Favourite Look of the Week: Taupe-y Grey

I honestly haven't given much attention to the shadow "verve" from my UD Naked 2 palette so I decided to wear it when I had a girls' day with a friend. I always seem to use the same shades and do not experiment with other shades as much. Will have to do more exploring with my palettes!

For this look I used the following:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance to prime my lids

Maybelline Color Tattoo in "Too Cool" as a base

"Verve" from UD Naked 2 all over the lid

"Tease" from UD Naked 2 in the crease

"Busted" from UD Naked 2 for outer third of the lid

L'Oreal Extra Intense Liquid Pencil Eyeliner for lash line and water line

CoverGirl Natureluxe Mousse Mascara

Holiday Red Lips with CoverGirl Hot Passion Lip Perfection Review and Swatches

Hey guys!

I'm so excited that it's December already because that means more chances for me to wear one of my favourite looks and that is a red lip. I know this lip look can be worn throughout the year but there is something about the Holidays that makes me rock out this look more. And in lieu, I purchased the CoverGirl Lip Perfection Lipstick in Hot Passion as I've heard great things about this lipstick. Let's check it out!

Favourite Look of the Week: Smokey Purple

I was browsing through the videos in youtube and came across a tutorial for smokey purple that I wanted to recreate and wore for my mom's birthday dinner. Getting the deep purple shadow to be a little vibrant was a challenge as I had to put a lot of layers with the shadows I already have. I mixed the pinky-purple and plummy-purple shadows from the Tokidoki Palette to get the shade I wanted. I hope you liked this look! 

Products I used are the following;

E.L.F. Eyelid Primer (not pictured)

Pinky-purple + plummy-purple mixed from Tokidoki palette - all over lid

Deep eggplant shade from Covergirl Sugar Coated quad - crease

"Blackout" from Urban Decay Naked 2 - outer third of the lid

Essence Gel Liner in "Midnight in Paris" - upper and lower lash line

Benefit "Bad Gal Lash" Mascara

Favorite Look of the Week Vol. 2

Here is a look I wore when I went out this week, I'm normally a neutral shadows girl but I thought to change it up!

For this week's look I used the following;

E.L.F. Eyelid Primer

"Turquoise blue" from the CoverGirl Sugar Coated Quad  all over the lid

"Dark purple" from the CoverGirl Sugar Coated Quad on outer third of the lid

"Tease" from Urban Decay Naked 2 in the crease
"Foxy" from Urban Decay Naked 2 as highlight

Essence Gel Eyeliner in Midnight in Paris on upper lash line

Wet n Wild Megalast Eyeliner on lower lash line

Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping Mascara 

CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 4-Kit Shadows in Sugar Coated Review and Swatches

Hey guys!

CoverGirl has added new set of shades in their Eye Enhancers collection with sleeker and thinner packages. In Canada, I have seen the newly packaged quads in Walmart, Shopper's Drug Mart and Zellers. I bought mine from Walmart for about $6.00.

CoverGirl Eye Enhancers in Sugar Coated includes shades in mossy green, eggplant purple, turquoise, and golden peach. The pigmentation for these shades are quite sheer but you can pack them on for them to show up more.

On to the swatches.

Without primer

With primer

Over white cream base

I think the colours showed up the best and are more vibrant over white cream base than using just primer underneath.

I have used each of the shades individually but I have not used them altogether in a look yet. I can't seem to create a look showcasing all shades that would look good together.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post!
