Let me tell you, I'm sick of this no buy. It was really only supposed to be until BoS3 came out, which it did, today. So I'm in the clear from now on. Yesterday at Sephora, I wanted to get something small, and they had these cute little Color To Go palettes. I got the Red edition, but I also thought the other one was cute (the purple was similar to UD's Fishnets!), and I'll probably get it next time. I am a sucker for a set. And for only $15, I'm not exactly breakin' the bank here.
I don't know why Sephora makeup gets such a bad rep- the 2 Sephora brand liners I have are great, my little face scrublet is great, and this set is great. I would say that although it's the same type of product as the Too Faced Glamour To Go set, the quality is actually better, and $5 less!
It's about the same size as my Glamour To Go palette, but the lippies and blush pull out from the side instead of the bottom.
Thanks Blogger for flipping my picture...do you see why I found this irresistible? Look at the great fall colors!
The shadows are pretty and pigmented. The dark blue matte was kind of a PITA, in typical matte fashion.
The blush is heavily swatched in those pictures, but even with just one swipe it's very pigmented (ie, easy to overdo it if you have lighter skin).
I was really surprised at the pigmentation of the lippies, since most lippies in palettes tend to suck.
Here's a smokey eye look I did today using the palette. My blush and lip color are also from the palette.
If you are addicted to sets, like me, this one's a fall necessity!
I know I haven't been posting lately, and this will probably continue for at least the next week as I am actually getting hours at work! I'm really excited to finally be getting some money to buy new stuff :D But I'll try to keep updated as much as I can! And I know I have awards people tagged me for... maybe when I stop being too lazy to fix my layout, I'll post the awards.
I did an EOTD using a Sephora brand Colorful Eye Shadow Palette in "Mauve Yet! 05". This was a gift from my BEST FRIEND Maria (happy now missy?) :D I love her. The shadows are slightly less pigmented than they appear, but I think it will be like my NARS shadow, where I have to use it a few times to get the right color out of it.
I never buy any quads or palettes or anything, but now I see why people like them. Having pressed powders that go together can make for a really quick and easy look. These pictures don't make it look as good as it did irl, but I thought my makeup looked really polished and professional. This might be my new everyday look!
I don't know what other things I had used for this look, but it was probably mousse blush, the collegen mascara, blah blah.
In case anyone's interested, Cherry Culture is having a 20% off sale right now, and HauteLook will be having an event for Se7en Jeans on Monday (so excited, I think me and my dad are each gonna get a pair). Have a great weekend everyone!
