No Makeup Makeup Look

Hey Gorgeous People,

Here is a little extra for you beauties that was the finishing touches for my updated base makeup routine xo.

I wanted this to be a super simple, subtle makeup/no makeup look so hopefully you'll like it!

To see how I got the rest of my face before doing this last little bits for the look, you can find them here.

EYEBROWS!! For me, eyebrows can be super easy and then, on some days .. okay, most days, harder than my HSC! I just wanted super subtle brows so only used a tiny amount of product.

Myabelline Expert Wear Palette'Natural Smokes'
Designer Tools 406-06 Fine Liner Brush


For eyeshadow, using a fluffy angled eyeshadow brush, I put the highlight in the inner corner of my eye, the pale dusty pink across my lid and blended onto my brows bone, the brown blended into the outer corner of my eye, and the shimmery plum smoked out under my lower lash line.



I used my favourite mascara, the Maybelline Full 'n Soft Mascara, on my upper and lower lashes.

BH Cosmetics Eyeshadow Palette Look #1

Hey Gorgeous People,

So I recently posted a review about the BH Cosmetics Natural Eyeshadow Palette and I said that I would possibly do a few makeup looks using the palette. So I did one for you all and I hope you like it!


I first did the base of my face (I'll update you on my routine for that soon) and then I started with shade 1 for the base of my eyelid. I then put shade 2 across my whole eyelid and blended it just above the crease.
 (I don't know what is wrong with my top lip but it is looking a bit weird and I'm sorry)
Then I blended shades 3 & 4 along my crease and in the outer V of my eye. I used small amounts of product but built it up and added depth slowly but surely.

Then I used shade 5 on the outer edge of my top lashline to add more depth and have a more smokey aspect to it. Then I put a small cat eye using my BYS Tattoo Liner.
To add a little shimmer and sparkle, I wet my brush with some Maybelline setting spray and used shade 6 to make a little cut crease effect. I soon realised this colour was a little too yellow so i put some of shade 3 over the top to bring out those orange shades again. I also finally did my brows and put on some Maybelline Long and Soft Mascara. Finally, I dabbed on a bit of Nude/Orange Maybelline Long Wear Matte Liquid Lipstick and the look was complete!


I hope you liked this look using the BH Cosmetics Natural Eyeshadow Palette. If you would like more of these just let me know below in the comment section. And yes, my eyebrows have seen better day but they just aren't growing fast enough for me to reshape them :(

BH Cosmetics Palette Review

Hey Gorgeous People,

So, the other week I was shopping on Beauty Bay and came across this really beautiful, natural eyeshadow palette by BH Cosmetics. I thought I would give it a go, because it was on sale, and I went ahead and bought it. So I thought I would review it for you.

So, firstly I must talk about the shipping. Now I am not entirely sure where it came from but I am pretty sure it was from the UK and I chose the 7-10 day shipping. Now this didn't matter too much because it wasn't like I was on a time crunch and needed the palette in 10 days but it was 5 days late and that was a little bit annoying just because I was stressing about buying online and then it was late and I just went into full anxious mode. But it did arrive on the 15th day and I can understand why. The size of the box was huge compared to the size of the palette. Thank you Beauty Bay for using some much bubble wrap and cushioning to make sure the palette got to me safe!

So the first photo is the palette in its own little box/sleeve/thing. I think it's pretty ordinary packaging but, again, it didn't really phase me because it's just packaging. The palette is made out of plastic with an opaque plastic lid so you can see the palette itself. Now onto the actual product.

For $20, I wasn't expecting anything too crazy but I wasn't expecting this. When I tried swatching the colours on my wrist with a brush, the colours seemed not very pigmented and I must say I was a little disappointed. But when I swatched them using a finger, the colours were quite pigmented. I don't really enjoy using my finger to do my eyeshadow but I will keep trying different methods to see which works best.

Now I really like the colours in this palette. I've been looking for a natural eyeshadow palette for quite a while now and I'm glad I stumbled across this one. The product, I have found, is also more pigmented if you use it on top of foundation or concealer so I couldn't use it on just a powdered face, which is a bit of a let down because I like to enhance the crease of my eye  and have a bit of eyeliner on but not wear foundation.

Another let down is that some of the colours are quite hard to blend and do take a lot of time. But I don't mind too much because I usually spend quite a while doing my makeup that a little bit more time blending won't matter too much.

Even though there are some let downs with the product, I think it is a good price and I am quite happy with it. I would recommend it.

If you have bought anything by BH Cosmetics, I would love to hear about it!
I also will post some photos soon with some eyeshadow looks using this palette if you would like them.
