Hello loves! So I decided to add some basic items to my makeup collection.
I've heard so much about Urban Decay and for my first shadow palette I got Naked 2. This palette has many natural shades with shimmery and matte finishes and I thought it was perfect for makeup newbies like myself . I could definitely do a simple everyday look to a more glamorous night look with this palette.
The Palette came with a two sided synthetic fiber brush , one side for blending and the other for applying.
The other product I got was a BB cream by Garnier Fructis in the shade deep. I find this perfect for everyday coverage especially if you attend High School or University like me and you want a very natural and modest look. Also it was refreshing to finally find a BB cream that matches my skin tone perfectly and who's "deep" wasn't too light.
The only problem I find with this product is that it's not as moisturizing as I hoped it would be and primarily functions as a sunblock (SPF 20) so I just pair it with my moisturizer and I'm good to go.
Every girl needs an eyelid primer! Before I got this one by Elf I used my MAC concealer .
Honestly I'm still getting the hang of this but from what I can tell so far it's an ok primer. The consistency is clumpy and I definitely have to use the applicator to smooth it out on my lid. But it does help to show up the true colour of the eyeshadow and delays creasing .Finally , I was looking for a nude/ natural lip colour for darker skin tones and I found "Show Me" lipglass by MAC.
I absolutely adore this product an will definitely repurchase when it's finished .
That's it for the review on my recent beauty purchases.
Also Happy Fashion Week,
Adrienne Justine
