Too Faced's Rock 'N Roll palette

So I've been seeing this palette from Too Faced pop up various places lately,
and when I saw the vibrant, metallic swatches- I knew I had to have it.
A week, eBay purchase, and $34 later- I got it!



The idea behind the palette was to provide shadows & instructions to create 3 separate looks, 
characterized as either Easy (top row), Classic (middle row), & Fashion (bottom row):


Time for swatches!

You can see there are a mix of metallics, satins, 1 matte, and glitters in this palette :)



The larger shadows I would use on the brow bone & inner corners:


Then you have the darker shadows for the lids/crease:


I cannot freaking wait to create some looks with these bad boys.
Have any of you tried this palette?
What are your thoughts?

Coloupop Cosmetics lippie stix & pencil in 'Flawless'

Today I have my last of the 3 lippie stix I bought from Colourpop Cosmetics recently.
Yesterday's was a gloss, today's is another satin.
Here's 'Flawless':

This was the first time I'd used a lippie pencil,
but it worked very well.
Here are both together:



I've never worn this purple-fushia color on my lips before,
but I. LOVE. IT.
In contrast to the other satin I'd tried,
the formula was considerably better with 'Flawless'.
I'm impressed,
as I've been with almost all Colourpop Cosmetics' lippies!

Colourpop Cosmetics Lippe Stix- 'Charm'

I have an interesting lip stix from Colourpop for you today.
All the hippie i've tried from them so far have been matte,
but 'Charm' is a satin.
AND, did i mention, MINT GREEN.
I saw it online, and in lieu of our sudden Springy weather, I thought I would buy it/post it.


I've really liked the lippie six I've tried to far because they were super easy 
to apply.
I don't know if this was harder to apply because of the satin formula or the color,
but it was :/



The color os gorgeous, for sure.
It's not something I would normally wear,
but it was fun to try nonetheless.

The opacity/quality wasn't anywhere near as good as the others I've tried,
so that was disappointing.
I'm convinced it's just a dud, though,
because I've tried 2 others that came with this one-
and they're awesome.


Stay tuned to see those! :)

Beauty Mail ! - Sleek Candy Collection palette

I've had several successes with Sleek palettes in the past.
So when I was browsing and came across this palette the other week,
I knew I had to try it.
The colors are fun and bright-
just in time for Spring around the corner!

This is Sleek's LE Candy palette:




The mineral shadows are all matte, satin, or shimmer.
I cannot freaking wait to try these out.



Here are some swatches!



Has anyone else tried this particular palette?
Rest assured you'll see some looks with these babies soon!
