elf Jasmine beauty book A whole new world


                             
 
This is Elf's latest beauty book release. This book can be found at your local walgreens for ten dollers. It comes with eyeshadows,blush and bronzer and lipgloss plus other items. It has just  hit the stores so be sure to get it out before it sells out. I checked mine today and this was the last beauty book they had there.
Not only is this palette a great value but the packaging is so gorgeous as well. It has Jasmine on the front with gold design inlay.

The first three shades are the biggest of the shadows and they look like good browbone and transition shades.

The blush in this palette isn't very pigmented so it's more of a light highlighter shade.
The bronzer is a warm medium brown shade.
Both of them are powdery.
                               

                             


This is the lipgloss name is magic carpet. the color is a sheer berry shade. It did not feel sticky on my lips what so every. 






                                   

                                   
                                 
 
 
 
The book also comes with a foldable cover that shows a face chart you can create with the shades.
The left side is called Arabian days and the right is called Arabian nights.
 
 
 
This beauty book is a great value for your money. The products are powdery but most are pigmented.
I mostly bought this item because this was one of my favorite princesses growing up so it was of a novelty for me.
I have a makeup room so this will look so nice on a shelf in my room.

Urban Decay naked 3 Palette

 This is the NEWEST Urban Decay Palette with 12 new rose hued Eye shadowes!
You can find this palette at Ultra,Urban Decay,Sephora for $52 dollars. It includes 4 sample size primer potions: original,eden,sin,and anti-aging. It also includes a dual eyeshadow brush,one side being a fluffy blender brush while the other side is a lid brush.I love that they included the brush,I use it everyday(sooo soft)
The packaging of the packaging is so darling with it's rippled effect on the cover. The rest of the case functions much the same as the Naked 2 palette.
 As you look at the swatches I can't begin to tell you how Amazing the shadows are. No chalkiness what so ever! So silky and highly pigmented. There is not one eyeshadow in here I don't love. What an amazing idea to have a whole palette of rose hued colors. Not to worry their not super pink just the undertones are that Rosy color.

Color descriptions from bottom to top

Strange: is a matte pigmented creamy white color perfect for brow bone highlight. I'm so glad they put this shadow in here because it actually shows up on my skin

Dust: it's a light shimmery pinkie color. I usually put it over my lid color and it makes it look so sparkly that way

Burnout: it's a beige rose gold color

Limit: it's a matte light chocolate brown with rose undertone

Buzz: this is my favorite color, such a beautiful rose shimmer color.
I've used this color as my lid color and even as the crease color

Trick: A bold gold with lots of fine sparkles, a great pearly smooth finish
 
Nooner: it looks like a boring matte cool toned brown but it's actually looks like a rosy brown color on the lid, just beautiful and an unique color

Liar: a bronze rose color

Factory: A warm dark taupe color

Mugshot: deep purple rose golden shade

Dark side: A slate silver purple color

Black heart: a deep black purple shade with red micro glitter.
On the lid it comes out lighter and I don't notice the red glitters




 This palette blew me away with the quality and uniqueness of the colors. I was on strike against getting this palette at first but when I swatched it I was awe struck at the colors. I have not seen another rose hued shadow quad that captures the neutral aspect of the shadows. Over all I could not have asked for a better palette. The price might seem steap but I waste so much money on cheapy palettes that I won't even end up using so atleast I know with this one I'll get so much use out of it!

Too Faced Be Bright and Merry Review


 
 
 
 
 
 

 I originally wanted the other huge palette Too faced offered but it sold out so fast so I decided this was the
 next best thing. It is far better than I hoped for. The colors are insanely pigmented and velvety smooth. The kit itself came with a glamorous gold makeup bag with two palettes and a full size lash extension mascara. It retails for $45 but ulta was offering it for $38.
I feel like I got such a great deal as each palette comes with 6 eye shadows a blush and either an luminzer or bronzer.
 
What I look for in palettes is if I can use the palette for a whole look and not have to dabble in other random shadows or other eyeshadow palettes. It's more convenient and helps me get a lot of wear out of a palette. This kit not only has everything I'm looking for but the packaging is so cute. It has a chevron design to it making it look so chic.
 
Alright let's get to the palettes shall we. I'll start with the Be Bright palette. It's my favorite one out of the two.
 
WISH: is a semi matte beige color
BRIGHT EYES: The prettiest magenta pink you'll ever see
SEQUIN: A deep forest green almost duo chrome
MARSHMALLOW: light sheer baby pink
MARVELOUS: iridescence light grey

STARRY NIGHT: A black with silver sparkles
 
INNER LIGHT: A light pinky highlight
LOLLIPOP: baby pink
 




                                                                  Be Merry Swatches
 
EGGNOG:white matte
VERRY MERRY: olive shimmery green
BUTTERED RUM: a golden carmel
BUBBLY: pure golden shimmers
BROWN SUGAR: medium toned shadow
CHOCOLATE MOON: black with gold glitters
 
 
 
Such a good idea to add a bag to this kit. Very travel friendly.
