Urban Decay NAKED Palette

Morning peeps

I picked the NAKED palette up in Sephora in Vegas. I figured my chances of getting one back home were fairly slim to none, so snapped it up. Like everything else I bought over there, I wish I'd gotten 2! I paid $44 (about £30). Unfortunately, it's almost impossible to find UK info online for UD; I believe you may be able to buy this in HoF if it's not sold out. I am not sure about Debenhams or Boots (sorry!)

I've never been a massive fan of the UD palettes as I often find there's only 1 or 2 shadows in it that I would wear on any sort of regular basis, but this one is jam-packed with colours I could wear every day and it has enough 'rockier' shades that it could be used just as well for evening looks. I also have never used the Primer Potion before (I know, I know), so will be looking forward to giving it a go. First impressions of the 24/7 glide on pencils are that they are super soft and I am keen to get using these too!

I imagine there will be a couple of FOTDs coming out of this in the near future which is why I didn't bother with a billion swatches. In the meantime, you can feast your eyes on these...

Love A xx

Brushes

Jealousy is uh-glee, but it brings me pretty things!

You may have read Katy's (from makeupbykaty.com) recent post on some brushes from Sephora. Well the green-eyed monster got the better of me after I got to check out her brushes when she was doing my wedding makeup, so when I was in the states on honeymoon I headed straight to Sephora and bought some!

Who could resist a brush as soft as a baby Koala's tummy fur?? So this is the Professional Mineral Powder brush #45 and it costs $26 (£17). I loved the chunky handle and its bristles are truly the softest ever. It's a fabulous brush and I wish I'd gotten 2...

This is the Sephora 'Natural Foundation #111' brush and it cost about $30. I assume it's supposed to be used to buff in liquid foundation, but I bought it as a dupe for the MAC 116, to apply my Chanel Bronze Universel cream bronzer with. It's not quite the full round brush the 116 is, but it's softly dense and doesn't make streaks of bronzer, so it will do nicely!

Unfortunately Sephora isn't available to buy in the UK and the US site doesn't ship to the UK. Why, I don't know as the stores are fab. Anyhoo, if you want to get your mitts on these babies, you will need to do some travelling! Sorry....

Nouveau Lashes at Preen Beauty

I had intended on getting these up before I went away for the honeymoon, but my photo editor was playing silly buggers and kept putting the photos on their sides... anyhoo!

I had these done for the wedding and only just had them removed today. They lasted a good 3 weeks almost without shedding any, it's only been in the last 4 or 5 days that they've become noticeably patchy.

So these are the before and afters! My eyes are now back to 'before' and I'm currently trying a lash growth stimulant tonic that I will report back on in a few weeks.

These cost £65 for the full set and would be £30 after 3 weeks for a 'top up'. I had mine done at Preen Beauty, one of the best salons in Aberdeen and I paid for them myself.
