OUTFIT OF THE DAY: PINK & LEOPARD PRINT

Hey everyone, how are you doing today? I hope that you are doing good and that you are having a lovely Thursday. Today's post is going to be an outfit post. I wanted to share my most recent outfit with you all. Let me know what you think about the look in the comments down below, I would love to hear your thoughts! :-) 

What I'm Wearing: 

♥ Blazer from Chicnova. 

♥ Top from H&M. 

♥ Jeans from Pieces.

♥ Sunglasses from H&M.

♥ Boots from Bik Bok.

♥ Bag from Chicnova. 

I'm in love with this pink blazer from Chicnova, isn't it pretty? It's so bright and fun, perfect for Summer. I love wearing single colored blazers with pattern tops. It has a nice fit and it looks very dressy and put together, without looking like you tried too hard. If your not digging the bright pink, the blazer also comes in four other colors as well, you can find it HERE.

The bag is another favorite off mine. It's very similar to the Alexander Wang Rocco Duffel Bag, which I have been wanting to get my hands on for years. The quality off the bag is really nice. It comes with a shoulder strap as well, which is very useful if you are on the go. The bag is currently on sale for $42.08, the original price is $56.00. If you are interested in the bag, you can find it HERE! :-) 

What do you think about the look? Do you like it? :-) Love, Christine♥

 ♥ Make Up Store Tribe Collection! Photo Credit, HERE.

Today, I have four products from the new Make Up Store Tribe Collection to show you. The Tribe Collection has a futuristic twist on the Incas, with deep red and earthy tones mixed with some metallic finishes. The collection has a good mix off eye and lip products, as well as a pretty nail polish and a set off makeup bags. It's a beautiful collection, so let's go on and jump right into the review and swatches! :-)

Marble Eyeshadow in Indus Gold ($25 for 3g/0.106oz.) is a pretty marble eyeshadow with gold and green veining. When the two shades are swirled together, they create a beautiful gold eyeshadow with a green metallic sheen.

 Lipstick in Burgundy ($25 for 4.0g/0.14oz.) is a beautiful, deep red with a creamy finish.

 Overall, Tribe is another great collection from Make Up Store. There are mostly neutral shades in this collection, which is right up my alley. The eyeshadows are really soft and they feel very smooth too. They are nicely pigmented and easy to blend. The Microshadow in Beaver was a little chalky, but nothing too crazy. The Lipstick in Burgundy is gorgeous. It feels nice and soft on the lips and it doesn't make my lips dry.

I'm in love with the Marble Eyeshadow in Indus Gold and the Microshadow in Beaver. They are so pretty and together they look beautiful on the eyes! :-) 

Where to buy?
The Tribe Collection is available at Make Up Store's website, HERE and in stores as well.

BH COSMETICS BLUSH DUO IN IRIS: REVIEW, PHOTOS & SWATCHES

Today, I have a review off the BH Cosmetics Blush Duo in Iris to share with you. The blush duo in Iris is inspired by flower petals and their feminine, soft colors. The blush duo contains a deep matte berry and a shimmery pink blush. Keep reading to find out what I think about it! :-) 

♥ BH Cosmetics Blush Duo in Iris. 

 The BH Cosmetics Blush Duo in Iris ($3.95 for 11.0g/0.40oz.) comes with two lovely blushes and a decent sized mirror. The palette has a magnetic closure, which makes it very practical for travel. The size off the palette is perfect! It's really slim, so it doesn't take up much space in your makeup bag and it's great for keeping in your handbag for any touch ups throughout the day.

Both blushes are very easy to apply. They are nicely pigmented, they are really soft and they are easy to blend as well. The matte berry blush is a little chalky, but nothing too crazy. The shimmery peachy pink blush is not chalky at all, it's really smooth and soft to the touch. The two shades can be swirled together for a pretty deep pink, or they can be used separately for a lovely and pretty glow.

 ♥ BH Cosmetics Matte Berry Blush. 

♥ BH Cosmetics Shimmery Peachy Pink Blush.

Overall, I really like the BH Cosmetics Blush Duo in Iris. Both blushes are beautiful and nicely pigmented. I find myself reaching for the shimmery peachy pink blush a little more than the matte berry blush. The shimmery peachy pink blush is a great blush for Summer. It looks very fresh and glowy on the cheeks. The matte berry blush is gorgeous too, but I tend to reach for those kind off shades a lot more during Fall and Winter months. I'm in love with the design off this compact, isn't it beautiful? It's really colorful and fun, love it! :-)

Talc, Mica, Mineral Oil, Titanium Dioxide, Magnesium Stearate, Isopropyl Palmitate, Lanolin, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, BHT.

I have heard so many great things about the NYX Butter Lipsticks, so I'm so excited to play around with the shades that I got. I'm already a big fan off the Powder Blushes, they are really pigmented and they look so pretty on the cheeks. Both Pinched and Terra Cotta look lovely in the pan, great blushes for Summer. I'm so excited to try out the Matte Bronzer as well, hopefully it won't look too dark or orange on me! :-) 

What do you think about the items that I picked up? Have you bought any new products from NYX recently? Do you have a favorite product by NYX? :-) Love, Christine♥

Overall, I really like the Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquers. The packaging is lovely, both colors look beautiful on the lips and the formula is quite nice as well. They feel very smooth on the lips, not sticky at all. They are quite affordable as well, which is another great thing about these. I'm not the biggest fan off the scent though, but once it's on the lips, I don't notice it anymore. They do stain your lips though, so just a heads up.

There are quite a few bold and bright shades in this the Apocalips Lip Lacquer range. If bright and vibrant shades scare you, try dabbing the color on your lips a couple off times and blending it out with your finger. It's going to look a lot more natural on the lips, and even the scariest looking shades will become more wearable. I have always been into neutral lipsticks, because I feel more comfortable wearing them. But it's fun to step outside off the comfort zone every one and a while! :-)

LUSH COSMETICS DREAM CREAM BODY LOTION: REVIEW, PHOTOS & SWATCHES

The LUSH Cosmetics Dream Cream Body Lotion (219NOK/$26.95 for 8.4 oz.) is a gentle cream for troubled and sensitive skin. It contains every ingredient nature makes for soothing sore skin. It has a blend off oat milk, lavender and chamomile, which work wonders on dry, troubled and sensitive skin! :-) 

♥ LUSH Cosmetics Dream Cream Body Lotion. 

The Dream Cream Body Lotion has been my go-to body moisturizer for a couple off months now. It has a nice, rich and thin consistency, which doesn't feel heavy or look greasy on the skin. A little goes a long way with this body lotion, so I recommend starting with a little, then go back and apply more if you feel like you need it.

I absolutely love the scent off this cream, it's quite relaxing and delightful. It's a little strong though, so keep that in mind if you are thinking about ordering it online.

 ♥ LUSH Cosmetics Dream Cream Body Lotion. 

Overall, the Dream Cream Body Lotion is a must have if you suffer from dry skin like myself. It feels so nice and soothing on the skin. I used to have a lot off dry patches on my hands and elbows due to the cold winter months. Thanks to the Dream Cream, they have been reduced to a minimum and my skin feels a lot softer and smoother. It stays nice and hydrated throughout the day. Once I have used up this tub, I will definitely be picking up a new one! :-)

NANSHY 5 PIECE PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP BRUSH SET: REVIEW & PHOTOS

Today, I have a review off the Nanshy 5 Piece Professional Makeup Brush Set to share with you. The 5 Piece Professional Brush Set consists off five full sized synthetic makeup brushes for the face. The brushes can be used to apply foundation, concealer, powder, bronzer, blush, highlighter, tinted moisturizer and even primer. They are basically all the brushes you need to create a full face off face makeup! :-) 

♥ Nanshy 5 Piece Professional Brush Set. 

 ♥ Nanshy Angled Buffer Brush. 

The Angled Buffer Brush (£9.95, HERE) is great for contouring the face with a bronzer and adding a blush to the cheekbones. It's also great for foundation as well.

 ♥ Nanshy Flat Angled Buffer Brush. 

The Flat Angled Buffer Brush (£9.95, HERE) is great for applying, distributing and blending foundation into all areas off the face. It buffs and blends out the foundation very well.

 ♥ Nanshy Pointed Brush. 

The Pointed Brush (£9.95, HERE) has a soft and rounded tip, which is great for applying product on certain areas off the face. I like using it to apply my foundation and concealer around the eye area, as well as around the nose. It's a very precise brush, which let's you get right into all the different corners and crevices off the face. It's also nice for highlighting the cheekbones and for contouring as well.

 ♥ Nanshy Flat Top Buffer Brush. 

The Flat Top Buffer Brush (£9.95, HERE) is another great foundation brush from Nanshy. It's very similar to the popular F80 by Sigma Beauty, which is a favorite amongst many beauty bloggers. It has a nice flat shape, which makes it easy to apply and distribute the product all over the face. It buffs and blends out the foundation very well. It can be used for powder, blush and bronzer as well.

♥ Nanshy Round Buffer Brush. 

The Round Buffer Brush (£9.95, HERE) is a dome shaped brush with soft synthetic bristles. It's fluffy and dense, which makes it great for applying cream products. I like using it to apply my powder and cream blushes, it works great for that. 

 

 

 ♥ Nanshy 5 Piece Professional Brush Set.

Overall, I really like the 5 Piece Professional Makeup Brush Set by Nanshy. The brushes are so soft, they feel very sturdy and nice and the quality is really good. They are easy to work with, easy to clean and they give a very flawless look. They don't shed either, which is great. I put them though a cleaning test before I started using them.

I'm loving the white and silver handles with the pearly finish. It's so different from the other makeup brushes in my collection, these definitely stand out from the rest off them. I like that the brush handles are a little on the thicker side, because I feel like I get a much better grip as well as more control over the application! :-) 

Where to buy?
The Nanshy 5 Piece Professional Makeup Brush Set is available at beautystore4u for £34.95, HERE. The brushes can be purchased as a set of 5 or 4 as well as individually.

Note:
Nanshy is cruelty free and vegan approved by PETA.org.
