Valentines Day 2018 Date Night Inspired Makeup Look Using Only One Eyeshadow Palette!


 Happy February my beautiful people, I am so happy to finally have a video up for you guys. If you follow me on Instagram (you should be) then you saw that I lost almost 4 hours worth of makeup tutorials! Completely erased and as you can imagine I was very upset, but the surprising thing is I was only upset for a few minutes. After that I was just back to business, I tried to recoup as much as I could save and here is this super fun makeup tutorial. 

So there is this "challenge" its been around for at least a year now, where the challenge is to create a makeup look using all the colors of one palette. The real challenge of course is to come up with a wearable look, and my friends I think I accomplished that! Would you agree? 


The Huda Beauty Rose Gold Edition comes with 18 colors, the palettes has mattes, chrome, pressed pearls, and metal eyeshadows. I was very impressed at how most of the eyeshadows blended do nicely together. The pressed pearls and chrome were more tricky to blend but that is to be expected with the formula. 

The staying power was very impressive, the above picture was taken 4 hours after I had recorded the look and everything was still very much set. For people with hooded eyes, this is very rare that the colors don't start to blend in with one another and crease. 

Check out the video below and let me know what other looks I should create for you?

My Favorite Pantone 2018 Color Of The Year In Makeup And Beauty!

I was so happy when Pantone announced Violet as the color of the year of 2018, its really a beautiful color and looks great on clothing and makeup! I wanted to round up my favorite (Mostly Eye) makeup and beauty products in this shade for you and its also a little shopping list for items I might grab when shopping for makeup. 
Butter London + Pantone Color Of The Year 2018

Butter London was chosen again this year to carry the official Pantone color of the year. They created 13 products plus this great 4-piece kit priced at $36. This is a great value for your money, and all but one (nail lacquer) are full size! 
What's Inside: 

• Trend Nail Lacquer in Ultra Violet 
• Plush Rush Lip Gloss in Ultra Violet
• Glazen™ Eye Gloss in Ultra Violet
• Glazen™ Lustrous Liner in Ultra Violet
• Makeup bag with zipper closure


Sold Here: Butter London 
 Natasha Denona Eyeshadow Palette #28

I don't own any of Natasha Denona palettes, and they are in my list of I want to try but why so expensive tho? This palette sells for a whooping $239 and its highly rated. The reason I love palettes like this is you get the whole family of purple and some gorgeous blues here so you can really get creative when creating looks. One of the hardest shade to create for makeup artist is purples, getting the right shades can be tricky but from the reviews I hear that Natasha Denona got it right! 

The shade Electric Violet is almost if not the exact shade of the color of the year.

Sold Here: Sephora
Violet Voss Hashtag Palette 

Don't feel like spending all your dough in a makeup palette? yeah me neither. The Violet Voss Hashtag palette is a beautiful warm palette with red undertones in all the shades. The color Life is very close to the color of the year and its only $45 for 20 colors. 

Sold Here: Sephora 


One of the funnest way to incorporate the color of the year is with Mascara, and the Maybelline Volum' Express is really nice! Created by the beautiful and talented Shayla @makeupbyshayla its available in most drugstores. I have the black one and assuming the formula is the same the wand does a beautiful job at opening up and lengthening your lashes. 
Maybelline Volum' Express In Shade Poppin' Purple 

Sold: Target 

Any of these products will make a great addition in your makeup collection and will allow you to incorporate the color of 2018 to your looks. If I had to pick just one, I would probable get one of the eyeshadow palette since I can create endless looks with either one. How will you incorporate the color of the year to your looks? 

Announcing PANTONE® Color of the Year 2018. A dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade, PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future.

Stila Sending My Love Gift Set Review!


Stila's sending my love gift set is beautiful and well made, I love the colors they used for the package too! The gift set includes everything you need for a beautiful makeup look, five eyeshadows in one palette, a blush, bronzer and highlighter in the other. A lipgloss and eyeliner, I personally love that the eyeshadows are separate from the face powders, this makes it more travel friendly. This also solves the dilemma, of wanting to only pick on or the other to bring with you ;) 

Note: My camera is acting up and is washing out most of the colors, they are actually a lot more pigmented then this....

Too Faced Chocolate Bar!


I will admit it, I was not planning on purchasing this palette at all! I don't know why but I think after seeing it so much on instagram I decided I was not going to follow trend.... After walking around sephora for an hour I just kept coming back to it and like chocolate I couldn't resist! The colors are beautiful and very wearable on any skin color.  I love having a good mix of neutrals mattes and shimmery. Oh and the smell is intoxicating I will be using this baby a lot!

Tengo que admitir que cuando salió esta paleta no quería comprarla, y es que la vi tanto en Instagram que medio me aburro de ella. El Domingo pasado después de horas de andar en Sephora y como el chocolate no me pude resistir y la compre. Los colores son bellos, muy usable con una selección de tonos matte o con brillos. Y que les digo del aromo intoxicante de chocolate huele tan rico que me lo quiero comer, voy a darle mucho huso a esta hermosura!

Illamasqua Reflection Palette!

I have been waiting in reviewing this palette because I wanted to do a look with it and give you a better visual of the beautiful colors but I'm currently growing out my brows after I accidentally waxed a whole piece of it off (hint: I look cray cray). I love this cream eyeshadow palette, the colors are beautiful wearable and long lasting. The consistency is amaizing so creamy and smooth. I can't wait to play around with this palette some more! 

Eh estado esperando para darles la revisión de esta paleta, porque yo quería hacer un look con él y darles una mejor visual de los hermosos colores, pero yo actualmente estoy dejando crecer la cejas (Pista: Me miro como loca). Me encanta esta paleta de sombra de ojos crema, los colores son hermosos portátil y duradero. La consistencia es increíble muy cremoso y suave. No puedo esperar para jugar con esta paleta un poco más!

Review Time: Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo Eyeshadow!

  I was strolling around Walmart when I came across these eyeshadows. What caught my eyes at first was the packaging, and so I decided to pick up two out of the three colors they had available, and boy am I glad I did!! I went home and played around with the them a little but it wasn't until I decided to really give them a try and wore (pomegranate punk) alone with no other eye makeup and spent the day running around, I even cleaned my kitchen! and at the end of the night.... absolutely PERFECT, no creasing, no running and no fading! I was so happy that I went out the next day in search of the other 8 shades. I am so happy with this purchase, they are by far the best drugstore makeup I have bought in a LONG time. I cant recommend these enough.

Pros:

  • Great staying power. I wore these alone, no primer or powder on top and they did not move at all. 
  • Versatile you can use them as a base for your powder e/s or alone.
  • Price!! Less then $10 and you could even get them cheaper if you get coupons!
  • Great Packaging
  • A lot of color Options
  • Very Pigmented, the colors go on true to what they look like on the pot. 
Cons:
  • NONE!!!



 From Left To Right:
Tough As Taupe
Fierce & Tangy
Painted Purple
Too Cool
Tenacious Teal
Audacious Asphalt

From Left To Right:
Bold Gold
Pomegranate Punk
Edgy Emerald
Bad To The Bronze

Please note that I give every product the chance to work, I would never give a product a review without trying the product a few times... With that being said, I LOVE THESE!!! Good Luck Xxx
