Anastasia Beverly Hills Catwalk Palette. Swatches and suggested daytime look!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Catwalk Palette!

Review:

This palette has ten shades ranging from matte to shimmer, neutral to edgy and daytime to night-time wear. It is very versatile and the colors are pigmented and blend well. However, if packaging is important to you, find a different palette. The packaging on this one is one of the worst I've seen. It's flimsy and won't shut entirely. However, it still has a cute appearance besides that fact, so don't let that sway your decision... these are in fact, VERY nice eyeshadows.

Here is my suggested daytime look, along with the colors I used!

Swatches:

(Also, keep in mind that I have very fair skin and colors might appear more or less pigmented on other skin tones!)

NYX Macaron Lippies. Some swatches and review!

NYX Macaron Lippies

Rose & Lavender

Violet and Blue Velvet

Kiss!

Pout!

Smile!

Review:

These new matte lipsticks from NYX cosmetics are wonderful! Introduced in 13 beautiful colors at six dollars a piece, they are a very convincing dupe of Limecrime's high-end lip products. Highly pigmented and completely matte (with a creamy formula), these just don't go wrong in any way. I also found these to be very long lasting and very good for photography! If you try any fun trend this spring, try a daring lip color like these!

A Closer Look: 

(Blue Velvet)

(Lavender)

(Violet)

(Rose)

* this one is a personal favorite!*

I'm considering buying the rest of the collection when it hits stores. Let me know if you have any questions on the ones seen here! <3
