3 blushes , 1 trio from NYX , 1 trio from WnW , A quad from OZ , a baked eyeshadow from Milani , a roll on shadow from NYX , a gloss from Lancôme and Milani and a lipcolor from NYX .

Too Faced Boudoir palette: Swatches and EOTD

 Recently i received the Too Faced Boudoir Eyes palette . 

The whole naked hype continues , and at first sight you would think "neh , i don't need another palette with just neutrals in it ..." . Well , let me tell you , this tiny cute palette is a great addition to your collection of neutrals . Really!

I'm completely sold to it , it's so adorable and it has really fun colors in it . You can make a sexy "boudoir" look with it , which is always fun ! You can go very neutral with it , just a barely naked look or a dramatic smokey one . 

Too Faced is next to Urban Decay a favorite brand of mine . The colors are very pigmented , but they have fallout . 
 

And here's a look i did with it :

What i used :

TFSI
Browbone to crease : TF In the Buff (Boudoir)
Inner 1/2 of the lid - foiled : Satin Sheets (Boudoir)
Outer 1/2 of the lid - foiled : TF Lap Dance (Boudoir)
Crease and lower lashline  , blended : TF Voulez-Vous (Boudoir)
to help blend Voulez-Vous : Tf Garter Belt (Boudoir)

Urban Decay : Theodora & Glinda Palette - swatches

Hello there ! 
As i mentioned before , i'm the proud owner of some new Urban Decay palettes :D
Urban Decay is still one of my favorite HE brands and when i saw the new limited edition palettes , inspired by the upcoming movie "Oz - The Great and Powerful" , i could not wait to have these !
Theodora is based on the bad witch and Glinda on the good witch . Are you a good witch or a bad witch ? I'm a bit of both i think , because i like both palettes a lot ! 


I like the new style of these palettes . It's the "Build Your Own Palette" system , which i really can appreciate. You can pull out the eyeshadow and replace it when it's empty or if it's a color you don't like.
Also new in these palettes are 2 pans with a duo color . All the other colors are exclusive to the palettes and are full size . Not the big boxes like the book of shadows. They took a lot of space in my stash , so i ended up with depotting all of my BoS's. I prefer the palettes like 'the vice palette" or the "build your own" systems. Much more handy and classy :)
Both palettes comes with a travel size 24/7 eyeliner pencil . "Rockstar" in the Glinda (which was missing in my palette unfortunately ) palette and "Zero" in the Theodora palette and a full size Super Saturated High Gloss Lip Pencil . A bright , true red for the Theodora palette and a light sheer nude color for the Glinda palette. I like the formula of these pencils , they really glide on and gives my lips a nice healthy gloss , without being sticky . It's between a gloss and a lipstick , i would say :D  . I think i need more of these lippencils !
Each palette contains a "Get the Look" card . I paid 40,97€ for each .
A Bargain if you ask me ! 6 full size pans including 2 duo's , a full size lippencil and a travel size eyeliner ( +/- 3/4 of a normal pencil ) : a quick calculation told me that each palette has a value of 125€ . Not bad if you ask me , well done UD !
As usual from UD , some colors are with the wellknown chunky glitter :D . Although i don't mind , some of you do . But let me tell you , since UD reformulated their eyeshadows , you have less fallout from the glitter. But it's still a glitter eyeshadow of course .
So i hope that UD will release more of these kind of palettes , or like "The vice" palette in the future . They are much more handy ! 

Okay , i think the mainthing is said :D , on to the swatches!

First : The Theodora palette :

Contains mainly dark , earthy toned colors . A 24/7 Glide on eyepencil in Zero and a Super Saturated High Gloss Lip pencil in Theodora.
4 singles and 2 duo shades. I'm very bad in describing colors , so i'm not going to do that . But you can find these descriptions on the UD website .

The Glinda Palette :

Mainly light , iridescent colors , a 24/7 liner in rockstar and a super saturated lip pencil in Glinda. 4 singles and 2 duo's .
