The Balm Nude'tude Palette!

Recently I got a new palette! I had seen M from Emily-Victoria Canham on YouTube using this palette and she was raving about how much she loved it, so I decided to purchase it too! I think this is a great nude palette, maybe for someone starting out in eyeshadow as it's got alot of neutral colours in it. 

These eyeshadows are so amazing and I'd never purchased anything from The Balm before so I am so impressed with this brand! I will definitely be purchasing some more products from there. The eyeshadows in this palette and so bold and pigmented and give really great colour payoff. It's not the kind of eyeshadows you need to be rubbing your brush in all the time to get colour to go onto it, they go on the brush straight away and are really bold on the eye. They show up really well. You also get a shadow/liner brush with this palette as you do with most eyeshadow palettes.

The colours:

Top row - left to right

Sassy - Stubborn - Selfish - Sophisticated - Sexy - Serious

Bottom row - left to right

Snobby - Stand Offish - Sultry - Seductive - Silly - Sleek

I also love the names of all these shades, I think it's a really well thought out palette and I highly recommend it to anyone as it's not too pricey either. It would make a great gift to a friend, sister or your mum! My favourite shades are Sassy, Stubborn and Sexy.

Let me know in the comments if you have this palette and what your favourite shades are!

Rimmel Apocalips Review & Swatches!

Hey everyone!

Today I got my hand on these beauties! So many people have spoken about these and they new version, Provocalips. I have never tried them before so when they were reduced, I grabbed them. I got them in 3 shades and for some reason, I can't find ANY shade on these products!? If you know the shades then let me know in the comments please!

I decided to review and swatch them for you. The brightest colour of lipgloss seems really messy in the picture but these are so so hard to apply without a lip liner! So I would advise using a lip liner first for a neater look.

Swatches:

Lightest shade:

This is proabably my favourite as I love a nude shade on my lips. I think this would look nice on fair/tanned skin as long as you're not too pale so it doesn't wash you out. I don't think it would be as good on super dark skin tones.

Middle shade:

This is my second favourite as it's not too nude and it's got a little spot of pink tones throughout. This could basically go with any makeup look, but not too smokey It's a very girly colour.

Brightest shade:

This is the hardest to apply without lip liner as you can tell in the picture, it's quite messy. Also, this is my least favourite colour as it's very bright (looks more muted on camera). 

The formula of these lip products is different to what I've had before. They're very creamy and long lasting. They aren't too sticky but your lips will stick together a little if you deliberately squish them together. I've got to rate these a 7/10 overall.

Have you tried these?
