BH Cosmetics Floral Blush Duos in Rose & Iris

Hello my gorgeous readers I hope you are all well :) 
Todays review is on two blush duos created by BH Cosmetics.  These blush were released last year and ever since I have had my eyes on them so i took advantage when I purchased the its Judy Time Palette to buy these two aswell :) 
First thing I want to say is I really wished I have bought the whole collection now Honest they are the bomb-diggitty


Every budding beauty needs the perfect cheek flush.  BH Floral Blush Duos are inspired by flower petals and their feminine, soft colors and include two shades inside each mirror, magnetic palette.  Swirl the two shades together and apply or use them separately to sculpt a lovely glow. by BH Cosmetics 
Look how cute the packaging is.  I am in love with it.  If this is not crying out girly I dont know what is :) :)   You are getting the choice of 2 blushes in which you can use on their own or together.  You are also getting a nice sized mirror always perfect for travelling.  I love how the lid has a magnetic which helps keep the blush from getting damaged aswell as easy open and close.  
There are 5 shades to choose from and get this they are all named which makes it even more sweeeet!!!! 
I regret not going for all 5 shades now after trying these beauties out but the 5 shades are:
Tulip
Lilac
Rose 
Iris 
Daisy 
Each cost as little as $4.95 at the moment which is 50% off which i presume is for the month of January as when I bought these I got them at the end of December at this price 
As you can see I ended up choosing Rose and Iris 

Ok Rose first of all is my utmost favourite and I think even if I get the other duos I will still pick Rose over them look how stunning the blush is.  
On one side (left) you are getting a stunning deep pinky rose shade with a golden sheen Oh my goodness im in love with this shade soooo much.  Its perfect for all year round and with suit every skin tone.  A little goes a long way and its so creamy it blends into the skin beautifully I love it on the other side (right) you are getting a peach toned highlight which is also stunning and gives a golden sheen which makes your skin glow.  I use these seperately as you are getting enough glow from the blush but for days you want that extra glow like in the summer you can mix the two .  I am telling you all now if you get the Rose Blush Duo you are going to fall in love its amazing !!!!


Next up is :) 
Oh my goodness this is beautiful too and I know i said that Rose was my favourite this doesnt mean I dont like this one
Iris is deep beyond deep but it doesnt mean I dont like it in fact I really like it.  
Starting with the blush itself (left) you are getting a a deep plum shade which is matte.  This shade is stunning and very pigmented.  I can see alot of women of colour going for this one in particular and it would look absolutely stunning on them.  If used with a light hand this would suit anyone with light to medium skin tones and would actually give a more deep rosey colour if used lightly than plum.  I of course have to use a light hand on this blush and I love the fresh look it gives me.  I would tend to reach for this if i am going anywhere that involves cameras and its very effective that way 
The other side (right) is more of a peachy coral with a stunning golden glow.  This could actually be used as a blush on the fairest of skins .  For me its more of a highlight which would be fantastic over a coral blush.  Mixing the two together works great as the first is matte so if you did want to add that fresh glow to the blush you have the highlight shade to do that :) 


These blushes without a shadow of doubt are brilliant and very long lasting.  Of course the best thing about them is they are buildable which means you can go as light or as heavy as you want.  I found I didnt have to reapply my blush through out the day.  For the price you are certain getting just as good a blush as a high end blush with the pigmentation the longevity the shades and also the packaging what more would you need apart from a celebration that you only paid $4.95/£3.00/€3.64 for them :)
Have you tried them yet ? 
You really should I promise you wont regret it I plan to buy the rest of the shades also so if you want me to show you swatches of them when I get them let me know :) 
Here is a photo of me wearing Rose lightly on my cheeks can you see that beautiful glow it gives :) 

Until Next Time Lots of Love Luck and Laughter :) 












I love love love hearing from you all :) I make it my duty to read each and every one of you comments and every time i get a comment from you it highlights my day thanks so so much to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Its Judys Time Eyeshadow Palette by BH Cosmetics review & Surprise ;)

Hello my beauties :) 
I hope you are all well :) Wow 2014 already isnt it cray cray 
Well for my first 2014 Review I have a lovely treat for you :) :) 
I am sure you all know the lovely Judy from Its Judy Time Her Beauty channel is a hit all over youtube and she has some amazing makeup looks reviews and all sorts on it.  She was one of the first Beauty Lovers I watched on Youtube and I havent stopped nor will I ever as long as her videos keep coming.  Awww and thats not to mention her vlog channel which is Its Judys Life.  Years I have been watch her life as she vlogs everyday.  I feel like I know her more than some of my own friends Watching her get married, when she first announced she was expecting watching Julianna grow into a beautiful baby girl and of course hearing them announce they were expecting twins I cant wait to see the Little bundles of joy.  They are a lovely family and a pleasure to watch every single day.  
Sorry I am babbling Anyways When Judy announced she teamed up with one of my favourite online beauty stores BH Cosmetics to create her own eyeshadow palette I was super excited for her.  I knew I had to get my hands on it even before she showed everyone the palette.  I knew she would pick shades that would suit everybody.  
The only down side is that its a Limited Edition and could get sold out any minute that why I was online straight away on the release date to buy :) The Good News Is I have checked the site and they are still available to buy as im sure BH Cosmetics are well stocked up as they always are on LE's. 

First off all let me mention the writing on this palette.  I love the fact its gold and its Judys style of writing the gold makes it stand out even more on the black palette which makes it look like you paid more than it cost.  The palette the light and small near enough the size of the Naked Palette only its not as bulky.  Perfect for travelling and perfect for fitting with you other palette collections.  What I love about it is the lid is well secured with a magnet which means no mess in your bag.  Its handy to open but seals shut with this magnet.  

Now for the inside is nothing but pure beauty and of course a special message for all of us from Judy herself :) This is her all time saying "Natural is Beautiful but makeup is Glam" I love it 

As you can see the palette consists of 12 stunning shades.  All for the beautiful cost of $14.95/€10.99/£9.10 Amazing value for a palette like this.  The one thing I have to add is your are only allowed to purchase one palette per transaction as they are at high demand and also Limited Edition I certainly plan on buying another before they run out completely.  
As stated this palette consists of the perfect neutral shades aswell as jewel toned blues and purples perfect for day time and night time looks.  Not only that but there is the perfect mixture of mattes, shimmers and satin eyeshadows which I love as its perfect for when you need to do a look in a hurry and dont want to be pulling out different palettes for the right shades or for travelling.  
Let me show you these amazing eyeshadows Click on the photo for a closer look at these beauties 

So starting with the top row we have:
  • A brilliant matte highlight cream with a slight pink under tone to it Its a perfect matte highlight and a perfect blending out shade for those harsh lines :) very pigmented for a lighter shade 
  • A perfect transition shade for those blending out moments.  You are getting a nice a light brown shade.  
  • I love this shade and also reminds me of a Naked Palette shade.  You are getting a stunning Satin gold.  It reminds me a little of UD "Smog" only lighter. Very pigmented 
  • Next up is another matte shade this time a lovely red brown shade a perfect crease shade and transition shade.  Another very pigmented shade 
  • This shade is a stunning deep chocolate brown This has a slight red undertone to it.  Stunning shade and one of my favourites very pigmented a little goes a long way
  • Another dark brown this time with gold shimmers a beautiful pigment shade and perfect for a smokey eye look 

Now for the 2 Row
  • Another of my favourites I have to admit and as judy says a perfect romantic shade you are getting a beautiful satin gold with a slight pinky undertone and boy is this pigmented I love it I love how it compliments my eye colour and make the green in my eyes pop
  • Oh boy this next shade is even more pigmented than the one before It is a stunning bronze this is more brown with gold running through a little goes a long way with this beauty 
  • When you look at the pan at this next shade you will automatically think wow a deep burgandy shade well in fact you are getting a a black with burgundy shimmer its beautiful and a perfect shade for night time looks.  I did find you have to be careful when applying this shade as there is some fall out.  
  • Next shade I love Judy for doing this she added a beautiful blue toned purple for those days you want to add a pop of colour to your eyes.  Purple is one of my favourite shades of eyeshadows as it compliments my hazel eyes :) :) This purple has a slight silver shimmer to it and very pigmented 
  • This next one is also for that pop of colour only this time its more blue with purple undertones.  I love how the sunlight makes this shade stand out more :) Very pigmented 
  • Oh my gosh this colour is beautiful a deep royal blue that is hugely pigmented This shade a little tints of silver sparkles but gives a beautiful satin finish 
The above swatches are made with no primer underneath.  I wanted to do one of the looks Judy did herself on her channel using this palette i dont think I did a bad job of it lol Click on the photo for a closer look 

As you can see yourself this palette is stunning.  You have all the colours your need to make numerous looks for both day and night.  I love that each eyeshadow is as pigmented as the other.  They blend amazingly and need very little effort apply.  With a primer they intensity of alot of these shades is amazing and wears all day long.  
I am thrilled I have this palette in my collection as its now another favourite of mine and I will be stocking up before they run out. 
 I also have a little surprise for you all to start off the New Year 
One of you is going to get a chance to win one of these palettes as a treat from me to you :)  All you have to do is comment and tell me Why you love me LMAO Only kidding just tell me What your Favourite colour of eyeshadow is and why???  Plus if you feel like sharing this giveaway you will earn yourself an extra entry but make sure to include a link with your comment 
Please make sure you are a follower also :) :) 

I really hope you enjoyed this review and Until Next Time
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

NYX Bohemian Chic Palette

Hello My beauties How are you all today?
I feel I need to explain why I have been so absent from blog posts.  I was telling you all in my last blog post that my kiddies were sickly and that I had no time only to look after them.  Well surprisingly enough I ended up catching what they had and have been suffering the past week with it.  I never normally get sick and never have been to the doctor but to be honest i feel a doctors trip will be in need tomorrow as I can seem to fight this one on my own.  So my apologies for been so slow but you know as soon as I am feeling better I will be back to regular posts again.  Today in fact I have a new blog post for you simply because I miss blogging so so much and even if it takes me forever to type it up I will get it posted :) :) 
Todays blog post is on the NYX Bohemian Chic Palette.  I was attracted to this palette for quite some time now and I finally got the chance to purchase it when Cherry Culture were doing their amazing 40% off everything sale a couple of months ago :) 
This palette is not entirely new It was released about a year ago

I have to say I love matte eyeshadows and that's what I attracted me to this palette.  I was a little sceptic about the fact that the pigmentation would be  a let down as there is alot of drugstore brands out there who dont have the best matte eyeshadows.  Matte eyeshadows are amazing for natural looks, for people who have hooded eyes, for blending and of course brilliant for women of age.  As shimmery eyeshadows always highlight problems such as hooded eyes and fine lines.  So its nice to have matte eyeshadows in your collection for them reasons. 
As I mentioned before I got this palette at 40% its marked price but its normal price is only $16/€11/£10 from Cherry Culture 
That in my eyes is an amazing price for what you are getting in this palette :)  

The packaging is plain and simple a black plastic palette with a built in mirror.  The lid is sturdy and secure :) :) 
Inside the palette is what's more important :) :)  When you first open the palette you see 18 beautiful neutral eyeshadows and then there is a tray to open underneath where you get 6 more eyeshadows and 2 blushes :) :) 

Nyx state that these eyeshadows are matte but my first impressions was that there was a few well at least half of the eyeshadows looked like they had a little shimmer in them.  When I finally swatched these babies they sort of confirmed what I thought.  They are more demi-matte than matte but in no way shimmery.  
Starting with the top row of shades these eyeshadow are in fact nicely pigmented considering they are demi-matte shades.  They feel soft and creamy.  There is some shades on the first row that need a little more swatching than others due to lack of pigmentation but with a little more swatching they appeared nicely.  Another thing I noticed was some were more chalky than others but with a good primer they settle beautifully on the lid.  With all these shades you have the option of dozens of day time looks which is perfect for any working/travelling/school going  woman as they are all in the one palette.  :) 

The second layer included 6 more shades which are a little more pigmented and colourful simply for pop of colour or for that nice little change from the simple browns.  I love how nyx included these to the palette for that extra option.  Not only that you are getting 2 beautiful shades of blush one is more on the neutral peachy side and the other gives a nice rosey healthy strong glow to the cheeks.  I have to admit the second row was more impressive to me as they were not as chalky as the first plus have a lovely amount of pigmentation without making the effort to layer.  

So honest opinion? 
I have to say This palette is worth every cent you can create alot of neutral looks with it.  Its handy for travelling and also a nice gift to give to any young teen who is been introduced to make-up.  The shadows go on sheer but can be build able and with a good primer they last all day long.  It would not be one of my favourite palettes but I have certainly got worse palettes.  Marks out of 10 would have to be 7 :) :) 
Have you tried this palette yet?  Would it be something you are looking for?
Until next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

Inglot 10 Pan Freedom Palette & Swatches

Hello my beautiful Readers How are you all today :) :) 
The weather here has taken a dramatic change once again pouring no bucketing rain all you have to do is look outside and you would get soaked !! ah well it could be worse (some how) 
Today I am going to show you another Freedom Palette I built up from Inglot.  I just cant resist this brand honestly from the time I got my First 5 pan freedom palette I have made a wishlist of eyeshadows that could go on forever.  These shadows are absolutely amazing and I do plan to get them all Really I do !!! :) :) Eventually of course :) 
Today I have ten more shades to share with you all and hopefully I will help you add more to your wishlist hahaha 
These shades I chose carefully.  I wanted to go with shades that are suitable for my shading of eyes and also can be wearable for both day and night.  I also wanted to go with shades that would compliment each other.  

First let me begin by talking about these wonderful palettes.  They are the most secure sturdy palettes I own.  I feel so safe in bringing these palette in my bag for travelling and trust that my eyeshadows are going to be intact when I open them.  The lid is held my 4 magnets that are on each corner of the palette and let me tell you it needs a good tug before it comes off.  The palette is available to buy empty and then you can choose whatever shadows you want to place in it.  The eyeshadows come individually wrapped.  
The 5 Pan palette with 5 Shadows costs:  €38
The 10 Pan Palette with 10 Shadows costs:  €68 
 What I love most of all is the size of these shadows They are amazingly big for the price and half the price of a Mac eyeshadow which in my eyes are the perfect if not better dupe of Mac.  
One piece of advice before you even enter the Inglot store is to google as many shades of eyeshadows as you can to have an idea what you would like because let me tell you, you are going to be overwhelmed with the amount of shades you can choose from the store.  
The one thing I will have to say is a pity that these amazing shades are not named and only numbered so if you have a list make sure you have the number correct.  
So without further ado let me show you the shades I chose: 

AMC Shine 30:  This shade is absolutely beautiful and the perfect highlight shade.  Its also perfect for a lid shade too.  This beautiful shimmery goldy champagne shade will certain go a long way if you are choosing a more neutral palette I love this shade :) :) 

AMC Shine 11:  Another amazing shade and perfect for a neutral palette.  This shade is also perfect for Autumn looks.  A Beautiful Shiny shimmery gold simple but fantastic as a lid or highlight shade.  I have also used this as a highlight on my face in the summer :) :) Love it.  

Matte 341:  This shade a a perfect blending shade it can also be used as a transition shade or even all over the lid.  Because its matte you can use it for everything really even a subtle highlight shade.  Its a beautiful pinky peach shade light but very pigmented :) 

Pearl 446:  Well it wouldnt be a palette of mine if there wasnt a shade of purple in it now would it.  Purple been my utmost favourite colour and a perfect shade to make my hazel eyes pop.  I just could resist this shade.  A stunning Plum shade with a pearl finish a perfect lid colour for a dark purple smokey eye I have worn this numerous times out in the town and it really makes a statement.  Beautiful just beautiful !!!

Matte 321:  Now years ago i would have ran away from any blue shade.  I always believed because I have hazel eyes that blues would clash with my eyes and they have in the past but only because I never used them properly.  This is a stunning deep matte navy shade that worked well as a crease shade and for using on the outter V this is also perfect to use as a liner :) I have learned that some blues really can suit me once I get the hang of using them in the right places :) 

Next row is also amazingly stunning Starting with 
Matte 356:  This is another beautifully pigmented Pink shade.  A perfect shade for blending, highlight and lid.  I cant believe the pigmentation from this colour a little goes a long way and its extremely easy to blend :) 

Pearl 452:  From the moment I set my eyes on this shade I had to have it.  Its a stunning burgundy shade with a pearl finish and its extremely pigmented.  Its feels very smooth and very easy to apply.  A little goes a long long way with this shade and its a perfect Autumn colour.  What I love more about this shade is that it really brings out the green in my hazel eyes I love it !!!

Pearl 421:  Another of my favourites I have to say.  This is a stunning coppery brown with a pearl finish again hugely pigmented and very easy to work with.  I found no fall out using this shade and it applies like a dream.  Love it !!!

Matte 335:  Another shade for the Autumn time :)  This shade again I would not normally go for as its a type of shade some people find hard to work with.  A beautiful rusty matte orange and boy oh boy its stunning when applied.  So far I have used this shade as a transition colour and I love it.  Very pigmented and very easy to blend Gorgeous shade 

Matte 391:  A matte black plain and simple :)  The shade is far from plain let me tell you.  This is not the blackest of black for instance if you are one who likes black as soot black this is not the one to get as its verying towards charcoal black but its the perfect black for daytime smokey eyes and every night time I also love to set my liner with this shadow I love it and the fact that its matte and black makes no difference to its performance as its so easy to work with :) :) 

To buy these eyeshadows separately they are only €6 each for approximately 2.7g of product which is absolutely amazing for the quality that they are.  Even without a primer they last all day long but with a primer the intensity and lasting powder is out of this world.  

Overall as you can tell I love these eyeshadows and and the palettes.  They are ideal for everyone even makeup artists plus they have the quality of high end brands but not the prices of high end.  
I am determined to get whats on my wishlist which so far is over 30 more shadows hehehe :) 
Have you tried Inglots Eyeshadows yet ?
Until Next Time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

MUA New Matte Lipsticks

Hello Everyone  :) 
How are you all today :) 
Well todays review is on the the New MUA Matte Lipsticks.  I couldnt resist as I do love Matte Lipsticks.  
I am very cautious when it comes to buying matte lipsticks because I have had experience with some brands that they are just way too drying or that they are hard to apply or that they look patchy on the lips I just hate that.  I have found a brand so far that is affordable and that do amazing Matte Lipsticks but there is always a want to try other brands for comparison both in price and in quality.  
MUA Matte lipsticks are only £1 each which is a super super bargain and a price not to be beaten in my eyes.  
MUA has also changed the packaging a little on their matte lipsticks.  Their normal range you will find that their lipsticks are a black tube whereas this range (the matte range) has a white tube which is always nice to have a little change.  Plus its easier to pick out amongst the massive collection of lipsticks we girlies already own (yes you and me and all the beauty addicts out their lol). 


There are 5 shades in total 
There is:  Wild Berry which is a deep blackcurrant shade 
Scarlet Siren which is a a bright red 
Pouty Pink which is a bright pink and then there is the 2 I decided to go with which are Peachy Keen and Totally Nude 


Peachy Keen is a Peachy coraly shade with pink undertones If you have pigmented lips this will look more on the pinker side than peach.  I found this shade quite sheer but buildable and very very pretty for an everyday wear lipstick 
Totally Nude:  Don't judge the lipstick buy the tube honestly this is not as pale as it looks so all you pale girlies don't be scared because this will not wash you out.  There is a slight tint of pink in this nude lipstick which is probably why this doesn't wash you out.  Again this is sheer but buildable 

I have to admit I might have had alot more expectations for these lipstick than I admit as I presumed the fact that they are matte, they were going to be booming with pigmentation.  I hate to admit it now but I was wrong.  I think I picked the sheerest shades out of the 5 as they are the lightest shades but I did expect more pigmentation from them than what I got.  
My first impressions where not at all great either because when i first applied these to my lips they felt and looked greasy.  They also looked patchy which disappointed me.  
Then I tried the lipsticks after ex foliating my lips and apply a bit a lip balm and they applied alot better plus looked better on the lips :)  
I also found them non drying while wearing them which is always a bonus when it comes to matte lipstick they last pretty well too.  


For a £1 lipstick these perform pretty well for a matte lipstick.  I think If you are not into deep matte shades or if you are trying to introduce yourself to matte lipsticks they are perfect for you.  Me?  They will not replace my favourite matte lippies but they are a not a no no for me either after all they are super affordable and handy to have for an everyday lipstick :) 
Have you tried these yet?
Until next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter 













I love love love hearing from you all :) I make it my duty to read each and every one of you comments and every time i get a comment from you it highlights my day thanks so so much to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

MUA Smokin Palette

Hellooo My Beauties How are you all today :) 
I am super dee Dooper Now that I have another product rave for you :)  Ok Ok I may be spoiling the review already by telling you this but I am too excited :) :) 
MUA is one of my most favourite affordable brands and as you know I have quite a few products reviewed from this brand but the moment something new comes in I just have to try it out.  Well MUA announce a little under 2 weeks ago that they just released 2 brand new palettes one was this one which is the Smokin Palette and the 2nd is the The Matte Ever After Palette which I too bought and will review soon :) :) 
They also released a few more items which of course I just had to try out :) 
Today I am sharing with you the Smokin Palette as this is the first one I had to try out first the Jewel toned shades were just calling out to me to try :) 

Ok The packaging is basically the same as all the rest of the MUA palette black plastic with clear lid to see the shades :) :) 
Inside you are getting 10 eyeshadows and 1 eye pencil all for as little as £6/€7.11.  What I Love about this palette is each shade has a name  
You can purchase this straight from the MUA Store 

As I mentioned above there are the total of 10 eyeshadows and I love how big they are in this palette for the price you are getting 10 generous sized eyeshadow which are going to last a long time.  Starting with the top left size you are getting :
  • Glory:  Which is a perfect cream nude shade and the best thing about it is that its matte.  This is perfect for blending out harsh lines, as a base and as a matte highlight This shade is super pigmented for a nude shade I love it 
  • Bourdoir:  This is another perfect nude shade and again matte.  Its a nice peachy creamy shade and almost none existant on the skin a perfect shade for blending out harsh lines and to use as a sheer highlight 
  • Ghost:  oh I am in love with this shade really I am.  The shade is a beautiful jewelled toned taupey shade.  I have already worn this on the lid and it looks amazing and catches the eye easily.  The pigmentation from this shadow is amazing more than amazing its shocking a little goes a long long way :) :) 
  • Fantasy:  This is another Matte shade for us all A deep brown.  I do detect a slight mauvey undertone to this shadow which is quite a surprise as it looks like a simple chocolate brown in the pan.  This is super pigmented and very very easy to blend.  A perfect crease and outer corner shade 
  • Mythical:  This is described as a Black Charcoal on the site to me its a very very good Jet Black shade and whats great about it is that its matte.  I was especially worried about this one as noramlly matte black from an affordable brand is hard to work with.  This shade take very little effort to work with.  What I love about this is using it with a damp liner brush and using it as a liner WOW the pigmentation is unbelievable and easily mistaken as an actually liner 
  • Broken:  Oh here is another favourite of mine I love love love it and its a perfect shade for Autumn.  A Beautiful metallic brown is what you are getting out of this shade, there is also a slight burgundy undertone to it LOVE IT 
  • Icon:  Oh another favourite of mine .  A deep metallic purple.  Purple are my favourites what can I say but this shade is out of its world.  Its pigmented easy to blend and amazing :) :) 
  • Unleash:  Oh wow if you are a fan of blues this is a shade and a half for you.  This is a stunning metallicy ink blue so bright and fabulous and amazingly pigmented 
  • Choas:  Yet another amazingly pigmented and fabulous shade a deep emerald that will be perfect to used on the lid and as a liner.  Love it 
  • Wicked:  A Deep metallic Grey again very pigmented very easy to blend and oh so gorgeous for a night out :) 
Unfortunately I didnt get a swatch of the eyeliner itself as I broke the nib of it the day I was taking the pictures but its literally a simple black kohl pencil.  Its very very creamy and perfect for using as a base for any of the shades especially applying either Icon Unleashed or Choas over it wow the shades are amazing :) :) 
And here is the swatches :) both in Sunlight (1st picture" and in normal light  CLICK ON THE PHOTOS FOR A CLOSER LOOK :) :) 

I have no primer or base under these swatches just to show you how amazing pigmented each shade is :) 
Over all I am totally amazed by this palette.  I absolutely love the shades and I think anyone who loves smokey eye looks will love it too.  I am telling you now if you haven't already bought or ordered this I high advise you do because you will love it :)  Another 10/10 mark for MUA :) :)  What more is after I had bought this palette I stumbled apon a blog post by one of my favourite Irish bloggers Cherry Sue comparing This brilliant palette to Urban Decay's Smoked Palette and wow each eye-shadow is the exact dupe of UD's Smoked Palette EXACT Check it out yourself :) Bet I have raised an eyebrow or two now eh ?? lol

Here is a look i created playing with the shadows for just an everyday look in the photo I used the shades :  Glory, bourdoir for blending and highlighting,   I used Ghost all over the lid,  I used Broken on the outer 1/3 of the lid and blended inwards,  I used Fantasy in the crease for definition and used a little of Mythical on the outer V I loved the finish and of course wore this look for 3 days solid :) 
The camera washed out some of the shades but you can get an idea of what it looks like and how pigmented these shadows are.  With Urban Decay primer potion underneath there was no budging these shadows all day not a smudge love it :) 


Well thats it everyone thats my rave over with well on this blog post anyway lol :)  Have you tried this Palette yet? 
Until Next Time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter
