REVIEW: LA GIRL BEAUTY BRICK EYESHADOW PALETTE (SMOKY/NUDE)

Hi Guys,

So this is part one of my L.A girl review. Being an eye shadow girl i am very particular about pigmentation. I cannot stand chalky shadows or some with no color payoff.  I won't even bother. L.A girl released four eye shadow palettes with different themes. There is something for everyone..A palette to create neutral looks, smoky looks, romantic and bright looks.

I received the Nude and Smokey palette and i couldn't wait to play with them.

WHAT L.A GIRL Says:  Four gorgeous must-have eye shadow palettes filled with a dozen majorly pigmented shades ranging from super wearable looks like Nudes to bolder looks like Neons. L.A. Girl’s Beauty Brick Eye shadow Collection gives you the best of all colors to allow you to create stunning looks! The variety of colors and textures in the Beauty Brick Eye shadow Collection include shimmer and matte shades making these captivating palettes very versatile to go from an everyday look to a night out.


NUDE PALETTE

Dazzlebeautie: This has got to be the most popular of the fourth palettes released.It is very wearable and great for soft,flirty, romantic and sexy looks. It holds 12 colors with a combination of 3 matte and 9 shimmery colors that are very wearable for both day and night time. 

This palette is very similar to the Urban decay naked 3. There are some serious dead on dupes in there. I like how lightweight it is and the price is great. (Comparison pic above)

From the swatches above the pigmentation of this is alright. Some colors are soft , buttery and pigmented . The matte colors you will need to put in a little extra hand to get good payoff and the shimmery ones are great.  I suggest using a primer with these to get better pay off but overall this is a great palette to have.




SMOKEY PALETTE


Dazzlebeautie: Everyone loves a great smokey eye. I know i do. This palette like the nude has 3 matte and 9 shimmery colors. There are blues, grey's, bronzey and deep navy colors to create different sultry looks.

 The color pay off of this is really great as well. The bronze color has the BEST pigmentation of the bunch if i might add. It is such a pretty color and i really like that the most. As the other palettes it is lightweight and the price is great for anyone on a budget.

PRICE:N2500

BEAUTY KINK GOODIES.. L.A girl concealers,eyeshadows...


Hi Guys,

Last week i was sent some makeup goodies from Beauty Kink. I was super excited about this because they where all from L.A Girl cosmetics. I'm sure we all know that brand by now. The one that had a stand filled with makeup and nail polish usually situated  at the back of any beauty store you visit. You probably just  glanced at the stand, put it back and bought some NYX. YUP that one..Well i must tell you, they are here to get what's THEIRS!! 

Honestly,i have to give it to whoever their new / "just woke up from a great slumber" creative director is. They did a major 360 and have been rolling out awesome products lately. From the pro concealers that are a beauty on a budget diva's dream to their eye shadow palettes that are great dupes for the high end ones and also their glazed paints. GO L.A GIRL!! Yasss i love a good "BRAND REVIVAL".

Recently they launched a matte lipgloss line.. ABH had us digging deep into our pockets but these are here to rival all the high end matte lippies out there. And for the price too? You know you have to get some.....

I will be do separate reviews on the products so i don't send you all into a snooze fest with all that reading. Keep checking back for the posts and makeup looks guys.

WHERE TO BUY ALL THIS AWESOMENESS: www.beautykink.com

WHERE HAVE I BEEN?!!?? Makeup Ban and IG makeup obsessions..



Hi Guys,
So I've been away for 2 months!! Yup! I know. Anyone reading this will expect me to start a whole story on how busy life has been and how i couldn't find the time to blog but that is NOT TRUE. Well for me at least.

What had happened was..... I put myself on a MAKEUP BAN! NO BUYING MAKEUP!

Earlier this year,i had to take a step back and calculate just how much money i was spending on buying makeup. From N6000 lip glosses to N15000 eye shadow palettes and N12000 foundations. Honey, my bank account was not happy. Knowing my person, i like to try out new products and i do go with product hypes . Hey if they say its awesome let me give that a try. *swipes card* We all know IG does not help. Come on its fun and we all get to share our thoughts on all our latest beauty purchases at the same time.If you are an avid makeup lover and you are on IG, majority of the accounts you follow will either have usernames that start with "MAKEUP BY.." OR "BEAUTY BY". lol!! ME= GUILTY!!!


I must state that  i know i do not  have to do product reviews alone to run my blog. There are other interesting things to talk about and share with my readers like makeup looks and beauty tips but honestly i just love doing reviews the most. I love to give my honest opinion on products but this can get real pricy because there is always a new matte lip stain or a new highlighter for the GAWDS!! 

Would you believe me if i told you i do not own one lip gloss from LIME CRIME!!! 0_0 * gaspsssss.... SALEM! AAAAHH! MY BAYBAY!!!

Anyway i broke out of jail y'all! I'm back with the reviews and makeup looks. Thank you to all my friends who sent me emails asking where i was. Im here hunnays!!! Wassaaap!! *wink*

And oh, these pics are from a look i never posted on the blog... U LIKE??
