So last weekend as you know we went to Liverpool for a little break.
Sunday the weather was pretty miserable but we wanted to make the most of it so we went to Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet. For people outside of the UK, Its basically a retail park which has designer labels at discount prices. Its has shops such as Armani, Mulberry, French Connection, Jaeger, Juicy Couture, Michael Kors... You get the picture.
As we were walking round I had actually said how great it would be if there was a makeup shop somewhere among all the brands and just as we were walking to the car, there it was!
As you can imagine I was in my element. It had Mac, Bobbi Brown, Smashbox, Clinique, Estee Lauder and lots of perfumes.
I didn't go mad as we had definitely spent enough and we were rushed for time.
Anyway, on to the fun stuff. I bought my Mac Face And Body foundation in C3 and my Mac Mineralise Concealer in NC25. Not much to say about those, just repurchases! However I'm really excited by my new Smashbox Colour & Contour Palette!
It retails at £80.00 but I bought mine for £56.00 (I know, bargain!)
It comes like a book and you can remove each palette. They both have a hard plastic cover that clicks on top to so they are super handy for makeup artists as you can travel easily with them.
If your interested in buying this, you can get it here at SmashBox
So you get 32 eyeshadows, 3 Blushes, a Contour, Bronze and Highlight powder.
I am SO impressed with this palette. Has a nice mix of Matte and Metallic shades.
Each shadow is incredibly pigmented, soft and finely milled. Even better with a primer.
From left to right we have; Naked, Nectar, Flirt, Vanilla, Drizzle, Ambient, Pebble & Golden Orchid.
Topaz, Sienna, Cinder, Nude, Royal, Blackout, Smoke & Sumatra.
Oyster, Sky, Lavender, Snow, Zoom, Steel, Lilac & Rose Petal.
Ivy, Cerulean, Violet, Papaya, Serpent, Nocturnal, Blacktop & Peony.
Contour, Bronze, Highlight, Carnation, Flush & Rosy.
These face powders are exceptional. Lasted all day and I didn't get any fading for at least 8 hours.
I would definitely recommend this palette. I love it and for the quality and amount of product you get, It's well worth the money.
