My favorite MAC eyeshadows!

When I saw Michele's (Michele1218 on youtube)  video on her favorite MAC eyeshadows I went through my collection to see which ones were my favorites..

With flash

First we have my everyday quad, in this quad I keep - Vanilla, All that Glitters, Mulch, Embark.

Vanilla is my all time fave highlight, it has a vanilla/milky colour that has just a slight slight satin finish.

All that Glitters I think you are all familiar with by now ;P it's a gorgeous pink/champange colour that's the most easy everyday lid colour ever.

Mulch is a darker brown with golden shimmer and it makes the perfect soft brown smokey eye.

Embark is my all time favorite eyeshadow ever! It's an absolutely amazing colour for just some definition around your eyes. Why I love it so so much is because of the redish undertone, it just makes my blue eyes pop without me having to wear red, pink or orange! Everyone with blur or green eyes should invest in Embark, makes such a difference along your lashline!

Next we have- Bronze, Shroom, Woodwinked, Sketch

Sable, Antiqued, Mystery

Bronze is just that perfect high shine bronze colour, nothing really unique about it but still the softness of it and the colour is just so pretty.

Shroom is the highlight I go for when I want that extra umph in my inner corners. Shiny milky colour.

Woodwinked I also think you're all familiar with by now, such an amazing gold/bronze! It's my #1 summer colour, so effortless and pretty.

Sketch is that darker colour that is just something different than brown but still very soft as it has warm plum undertones that doesn't show up as straight up purple. Gives a plum tone to your look and goes amazingly with blue or green eyes.

Sable is also one of those effortless colour that you just slap on and then you're done. Gorgeous medium brown with plum/pink undertones.

Antiqued is a really coppertoned bronze that is just gorgeous on blue eyes and looks absolutely amazing with a tan. Your eyes just pops!!

Mystery is for when I want a more cooltoned defined lashline or look overall. It's just for when I need a change from all the warm colours I tend to use =)

What are your favorite MAC eyeshadows? =)

Fall/November Favorites..

The Body Shop Candied Ginger home fragerance oil, Body butter AND shower gel - Such a beautiful sweet and sour and christmasy and all that yummyness you want in a scent! I'm completely obsessed!!

Loose glitters (for nails mostly) and particularly MAC's Reflects pearl (on top of the stack in a sample jar)- It's so much fun with glitters on the nails. Try it if you haven't!

Christina Aguilera perfume "by Night" - I had forgotten that I had this in my perfume collection but since my CLEAN outdoor shower fresh ran out I needed a new fave atm and this one is just so nice and warm, sweet but sofisticated but not too sofisticated lika an old lady perfume. It's just perfect for fall/winter =)

MAC Constructivist paint pot - This is the perfect base for a brown smokey eye (what I've been going for atm), perfect underneath Mulch e/s. this is a staple cream shadow EVERYONE should have!

Ge liner (any gel liner really) atm MAC's Blitz & Glitz - I've just been enjoying the classic winged liner a lot this fall/november, so easy and pretty..

MAC eyeshadows in Mulch and Embark - Much is that perfect all over brown smokey eye colour (medium/darker brown with golden shimmer) and Embark is that perfect everyday definition eyeshadow (matte dark brown with red/warm tones to it) especially for blue and green eyes as the red tones in the shadow really make the eyes pop.. These two shadows are also staples EVERYONE should own ;P

What products have been your favorites?? =)

Amsterdam haul- INGLOT COSMETICS!

Since Sweden is like the ONLY country in Europe that doesn't have an INGLOT store I had to take the opportunity of going in to the one in Amsterdam. WOW, I was so overwhelmed! I went in like a kid in a candy store not knowing where to start. I was so careful when touching the products in the beginning you could have thought I was handling diamonds! Then when the girl working there gave me the magnitized tray to start picking colours for my palette I got more comfortable and really enjoyed it, haha.

I went fore a 10 piece square shadow palette, a duo square shadow palette, and a gel eyeliner.

Now when picking colours for my 10 piece palette I wanted colours I could use every day, that I could build up, that I could match with almost any other colour, AND that I could use for working with brides.. This is what I came up with:

I went for a lot of mattes cuz it's the most flattering on brides I think =)

Then I went for a duo with 2 blues. I quite often wear blue under my eyes but I haven't had anything to match my pencil eyeliner I use. So I found these guys and MY GOODNESS I fell in love! I also fell in love with a plumish brown gel eyeliner, gorgeous!

Look at that! Such pretty colours.. And the last picture is when I've taken a facial cleanser and a scrub-sponge and tried to get the liner off.. Stayed on  even trough that. Also a tiny bit of the shadow in the right corner stayed on. Pretty amazing i must say =) A review of the shadows and the gel liner will come, ones I've tried them out more =)

 I can't wait until we get a store here in Sweden.. We just MUST get one! I will CRY Otherwise!

NYX Haul - Soo much stuff ^^

So when CherryCulture had their 20% off of everything ins tore I went for it! I been wanting NYX lipliners for soo long, and when I picked them out I got a little carried away.. hehe

Here's what I got =)

Eyeshadows in - White, True Taupe, Hawaiian coffee, Lake algae

As you can see, the matte white doesn't show up at all! But I kinda' didn't expect much anyways.

True taupe, is really as you can see a nice taupe colour.

Hawaiian coffee is a very deep dark chocolate brown, very nice.

Lake Algae is just a gooooorgeous true green green colour.

All of these were suppossed to be matte, but the True taupe and Hawaiian Coffe has a satin finish :/ Oh well, they're gorgeous anyways.. =)

Lippencils in - Mauve, Natural, Nectar, Coral

Cherry Culture lip balm (free with every order)

Blush in Taupe

Soft Matte Lip Creams in - Tokyo, Stockholm

Swatches in same order as above!

As you can see the Taupe blush looks like it would be a great contour colour as it's not as red/orange toned as many other contour colours. This will give more of a natural looking shadow..

When I swatched the lip creams they felt soft and smooth and when I blended the two colours together it made such a pretty natural pinky/mauve colour..

More to come when I've tried the products more =)
