Following the last Sunday Swatches post (here), I thought I'd show you the Matte Max Lip Pens/Pencils; they actually look like they're eyeshadows as the packaging and sponge applicator tip with powdery product looks very eyeshadow-esque.

I actually quite like the texture and feel of these pens; probably the most comfortable feeling matte lip product I've tried!

FFF: Urban Decay x Gwen Soft Neutral Romantic Makeup Look

This weeks FFF is yet another look using the Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani palette (swatches and review here!)

As you can see I can't get enough of this palette and think it's versatile enough to create a colourful look like my previous look or a soft muted romantic one like this; let me know which you like better <3

Sunday Swatches: L'Oreal Infallible Sculpt Collection Review + Mario Dedivanovic Tips!

Hi guys!

Thanks to L'Oreal, I had the amazing opportunity to attend their "Sculpt School" on Friday with none other than Mario Dedivanovic.

If you don't know who he is, he's only the guy who brought to our attention the concept of "contouring" through Kim K (see pic below) and since then the craze has spun out of control (a quick scroll through IG makeup pages will give you an idea!)

I knew I had to attend the class as soon as I received the invite and was totally enthralled along with other bloggers/youtubers/press watching Mario work his magic on the model below.

Mario used the new L'Oreal Infallible Sculpt Range which aims to make "sculpting"/contouring easier for everyone and addresses sculpting every part of the face including base/complexion, eyes and eyebrows, cheeks and even lips (all products except the sculpting brush below).
 
Today's swatch post will feature the complexion products in this new range: 

FFF: UDxGwen "Danger in 1987" Blue-Gold Makeup Look

Hello my loves,

Thought I'd start 2016 with a fresh, colourful FFF/makeup look featuring the same main two shadows as the last look (1987 and Danger), but used in a different and more colourful way (as requested).

I also followed the Dress Your Face contouring technique with the LA Girl concealers I already owned (Creamy Beige & Fawn).. Hope you like it as much as I did creating it <3

FFF: Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Palette Makeup Look

So following my last review post of the gorgeous Gwen Stefani palette, I had to use the two colours I picked out asap for a makeup look; 1987 (a bright yellow gold) and Danger (a deep royal blue).

love this palette! <3

I also added the electric blue 24/7 eyeliner on the waterline.. full product list and more pics below! 

Sunday Swatches: Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Palette

Hello my lovelies!

Today's Sunday Swatches post features the highly anticipated Gwen Stefani palette which has been on my wishlist since I first laid eyes on it.. 

Not only is the packaging of this palette a beaut, it's also luxe looking, much like the style icon herself and the colours are just a perfect selection of neutrals with a pop of jewel colours as you'll see below.
12 of the shadows are completely new, and 3 are repeats. So basically the whole palette is practically new for a hardcore UD fan.

No Doubt you'll be lusting after this palette too once I've finished this review too (see what I did there?!), so read on for more info and swatches.
