Pink & Violet Eye MakeUp using the KiKo New Smart Cult Palette, 01 Matte Revolution

Hi dear!

I'm back with another make up using the Smart Cult Palette 01 by Kiko! It is totally matte. The colours are pink and violet.

Here some photos:

New Smart Cult Palette, 01 Matte Revolution

EYESHADOWS: see above;

EYEPENCIL: I used the very intense Kajal Nefertiti 1, from the collection African Beauty;

MASCARA: Black in a Flash mascara by Karaja Make Up [In just few sweeps the eyelashes are black, voluminous and quite separated. Consider that this is one of the first time I apply this mascara, so I expect even better results for the future applications.]  

EYESHADOW PRIMER: eyeshadow primer by Catrice under the eyebrows and  the Perfect Touch Eyeshadow Primer by Karaja on the eyelid and underneath. This primer by Karaja is very dense so it is necessary a very little quantity of product and it has to be blended well before applying eyeshadow. The primer by Catrice is more 'transparent' and it is preferable to use it under the eyebrows.

That's all for today,

thanks for all the nice comments!

See you soon!

Kisses

Pink Violet Eye MakeUp using Smashbox eyeshadows

Hi dear,

this is a simple look I was wearing weeks ago for going to work.

I used only 3 eyeshadows, two matte pinks and a dark violet.

This is, as you can see, a completely matte look.

Here the result:

I used the palette by Smashbox, from the Wonder Vision Eye Set in Flash:

The Body Shop First Eye MakeUp Look

Hi dear!!!

This is my first eye make using 3 The Body Shop Colour Crush eyeshadows!

Yes, I have to admit that it has been a super fruitful black friday!

Here what I created:

Here the three wonderful eyeshadows:

1) Colour Crush

Shade: Sand By Me

Nuance: Chou A la Crème

2) Colour Crush

Shade: Chocolate Linger

Nuance: Chocolat Fondant

3) Colour Crush

Shade: Brownie & Clyde

Nuance: Brun Béguin

Firstly, I have applied under the eyebrows and underneath Sand By Me, which is a matte white, not a frosty one, but a milky one. It is perfect as highlighter under the eyebrows.

 Then I blended along the socket-line Chocolate Linger,

a matte light-gray-brown colour, it gives the right depth to the sight.

Lastly, I applied all over the eyelid and underneath, Brownie and Clyde, which is the only shimmery shade between the 3.

EYESHADOWS: the three new The Body Shop Colour Crush eyeshadows;

EYEPENCIL: no one;

MASCARA: Maybelline 3X volum'express;  

EYESHADOW PRIMER: the Advanced Eye Fix Primer by Elizabeth Arden.

In summary, I am very satisfied by these 3 new shades in my make up collection, but of course I have to test them better, and try new combinations.

At first "sight" these eyeshadows remember me the Karaja ones. 

I don't know if there is any connections due to the fact that the Body Shop ones are Made in Italy.

Have you ever tried this brand? If so, which is your opinion?

Let me know!

Karaja Color Emotion Palette n° 8 Eye MakeUp Look + Budgeting Beauty Tag

Hey dear!!!

As I said in a precedent post, I bought 2 Karaja palettes, the first one I have shown you is the n° 7, characterized by the creamy silver, a dark cold brown, an ivory white and a burgundy.

Karaja n° 7 First Eye Make Up Look

Karaja n° 7 Second Eye Make Up Look

Now, the n° 8 is a palette which contains two shades of brown (a redder one and a darker one) an ivory-yellow white and a cappuccino (does exist a colour definition like this?!) which is perfect for my eyebrows! I think that this palette is perfect for eyebrows too because the eyeshadows are super matte but the consistency is buttery (so the colour is well fixed, no fall out at all!) 

Here the first look with this palette,

the 2 eyes are not identical,

but I enjoy myself a lot creating slightly different eye make up looks =)

EYESHADOWS: Karaja Color Emotion palette n° 8, Lip and Eyes Palette, 3 Dimensional colours for a luminous, vibrant effect;

EYEPENCIL:the brown eyepencil Eye Designer, colour brun foncé 402 by l'oréal;

MASCARA: Maybelline 3X volum'express;  

EYESHADOW PRIMER: the Advanced Eye Fix Primer by Elizabeth Arden.
