Spain Makeup & Beauty Haul #3



Hello everyone!

Here comes another beauty haul...hehe. This one is not too long tho, but, i wanted to show you the latest purchases. Ready?

I'll start with SEPHORA because I have 2 items, the first one is the SEPHORA Blush to go* in number 05 "Miss Flirty"
It is a stick blush with creamy texture and a powder finish. The one I got is a peachy shade with some shimmer. It is not that pigmented but you can build up the color. They have a large variety of colors, as well as hightlighters and bronzers (I think).
Oh! And it is really, really cute.





Also from SEPHORA, I got the Winter Wonderland set of face & eye brushes with a magnetic stand. I actually got this when Christmas was over so it was half of its price. They are very simple but pretty. The set comes with a Powder brush, a blush brush and an angled brush. All in black and gold. This brushes are a lot softer than the ones I got with the Mixology Eyeshadow Palette. I still haven't used this babies but I'm really looking forward to it.




Then is the Grace your Face Green Tea Eye Pads. It comes with 10 pads in the shape of green leafs that soothes tired eyes & help to reduce puffiness.


Another nail polish from Essence. This time I got the Essence The Gel Nail Polish in "On Air!" (44). I can't help myself.


Then I got this Hello Kitty Lip Balm duo because I love Hello Kitty and I can never have enough lipbalms...


And lastly, a makeup organizer. I already have 2 back home. I found this one at Tedi for €3, a lot cheaper than what I usually pay for them. And, it's been helping me to have my makeup organized while I'm here. Love it.



That's it for now! I'll see you next time~!

SEPHORA Mixology "Nude & Fresh Mix" Eyeshadow Palette




"Are you ready for another new makeup experience?
18 fresh and delicate shades for a very cool color cocktails. Blend, mix and shake all these tones to create irresistible looks! With gorgeous shades like pearly beige, metallic bronze, subtle taupe or suave brown, indulge yourself with this < Fresh & Nude > selection... without moderation!"

Hi dollies!

Not long ago, my mom gave me this beautiful eyeshadow palette, and since that day, I've been testing it and pretty much loving it.
It is the Mixology Eyeshadow Palette in "Nude & Fresh Mix." There is another one with darker colors but this one has more natural colors that suit my style a lot more.

This palette comes with 18 different shades in 6 sets of 3 shades each. Apparently it's made that way so you can use the colors on those sets to create your looks but, you can always mix & match as you like.

Ok, let's talk about the packaging first. Even tho I always feel more attracted to super cute stuff, I gotta say I really like this one too. The eyeshadow case is really simple but, it looks clean and kind of... elegant. It's a simple black case with brand and name in gold.
When you open it, it comes with a wide mirror, the shadows and a double tip brush.




Moving on to the colors, this palette comes with mattes, shimmer colors and metallics so, you pretty much have a bit of everything to play with. You can create very natural looks or a nice smokey eye look.
They are pigmented, application is smooth and they are easy to blend. Some of the combinations in those sets are not my favorites but since you have other colors to pair them with, it's ok.
Durability is great as well, the shadows don't disappear on your eyes as the day goes by. Some of the colors do fallout a little tho.

Here are the swatches of the colors. Since they don't have a name, I'll show them as they show on the package, same order, same numbers. Here we go!

So far, I've been enjoying this baby. The only thing that doesn't drive me crazy is the brush, but I will try to use it more to see if I end up liking it.

Until next time~!
