Sephora Haul - Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons, New Sephora Pro Brushes n°53-82 and Sephora Bright Future Gel Serum Concealer Review

Hello guys!! I'm back after years. Last weekend I headed to Sephora and I did a little shopping.

I wanted the new Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bon palette and I was right it is beautiful.

 

 

I tested it for a week and using it everyday I can tell you that it is Amazing. You can do multiple looks with it, cool toned, warm toned, colorful...everything. The texture is smooth like the other Chocolate palettes (the first one is still my favourite out of the three though). The packaging is super cute but It could be a little sturdier. I paid 45 euros for it, a great deal if you think you get 16 eyeshadows.

 

Then I bought two amazing new brushes from the Pro Sephora line, the fan n°53 brush is supposed to be used as a foundation brush but I use it to contour my face and it works great and the other one n°82 the one that looks like a wave I use it as a bronzing brush, it is so unique!

 

Last thing I purchased is the new Sephora Bright Future Gel Serum Concealer, it is a gel formula and I picked the lightest shade to hightlight the undereye. It is smooth, high coverage and thin in texture, A+.

 

Thank you for reading my reviews, leave me a comment if you want and subscribe to my blog.

TAG: 30 Days Beauty Blog Challenge: Day 19 - Your favorite look from a beauty guru

Definitely this Kim Kardashian Glowing Gold Tutorial is my favorite! Nic is such a great makeup artist and this look is good for every type of skin color. I like how glowy and shimmer it is. Gold mode is a beautiful pigment by Mac, unfortunately is discontinued.

Do you like more matte looks or shimmery ones?

TAG: 30 Days Beauty Blog Challenge: Day 12 - Your Favorite color

My favorite color is purple. I love it for clothes, for accessories and for a lot of things. I like cool toned color and I like how purple is a mixture of pinks and blues, two colors I love.
I also like purples for my makeup; I have light brown eyes and brown/reddish hair, so purple is perfect for me (at least I think so :D ).

What's your favorite color?

Looks I love #4: Taylor Swift on the Late Show with David Letterman

I love Taylor Swift, her elegance is just undeniable. The gold/yellow tone of this dress brings out the golden of her gorgeous hair and the blue of her eyes. I love the makeup she wears all the time, the winged black eyeliner with neutral tone eyeshadows and the red lip, so old hollywood and surely glamorous.
The only thing I don't quite like about this outfit is the color of the shoes, I would have paired this dress with black pumps, but this is just my taste.

What do you think about this outfit?

Most Worn Summer Concealer: Maybelline NY Affinitone

Hello guys! I want to talk about my favourite concealer, Maybelline's Affinitone Corrector. It's a liquid concealer in a plastic tube, who has a doe foot applicator. It's creamy, It doesn't crease on me and it doesn't leave you with a caky look. I use it under my eyes, around my nose, above my lips and under my chin, then I put over it my MSF in Medium Plus by Mac and I'm good too go. I don't need a foundation after this routine with my concealer and my powder.
I've never seen a review on this amazing Maybelline product and I wanted to give it the credit it deserves. This is my second tube, It says it all...I never run out of makeup products.

Rate: 5/5

Price: 5.49€ on sale in EUROPE.

Most Worn Summer Highlighter: Mac Cosmetics Mineralize Skinfinish in By Candlelight

I bought this MSF when the In The Groove Collection came out, last summer, and I really like it. I used it every single day this summer and I'm using it right now as well.

MSF in By Candlelight

It's a pretty champagne pink color, It can be use as a blush for fair skin but I use it as highlighter because apparently I'm not fair enough to use it as a blush on its own. I use it also on top of matte blushes and they instantly become shimmer blushes.

The shimmer it gives it's not too much, although if you don't like that shiny effect, you should stay away from this MSF too.

Price: 28€ in Europe 26$ in US.

See you later.

Sleek New Shimmer Blush in Sunrise

I won the three new shimmer blushes on Facebook and I love them!!! I only have 4 products from Sleek (the three shimmer blushes: Sunrise, Rose Gold, Pomegranate, and the eyeshadow Storm palette), I can honestly say that for the price, they are amazing. The pigmentation of this blush is incredible, the shimmer it's not too heavy on the cheeks and the color is so beautiful. In the pan Sunrise looks brownish, like a bronzer, but on the cheeks is a beautiful rose color and it gives a natural almost coral flush.

Rate: 5/5

Price: £3.99

MAC Venomous Villains - My Dark Magic Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo - Makeup Look

For this look I used the new mineralize eyeshadow from the Venomous Villains Collection, My Dark Magic.

Lid: I used a white base (Nyx Jumbo pencil in Milk) all over the lid area and on top I used my dark magic eyeshadow wet, first the purple part and then the pink one. I blended it up into the crease a little bit.

Crease: I used Stars n' Rockets Mac eyeshadow (it is a light pink purple with blue undertones). Blend My dark magic with this color.

Browbone: I used Mylar eyeshadow from Mac. I wanted a matte creamy color, because we have too much shimmer already going on. Put mylar also in the inner corner of your eyes.

Waterline: Use a pink pencil on your waterline. I used Benefit Eyebright pencil.

Finish the look with lots of mascara and you're done and gorgeous!

Hope you like this. See you soon.

MAC Venomous Villains - Haul Part 2 - Photos & Reviews

This is the second part of my Mac Venomous Villains haul. Here's the other things I got.

From Left to Right:

- Innocence, Beware! Lipstick: Light yellow pink. It's a Nude with pink undertone. It doesn't make you look like you're dead. One of my favourite nude of all time. It applies smoothly and It's so moisturizing. It's a creamsheen finish.

- Bite of an Apple Blush: Soft coral pink. It's a matte finish, it's opaque and such a pretty natural looking flush color. Great with wearable everyday looks.

- Formidable! Nail Polish: Teal green with pink multi-changing pearl. It's gorgeaous but It's pretty sheer. Needs at least two coats to show up and It's better If you put an opaque color under it.

- Truth & Light Sheer Powder: Shimmer that reflects silver and pink. I'm not sure yet what is its use, I use it on top of blushes to give them a little bit of shimmer. It has a cooling effect which is pretty nice.

Hope you like the reviews. See you soon.

MAC Venomous Villains - Haul Part 1 - Photos & Reviews

I love this Mac Collection...I was shocked that most of the stuff was already sold out after a couple of hours here in Italy. Fortunately I bought some products that I wanted to show you and review for you.

From left to right:
- Mean & Green Nail Polish: Purple with teal multi-changing pearl. Needs at least two coat to show up, but It is such a pretty color.

- Resort Life Lipgelee: Off white beige with pink pearl. It is amazingly pretty but It's a little bit sticky and leaves glitter everywhere.

- Hot House Lipglass: Deep raspberry with pink blue and silver pearl. This is my favourite. It's opaque, goes on smoothly and sparkles like no other.

- Devilishly Stylish Lipglass: Light nude with gold pearl. It's great over any Mac nude lipsticks like: Creme de nude, Myth or Shy girl. It's pretty sheer on its own.

- My Dark Magic Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo: Deep pink with pink pearl / Deep plum with purple pearl. It is so pretty and it shows up best wet with a black base on the lid. No Glitters fall out if you use it wet.

- Briar Rose Beauty Powder: Soft violet pink with pearl. It's a satin to me. So beautiful, it gives a natural pink flush and It's not sheer at all like all Mac beauty powders.

I hope this was helpful...Soon I'll post the rest of the collection I own.

NYX Round Lipsticks - Review & Swatches

Let me tell you first of all that I love these lipsticks. The price is pretty cheap and the quality just amazing.

They are creamy, smooth and shiny. They have different finishes, some of them are frosty, matte or shiny, and I like them all. They last a long time on your lips and they're so pretty to look at.

You can click on the image to enlarge it.

Upside: They are amazing quality for their price and Nyx has a wide range of colors to choose from. The packaging buttom has the color of the lipstick on it, It's really helpful when you're in a hurry.

Downside: I have nothing bad to say.

Rate: 9

TAG: Would you rather? - Beauty Edition

This is my Would you rather!!! I tag every one. :)

1.Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or nice hair and no make-up?

- Messy hair definitely! I have natural curly hair and they're always a little messy, but I like them.

2.Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?

- Have my eyelashes fall out! I could always use false lashes! I don't really like shaved eyebrows, they look weird to me.

3.Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?

- Mac!!!! I love Mac, can't help it. Sephora It's a so so for me.

4.Would you rather wear lipgloss/lipliner look or 80's perm?

- Oh my Gosh! Liploss/lipliner for sure!

5.Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?

- Probably an overdone blush, just because I hate when you can see the foundation line.

6.Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public?

- Biker shorts are kinda cool? ahah

7.Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?

- Weird tan lines that can't be covered...At least It's a natural tan. It would never ever happen to me because I don't get tanned and I don't like to stay out in the sun, It's really bad for the skin.

8.Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair color?

- A bad hair color, you can always re do them in a short period of time. Hair take time to grow.

9.Would you rather have youtube or twitter taken away forever?

- Twitter because I don't really like it...It's useless for me. Youtube is pure entertainment.

10. Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?

- Makeup brushes, mascara is too important, It makes a whole lot of a difference.

Do you like the tag? I hope so.

See you next time.
