Purchase of the week: Urban Decay Electric Palette

If you follow my Facebook and Instagram you probably predicted it but this palette is absolutely amazing! 



I know at first glance it's pretty crazy but these colours are so gorgeous on! I've used it on so many different skin tones and it just looks great on everyone! This is perfect for summer and festival season! It can also be used in your hair and washes out! I'm addicted! :) 



In the pic above I have Fringe on my lid and Jilted underneath from the Electric Palette. I then added Strike to the corner of my eyes, Ambush into the crease and Dope to highlight under the brow! These are from Urban Decay's Vice 2 Palette! 

The Electric Palette is €45 and is available from all Urban Decay counters while stocks last! This is just a limited edition so if you want it now is the time to get it! I know it may seem pricey but my god is it worth every Penny and will last you a lifetime! 

Thanks for reading! :)

Purchase of the week: Urban Decay Eye Priming Potion

I literally don't know what has taken me so long to get this baby but I finally did this week after being so impressed by it every single time I use it on someone in work! 

This product is available in 4 different varieties and I've luckily got to work with each of them! Original, Anti-Aging, Sin and Eden! Greed was another version available but this has been discontinued! 

Personally my fave is the original! Don't get my wrong they are all brill! Especially for the purpose each of them serve but if you don't have any extraordinary requests the original is perfect for you! It's consistency is perfect and it still gives some coverage for red or purple lids! 





The Anti-aging version is a little lighter and needs a minute or two to dry in but the results are also great! It's very moisturising and helps fill in fine lines etc! 


Sin is basically the same colour as the eyeshadow sin! This is quite shimmery and can be used alone or as a base for a shimmery eye look! 



Eden is a concealer based one so it conceals as well as primes! This is for people with visible veins on their eyes, black circles etc! Consistency is heavier! I really like this one too! 




For me it's between the original and Eden but I've stuck with the original for now! 

This product allows shadow to pop right away without having to pack it on! It stops creasing (one of my biggest pet peeves!!) and allows the shadow to stay on all day! 

Once you try this you'll never turn back trust me!!  

This is €21 or €11 for the travel size! It may seem expensive enough but I can't emphasise how great this really is and you only need half a pea sized amount for two eyes, it will last ages and ages! It's available from any Urban Decay Counter! Why not pop into me on Henry street and say Hi! :) 

That's it for now guys, hope you enjoyed! 

Ciao for now,

Purchase of the week: Inglot Matt Lipstick in #425

So I've decided to do a weekly blog post on my favourite purchase of the week! This won't be on makeup alone but anything I buy and find really good or useful! If there's anything you guys are wondering about just let me know and I'll do what I can to get it and try it for you! Any excuse haha! 

As you can see, my very first purchase of the week is on the new Inglot Matte Lippy in #425. This is a gorgeous colour perfect for summer! Inglot's Lipstick is brilliant and this one is no exception! It's matt but not too matt that it's a nightmare to go on, its glides right on, no need for layers and layers as the colour pay off is great! Once it's on it doesn't budge! Of course eating will fade the colour a bit but other than that your safe! 
 






This is €13 and is available at all Inglot Stands and Stores! I'm pretty sure I'm going to have this for a long while as a little bit goes a long way! 

Hope you enjoyed beauties and in future these will be going up every Friday! :) 

Ciao for now!
