Pur Mineral Cinderella Palette

Can we talk about the Cinderella Pur Minerals palette? This was something that when I heard we were getting it in store I was like eh? Not that into it. When I opened the palette up my opinion changed immediately. It has 6 shadows, two blushes, a bronzer, highlight and 6 lip gloss colors. However the shadows were great when I swatched them I found that on the lid in order for them to show you needed to wet the shadow on the brush.


Here's my look:

Masks at the Carnival and other Enchanting Looks

If I could pick my favorite palette for fall I would definitely use The Cargo Venice Enchantment palette, I have used this so many times in the past couple months and I feel like you could do endless amounts of looks. I also have been loving their Gel lip colors also inspired by Venice, Italy. I put two different looks in this posts along with what I used.



Here's the first look:








Things I used:

As always I used the Cargo HD Picture Perfect Primer and then in the Lid I used Mask and used Carnival in the crease with a touch of Canal in the inner corner of the eye. I also used Lorac Front of the line pro in Dark Brown on the top and bottom.
For my lip color I used Cargo lip Gel in Bella? I think.


Second Look:


On the lid I used Gilded, then I used Carnival in the outer portion. I the crease I used Lido and Rialto, On the lower lash line I used Carnival and Gilded in the inner portion with Canal in the inner corner.. I used Lorac Pro Liner in Dark Brown for my winged liner.  For my lip color I used Cargo Gel Lip Color in Felice.

Emily Blunt "Sicario" movie premiere cat eye

This was a look I have wanted to do for a while, it was inspired by Emily Blunt at the premiere for her movie Sicario. She had this beautiful but playful blue cat eye and it was something that I had to do. The star of the look was the liner color which is from Colour Pop's new gel creme liners and this was in the shade DTLA, which is a stunning matte blackened blue color. 

Here's the look:

Self Made

I can't believe I missed the release of the new Anastasia Beverly Hills Self Made Palette. Ok I was a week late and I knew I had to have this baby... I love the pigmentation of all of their shadows and the colors just looked so appealing and I needed a back up of Pink Champagne because that color is just everything.  I also used a daring Ultra Matte from Colour Pop called Kapow and I say it's daring because I'm not one to wear the dark colors but I feel like it's acceptable to wear the dark colors around Halloween and this color looked almost black, even my fiance's mom asked if I was wearing black lipstick but Kapow is more of a dark plummy brown. actually has a raisin look to it.

Choco-lacque and Mixed Tapes

It's no secret that I am obsessed with the new Colour Pop 90's Throwback collection. All of the colors are perfection and the names are so perfect! In this look I used Mixed Tape which is described as a taupe/purple with a hint of grey. it has a pearlized finish that glides on your lids like butter. I also used my Urban Decay Vice 4 palette in Underhand and Pandemonium to add some smoky effect to the eyes. I paired that with a new product from L'oreal, their lip lacquers, which wear so comfortably on the lips and give a great amount of gloss without feeling sticky.


Here's my look:

Base- Cargo Picture Perfect Primer

Best O

 If you are looking for the most amazing burgundy liner this fall season, you must check out Colour Pop's Gel Creme Liner in Best O. It has a matte finish that glides on creamy and stays all day! Another new product I picked up was from Milani and it was one of their blushes in Red Vino, I love how Luminoso applies and I thought ok this is a straight up red but this is so beautiful, I will say that this is super pigmented and you literally just tap your brush in once and the whole brush is covered in product, you really have to tap off the excess but it's a gorgeous color for the fall/winter season.

As some of you may already know Colour Pop has done some collaborations with well known Youtube Beauty Gurus KathleenLights and CoffeeBreakwithDani. I love them both and I adore both of their collections. This look was done using both of their shadow collections along with some other Colour Pop products. I did also try a new primer that I got from a Sephora order, a deluxe YSL Touche Elcait Blur Primer and while it's nice and packaged beautifully I got gold sparkles everywhere including my eyebrows, so I don't know if it's something I'll keep using.

Feeling the Venice Enchantment Palette..

Haha yet another look using the Cargo Venice Enchantment Palette but using the gold colors. I also used on of the The Balm Meet Matte Hughes lip colors in Charming. We had just recently gotten the Bliss Color line at Kohl's and it is wonderful! I have only tried a handful of products but their concealer is fantastic and their ombre blushes are beautiful. I can't wait to purchase their stay cation foundation because we had a beauty event at the store and I had done a demo on one of our clients and the finish was stunning, it gave an appearance of dewy beautiful skin.
