Venus III Pressed Powder Palette ♡

 OMG! This packaging is so cute!!! Whenever the packaging is designed in a cute way, it makes the experience of opening new makeup even better. 

What I Love About This Palette

The color scheme is SO perfect. If I had the chance to create my own palette, these colors would be in it! The packaging is beautiful and sturdy as well.  I've been using this palette for the past 2 weeks, and the colors blend well together and are very pigmented.  Some of the colors can even work as blush or highlight!

                         

  Shades:

♡Beam (lit lilac w/ pink shift - iridescent shimmer)

♡ Beloved (minky lavender brown - metallic)

♡ Bliss (rosewood - matte)

♡ Dreamy (mauve - matte)

♡ Ecstasy (dried fig - matte)

♡ Heavenly (rich rose gold - iridescent shimmer)

♡ Paradise (bright fuchsia w/ blue glow - glow)

♡ Rapture (soft blush w/ blue flash - shimmer matte)

Overall, I think this palette is a great buy because you can create natural or bold looks. The shimmers are sheer, but they are so sparkly and magical. Bliss and dreamy can be used as a really pretty blush! The color scheme is perrfeeccct!! I love it!

Fun facts about Lavender~

♡Back in the Elizabethan times, when baths weren't common practice, lavender was used to perfume clothes and bed linen

♡Lavender is Good for clearing the mind, body and soul as well as Lavender helps support a calm composure and reduces irritability, apprehension, stress, nervous tension, insomnia and nightmares.

♡ The name Lavender comes from the Latin verb, "lavare," which means to wash

Hello♡ I recently got a few things that all happen to be lavender/light purple themed products. (One of my favorite colors and scents). I thought I would share them since I love them all.

Lavender organic hand sanitizer ♡

I bought this while paying at the register at whole foods.  I saw the color and scent and it was automatically an impulse buy. It has a strong clean scent of lavender. I use it to clean my phone as well.

 

Wet n Wild nail polish in shade "Lilac a virgin"

This is perfect for right before bed and super calming. The cucumber one is still number one though tbh.

shoe wishlist and lashes ♡

I have never been good at putting on fake lashes until I finally practiced daily for almost 2 weeks! They probably looked really bad at first, but I still made continued trying!  FINALLY, I got it and I feel like I'm pretty good at it now. 

In order to practice and not spend so much money on lashes, I went on amazon and looked up the cheapest lashes I could find. I found this box of 50 pairs of lashes for only 15 dollars. (They come in different styles too) I recommend these for practicing like I did!  Now that I've tried other brands from the drug store, I noticed that the amazon ones are not as comfortable as others that come with  fewer lashes, but are better quality.

 

So far, my favorite lashes have been these Ardell Eyelash Wispies.  They look natural but still very full and comfortable on the eyes.

 I've been really into press-on nails lately.  I love this set and the color combination.

Does anyone else miss the bebe stores at the mall? I do! I've always liked the style of clothing and the makeup on the models.  Speaking of makeup OMG look at this super cute set that my bff got me! I've never seen this before so I was so happy to get it! (Thanks michelle if you see this lol) 

The eye shadow palette is glittery at the top but once you use the top layer its a light shimmer.

omg bebe mascara! in slick silver packaging

(my grandma gave me this hat lol)

 

I remember seeing these ads on bus stops and billboards.

 Passing by the huge photo of the new "bebe girl" displayed at the mall. I've always loved the style of the photos and the whole vision of the brand.

 

 

 

 I regret not getting this baby pink BEBE backpack at Ross :(

  I love the colors and they have a lot more jewelry with gems right now. I also found a big lavender gem ring at F21!

♡fresh deep hydration facial toner 

i usually wouldn't buy something so expensive but I had a sephora gift card and had always wanted to try it. IMO i think its worth it and really removes dirt and makeup BUT i do want to see if i can find something similar and cheaper when it does run out.

♡Tarte Pretty Things and Fairy Wings Brush Set 

These are super cute and super SOFT! plus they are on sale right now! when I opened them they did smell kind of weird though but after using them the smell did go away.

♡soap and glory brightening concealer stick

This is perfect for days when you didn't get enough sleep or feel like your skin is looking dull.  I've been using this product for years now and I feel that it does brighten my under eyes. 

♡ daydreamer nail polish 

 

 This is one of my favorite nail polish colors! I love the green shift it has especially in the sunlight.
