Hi all! Don't forget to check out my latest video! It's a makeup tutorial featuring the BE palette created by one of my favorite youtuber BUBZBEAUTY in collaboration with one of my favorite brands! Please check it out and support a girl! I love you all! 

QUICK UPDATE.

Hello everyone! It has been such a long time since I've last posted on here! I'm here to just give a little update if you don't really follow me on social media! But not much has happened honestly. If you didn't already know, I was on a hiatus from my blog so I could focus on my youtube channel. I have been working diligently on my channel! Please check out my latest video if you haven't.

But I have just been working and updating my youtube channel as much as I can. I am so busy with it that I barely have much time to do anything. I really want to come back on my blog and do more posts. What do you guys think? I was hoping maybe I can post outfit details on here instead of make up since my youtube is mainly dedicated to make up? There are a lot of things that have been brewing in my mind and I just really wanted to share it on here. It's really hard to maintain a channel and a blog so I will try to post more on here! I miss just typing out my thoughts and feelings. It is so much easier to type down my thoughts than to actually say it on camera. It's really tough and tedious but it's something I really like doing. I can't wait to show you all more content on my channel and on here. Please stay tune to more posts and videos! I love you all! 

INTRODUCING MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL!

I am extremely excited to announce that I have finally started my Youtube channel! I've been on youtube awhile now but only recently have I started to really want to be a part of the youtube family! I feel like this is a big step in my beauty career! The beauty community on Youtube is so diverse now and big  that I know I will enjoy it! I posted my first ever video on my channel so go and show some love!

MORPHE 350 PALETTE FIRST IMPRESSION!

Hi there! I have another first impression post!

Yes, I know I'm late but I really wanted to talk about this palette ever since I got my hands on it! This palette is sooooo GOOD! If you don't have it, I suggest you to stop reading this right now and go and get it! Well to be honest, this palette is sooooo good that it's always OUT OF STOCK! It does get restocked regularly but you have to be on top of it to get your hands on one! I finally understand why it's constantly out of stock and limited to one person per palette! Luckily, I was able to stop by the store and was able to get my hands on one right there and then. This palette is only $22.99 and it contains 35 pans of different colors! The pan size was bigger than I thought so it will take a long time to finish up! The colors are very pigmented and blends so smoothly! I have been using this palette so much! There's so many variety of looks I can create with this palette! I'm really amazed with the quality of this brand! It's the quality of a high end palette but with a very affordable price. Not only are the palettes good but Morphe is more well known for their high quality make up brushes as well! I own some brushes and it's very affordable with very good quality. I suggest all of you to visit their website www.morphebrushes.com and check out their products. You won't regret it! I wish they would open more stores though. The only store is in Burbank and it's too far for me :( Other than that, I LOVE this palette and I can't wait to continue using it. 

YES! SWATCHES!

These swatches are some of the colors that I really like from the palette. I'm surprised most of the orange shadows are my favorites. Below is a look I created with this palette. 

Lastly, here is a close up of the gorgeous colors! Excuse the mess on my palette. I have been using it a lot! Please do go and get your hands on one if you like the colors you see. Honestly, pictures does not do the actual product justice at all. The real thing looks so much better than any pictures you see online. If you get one, you will not regret it! And I suggest trying their other products. This brand is so well rounded. I am looking forward to trying so much more from Morphe! 

 Thank you for reading! Stay tune for more posts and more exciting news! :)

January Favorites!

Hi ladies!!!! Welcome to another favorites' post! :D OMG! I know I constantly repeat myself when it comes to a monthly favorite's post but why do these months fly by soooo fast!?!? Please tell me why?! Anyways, I didn't have a  lot of make-up favorites this month but more of the skin care products. I don't really talk about skin care products because I honestly never really cared for my face. I mean skin wise. Since it's a new year and a new me, I have definitely been wanting to take care of my face more. With that being said, lets gooo! 

ORIGINS- Out of trouble 10 Minute Mask to Rescue Problem Skin

YES! This mask is everything right now! I don't know where this mask has been all my life! I have been using this mask religiously ever since I got it. I got it 2 weeks ago and I already see progress! Yes! Progress! I have used Origins' masks before and I have always been a fan of them. I don't know why I ever stop. This definitely has helped cleared my skin up a bit. It's not such a drastic change but seeing progress on my skin is definitely better than none. It has a mediciny smell and I can feel the cooling of it on my skin. I leave it on for 10 minutes and wash it off with a wet face cloth. I use it 2 or 3 times a week or just on places whenever I feel like a pimple or something is popping up on my face. This product definitely has a permanent spot in my skin regimen.

ORIGINS- GinZeng Refreshing Eye Cream

Speaking of loving Origins, here's an eye cream for ya! I have always been on the hunt for a good eye cream. I know that it's very hard to find a good eye cream that's going to completely make the dark circles or bags disappear. But I feel like this eye cream has definitely helped a little. Like I mentioned about the mask, it takes time for results to show so seeing a little progress is definitely a good sign. Applying this every night under my eyes has definitely helped my bags become smaller and less dark. I will definitely be continuing to use it to see the final results.

Nature Republic- Aqua Moisture Watery Toner

I have been using this toner every night and it has definitely helped my skin looking a little more flawless :p Even after using my clarisonic, this toner can still clean off the extra makeup that's lurking on my skin. I mean, that is the point of a toner but this combined with my moisturizer just makes my skin feel super clean and refreshed. And the pink makes the bottle super cute as well! 

Too Faced- Born this Way Foundation

I have been dying to try this foundation ever since it came out! So many people were raving about this product so much that I was trying so hard to get my hands on it. After trying it out, I did not like it. I don't know why it wasn't working out for me. I paired it with the Too Faced HangoverRx primer and it was not a good combination for me. It felt so thick and I hate the feeling of makeup on my face. I love a lightweight foundation and for some reason I couldn't make it work. When I was about to give up on this foundation, I decided to use a different brush just to see if that was the reason for the dense application on my face and sure enough, the new brush made it glide on like no makeup was on my face. After that, I've continued to use it again and now its become a favorite.

NYX- Tinted Brow Mascara

I've been using this tinted brow for awhile now and I just keep forgetting to mention it sooooo, I've decided to include this in my January favorites! This tinted brow mascara is pretty good at taming the eyebrow hairs. After discovering brow gel, I can not do my eye brows without it! I really like this one because I love the wand. It's super tiny and can tame the edge of my brows. I used the Anastasia brow gel first which got me hooked on it to begin with but the wand was a little big and it was kind of messy. The Nyx brow mascara is a little harder to use because the product can also become messy but if you use a little at a time, the product will come out nicely. And the affordable price is always a plus ;)

Ardell Natural Lashes

For someone who did not like to use mascara or really cared for the eyelashes, these lashes are starting to grow on me. These ardell lashes are so natural looking that it looks like real lashes! Okay that's a little exaggerating but it really is so natural looking that it's the prefect lashes to wear out anywhere. I have been really into the false lashes lately and I can't wait to start venturing off to more bolder lashes.

Japonesque- Blending Brush

At first I thought this brush was too small to be any good but little did I know, the brush was actually the best blending brush I've used! Next to my real techniques one. My real techniques one was a little big so it was a little harder to blend since my eyes are smaller. But this one, the brush is perfect for blending. I especially like using this one on my crease. The bristles are soft and not too long making it really easy to use. The bristles are  a little dirty because I do use it everyday for my eyes :p
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

This is all I have for my favorites post! Thank you for checking it out! If any of these products interests you then give it a try. These are all of my own opinions so some of the products I mention may work for me and not you. Overall, thank you again and I'll see you in my next post! 

IPSY GENERATION BEAUTY EVENT MAKEUP HAUL

As you can probably guessed from my title, I went to the Generation Beauty event in LA! It felt so surreal that I was finally there! It really feels good to finally be at an event that I had always wanted to go! I got to see a lot of the Youtube stars that I admired. Even though I didn't get to meet them all. And, I also got a lot of amazing products that I hauled home :) Majority of the products that I am going to show are FREE! Well, technically, it's not really free because I did pay to go to the event but, it still does feel good to get to try out so many amazing products!

MAKE-UP PRODUCTS

As you can see, there are so many products! Many products are from brands that I have not heard of before but am really extremely excited to try! Honestly, this is more than a girl can have! There are products from Tarte, Smashbox, Ofra, Pacifica, Pixi, Laneige, City Color, Luxie, Milani, Gallany, NYX, Absolute New York, Pur Cosmetics, Jouer, Make-Up Forever, Essence, Too Faced, and Benefit. I might have forgotten some because there were so many vendors!

HAIR PRODUCTS

I never thought that I would ever have this many hair products but I am sooooo happy and soooooo excited to try! The products pictured includes Marc Anthony True Professionals, OGX, Ouai, Eva-nyc, eSalon, Nume, and Rock your hair. I am super excited to try the Ouai product because I have heard many people talking about the brand and how much they like it. 

FACE PRODUCTS

And I got products for facial care from derma e, Laneige, belif, pur-lisse, and Pixi. I am also very excited to try these facial products because I have been really starting to care for my face recently and I am always hoping to find products that will work for my face.

And lastly, I did get a shirt and a makeup bag signed by the one and only Michelle Phan! I am so happy I got to meet her. She was definitely the first beauty guru that I watched on Youtube. She is definitely amazing and inspiring! She so modest and humble and she is so willing to help others reach for their dreams. 

Lastly, I want to say that I am truly happy that I was able to attend this event. It has definitely inspired me even more to continue believing in myself and continue doing what I love! Thank you all so much for reading! Stay tune for the actual events in a later post! Thank you all! 

DECEMBER FAVORITES!

Hi guys! I still can't believe it's really 2016! It's crazy! So today I am here with a new favorites post! December was a great month! It was my ultimate favorite month because not only is it my birthday month but, it was also Christmas! My favorite holiday! Last month was the month I finally got to try out some of the products that I've been dying to try! 

TOO FACED CHOCOLATE BAR PALETTE

I got this beautiful palette as a gift from my love for our monthsary! I didn't expect this at all! I was so happy because I have been dying to get this palette for the longest! I love that all the colors are in the brownish/neutral shades. It's definitely my go to colors for this season. Which I have been wearing so much. I can create so many variety of looks with this beauty. It also smells like chocolate which makes it even better. Who doesn't want their makeup to smell like chocolate right? After getting this I have been using it religiously along with all the other products I've been loving! 

KAT VON D EVERLASTING LIQUID LIPSTICK IN "LOLITA"

Honestly, I don't know how I was finally able to get my hands on this liquid lipstick from Kat Von D. Every single time I go to Sephora or looked on their website it was always sold out. It is such a beautiful color. It's also a very raved about product so it's no surprised that it was always out of stock. Surprisingly I got this on Sephora's website on Black Friday. I was so glad that of all days, the busiest day was when they had it in stock. I have been obsessed with liquid lipsticks. It stays on my lips so much longer than a regular lipstick does. The formula is kind of sticky to me but it's not too bad. I forget I even have it on. The shade is a pink mauve color which I have been loving! After wearing this on my lips for a whole month, this is hands down my favorite liquid lipstick until I find one that will top this one.

TOO FACED FRENCH KISSES MELTED LIQUID LIPSTICKS

MELTED CHIHUAHUA, MELTED METALLIC PEONY, MELTED BERRY, MELTED METALLIC MACARON

I got this cute holiday set from Sephora for only $25.00! Usually one is already $20.00 and it's not really even that much bigger. This set comes with the two new metal shades along with the original melted ones. The colors are so pretty and very vibrant as well. 

I love the application of this liquid lipstick. It's very pigmented and easy to apply. The applicator is very easy to use as well. I have been wanting to try these lipsticks for so long. It was definitely worth the wait in my opinion :) 

TARTE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT BRUSH SET

This brush set was such a great investment! These are definitely high quality makeup brushes. It's no surprise coming from Tarte. I use all the brushes everyday! I first bought this brush set only because of one brush but when I started using all the brushes I've come to like them all! There are five brushes altogether as you can see in the picture above. A foundation brush, stippling brush, concealer brush, eye shadow brush, and a blush brush. The gold exterior design makes these brushes look super chic which I love! It also comes with a sturdy makeup case which I know I will probably take with me when traveling! The glitter design is so cute. I just love Tarte's holiday collection's design this season. 

REAL TECHNIQUES FINE LINER BRUSH

This brush has been a really good tool for creating my winged liner. It creates the sharpest and most perfect winged out liner for me. I use my Tarte's tariest clay paint liner and it just goes so well together. I really liked the brush that came with this eyeliner but then this real techniques one is so much better. It's probably because the handle is longer making it easier to use. The brush hairs are also a little thicker so I can apply more. The brush that came with it was a little thin so it took me forever to do my wing liner. Overall, I love this and I am going to continue using this as my eye liner brush.

ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS SELF-MADE PALETTE IMPRESSION

It's another impression post! I'm so excited! I'm sure everyone has already talked about this palette but I want to also put my impression of this palette out there. This was my first purchase of any Anastasia palette. When I saw that this palette was coming out, I was so drawn to the colors. I don't know why! The colors just looked so beautiful. Take a look!

-

When I saw her earlier palettes I wasn't really into the colors of the eye shadows even though everyone was raving about it. But when I saw this one, I knew I wanted to buy it.This palette is $35.00 with 14 pans of eye shadows. It's a variety of mattes and shimmers and I just love it! Such high quality eye shadows. It stays on long and is so pigmented! I can create so many different looks with these colors. It also comes with a very nice double ended brush and a decent size mirror. I don't use the mirror very often anyway so the mirror size is fine with me. The brush is really good though. No lie! I of course use it only when I use this palette because it blends the shadows so well. 

-----SWATCHES OF THE  EYE SHADOWS-----

Overall, this is a beautiful palette and so worth the investment! I don't really invest in eye shadow palettes unless I know that it's pigmented and really high quality. I constantly grab this palette every time I do my makeup. Even if it's just to use one shadow. I love it! Go get yours! You won't regret it! :)

THANK YOU.

Hello everyone,

Today's post is quite different from my regular posts. I wanted to share something kind of personal to me. First of all, I just want to say thank you. Thank you to all of you who actually click on my link and read my blog. I really appreciate the support. It means so much to me! Thank you to my girlfriend for all her support on this blog. Without her, there would be no blog. I started this blog out as a hobby. A hobby that I really enjoy and love. I wanted to continuously put up content about the one thing that I really enjoy talking about. Now that it's a new year, I've been thinking about what to do with my life, career wise. I felt like I've been really lost. I didn't really have any goals. I never thought I would ever felt this way. I went to college but I didn't even know what I wanted to be. I felt like I was going to school for nothing. I've come to realized now that that reason I didn't have a favorite subject in school was because my passion was all about makeup. It may be funny to some but not to me. I was always scared to admit that this was my dream all along because as a Hmong woman, and like any relatable Asian family household, we are taught to become doctors, nurses, lawyers, teachers, etc. All the norm of an Asian woman's career got to me but I knew deep down that I was different. And always have been. I was looking and chasing to become someone that I know I will never become. I now know that my passion is this blog. And so much more. It's about beauty and makeup. Last year made me become more passionate about my dream and wanting to pursue it. I want to continue posting more and venturing off somewhere else. I want to make my dream come true. My hope for 2016 is to finally be able to pursue and fulfill this dream of mines. I don't know what is going to happen but I know I can make it happen if I try really hard. This is a new year and a new me. I'm super excited! I have some stuff planned and I can not wait to start soon! Thank you everyone for taking the time to read this. I would appreciate it so much if I continue to have the love and support from all my readers! Thank you all so much! And I want you all to have a terrific start to this new wonderful year! 

UNBOXING- BEAUTYCON BFF WINTER BOX!

Hello everyone! This is my last post of the year! I can't believe it! This year was definitely amazing! There were so many things that happened and I can't wait to see what 2016 is all about! For my last post of the year, I am introducing a new subscription box on the blog! As much as I love my Ipsy subscription, I wanted to venture off into more beauty subscriptions.I have tried 4 different subscriptions and I've loved every one of it. But as someone who loves experimenting with new products, I like to try out new things. With that being said, I want to introduce the Beautycon Bff winter box! This subscription box is $29.00 seasonally so you get 4 boxes throughout the year. One for each season. This winter box was specifically curated by Youtube sensation Bethany Mota! So basically, each product in this box was personally picked out by her! I really like her sense of style and personality so I know I liked this box. The products in this box is amazing and there's so many stuff! Please continue reading if you want to see what's inside! Lets start!

1) NIKE $20 GIFT CARD & AEROPOSTALE $10 GIFT CARD

I was not expecting two gift cards in here at all!  It's cool how these two gift cards already add up to the amount of this subscription box! The Nike box is so small and cute! :D I just find that the value of the products in this box costs so much more than the price we actually pay for. I can't wait to go shopping :p

2) REVLON HD LIPSTICK IN SHADE "OBSESSION"

I am so happy that I got this in my box! It's the new Revlon liquid lipstick and I've been wanting to try it. This is a really bright and intense color so I don't know if I'll be able to pull it off. It is such a pretty shade though. I'll have to see how it goes. With me being a sucker for any lipsticks, I will make this work!

3) MINNIE MOUSE EARS AND TATTOO STICKERS

I love this! It's sooooo cute! I probably won't be using the minnie mouse ears so much but I'm really tempted to use those cute jewelry inspired tattoos. I have been wanting to try out these kinds of tattoos so maybe I'll give these ones a try.

4) SOAP AND GLORY HAND CREAM

I have always wanted to try any Soap and Glory products! I was not expecting much from a hand cream but I really like this one. First of all, it smells sooo good! I love a good hand cream smell. And second, it makes my hands so soft. During the winter my hands tend to crack and it really hurts. This cream is so nourishing and cools it down and it's also not greasy at all. I love it! It's also so little so I like to carry around :p

5) GARNIER FULL AND PLUSH ROOT AMP

I love my hair and I love when I get things for my hair! I just wish I can use it more though! I don't really style my hair much  but with this product, I am going to love styling it more! I really do like Garnier's products so I'm excited to try this out.

6) MAYBELLINE THE FALSIES PUSH UP DRAMA MASCARA

I have been wanting to try this one so bad and I am so happy I got this in here! The brush for this mascara looks really unique and I'm so excited to try it out. Since I'm really liking mascaras these days, I always like to try and use different products. Who knows, maybe this one will be a favorite of mine.

7) MURAD HYDRATING TONER

I have tried Murad's products once. I had a membership at a Massage place and I tried a professional facial with their products. It felt really nice because I had a nice face massage and all my pores were cleaned. It felt really nice and I really wanted to try more products from Murad so I'm excited for this one. I don't really use toners but I like that it's a sample size so I can just try it out.

8) ESSIE NAIL POLISH IN SHADE "MARSHMALLOW"

I honestly love white nail polishes! This one will definitely not look like I put highlighter on. It has a little yellow in it so it's not too white. It makes my nails look long and sleek. 

9) COLOURPOP SUPER SHOCK HIGHLIGHTER "STOLE THE SHOW"

Yay! Another colourpop product! I love love love colourpop! I'm just mad that my colourpop highlighter kind of broke. I don't know if you can tell but the product kind of got smashed :( I tried to put it together but it won't go back to its original look. But I do love colourpop's highlighter because the quality is just so good. I especially like how my highlight looks  under the powder highlighter. It just really emphasized my highlight. I'm super excited to use this one. 

10) GOLD DIGGER NOTEBOOK SIGNED BY BETHANY MOTA

This is so cute! Goal digger! I use to love writing in notebooks. I used to be a diary girl where I write down my thoughts and feelings. This notebook will be a great start to start writing again. I also love that it's signed by Bethany! It's so cool. I love it! I really liked this box!  I'm very excited for the spring box and I can't wait for it! :D

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR CHECKING OUT MY POST! THIS IS MY LAST POST FOR 2015! I'M SO EXCITED FOR THE NEW YEAR! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT 2016 HAVE IN STORE FOR ME! I DEFINITELY WANT TO POST MORE NEXT YEAR! PLEASE CONTINUE TO FOLLOW ME BECAUSE I HAVE SO MUCH MORE TO SHOW YOU ALL! THANK YOU AND HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR!

LORAC- MEGA PRO PALETTE 2 FIRST IMPRESSION

Hello everyone! I'm back with another first impression post! It's the Lorac mega PRO palette 2! AHHHHH!!!! I'm so happy!!! For some reason I did not hear about the first mega palette and I was bummed that I never got my hands on one! There are so many holiday palettes coming out this season that I was so indecisive about which one I should get. I decided to get this one and I am so happy I did! I am so thrilled! I have been using this palette right when I got it. There are 32 different colors and I just feel like I can create any looks with it. I am a huge fan of Lorac's make-up line so I knew I was going to love it! There seems to be mixed reviews about this palette though. When I first saw that this palette was going to come out, I was hesitant to get it because I didn't like the colors as much as the ones I saw in the first palette. But as I continue to do my research I started to like it more and more. I saw gorgeous swatches of the colors and I was drawn to it more and more. I knew I had to get it!

Here is a close up of the colors. I've had this palette for a while now so you can see that I have been using some colors. Of course I couldn't wait because I was so eager to try them! I love the packaging. It's like all of Lorac's packaging with a simple writing in the front. Of course I've mentioned before that I didn't really like the texture of Lorac's products because it gets dirty pretty quickly. It's hard to maintain the quality of the exterior but I'm more in it for the colors than the packaging. The price of this palette is $59. Not bad at all for 32 different colors that are good quality. Lorac's shadows never disappoint me. The palette is a little big but still perfect enough to travel with in my opinion.

 

Here are swatches of some of the eyeshadows. Isn't it beautiful? The formulation are so buttery like all of Lorac's eye shadows. 

I love this palette! There are just so many beautiful colors and it's so pigmented. Go get your hands on one if you haven't already! Get it before it's gone! You won't regret it! :D

BECCA- CHAMPAGNE GLOW PALETTE FIRST IMPRESSION

Hi everyone! Today I will be talking about the BeccaxJaclyn Hill champagne glow palette! This is a limited edition palette that features the infamous shimmering skin perfector "champagne pop" highlight by the one and only Jaclyn Hill. If you have not heard of this highlighter then where have you been?! I have been beating myself up trying to decide if I really wanted the "champagne pop"  highlighter because I heard so many good things about it and so many people are using it. And then I heard that this palette was coming out and I knew I had to get this one instead. It was the best decision ever! It not only comes with "champagne pop" but it also features two more colors. "pearl" and "blushed copper". Both of the colors are amazing! I have been using all three colors and I just love it. The pan size of this palette are a smaller but a little goes a long way with these. When I saw this palette I was in awe at how beautiful it was. The gold packaging got me. It is $34.00 and it is so worth it. If you are debating about getting this palette, go and get it! I think it's totally worth the hype not just because of Jaclyn but because this is a good quality makeup product. It is totally worth the investment. You won't regret it!

I only recently discovered Jaclyn Hill's channel but I already love it. I keep up with her videos every time she uploads one. Her videos are so good and I can see that she's very dedicated in making sure her subscribers get only high quality videos. That is why she's so inspiring and many people subscribe and follow her channel. 

 This is my very first Becca purchase and I really do love it! I have been obsessed with this palette ever since I got it. I have been using all three shades religiously. I combine the pearl and champagne pop as my highlight which I'm sure everyone does. And, I use the blushed copper as my blush. At first I was a little hesitant about this blush because it looked so dark. But, it wasn't at all. I mean it is a little darker but I'm sure if you find a way to work it, I know you'll love it. I feel like this palette gives me that summer glow. I love it. I know it's Fall now but I'm still really liking the bronzy and glowy look!

Here are swatches of the colors. The formulation of this product is so soft and smooth. If I own more of Becca's products maybe I'll know if all the products are formulated similarly. But I'm sure it is. I really hope they are still selling this palette because you really missed out if you couldn't get your hands on one! Overall, you can probably tell that I love this palette and it's definitely a good investment this holiday!

BH COSMETICS- CARLI BYBEL 14 COLOR EYESHADOW AND HIGHLIGHTER PALETTE FIRST IMPRESSION

Hi everybody! I am so excited to talk about this palette! I did mention in my previous post that I will be blogging about a palette I got from BH Cosmetics. It's the Carli Bybel palette! I discovered Carli's youtube videos only a couple months ago and I am truly amazed by the quality of her videos. Her tutorials are very good and easy to follow. I love that her videos always start with a quote. It is very inspiring and gets you motivated. She got me into BH cosmetics and I discovered great quality make up for such an affordable price! Carli's palette was launched on September 8th I believe. It was so crazy because after it was launched the site crashed and it was all sold out :( I stayed up so late trying to get my hands on it but it just wouldn't go through! But two months later I finally got my hands on it and I love it! The launch price was $12.50. I don't remember if that's the price they are sticking with but I think that is a very good price for this palette. It is very affordable and everyone can get one if they want one. The design of this palette is so cute. A white colored palette is very different from a lot of the palettes out there. The palette is very light and I think it'll be a great travel size palette to bring along with me when I go places. I was just a little disappointed that the palette had a small torn on the side. The quality isn't as sturdy. But it's not very noticeable so I don't think be that much of a problem. Overall, I am very fond of the colors and I know I will constantly reach out for this palette.

I love the colors of this palette. It's natural and very wearable. There are 10 eye shadows and 4 highlighters. It goes great alone or as a base for darker shadows. It's super pigmented and blends so well. There are fall outs from these eye shadows but what eye shadows don't have fall outs? I like that there's a nice size mirror to look at yourself with. it's not too small or too big. 

Swatches of the eye shadows from the second row. Theses are more of the nudey and browner shades. I love the shimmer that these eye shadows have. It's not too shimmery so don't worry about looking like you have glitter all over your eyes. It's very subtle. 

Swatches of the eye shadows from the top row. These are more of the pink and muave shades. I love this row. I think I'm just obsessed with the muavey colors this fall. It just goes well with everything in my opinion.

Here are the swatches of the highlighters. I love it! I think the quality of these highlighters are very good. I've been really into highlighters lately so I know that I will constantly use good highlighters if I have them. I don't care if it's winter, I still love my highlighters!

As you can probably tell, I love this palette! Everything about it is just so good! I'm so happy she created such an everyday palette that people can constantly reach for. It's also very different and unique so I'm very happy I got it. I think the palette is still sold out on the BH Cosmetics website but, I'm pretty sure it's coming back real soon! I was constantly checking the website everyday and boom! I got one. I know you make-up lovers are going to love this one. I know I do!
