More hauls

Hello there, it's been awhile since my last blog, as you may know, having 2 kids not easy to manage. Furthermore I've recently been sick and just starting to get well.
Anyways, recently I bought some eyeshadows AGAIN and thought should just share with you.
Hope you enjoy!
High Voltage Cosmetics (http://www.highvoltagecosmetics.com/)
Absolutely in love with the shadows. Very pigments, lovely, vibrant colors even without any primer on. Price reasonable and good amount of products. In fact, filled to the top. (5gm jar)
Only thing I didn't is the jar. It's the clip-top jar and whenever you open or close it, it'll spill everywhere. Have to be gentle when open or close!
Starting from top left: What a Drag, Hot Patooti (love this color!), Adrenaline, VIP,
Kitten has claws.
From bottom left: Green Mist (matte vibrant green), Alter Ego, Glass Slippers, Pirate, Secrets & lies, Taboo Taboo, Fairy Blood.



Bella Terra Cosmetics (9 stack pigments- "Diamond")
Bought this from Ebay. Search under "Bella Terra" and you can see the seller. It's much cheaper to get from Ebay than directly from their website. So do check it out. They have many different colors. Overall, pigmentation is good. I like to use a wet brush for it. Gives a more vibrant look compare to primer.

Yeah!!! I finally received my Sleek Palettes in "Graphite" and "Sunset". You can't find these palettes in Australia. I think they are from UK and I actually got them from Ebay (UK). As I've checked out from youtube, they are LIMITED edition so LUCKY me of having them. Hee!!!

Below are the fotds taken. As you can see, colors pay-off are GREAT. Graphite are colors range from White, black, grey to vibrant dark purple. As for Sunset, it consists of red (absolutely in love with this color!), maroon, beige, pink, gold, orange, yellow and a very bright blue...

My family!

Well, here are some pics of my family. They are my life! I don't know what I'll do without them. There's always ups and downs, filled with happiness and at times tears but in the end, it's all worth it. I love you all! xoxoxo






















































Eye looks makeup using Sleek Palette

More pics of me and this time, I was trying out on the "Sleek Palette in Chaos". Color pay-off is quite good. They are matte, abit powdery but quite easy to blend.





Eye looks using Luminous Cosmetics n vid of my beloved sons!

As from the previous blog, I've tried out the Luminous pigments and it turned out well. Love them! Smooth and easy to blend!
Applied "Lavender" on my eyelid and "Mystery" on the crease.








Oh, just a random video which I took of my 2 sons. My little bub with his tummy time and my older son saying hi. Hmm... how time flies! Love them to bits...xoxoxoxo

Mini makeup haul

Yesterday I've received 2 packages. One from Luminous Cosmetics and the other from EG Minerals.

I really like the pigments from Luminous Cosmetics. Absolutely gorgeous color with great pigmentation!

As for the cream liner which I've got from EG minerals. Hmm... even though it's a gorgeous blue (as shown on the website), I must say I'm abit disappointed. This is a replacement from the first order I've made several weeks ago. When I received the first one (same color), it was all dry up. I thought this will be better but nope... it's still the same. it's gone hard and couldn't even get it out with a liner brush. Sigh...

Oh well, here's the pics of items:-



Luminous Cosmetics - 2 Pearl Lipsticks
