There will be no or limited swatches for a while. Due to the weather and season, I cannot take a prober picture. Out lights are the kind that gives out an orange light which kinda screws up the pictures. Until I get my hands on a lamp with "natural" light, I cant swatch.

Wednesday Wishing Well

Every Wednesday ill blog about something I wish for. Something I cant buy right away or maybe ever, things that may be to expensive or to hard to get my hands on. And now presenting this weeks wish!   

E.l.f  Studio Baked Eye shadow Palette

I want these two so bad! Alas, they are from the American site and I must wait till they MAYBE get it at the UK site *sigh*. The one of the top is the NYC palette, a perfect match for smokey eyes with just a dash of cute. The one on the bottom is the California palette in gorgeous nude, brown and golden colors - perfect for the fall! I also like the mirror in the lid a lot.

Retail is 10$ at E.l.f

Fun fact of the Day: If you brush your hair from the tips and up you ll get less broken hairs and have an easier time brushing

Art Deco features Dita Von Teese

Dita Von Teese is the burlesque queen of pin up! Her signature red lips and cat eyes, not to mention her amazing curves, is renowned worldwide! Together with Art Deco she´s now launching her very own makeup line named "Dita Von Teese classics" as they will feature products that the leading lady herself finds essential in her beauty bag. I for one is exited but I am not sure if I will buy - depends on the price.

Body Shop teams up with Lily Cole

Lily Cole recently became ambassador for Body Shop and with that launching a new cruelty free line of makeup! Its limited and will hit UK stores in June. The makeup is pink, girly and filled with the new pearly shaped that dominated the beauty market right now, including a face primer and blush pearls with a pink puff that makes me think of old Hollywood starlets.

Ill be sure to get my friend in UK to get me a haul of this!

Esprique precios liquid eyecolor

I purchased this liquid eyeshadow on Ebay. Its Esprique by Beaute de Kose. I was very happy to win the bid as I seen this on a few blogs, and the flagon is just divine. Very princess like

The package is like any other, with tons of things written that i don't understand ha ha

So fine isn't it? The flagon is plastic but sturdy plastic ill give them that

The applicant brush is a very typical one, like the ones from lip gloss

The color is a very nice metallic purplish blue, depending on the light. Its easy to put on and can be smudged with a finger if needed. I got no allergic reaction from it

All in all a very good buy which I'm looking forward to use :D

More Swatches

Hope you'll find them useful :)

ELF Studio eyeliner/shadow stick Green/Moss

I like the color, its a nice green with gold shimmer

ELF cream blush Vixen

 More purple/plum in real life, I think its great for darker skin tones and for the more dramatic makeup

Mineral Moisturising Lip Tint pink pop

An odd mix between a lip balm and a lipstick. It feels nice on the lips but got a bit of "pharmacy" scent. It feels a bit like a lip balm that doesnt get absorbed. It takes a bit getting used to but as an everyday "lipstick" its ideal

Valentine part 2

As promised, swatches from the ELF Valentine gift :) Sorry about the pics looking kinda weird, my camera and I didn't cooperate. I couldnt catch the color of the eyeliner, but it was like a brownish grey.

Duo powder eyeshadow, black licorice 

The black is very dusty, it kinda reminds me of the coal like dust my friend once brought me from Bali, apart from the silver shimmer of course. Its ideal for smoky eyes! The silver is very metallic, I never before seen a powder silver who actually seemed like silver on the skin

Luscious Liquid Lipstick, Ruby slippers

There isnt much Ruby slippers" about this one im affraid. When something is named "Ruby slippers" one expect a strong red color with glitter, but alas no. The color is more of a blushy pink and its a bit sticky. Its more like a cheap lipgloss than a liquid lipstick. Im never going to be a fan of the tripple L in general and this one was a big let down  

ELF nail polish, Medium red

That's a nail polish worthy of Marylin Monroe! Strong color in that classic sexy tone! Extremely easy to apply!

Apologies for my fingers look - the recent frosty windy days haven't been kind to my hands at all

Studio Cream Blush seductress

Theres a reason I love the creamblushes - they are easy to apply and turns into a nice powdery finish on the skin wich enchance the natural look. The color is red-red but fades in a way that makes it turn slighty pink. Its very close to my natural blush, so its probably going to be my everyday blush from now on

Valentines!

Today my postman finally delivered my ELF valentines package. I haven't swatched yet, but ill do so later tonight! I was so lucky that I got things that I had on my wish list already! The Valentines was from the adorable cutie Gareth, and needless to say Its the best (well and first) Valentines "card" I ever gotten!

Lets open it shall we? 

Wow! How sweet is that! Rose petals!

 Luscious Liquid Lipstick, Ruby slippers

Brightening eyeliner in ash - I cant wait to try it out! 

Cream blush!!! I already have Heartbreaker and Vixen, and Seductress is defiantly the best gift of the lot! 

No look it complete without some chic nail polish

Duo powder eyeshadow in Black licorice. Smoky eyes anyone??

And a little sweet <3
