Illamasqua Megapost - Review and Swatches

Hola, hola!

Hoy quiero compartir mi primera experiencia con Illamasqua. Hace un par de meses, me llego un cupón de descuento por mi cumpleaños y me decidí que esa era mi oportunidad! Illamasqua ofrece descuentos bastante seguido y además tienen envío internacional gratis para pedidos sobre las £50, lo cual no es difícil de alcanzar considerando sus precios xD 

Today I'd like to share my first experience ordering from Illamasqua. A couple months ago I received a discount code for my birthday and I though "this is my chance!" They have sales somewhat often and they also offer free international shipping on orders over £50, which is not that hard to reach, considering their prices :P

Victorian Disco Cosmetics - First Impressions

Hey guys!

I have decided to switch up the 90 days challenge a little bit so that it actually feels like a challenge: I'm gonna limit the 90-days posts to my "de-stashing box" looks (which are done with just that, shades that I want to use up) and anything else: reviews, swatches or looks done with other products, is gonna be a regular post, like this one.

So, onto the topic at hand: Victorian Disco Cosmetics!

I received my first order this week and I am super impressed! (You're gonna see a lot of exclamation marks in this post :P)

Easter Sunday LOTD - Day 8/90

Hey, guys!


I'm finally catching up on the challenge!
Today I did a super quick and simple look because my grandparents were coming over for lunch and I woke up at 1PM :P

All I used was a little bit of concealer under my eyes and a bit of foundation to blend everything out. I did rather thick and strong brows, tightlined my top lashline with a black shadow and used a bit of a highlight under my brows and on the inner corner. A little bit of mascara, blush and lip balm and I was done!

After lunch I tried on the Maybelline lip stain I bought recently, but I think I liked the look better without it. Besides, I'm not so impressed. It comes off pretty easily with just a little bit of water or even from licking your lips, which kinda defeats the purpose of a long wearing lip product, in my opinion. The color is lovely, though and if you seal it with a bit of lip balm it lasts longer and doesn't make your teeth pink! 

Product list:

Face: 

Maybelline - Dream Mat Fluid - 21 Soft Beige/Nude

L'Oreal - True Match Concealer - Warm Light/Medium (W4-5)

BFTE - Mineral Veil - Translucent

Shiro - Heart Container blush - Potion

Eyes:

Maybelline - 24 Black Glamour (For brows)

Ardell - Brow Sculpting Gel

Etienne - Eyeshadow trio - Blackstage (black for tightlining)

L'Oreal - Volume Million Lashes mascara - Black

BFTE - Mineral Eyeshadow - Way Up High

Lips:

Maybelline - Color Sensational Lip Stain - 75 Cherry Pop

And that's it! Happy Easter!

BFTE Haul!

I got my order from BFTE today and I am suuuper excited! It took even less time than usual; it's been two weeks since I placed the order. Two weeks! International!

This time I got the "All you need kit" (one foundation, one veil, one blush and three pigments) with their kabuki brush, the color of the week at the time (truffle), a blush sample in "may" and my "365 days" prize. :) All of the other colors I got I already have in sample size, but I felt the NEED (yes, need) of having them full size.

So, pictures and descriptions up next!

Beauty From the Earth Review ♥

I have been ordering make up from Beauty From the Earth for quite a while now, and I think it's time I did a review already. This company is really amazing.

First time I ordered from them, I was a little nervous since it was the first time I ordered make up over the internet (and internationally), but everything went so well that I couldn't help but order again and again and again.

Why are they so great, you ask?

Homemade Mixing Medium / Medio de Mezcla Hecho en Casa

Today I tried making this mixing medium to use eyeshadows wet, and I think it turned out great.

I've tried using my minerals wet before using Visine, but it didn't really work, since once it dried, it would flake to the point were to blow on it, the pigment would be almost completely gone (I'm referring to swatches here, cause I don't think it would be easy to blow on your eye xD).

So I decided to try this recipe, and see how it went:
