June 2020 Haul Part 2!

It feels like it has been forever since I was able to leave home and go about life. However, I am not complaining because the heat lately has been a killer and I can barely step foot outside before running back in to hide under a fan. I am also glad to still have a job which allows me to buy more things...hahah

I would like to say I tried to show restraint in the last few weeks but, that's an absolute lie. I bought ten new nail polishes (not pictured) and I didn't even open them but, the colors just make me so happy. I also got a bunch of lip products even though no one will see them but me. I have been wearing bold lipsticks while reading at night. A different color for each new book. I am excited to try the dark red Coloured Raine lipstick and the red lipstick from Lipstick Queen. I own several LP products but, not this specific shade. I also restocked my oils and creams since I am going through them like crazy. I feel like as soon as a bit of skincare hits my skin, I just sweat the whole thing off. I am looking forward to trying the Kypris (look at that fancy label!) and the Akar facial oil.

Even though I usually reserve taking baths during the winter, I still crave one every so often. I came across these bubble bars at Walgreens. They have a bit of a chemical scent but, they were a lot cheaper than Lush. I am hoping that once the bubble bar hits the water, it starts smelling delicious.

Has anyone tried any of these items? If so, let me know!

Urban Decay Vice 4 Palette

I am a bit late for this review but, I been using the Vice 4 palette for a few years and realized I never posted the photos. This palette has 20 limited edition of new colors. The colors are mostly micro glitter and have some fallout during application. The eyeshadows can be used without a primer but, I would recommend using one. I usually love UD's bright eye shadow but, I saw and own some recent ones that are not safe for application near the eye. I feel like an eyeshadow palette should be safe to use near the eye and they should provide reasons for not being safe. At the rate I am going, please expect the new palette to be reviewed in 2036.

Tarte Apple of My Eye Eyeshadow Palette

The Tarte eyeshadow quad is composed of four eyeshadows with apple-related names such as golden delicious, caramel, gala, and Honeycrisp. There are two matte colors and two shimmers. The palette colors can be used for a subtle look or a dramatic natural look. I felt like the pigment was a bit weak and felt very talc-y/chalky.  Not my favorite palette but, I did like the shimmery gold colors.

Lancome Color Design Palette 101 Bronze Amour

The eye shadow palette is composed of 5 pigmented shades to color, contour, sculpt, highlight and line eyes for eight-hour budge proof formula. The palette comes with an eyeshadow and eyeliner applicator. The bronze amour is  peach gold shimmer, golden copper shimmer, golden taupe shimmer, yellow gold shimmer, and chocolate brown shimmer. The color was a bit too light and not enough pigment for me. Some of the shimmer eyeshadow had a bit too much of a glitter fallout. I didn't ntice the formula lasting 8 hours, three hours at max. It's a nice palette but I pick the wrong color palette for my tastes.
