Ferrarucci 40 Eyeshadow Palette Review

Hey Girls! Hope your all well. So I have a review on a brand which is quite popular here in the UAE, Ferrarucci. Ferrarucci is actually a German cosmetics brand and I am not sure if they are available across Europe as their website does not actually have any info, but if you can get your hands on this make up then get to it. They are amazing!! Super pigmented, long lasting, range of finishes and you get them all at an amazing price. I bought mine from a cosmetics store in a local mall, and for the 40 eyeshadows palette for 120 dirhams. Now as for the palette you get a great range of colours and they can be used dry and wet. The colour payoff is amazing on these beauties but they are more shimmery eyeshadows so if your looking for matte then these are not for you, but I love shimmer so these are just great for me! I wanted to swatch these for you but my camera was not doing them justice so once I get a better camera (hopefully soon) I will put them up. Till then enjoy these :)

I was soo impressed by this palette that I went out and got some more of their products which I will also be reviewing soon, so stay tuned :)
Have you guys got any brands of make up that aren't available internationally but are popular in your country?

Enjoy,

NYX: For Your Eyes Only- Brown Eyes Palette Review

Hey girls!! Hope your all doing great :) I am already looking forward to the weekend as here in the UAE we have Friday and Saturday as our weekend and its just around the corner!!! Well anyway I was looking through my make-up and I thought I would do a post/review on my go to make up palette for quick smokey eyes, natural looks or a quick dramatic. This is usually when my hubby decides on a whim to go out and it is all rush rush, getting my son ready, deciding what to wear and then how I can do my make up. I seem to find that on these occasions when I haven't had the time to think ahead what I'll be wearing I reach for my NYX palette! I just love it! Its compact- fits into any size hand bag or clutch and great for travelling. The colours are amazing, super pigmented and they have a variety of colours which is really good for on the go quick make up looks and here in the UAE where it can get very hot and humid these babies stay on really well!! I have taken the compact with me but honestly have never had to touch up my make up. Oh and it comes with a mirror which is great for checking everything is all in place-no food stuck in the teeth :P

The palette has a dark brown with gold flecks in it, a taupey brown, gold/coral, champagne, lilac with silver flecks, a deep purple, a green, a darker coral, a matte brown and matte light gold. I love the range of colours and finishes this palette has, my only small complaint is the fall out but its not tragic!
NYX has a range of the palettes for brown eyes, blue eyes, hazel eyes and many more in the collection. The best thing is they are CHEAP!!

 So if your looking for your go to palette I suggest you take a look at these at your local NYX stockier. Here in the UAE Lifestyle store have them and at the moment they are having 25% off so you can get them for 54 dirhams!

Have you tried these out? What do you think of them? Which one is your favourite?

Rimmel Glam Eyes HD Review

Hey everyone, so I am trying to get through a number of products to review for you guys and so I decided I would bring you my thoughts on the relativley new Rimmel Glam Eyes HD Eyeshadow palettes. Now I really love some of Rimmels products and I find that for the price they are quite smooth in application and texture but also they have a great colour pay off-especially their eye kohl pencils. So once I tried the tester for these babies in store, I was hooked I wanted every single palette but I held back and decided on two of the five that were there and I'm glad I didn't get them all. WHY?? Well as great as the colours and consistency of the eyeshadows the packaging is in my opinion horrendous!!!

So I picked up 005 English Rose and 006 Purple Reign. English Rose has a pinky-gold shade along with a brown and taupey shades and Purple Reign is just that a range of purples. The colours are absolutley gorgeous they are amazing on but getting to the little triangles with your brush doesn't help unless you use the sponge applicator tip to get in there but you still manage to get into the other color.
The Rimmels emblem of the union jack didn't work well as the colours are really to get to- except for the color in the middle which is in my opinion very annoying. But for the eyeshadows alone they are amazingly smooth and soft, hardly any fall out and they last a long time, (I have only worn these over my NYX eyeshadow base). In the whole range I find the colours are amazing and some of them actually remind of a few colours in the Urban Decay Naked palette. I would only recommend these to you who don't mind the challenge of getting to the colours in the smaller triangles but I really wish Rimmel had these palettes differently even the old style square quad would have been forgivable for such great eyeshadow quality.

What do you guys think? Have you tried these? Whats your favourite Rimmel product?
