REVIEW: Naked 3 Palette

I'm going to be honest, I've never brought anything from Urban Decay before, I've heard so many great things about how good the brand are and how the products are great and the pigmentation is amazing but I've always thought the price was too steep so I've never brought anything from there. But I was thinking recently after my trip to MAC, that ill happily pay £14 or a concealer or over £20 for a foundation but I wont buy anything from Urban Decay, I thought it was a bit silly so I popped into my local Debenhams and to the Concession stand and after playing around with most of the products (and the sales guy was drawing on my hand with every product going) I decided to treat myself with the Naked 3 palette.

 I knew I had to buy the Naked 3 even though I haven't got the other 2, the reviews from this one were amazing so why not! when I got home it was the first thing I opened and the packaging is so pretty I didn't want to open it! After staring at it for a few minutes I opened it to find the most amazing neutral and shimmery shades I've ever seen. The shimmer from them looked amazing and I knew they were going to be super pigmented. In the package you get a total of 12 shades starting from a shimmery highlighter to a dark, vampy purple. I was in love!

  

Overall I really love this palette. The pigmentation on all of the shadows are amazing and they really do last all day and don't move when your applying them!

(I will post a look using this palette sometime next week so keep a look out on by blog.)

 

Have you got any of the Naked Palettes, let me know your thoughts in the comments below I would love to hear them! xx

Mabelline 24Hour Color Tattoo- Review

I brought a few of these color tattoos a while ago and thought this would be the perfect review! I've always been a big fan of Maybelline, the ranges are always good and the quality of the products always suit me, so I thought id try the color tattoos.
When I first brought them, I wasn't totally sure what I could do with the product, but as I started playing around with them I realised they can be used in a few different ways. I used them simply while I was out and about for a subtle daytime look, but then also used them as a base for your shadows to make your eye look stand out! Great for a night out with the girls!

And FYI- when they say 'color tattoo' they REALLY do mean tattoo! After swatching the colours on my arm, it took me about 20 minutes to scrub it off! I doesn't fade or run as you apply it and literally stays on all day! They are very blendable and very easy to apply to the eye and super affordable at only £4.99!

I started off with 3 shades: (left to right)

• Eternal gold 05
• Pink gold-65
• On and on bronze- 35

 

 

 

 

The products are all cream based and easy to apply. I prefer them to be cream based products and synthetic brushes would be best to use when applying at the bristles don't hold onto the product as well so we don't have to waste any product! Perfect! 

 

Swatching from top to bottom: Eternal gold, pink gold, on and on bronze.

 

 

 

I personally love this product and cant wait to stock up on some more and have a play around with all the different colours!
