Z.PALETTE SMALL CUSTOMIZABLE MAKEUP PALETTE: REVIEW & PHOTOS

 
 ♥ Z.Palette Small Customizable Makeup Palette. 

The Small Customizable Z.Palette (£15.95) features a sleek and clean design that offers the strength of a plastic palette, while using eco-friendly recyclable materials. It includes both a clear window and an open magnetic base to fit any sized shadow, blush, bronzer and even some foundations. The colors can be replaced as often as you would like, which is one off the things that I really love about the Z.Palette.

The small Z.Palette is shaped like a square, it feels very sturdy and it's nice and compact as well. It's got a clear lid, which allows you to see the exact colors that are inside the palette. I absolutely love this, because then I can see what's inside without having to open it up. It's great for travelling too, as it doesn't take up much space in your makeup bag.

Some eyeshadows are made in non-metal pans, so you will need magnets to adhere them to the magnetic pan in the palette. I bought a couple off the big sized Z.Palettes a couple off years ago, which didn't come with any magnets. I'm so happy that they are now including the magnets with the palettes, because it just makes things a lot easier. You get a set off ten magnets with each Z.Palette.

♥ Z.Palette Small Customizable Makeup Palette. 

Overall, I think Z.Palettes are a must have if you love makeup and you like to keep everything organized and keep track off your de-potted products. I keep nine off my favorite and most reached for eyeshadows from MAC Cosmetics in this palette. I love having them all together in one little palette, it's so practical. Let's take a moment off silence to really appreciate the color off this palette! Isn't she a beauty? Such a beautiful bright pink color, it's perfect! :-)

Where to buy?
The Small Customizable Z.Palette is available at beautystore4u for £15.95, HERE.

 Do you own a Z.Palette? If not, do you want one? :-) Love, Christine♥

The Vinylux Weekly Polish and Weekly Top Coat is a system that is uniquely designed to work together. It offers a durable, high-shine and week long wear with no need for a base coat. It dries naturally to a flawless finish and strengthens its resistance to chips over time! :-)

 ♥ CND Vinylux Nail Polish in Cerulean Sea.

Tango Passion (159NOK/$9.90 for 15 ml/.5 Fl Oz) is a deep, bright purple with a metallic finish. 

Overall, I really like the Paradise Collection from CND. The colors are so vibrant, fun and perfect for the Summer. The nail polishes were easy to apply, except for Bicycle Yellow. I found that particular shade to be a little difficult to work with and to get it to look even on my nails. All colors were fully opaque in three coats.

This is my first time trying out the nail polishes from CND and I'm very pleased with all the shades. At first, I was a little affraid that the nail polishes would stain my nails since a base coat isn't needed before the application. But they didn't stain my nails at all, which I'm so happy about. My favorite colors from this collection is Cerulean Sea, Lush Tropics and Sultry Sunset! I know I will be wearing those three shades a lot now that Summer is right around the corner! :-) 

Where to buy?
The CND Paradise Collection is available at Neglakademiet for 159NOK each, HERE

Note:
CND is cruelty free and environmentally friendly. The nail polishes are Dibutyl Phthalate, Toluene, and Formaldehyde free as well.

LUSH COSMETICS MASK OF MAGNAMINTY: REVIEW, PHOTOS & SWATCHES

♥ LUSH Cosmetics Mask Of Magnaminty Face and Back Pack. 

LUSH Cosmetics Mask Of Magnaminty (125g/4.4oz for $12.95.) is a fresh, deep cleansing face and back mask. It feels very cooling and refreshing on the skin and it has a nice and thick consistency, which makes it very easy to apply. It has that tingly sensation which feels a little weird at first, but you do get used to it after using it a couple off times.

It has a very fresh but strong peppermint scent, which I find very refreshing and delightful. It's completely dry after a couple off minutes. It leaves the skin feeling a little tight, but not uncomfortable in any way.

 ♥ LUSH Cosmetics Mask Of Magnaminty Face and Back Pack. 

My skin has been very kind to me over the last couple off years, but I still get pimples here and there. I like to use this mask at least once a week, just to prevent any breakouts and help keep my skin in a good condition. The mask is easy to remove with warm water. Since the mask is completely dry on the skin, it will help exfoliate it as well.

If you are thinking about trying out this mask, I highly recommend that you go for the smallest size. It might look like your not getting a lot off product, but this little tub is going to last you a long time. The masks from LUSH Cosmetics remain fresh for up to four months, so always be sure to check the expiration date on the side off the container.

 ♥ LUSH Cosmetics Mask Of Magnaminty Face and Back Pack.

Overall, I'm very impressed with Mask Of Magnaminty. My skin haven't felt this fresh, smooth and clean in a while. It doesn't give my skin a lot off hydration though, so I always make sure to finish with a good moisturizer. If you suffer from breakouts, dry and flaky skin, you should give this mask a try. Your skin is going to look great and feel brand new afterwards! :-)

PAESE COSMETICS SPRING COLLECTION NAIL ENAMEL IN 333, 336 & 337: REVIEW, PHOTOS & SWATCHES

The Paese Cosmetics Spring/Summer Collection consists off eight beautiful shades perfect for this upcoming season. The collection ranges from earthy tones to vibrant aqua shades as well as a lovely midnight blue. Today, I have three shades from this collection to share with you, so let's jump right into it! :-) 

♥ Paese Cosmetics Nail Enamel in 333, 336 & 337. 

 ♥ Paese Cosmetics Nail Enamel in 333.  

333 (£3.95 for 9ml.) is a pretty purple gray with a creamy finish. It's really easy to apply and looks very smooth and even. It didn't go on looking streaky or sheer, which is nice. It dries quickly and it's opaque in only two coats. 333 is a lovely shade for Spring and Summer, as well as for the Fall and Winter months. 

 ♥ Paese Cosmetics Nail Enamel in 336. 

 336 (£3.95 for 9ml.) is a lovely teal with a matte finish. Another lovely shade from Paese Cosmetics. I didn't have any problems with the application off this shade. It looks very nice and smooth on the nails, it dries quickly and is opaque in two coats. The only thing that I'm not loving about this nail polish is the finish. It dries matte which I'm not the biggest fan off, but luckily that can be fixed with a shiny top coat. My favorite top coat at the moment is the Glossy Boss top coat from Glitter Gal Australia. It's amazing! It makes my nails look super shiny, glossy and delicious. You can find it HERE! :-)

♥ Paese Cosmetics Nail Enamel in 337.

337 (£3.95 for 9ml.) is a beautiful mint/hunter green with a creamy finish.  Like the previous two nail polishes from this collection, 337 was also a pleasure to work with. It didn't apply sheer nor streaky, which is pretty awesome. It dries quickly and it's fully opaque in two coats. 

Overall, I'm so impressed with these nail polishes from Paese Cosmetics. They have a great formula, they are easy to work with, they look super glossy and pretty on the nails and they are all fully opaque in just two coats. I think all three shades here are really beautiful, but my favorite is definitely 336. It's such a gorgeous teal, which screams Summer to me. Definitely look into the nail polishes from Paese if you haven't done that already. They have a wonderful selection off shades to choose from, the quality is nice and they are quite affordable as well! :-)

Where to buy?
The Paese Nail Enamels are available at Cloud 10 Beauty for £3.95 each. You can check out the entire Spring/Summer collection HERE

Note:
Paese is cruelty free. Does not contain toluene or formaldehyde.
