No one talks about… Wet n Wild Mega Jelly Eyeshadow in Dirty Martini (review, swatches)

Published on by callmecarolinaLeave a comment

This was purchased when I needed to add something more to my cart to get a gift with purchase on some random online order I was doing. How is it not more popular? This should be in top 10 and yearly makeup favorites lists, yet, you can barely find any reviews. Go grab your peanut butter, this jelly is amazing.

Makeup Tag Week 2020! Day 7 – The Blush Tag

Published on by callmecarolinaLeave a comment

This is the final post on this series, and it had to be dedicated to my favourite makeup thing: blush. I love blush. This is an old tag, but very fun to answer nonetheless. Any excuse to stare and swatch my blushes really, I’m happy with.

Makeup Tag Week is a series of posts of my answers to popular makeup tags spanning one week, one tag a day. Why? ‘Cause whenever I see someone else do tags I end up wasting waaaaay too much time trying to answer them for myself, and I thought I would give a better end use to my procrastination excuse.

Makeup Tag Week 2020! Day 5 – All About My Palettes Tag

Published on by callmecarolina2 Comments

For this post I considered a palette something with 5 or more shades, to make my life easier. So quads don’t count. And it was enough trouble as is was to chose some of these answers, so commend me for my effort, I deserve it.

Makeup Tag Week 2020! Day 3 – Drugstore Makeup Tag

Published on by callmecarolina7 Comments

After two tags in a row dedicated to wallet torturing products, it’s time for the drugstore tag. I have seen it before in Youtube videos, but it was The Book and the Beauty‘s take on it that reminded me of including in it this week.

Makeup Tag Week 2020! Day 1 – If I Had 1000$ to Spend at Sephora

Published on by callmecarolina3 Comments

If I had 1000$ to spend on whatever I wanted, I would probably buy shoes – but Sephora doesn’t sell those, so makeup it is. I’ll limit myself to the portuguese Sephora website, and I’ll also stick with the 1000$, that is about 841 euros.

You’ll be surprised at the amount of stuff I would get.

Makeup Empties – The Good, The Bad and The Tossed

Published on by callmecarolina4 Comments

I’ve mentioned before I don’t believe in declutters – I have a more medieval approach towards my makeup products: I keep them to serve as penitence for wasted money and to discourage myself from wasting more. So the only way anything leaves my makeup collection is either by getting used up or unmistakably turning bad.

So let’s see what products have managed to leave my Alcatraz of a vanity.

Project 10 Pan – the Powder Purge Update #1

Published on by callmecarolina1 Comment

It’s been 9 months since my project pan introduction. Enough time to make a baby – not that that happened. That I know of. What I did make was some very noticeable progress on this project – I actually kept forgetting about the updates, and I’m literally writing this because I want to take the trash out and keep having these empty compacts laying around.

Now let’s move on with a brief description of the progress as I talk about my powders like bad tenants that won’t leave.

No one talks about… Clarins Mineral Sun Care Compact for Face SPF30 (review, swatches)

“No one talks about…” is a series of makeup reviews of products that have very few to no reviews online (reviews on online stores are not accounted for). This is so that if you’re searching for a bit more information before biting the bullet, you’ll at least have these swatches, photos, and my humble opinion :).

I’m a weak woman. There was a 3 for 2 offer on suncare products on a Portuguese beauty website, and I caved and got myself two self tanner products, and this compact to make the 3 for 2. Even though I knew nothing about the compact and don’t really use self tanner.
