My thoughts on W7 Naked Nudes Eye Shadow Palette xx


So today I am talking about the W7 Naked Nudes Eye Shadow Palette.
I brought this one off of eBay from a reputable seller.




The colours of this palette aren't 100% high in pigmentation.
They are very light which makes it so easy for the heaviest of handed person to create a nice light fluent nude look.
This is perfect for the workaholic or student.
Even perfect for the Mum who wants to make a trip to see friends.
I got this for just a little under $10

The colours blend so well, and feel very silky.
I love this for everyday use and has already been added to my makeup bag.

Purple Eye Tutorial


So today I am finally sharing my post on how I did this Purple Makeup Look!


So firstly I have used the maybelline super stay 24hr concealer as pictured above all over my lids.
This will help to create an even surface and hide the veins under the lids.





I have then used three shades. I used the darker purple which is in the first photo through my crease.
I have used the Black from the second photo on my outer v (outer corner in a v shape) to darken the crease line creating more depth and to smoke it out so the colours don't look "flat"
I have then used the lighter purple from the bottom of the 3 photo's all over the lid.
Then I used the dark purple and light purple mixed together on a angled brush to line my lower lash line. Make sure you get as close to the lashes but not on the waterline!

I have used the Essence eyebrow pencil, as pictures in the very top photo, to fill in my brows.
I used the Models Prefer Black Eyeliner on a Bullet Brush to smoke out my colour more on the upper lash line near where I placed the black eyeshadow.
I have then used my Model Prefer Brow Highlight for not my Brows, but my water line to brighten my eyes. Last but not least, I used a Mascara. I have used the MaXfactor Masterpiece MAX.


I have then used a mix of my Garnier BB Cream and Maybelline Fit Me Foundation to create my base.
I used this on a pointed foundation brush.
I blended lightly from the nose outwards.
I forgot to picture this, but I set my base with the Kett Cosmetics Translucent Powder.


I have then used my Revlon Blush in i think 050 Berry Rich


Then for my lips I used my Klara Cosmetics Kiss Proof Lips in 02 with a Models Prefer Lipstick over the top in Fresh Faced.


I hope you have all enjoyed this look!

People for Plants - Full Review xx


Recently, I have been getting myself out there to try some new products.
One of the brands I had spoken to was People for Plants and they were so kind enough to send me a few products! :)

About People for Plants

People for Plants is an Australian, certified organic skincare range that works to help combat women's skin issues associated with climate, age and sensitivity.
It aspires to the highest level of certified organic functional ingredients, sourced globally for their high potency and purity crafted into superb formulations at an accessible price point.

People for Plants are also cruelty free as well as organic. Bonus if I must say so!

People for Plants Body Cream

I received the Sweet Almond, White Tea and Macadamia Body Cream.
The key ingredients of this Body Cream are Sweet Almond Oil, White Tea, Australian Cold Pressed Macadamia Nut Oil, Aloe Vera, and Shea Butter.

I love them smell of this. I can really smell the Tea. As weird as this sounds, it smells natural. I love that. It is really hydrating. I use it on my legs after a bath/shower. A little bit goes a long way so it may take me a while to use the full tube. It has helped with keeping smooth legs. After applying it isn't greasy, which is an added bonus! YAY! Overall, I love this product!

People for Plants Hand Cream

I received the Lemon Myrtle, Camellia and Manuka Honey
The key ingredients of this Hand Cream are, Shea Butter, Camellia and Manuka Honey.

If you follow me regularly, then you know I love my hand creams, and it's very hard to get a good one past me. And this one passes my test! It absorbs quickly without the oily feeling afterwards. I can actually drive a car after using it! It smells so good, and moisturizes so well. 10/10 for this one!

People for Plants Body Scrub


I received the Papaya, Quillaja and Apricot.
The key ingredients of this Body Scrub are Papaya, Quillaja, Apricot Kernel Oil, and Apricot Seed Scrub.

I have a big issue with scrubs tearing my skin. I don't know why, but they do. My worst experience with scrubs was on my face with Clean & Clear Morning Burst.. Ouch! I use this on my legs once a week, to get rid of dry flaked dead skin cells and preventing ingrown hairs.
This product has been great! It doesn't abrase my legs. Which is amazing!

Overall

I love People for Plants. They have won me over and this will be my go to beauty brand from now on. I will most likely even be including these in my Bridesmaids boxes.

Klara Cosmetics ~ First Impressions xx


Once again it is first Impressions Time!!! YAY!

This morning I picked up a package from my local post office from the lovely team at Klara Cosmetics. Once again, from companies that have sent me cute gifts, I must say I am already 100% pleased.

I have not tried the primer yet, but I have tried both of the liquid lipsticks

These liquid lipsticks retail for $29 AUD on their website.
Now honestly, I just seen the price as I was typing this. My first thought was "so damn worth it" so now I will explain why!!

These's liquid lipsticks are very similar to the Australis Velour lips, which I had brought one recently in a Priceline Haul which you can view here:

http://sparrowstylings.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/mini-priceline-haul-first-impressions-xx.html

I loved the velour lips for their colour pay off, but I did have issues with it being uncomfortable, not having good coverage, and being very drying.

BUT, the ones I have received are the complete opposite from this.
They are still vibrant, but they have a very smooth application. It feels like you are applying a gloss basically. It glides on with an even coverage, as you can see in the photo at the top, which was one coat. The colours are somewhat build-able as they are quite pigmented, and they aren't very drying.

I have been wearing mine since I picked my package up.
I dropped the kiddo's at school and Kindy, picked up my package, tried them out quickly for photo's, put the colour 02 on then ate breakie. It has passed the breakie, kissing fiance, and monster energy drink test (monster normally rips shreds through my matte liquid lipsticks or glosses), and I would not be surprised if it lasts until I pick up the kids.

It is already so comfortable to wear.
The colour 01 is a very shimmery, light pink shade, and 02 is a very pigmented almost nude pink. A bit to vibrant to be a nude but getting close to it is probably the best way to describe it. Almost the perfect Bridal colour.

Hope this inspires you to give Klara Cosmetics a try. They are definitely worth the $29!! I can justify paying that much for a good quality product!!
