BECCA Light Chaser Highlighters

Purchased by Me About 2 weeks ago I posted saying I seriously splurged on the Sephora website, and I finally had some more time to show some more of my purchases! First up today I have the BECCA Light Chaser Highlighters! The BECCA line released 6 limited edition highlighters for face and eyes. They offer fun shades with color shifts within them, so as you move, the color alters a bit. Some are definitely more obvious than others are – but I personally found all 6 to be incredibly beautiful. Even the boxes they arrive in are stunning! They are lighter gold holographic boxes. BECCA released Liquid Crystal Glow Glosses with the same type of boxes (don’t worry – I have 5 of those to show you as well! The compacts themselves fit perfectly in the palm of my hand. They are a shiny gold compact with brushed silver tops.…

Urban Decay Naked Skin The Illuminizer Translucent Pressed Beauty Powder

Purchased by Me I recently went a little nuts on the Sephora website, so you’ll be seeing my haul over the next few weeks. How nuts did I go? Well, let’s just say I’m now VIB Rouge through to December of 2018. I splurged on palettes, lip glosses, highlighters (they had duochrome ones!) and the Urban Decay Naked Skin The Illuminizer Translucent Pressed Beauty Powder. If we’re being totally honest, I saw the holographic case and that sold me. I’m easy and I’ll buy things on a whim over packaging. So what is it? The Urban Decay Naked Skin The Illuminizer Translucent Pressed Beauty Powder is a pressed beauty powder that can be worn all over as a setting powder or in targeted areas on your face as a sheer wash of highlight. I say ‘sheer wash’ because it doesn’t have the super glowy highlight look. It does brighten the area though.…

Ittsē X Love For Lacquer GLAMbition Collection

Press Sample I have an amazing post for you all tonight! The Ittsē X Love For Lacquer GLAMbition Collection! I’m excited about the Ittsē X Love For Lacquer GLAMbition Collection for a few reasons, but the main one being that the #GirlBoss behind Love for Lacquer is my sister in law! I’ve had the pleasure of watching her grow over the last 5.5 years and I’m honestly so proud of her. She’s always stayed true to who she is, and honestly this collection is the perfect example of that. Her early on blog tagline was “All You Need Is a Little GLAMbition” so to see her collaboration with Ittsē is the GLAMbition Collection is absolutely perfect. She’s also a highlighter nut, so to have a collection that consists of products to help you glow is completely her. Ittsē is a newer cosmetic company to the game. I first heard about them 3 years ago…

Gallany Cosmetics

Press Sample from Gallany Cosmetics I am so excited about today’s post! I was recently introduced to a new cosmetic brand, and I’m really confused as to why I haven’t heard of them before! I’m sharing them with you today, and that brand is Gallany Cosmetics! I had the amazing opportunity to select a couple products from Gallany Cosmetics, and I picked out a couple items, and they sent everything shown above. I got a really nice mix of lip products too (and we all know I love my lip products!) We’ll go through each item, then I’ll show you my full face wearing a couple of the items. In total I received a foundation powder (I prefer powders to liquids since I have icky, oily skin), a gel serum concealer, 3 lipgloss shades, 2 creme satin lipsticks and a blush duo. I already need more and have a shopping wishlist,…
