Mystery palette? GORGEOUS

Let's admit it, sometimes we are attracted by looks at first! That is what happened with this (sort of?) noname palette that I spotted on a trip this summer. 
It has so many things written on it that I don't know which the brand or name really is, if you know,please comment below, I appreciate it! The neat packaging stole my heart, it is very "extra" and good quality, so far it survived a music festival and a long bumpy ride home. It is intact and prettier than ever.



It will surely make a lovely piece in my collection, but does it work as well as it looks, for the reasonable price it had? Swatches and review soon ❤️

Sleek Palette Haul

   Hello, dears! First of all, I'd like you to know that I am having problems with my Pixiedust Facebook profile....again. It's been quite a war to have them unblock my account last time, and I had the same problem again. Why? Because of course, it is not my real name, it is a make-up artist profile, not my personal one. Oh well! Hope to be able to sign back in and as soon as I have my papers in order (moving cities can be a pain in that way), can start again with appointments *excited*.

   I think I am the last make-up blogger on the interwebs that hasn't yet written a post dedicated to Sleek Make-Up. Also the only one that still hasn't bought the whole collection; was focused on other brands, will get to them soon. BUT! I made up for a part of that mistake recently and purchased some of the famous palettes:

-Au Naturel, it was my first ever Sleek palette a long time ago and I actually finished it completely, except a bit of the matt grey and mustard shades (still, I hit pan).

-A New Day and All Night Long, two seemingly similar palettes, but if you love natural shades, highlight and transition shades, it's really not a bad idea to buy both.

-Bad Girl, had my eyes on this one for a long time. Super intense and ellegant.

-Sunset, this was also an old prey. 

   As soon as I have my phone back from reparationsm I will be able to take more photos, as my current replacement phone doesn't really snap blog-friendly photos. Eventhough millions of girls have posted swatches, I'll do another post with swatches and looks using these palettes.





What is your experience with Sleek Palettes? Which one do you like best?

Lucy Minerals goodies!

   Heya dears! I got yet another package yesterday, from Lucy Minerals! Was anxious to get them, and I have to go to another city for packages that are delivered from outside the EU...but I went anyway, to bring my babies home. I was simply delighted to find so many mineral pigments, awesome colors, ALL of them! I swatched the colorful ones (blushes and eyeshadows) and they are divine, I promise you that! Also got a cute little handwritten card with kind words - LOVE these sweet details!! There are a bunch of foundations/powders, bronzers/blushes, and eyeshadows - two of them shimmery and one glittery (very interesting; dark red with turqoise glitter).

Here are some pics so you can see what I am talking about, swatches and reviews to follow soon!

HAUL: Laura Mercier & Co. with swatches

   Hello there, I hope you are all doing great today, despite the gloomy, cold weather! I am doing pretty ok, just can't seem to wake up too easily...Oh well! Today I would like to show you some goodies I got as a gift. About two weeks ago, some relatives from the USA visited, and they got me some awesome products. I'll just show you and maybe say a few words about them, but I'll properly review and use them in looks in the future, probably. 


- 3 Laura Mercier lip plumpers
- a Laura Mercier lipgloss
- Laura Mercier Shimmer Bloc
- an Artistry lipstick
- 2 Never Accept Ordinary pigments


LM Lip Plumpers:




LM lipgloss (this one is DELICIOUS, tastes like coffee!):




LM Shimmer Bloc:




Artistry lipstick:




Never Accept Ordinary pigments:





I didn't blend anything too much, didn't use primer either, just wanted you to get an idea about the color and consistency. 

I'll get back with more details about these and will show you when I use them, but until then, please tell me your opinion! Have you ever tried these? Which would you be most tempted to try?




Note! Reviews contain my personal honest opinion about the product.

Haul + Eyes of the day :)

   Hey sweets! Yesterday, after I got my package from Mineral Hygienics , me and mom went to the local DM (Drogerie Markt), store that I adore. They have a lot of goodies, large variety and prices more than accessible. I bought a bunch of products there, some that I ran out of/ needed, some that I just couldn't resist (even if I'm low on money...damn!). Here they are, I will review them soon, and I am sure most of you will recognize some of them at least! :D

What I got: 

What mom got:


   Mom got a bunch of mini-size products since she is preparing for a trip, I must admit her alverde shampoo with olive oil and henna smells awesome, I will need to test it soon! :D

Aaand a small EOTD, not very detailed, just some blended colors (no lashes added, no eyeliner, I was lazy...oh and my real lashes are short because I have a sort of 'reflex' since I was a kid, I keep playing with them and breaking them :\ ).

First phase:

Hot pink shade added:



I didn't use any new products different from the previous looks, just the 180 palette, shimmery light lilac from the Ruby Rose palette ad Miss Sporty eyebrow pencil.
