Lisa Eldridge New Velvet Lipsticks – November 2019
Hello there! There is something special for you today on my blog! Pictures of all the new True Velvet lipsticks by Lisa Eldridge! This is the third time she launches new lipsticks, after the red collection and the pink collection. I could not help buying them all. And I did not regret it! EDIT NOTE: You can find more about the new 2020 Lisa Eldridge collection here! Now, let me explain my thoughts when I saw the shades for the first time. Firstly, I don’t like nude lipsticks on me, especially for going out. It makes me look like I have lost my lips, and I really like my lips,…
Lisa Eldridge Pink Lipsticks – Collection Summer 2019
Lisa has done it again! After her first true velvet collection, in winter 2018, the new summer collection got sold out within a few days. Soon afterwards, the Lisa Eldridge Pink Lipsticks became a sensation in the beauty community and on social media. #LisaEldridgeMakeup #LisaEldridgeLipsticks and any hashtag with the lipstick’s name is very hot right now! The pink lipstick collection consists of four lipsticks and a linen makeup bag which is lovely! The lipsticks come in two formulas : Formula 1: Luxuriously Lucent Lip Colour. I would characterise this formula as the equivalent of ‘glass skin’ for lips. The formula is very thin, so one swipe gives a beautiful…
Hot Lips 2 Review by Charlotte Tilbury
Hello! Long time no see, life is unpredictable, but I am so happy to be back! Today I am very excited as I am going to share with you five of the new Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips 2 lipsticks! I will show you how the colours translate on my lips as well as comparisons with other Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks. Packaging First of all, the packaging is amazing! It feels luxurious and it has a femme fatale, pop jazz vibe to it, with its leopard and Art Deco style. The lipsticks are refillable, and since the refills are cheaper than the classic CT lipstick, it is more affordable in the long…

2018 Beauty Favourites
Hello there! Where has this year gone? There have been so many interesting finds for me this year, some old, some new. Before all the New Year’s festivities, here is a small tribute to the products that have served me so well during 2018. Makeup All in all, I used many products both new and old releases, and I can say that I found myself using the old and trusted. I didn’t do it on purpose, I just think that I am not very easily moved by the trends. Let’s begin! Face For foundation, I used my trusty Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua. It evens out my skin, it is lightweight, and…
The SUQQU Cheek Brush
In the beauty world, there is a legend that says there is a blush brush so soft, that it is like a kitten’s tail caressing your face, and you will not want to use any other blush brush again. Is the legend true? I’ll tell you in a minute… Welcome to the review of the Suqqu Cheek Brush. The Shape The SUQQU Cheek Brush is a small blush brush. It is a bit smaller than Chikuhodo’s Z4, but on the same ‘order of magnitude’. It has an oval top view, as the ferrule is a little pinched. Below you can see how it looks in front and sideways. The Make…
Lisa Eldridge True Velvet Lipsticks!
Lisa’s talent has shone again, this time with a limited edition lipstick line! The lipsticks are all matte, velvety and red. The innovative texture of the bullet is moulded in a way that it looks just like velvet. They are available individually or as a trio with a black velvet makeup bag, which you can buy separately if you wish. I have been following Lisa Eldridge for years on YouTube, and I can tell that my taste coincides with hers, at least 95% of the times. I knew that these lipsticks would be amazing, just because she puts her heart and soul in everything she does (like her jewellery line…
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit Volume 4 First Impressions
If you’ve been following my blog, you will know that I have stated that I would refrain from makeup purchases for half a year! I have been doing really well. I enjoy using the products I already have, or I have only bought what I was running out of, or that I found on a very good deal. However, all holidays makeup collections are out, and I thought I should treat myself a palette of powders from Hourglass. Hello, Ambient Lighting Edit Volume 4! I have been wanting to get one of these palettes they do every Christmas. In fact, I wanted to try their classic Ambient Lighting palette, but I…
