Urban Decay Naked Palette (Original) vs Naked 2
There exist some definite mixed opinions on these two palettes. Are they too similar? Not similar at all? Do you need both? Just one? Neither? I’ll let you know what I think at the end of this post. But for now, brace yourself for some serious picture-loading.
An EOTD With Too Faced’s Sweet Dreams Palette
Just thought I’d share the latest look I created using Too Faced’s Sweet Dreams Palette! It’s nothing special, but I gave steps anyway.
MAC Lipstick in Reel Sexy
I think the hardest part of my 3 month no-buy (which, if you haven’t guessed ended as of the first of April) was the lack of MAC lipstick purchases. In fact, the last MAC lipstick I reviewed was way back at the end of September!! Bwaaa! Let’s jump right in shall we? Here’s the LE Amplified Finish lipstick released as part of the Reel Sexy collection…aptly named, Reel Sexy.
Too Faced Sweet Dreams Palette – Review and Swatches
I knooooooow! I knoooooow. I have to not-review palettes that are no longer on sale. At least this too has several permanent shade shadows that you’ll be able to get a feel for. Too Faced’s Sweet Dreams Palette was a Holiday 2011 release, it was sold for $52 USD if memory serves correctly. But I didn’t pay for it! Nope. This, dear readers, was another win from DGS Beauty’s Birthday Giveaway. So this picture-laden review is dedicated to the amazing Dinah!
Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner – Review and Swatch
The last time I purchased an eyeliner was back when I reviewed the Essence Gel Eyeliner in June of last year. And if i’m not mistaken, it actually took me a while to get that review up! Sadly my little essence pot dried out, a little over a half year later (Is that impressive? Someone tell me!) I still had a bit left but with its death imminent, I decided to seek out a replacement. I ended up buying two (a pencil and another potted liner.) I think you can tell which this is.
This gel offering from Maybelline has been making its rounds on the blogosphere for a while now; and yes i’m going to review it anyway. Mostly because I really can’t stand the idea of posting another blush review after the monstrosity that was the week-without-Larry (the laptop.) Oh. He’s totally back now guys! Well, knock on wood. He goes in for more work than…some celebrity.
