Any new or old favorites discovered?: Because my eyeshadow technique has changed so much over the last year, I find that I’m enjoying my palettes more; this week was ND Sunrise. I never really used the shade Aster before, and packed on over glitter glue, it is so pretty!

Any product you’re hoping to use next week?: My new Clionadh shadows and Give Me Glow singles! I just received four Clionadh singles: Chandelier, Opulent, Ambient and Cinnabar. I have 8 more coming to me as well over the next couple months.

Look you loved this week?: A soft purple look incorporating CP UR A QT, Nars Calisto and Thessalonika. Had UD NOHO as my blush and used Sephora Cream Lip Stain in Endless Purple with a bit of MAC Set Me Off Lipglass on top.

Any new or old favorites discovered?: Nars Thessalonika and Calisto, plus CP UR A QT.

Any product you’re hoping to use next week?: Not sure yet. Probably another look using CT Bejeweled Palette, though!

I really want the Colourpop Super Shock shadow duo but too much with the shipping. I’ll have to wait until I can add other stuff to get free shipping. Those Sydney liquid eye shadows are so good. I own 2 but I want to pick up a couple more especially the multichrome ones that are never in stock.

Your skin tone/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones

Look you loved this week?: On Christmas Day! I used my brand new CT’s The Rebel 2020 quad, with the gold shade on the whole lid, the softer olive shade on the mobile lid, the darker olive shade next to the lashline and the olive brown shade with touches in the crease. I paired it with Maybelline’s Spice for Me lipstick.

Any new or old favorites discovered?: CT’s The Rebel, PMG’s Sublime Mini – all my new ones.

Any product you’re hoping to use next week?: ND’s Glam and The Rebel.

Your skin tone/coloring: pale/yellow, dark hair, blue eyes

Look you loved this week?: I wore red lipstick on Christmas day and felt like myself again. It was fun. I miss lipstick so much. I wore Divine Rose II, which was my xmas gift from my hubs, on my eye, and it was just a very fulfilling makeup day.

Any new or old favorites discovered?: DRII and Natasha Denona Metropolis have both recently found their forever homes with me, and I love both of them. I destashed 6 palettes to make space, so I felt pretty good about it.

Any product you’re hoping to use next week?: The aforementioned palettes, and Colourpop Tea Garden single eyeshadow, which I think would be a nice compliment to both.

– Really enjoyed Tom Ford First Frost this week — after watching Hung’s video, I realized I can just use the two darker colors and do not have to worry about using all the 4 colors together.

– I tried Nudstix sunkissed that I received as a sample a while back. Though it’s labeled as a bronzer, it works better as a blush on me! I’m happy that I forgot it’s a bronzer and discover it can be a great blush color. Quite long lasting and easy to apply as well

– Even staying at home, still want to do a NYE look, so maybe pulling out the party colors from Pat McGrath.

Look you loved this week?: A slightly smokey silvery taupe eye look using the Natasha Denona Glam Palette. I had a mix of Tate Savoured and Pampered on my cheeks, and Seraphine Botanicals Vegan Berry Tint on my lips. I had to get my passport renewal photo done, and the Vegan Berry Tint didn’t budge under my mask.

Any new or old favorites discovered?:. Seraphine Botanicals Vegan Berry Tint was a pleasant surprise. I didn’t even remember buying it, but I’m glad I did. It’s cmfortable, and it stayed pristine under my mask yet was still easy to remove. It looked fab with my hair color, too. It’s supposed to work on cheeks, too, but I haven’t yet tried it. Too bad it only comes in the one color.

Any product you’re hoping to use next week?:. I got the new Musee Beauty Van Gogh Palette for Christmas, and I’m actually excited to use it and get out of my makeup funk.
