal Colour Riche Monos Eye Shadows – Review & Swatches
The L’Oreal Colour Riche Monos Eye Shadows have finally made their way across the pond. I believe they were released in 2014 and I have no idea why they took so long, but I’m glad they’re finally here! It does seem as if the shades may be different, none of the names are the same though some shades may be similar. (UK bloggers please let me know if this is wrong!) The shadows are said to be the first with infused gel technology and they’re incredibly soft, especially the shimmers. The collection ...
The Lipstick Diaries: Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint
Another day, another liquid lipstick. It seems as if every brand is bringing out their version of a liquid lipstick and I’m not complaining! When Tarte announced their new Tarteist Lip Paint I was so excited to try them out, they're one of my favorite brands. They are $20 each and contain concentrated mineral pigments which are supposed to help soften and nourish the lips while you’re wearing them. There’s a pretty decent shade range, from lighter nudes to a bright purple. Each shade also has a ...
