Rouge Dior Lipsticks Fall 2017

The Rouge Dior lipsticks are stunning, I've yet to try a dud. They are creamy, full of pigment and comfortable to wear no matter the finish. They have a slight floral lipstick scent but nothing overpowering and it doesn't linger for long. These lipsticks are limited edition on dior.com and Dior counters so move quick if they are of interest to you!

Maybelline City Mini Palette Swatches

Maybelline Citi Mini Eyeshadow Palettes Review 

The Maybelline City Mini Palettes are 6 pan eyeshadow palettes that Maybelline launched late last year. They retail for around $14.99 CAD depending on where you live or where you plan on picking them up. I'm wearing the Maybelline City Mini Downtown Sunrise Palette in this video. 

Maybelline Mini Eyeshadow Palettes

The City Mini Palettes from Maybelline are quite mini, great for travel and who runs through a full shadow anyways?! They are about a third of the size product wise of the Maybelline Nudes Palettes. Overall, I'm happy with these shadows. Not blown away, you judge from the swatches! As with most drugstore palettes they do lack some mattes but overall the pigmentation and blendability is good. I always use a primer and apply the shimmers with my fingers. They are definitely less stiff than the Nudes Palettes in texture. These are the best eyeshadow palettes Maybelline has done so far!

Dior Fall 2017 Makeup - 5 Couleurs Eyeshadow

Dior Fall 2017 Eyeshadow

Dior Fall 2017 makeup collection has arrived! The collection focuses on metallic finishes, paired with the colours we know and love around fall. The Dior Metallics Fall 2017 makeup launch includes 2 limited edition 5 Couleurs Palettes. See them in action in my Dior Fall 2017 Makeup Try-On Video. 

Dior Fall 2017 Makeup - Magnetize and Hypnotize Eyeshadow Quads

The Dior Fall 2017 Eyeshadow Palettes retail for $62 and are available at dior.com, Nordstrom, and Holt Renfrew. The formula on these 2 palettes is not completely the same as the other Dior shadows I've tried. I find the mattes are more creamy and pigmented. Overall, I like the shadows, only downfall is the gold in the Hypnotize palette. I assume it's meant to be a glittery topper, I liked it in my inner corner but it had not actually colour. I wish it had a stronger base. 

Dior Magnetize 5 Couleur Eyeshadow "starts from an almost frosted grey to explore a cooler scheme ranging from platinum and silver to fiery charcoal"

Juvia's Place The Saharan Blush Palette Volume 2

Juvia's Place The Saharan Blush Palette Volume II

Juvia's Place has very quickly become a highly sought after brand, thanks to Instagram, some highly influential YouTubers and some crazy pigmented shadows. When they launched the blush palettes I was super excited, I love blush and as a brand that caters to women of colour these caught my eye. 

Juvia's Place Blush Palette Volume 2

I purchased the Juvia's Place Saharan Blush Palette Volume 2, it retails for $18 USD. I'm Canadian so of course I had to pay $9 shipping, total cost was $25 USD, not outrageous for a blush palette, especially because I hoped the quality would be great, just like their shadows. 

Juvia's Place Blush Palette Swatches

Juvia's Place Blush Palette Volume 2 contains 6 shades, 4 mattes and 2 shimmers. All blendable and incredibly pigmented, use a light and and build to your desired look. My personal favourite is the shade Tao. Sola and Zoba make great blush toppers and all shades make great eyeshadows as well!
