EOTD: Feeling Feline

Goodmorning! How are you?
These last few weeks have been so weird. First, a lot of sun, then two weeks of rain, ...
This eye of the dayis a look that I created during one of those rainy days. I used my "Balm Voyage" make-up palette and my "Nude Tude" palette by The Balm to create this look.
 I'm a huge fan of The Balm and their products, and I use them on a weekly basis to create looks.


Let me know what you think in the comments below! 


Thanks so much for reading! I'll see you on Saturday!

EOTD: Stormy weather

Don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
....


I drew my inspiration for today's make-up look from Etta James' song. I don't work with gray colours very often because I simply prefer wearing gold/orange/brown/nude shades, but I do like the change, for once!


I used my "Balm Voyage" palette for this look. It's my third palette by The Balm and I am still very convinced of its quality. I put on some eyeliner and mascara as well (by Essence, as always).

EOTD: A dark trip

A new year, time to try out some new things! Back in the day, when I was still a make-up rookie, I didn't like to use many products or dark products. Experimenting was not my thing at all and playing safe was more my cup of tea.

Recently I've been trying a lot of new things; different brands, different techniques, different colours, different styles,... Today's looks is a rather dark look. I didn't know where I was going with this look when I picked up my palette by "The Balm", and I just used the colours that caught my eye.


The look turned out a little darker than I expected, which is okay. I do love the colours that I used though. A little cranberry, taupe, dark brown. I didn't do a lot on Christmas, but if I had plans to go out, I would have probably worn this!


Products used:
- Balm Voyage palette by The Balm
- Essence liquid eyeliner
- Essence mascara
- MUA eyebrow set

Balm voyage fall make-up look

Hello you guys! How are you doing?
I have been playing around with a couple of my new things. Today I played around with my new make-up palette by The Balm called "Balm Voyage" and my new Nikon D3300.

I still have to learn how to use this camera correctly, because I think the colours in these photo's might be a little bit too dark, but it could also be because of the weather.


I used A4, B4, D4 and D3 for this look. 
The colours are insanely pigmented and are amazing to use.  Because my look turned out to be quite dark, I decided not to go overboard with my eyeliner. No wing, just a small line across the lid.


What do you think?
Thanks for reading, have a good day!

Balm Voyage!

I'm a huge  fan of The Balm. I think it's an amazing make-up brand with fun products and amazing, creative packaging.
This week I treated myself to a bigger palette in their collection called "Balm Voyage", which is obviously the funnier version of "Bon Voyage" ("have a good trip" in French). This palette contains 16 different eyeshadow colours.

Look at the packaging! As you know, I'm a huge pin-up fan and this palette just blows my mind! So, so pretty! 


The eyeshadows are named after seats in a plane. (A4-D4,...). Aside from the 16 eyeshadows, there are also three lip colours.
I think it's very cute that everything in the palette is themed! So gorgeous!


Let's take a look at the swatches! 


The first four, and darkest colours in the palette are absolutely gorgeous! They are insanely pigmented! 


The next four eyeshadows are well pigmented as well, two of them are a bit chalky, so I think I will have some fall out when I use this palette.


I was very surprised to see how pigmented the lightest eyeshadow colours are! Most of the time, lighter colours in palettes are less pigmented, but as you can see these light colours are well pigmented. Better than I expected.


I'm very excited about this palette! I will for sure use it often! I like the pigmentation and texture of these eyeshadows, but also how different all the colours in this palette are! 
I will have a lot more looks online soon! Thanks for reading!
