Is this real life? Urban Decay Naked 4

Hiya Everyone!

I hope your all having a good day. I came across the picture below online earlier this morning and I'd be lying if I didn't say I was excited. Is it real?! Sadly we don't know. 


I love the shades and the colors. I'm praying this is real but who knows? 

I did my research and it seems that it's not a legit urban decay product. But, you can still buy it online from China. I won't be doing that because of shadow quality and ingredients but please Urban Decay MAKE THIS PALETTE REALITY! 

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed!

Studio Gear Holiday Palette


Hiya Everyone!
 
Here today to tell you all about the Studio Gear Holiday Palette! This palette includes a blush called Snowy Glow and 4 amazingly pigmented eyeshadows!
 
 

 
Above I swatched all the colors in the palette from top to bottom the colors are Frost, Platinum, Coal, Glimmer, and the blush is Snowy Glow. For some reason these colors remind me of the Hunger Games, its probably because one is named Coal and it reminds me on the mining district.
 
These colors are amazingly pigmented and would be great on any skin tone in my opinion.
The Platinum shade is my favorite because it is the most pigmented of the eyeshadows but they are all pigmented.
 
The packaging of the palette is great except I wish they would have included a mirror instead of the directions that you cannot use. In the directions on the top it labels the colors by number from where they are in the palette but they are placed differently in the palette than in the picture.
It would have made the palette better if there was a mirror but all in all this is a great little palette. It would be great to give someone as a Christmas gift or put in their stocking.
 
This palette retails for 40.00 but is on sale on the site (link below) right now for 25.00 and I have a special 10% off coupon code for my readers that never expires!
 
 
 
Reader Discount: 10% Off

Stila Countless Color Pigment

Hiya Everyone!
 Sorry I have been gone so long but forget about the excuses, I am back and better than ever!

Today I want to share my opinions on the Stila Countless Color Pigment in Center Stage with you.
I purchased one of these in Tie Dye at Sephora in Nashville, TN while on vacation there for 22.00 and when I seen this on Amazon for around 10.00 I snatched it up! These are so pigmented and smooth.


I love the look of these and that's what initially made me buy the first one even though I haven't heard many people talk about them. To me they just look like rainbow unicorn makeup! The one pictured above is the Stila Countless Color Pigment in Center Stage.

Here are all four colors swatched on the back of my hand, from left to right is the Pink(very pigmented), Orange(more of a peachy pink), Purple(so bright), and Blue (extremely pretty!)

I highly recommend this eye shadow if you are looking for long lasting shadows that give that perfect pop of color. From the two Countless Color Pigments I have, I have concluded that the colors in the line are pigmented and smooth.

When I put these on my eyes without a primer they don't crease or smear and they blend so well, its like effortless blending. With a primer the colors are even more vibrant and amazing.

You can purchase these from Stila and Sephora. I found this one of Amazon at a discounted price. I will be looking for more of them in the line but Center Stage is my favorite out of the two I have. If you'd like swatches of Tie Dye just ask and I would be happy to post them for you. I have so many ideas for posts coming up and some exciting collaborations are in the works. Also Halloween tutorials might come in to play! Stay Tuned for more!

Mini Makeup Haul

Hiya Everybody! I stopped by a discounted store today and they had alot of makeup to pick and sort through. They get their products from stores either going out of business or discontinued or overstocked products. They were extremely discounted and I think I found a few treasures and there is one I was extremely excited about. So lets get into my Mini Haul..


The first thing I picked up that I was happy about was the Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder in translucent. This costs 5.49 at my local Walmart and I paid only 1.99. I have been wanting to try this powder so look out for a review soon!
The next thing was the Wet and Wild Idol Eyes Creme Eyeshadow Pencils, I was suprised to find two of these in the massive bins of makeup they had to choose from. I got them in the shade Distress, which is like a royal blue color, and the shade Techno, which is a beautiful purple color. These were regular price at 99 cents each but I was happy to find them because I cannot find them at any stores around me. These may be discontinued but I am not sure. I swatched them in the car and they are super creamy and pigmented, I love them already.
Next, was the Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Eyeliner in Brown. I have been looking for a brown eyeliner and I was excited to find it in a gel formula. I am really looking forward to trying this out. Thr original price on this was 7.99 and I paid only .99 cents.
Last but not least were the two nail polishes that I picked up, one from Essie and one from Orly.
The Essie polish I picked up is in the shade Fiji and its a very light baby pink and as soon as I seen it I fell in love.  You can get this for 4.80 on Amazon but I picked it up for .99 cents. This was the only Essie polish in the entire store and I also picked up the only Orly polish in the entire store. You could say I was very excited to pick up this next polish because I have been looking for it FOREVER.
The polish I picked up from Orly is in the shade Gumdrop and it is a very minty green color.  You can get this for 5.65 on Amazon and I almost ordered it yesterday but I am glad I didn't because I picked it up today for 1.99! I hope you enjoyed reading about my mini haul! Thanks for stopping by!

April Favorites

Hiya Everybody! I am here to tell you about my favorite products that I have been using in the month of April. There aren't many so this should be quick. I hope you enjoy!


My first favorite for the month of April is my E.L.F. Makeup Mist and Set! I love this stuff, I have reviewed it before and mentioned it in a few other blogs but its just great. This is available online, at Walmart, and at Target. For just 3.00 this does an amazing job at making my makeup stay on and last all day. Next is my NYM or Not Your Mothers Shes a Tease Volumizing Hairspray. This is infused with apple blossom and bamboo and the smell is to die for. This holds my hair in place all day without making it crunchy or heavy. This is 5.00 at Walmart. I am not sure what other places it is sold because I have only seen it at Walmart. I love the entire NYM line that Walmart carries, everything in the line is 5.00 so its super affordable and you get some amazing products. Next is my NYX 5 Color Eyeshadow Palette from the Caribbean Collection in I Dream of Nevis. These are all neutral eyeshadows and a great white color I like to use as a base. Look out for my everyday neutral eyeshadow routine later on in the week using this palette. I think I paid 8.00 for this at Ulta last summer but I am sure this is still available. When I bought it I never used it but lately I have been in love with it. Next is my Wet and Wild juicy lip balm with SPF 15 in the shade Raspberry. This smells like Raspberries as well and moisturizes my lips so well, I love it. I purchased this at Walgreens for 1.99 about a month and a half ago so I am sure they still have them. Last but not least has to be my favorite out of my monthly favorites, its my GrandeLASH MD Eyelash and Eyebrow Formula. This is supposed to help make your lashes or eyebrows grow. I use this on my upper lashes only and I use it before I go to bed at night. It has a small brush to apply it to the upper lash line. I recieved this as a gift from one of my friends who swears by it and I have always had short lashes and very few lashes but after using this for about 2 months now, I have so many lashes and they're so long. I have gotten compliments on my lashes and some people even thought I was wearing false lashes, this stuff works amazing! You can order this online and it is a bit pricey at 44.00 but it is extremely worth it. I hope you enjoyed my April Favorites, Thanks for reading!

Sula Creaseless Cream Eyeshadow

Hiya Everyone! I stopped in at my local Ulta the other day and picked up 2 Sula Creaseless Cream Eyeshadows in the shades, Holiday in the Sun and Please Don't Tell. I have swatched both of the colors below. I paid 8.00 each for these, which may seem a bit pricey but they are entirely worth it. These are the only CREASELESS eyeshadows that I have ever purchased that actually don't crease!
Holiday in the Sun in the first color and it is pretty much a baby pink. These eyeshadows are very creamy and pigmented. These swatches are one swipe with my finger. Please Don't Tell is the navy blue color and is very pretty. I love both of these colors so much and will go back and be buying more Sula eyeshadows. Thanks for reading!

Inglot Freedom System 3 Color Eyeshadow Palette

Hiya Everybody! I have to tell everyone about my 3 Color Eyeshadow Palette from Inglot's Freedom System. The Freedom System is where you buy the Inglot Palette, empty of course. I paid 5.00 for my Empty 3 Color Eyeshadow Palette. In the Freedom System you pick your shadows and put them into your palette. I bought my 3 color palette at IMATS, the shadows were 5.00 each as well and since I got a 3 color palette I bought 3 shades.
I love the packaging on the Inglot Palettes, they have magnets on each end of the top that just slides open and magnets shut, its great, I don't have to worry about my eyeshadow opening and getting all over everything if I am traveling. As I said I bought this at IMATS and in the long trip home and an airplane my shadows did break a little as you can see in the picture below but the packaging saved it from covering everything else in my bag.
Even though my eyeshadows broke in the commute, they are still amazing and super pigmented. The shadows do not have names they just have numbers and starting at the top with the yellow color, the colors are: 103R(yellow), 105R(light blue), 110R(Dark Purple/Blue). I have swatched the shadows below. They are VERY pigmented and bright, I had heard amazing things about Inglot Shadows and I was very excited to pick up a few of my own.
These are the Inglot shadows swatched against my hand with one swipe of my finger on the shadow. Very pigmented and great quality. I have worn these colors a couple of times since I purchased them and I have no had any problems with creasing or anything, these are absolutley amazing. If your looking for great eyeshadow, I urge you to check out Inglot. Thanks for reading!

Hard Candy Meteor Eyes Eyeshadow

Hiya Everybody! I picked up an eyeshadow when I was at Walmart and it is a Hard Candy Meteor Eyes Baked Eyeshadow in the shade Lunar Eclipse. There is a picture and a swatch below, this is a golden brown color with flecks of gold glitter in it. I have worn this color once and have discovered it's super pigmented and stays on my lid and does not crease! If your looking for a great eyeshadow I suggest checking these out at Walmart. I paid 6.00 for this and I believe it is comparable to an Urban Decay eyeshadow! Thanks for reading!

Wet and Wild Coloricon Trio

Hiya everyone! I went to the store today and picked up a few things and while I was there I seen the wet and wild coloricon eyeshadow trios. I have heard alot about these on YouTube so I picked one up. I got the trio in I'm feeling retro, it has a pearly shimmery white, a pretty sky blue, and a light fuschia purple shade. The colors are not as pigmented as they look in the packaging but I am very happy with this trio, I think it will be great for all kinds of eyeshadow looks so be on the lookout for those! I paid 2.98 for this at Walmart. There is a picture of the trio and swatches below! Thanks for reading!
