The Body Shop- Hi Shine Lip Treatment

 

I am really loving this Hi Shine Lip Treatment by The Body Shop.

It’s not sticky, runny or messy. It feels like a lip balm and gloss mixed in one and the color payoff is very pretty. Very true to the color in the tube, even on my darker tone lips. This lip color complements a soft smokey eye pretty nicely :)

Lips aside I’ve been busy practicing my rusty makeup skills and the inspiration for this was from BlueBell Beauty Blog. She’s got crazy blending skills and her eye makeup is to die for, so here are two looks that inspired by here.

I have no idea why purple always ends up looking like black on my lids. Dark blue seems to have the same resulting effect..

OCC LIP TAR HUSH

I’ve been lamenting to Dee about how much I wana try a lip tar and I found this beautiful new shade in HUSH nicely packed into her birthday parcel.  Look at the swatch. OCC Lip Tar feels so smooth and it’s like a liquid lipstick. Creamy, highly pigmented soft nude pink. *_* I love OCC so much!

My lips look so sexy !! hahaha

Isn’t the swatch madly pigmented! I can’t wait to do a proper eye look with this gorgeous gunmetal shade :) Dee u are a mind reader!

HIP PLATINUM DUO

Never has a drugstore eyeshadow got me so excited until I tried HIP’s Duo Eyeshsadow. This is a real god sent for makeup fanatics who love a good pop of color with minimal blending effort and maximum payoff. 

PLATINUM was a shade I’ve been secretly admiring especially when I look up these Duos on other people’s blog. LOREAL bring in this line to my tiny island already !! This is a precious precious color to me cause the silver is gorgeous and so uber pigmented. I intend to use this Duo eyeshadow color with the OCC Ironic Pigment for a silvery EOTD :)

A really quick simple eye look just to test out the eyeshadow. I used only a little bit of color for this quick look.

As you can tell, HIP Duo in Gilded got me all excited that I had to test them all once I’d opened the parcel.

NYX RUNWAY COLLECTION – JAZZ NIGHT

The biggest treat was seeing this sleek black palette by NYX.  10 Beautiful Smokey and neutral shades to make me squeal in absolute delight. The colors are very soft and very buildable. The end result is a wearable everyday look or a sexy smokey eyes!
