SUNDAY SUM-UP #1

     

Hello there my beautiful friends and welcome to Blogmas day 8! It's Sunday and you know what that means, another 5 days back at work and school! Today I've decided to try something a little different, and that is a sum-up of my week. 

This week I've been very off with my schedule. I planned only 3 posts because I couldn't think of post ideas so I decided to leave them till the day and well...that was a big mistake! I ended up posting at 8-10pm. Now still I didn't have time to plan the posts as I was super busy this weekend. This is a lot harder than I thought! I give daily bloggers a lot of credit now. 

I have also been very busy with designing my blog layout this week. That's also why my schedules been off, I get sidetracked with the design that I completely forget about the posts. I have been asking Brittany from LifeSetSail for help with design as she has an etsy shop for design. She has been a very big help! Blog design is really difficult, I don't know how blog designers can make so many! 

Now off the blog topic, there's only 16 days till Christmas and I have done no Christmas shopping! I need to get on that or everything will be sold out. I still don't know what to get half the people on my list. I do have a for his gift guide going up tomorrow, so keep an eye out! 

As anyone else's skin, hands and lips been super dry lately? Even with moisturization, they are still super dry. It's so painful and uncomfortable. I need some intense moisture rescue. 

Yesterday, Saturday, I guest posted on Shonas blog or freshbeautyxox.blogspot.com. I posted about how to keep your hair healthy in 5 easy steps and then on the 11th I am guest posting on Alicia's blog or thebeauty-journals.blogspot.com. Lots of guest postings this week. 

Well that's basically my week in short. Now you know everything that happened last week, maybe not EVERYTHING. Let me know what you think of this type of posts, I like them because next year I can look back and see exactly what I did a year ago.

2 NEW PALETTES IN STORES!- C2CC

       

Hello there my beautiful friends, happy Saturday and happy 18 days till Christmas! Can you believe it? With Christmas so close, company's are trying to get all their new palettes out before so they can get lots of sales in before the new year. I chose 3 new palettes that are out now, to share a little bit about with you! One of them has everybody talking so it's no surprise it's in this post, I'm sure you've already guessed it! Before I start, I just want to say that I have not tried these yet so it's NOT a review, it's more of a showing. Let's get started...

One of the palettes that came out recently is the Smashbox Full Exposure Palette. It runs for $58CAD and $49USD. It's just a palette full of neutral colors that are wearable and timeless. It's similar to the Lorac Pro Pallette in that it has a row of shimmer and a row of mattes. This palette isn't much cheaper than the lorac but you could save a few dollars. It has 14 gorgeous colors and you can create a subtle look or a dark smokey look. As an added bonus, it comes with a dual ended brush and a full exposure mascara! Buy it here or here.

The next palette is the Urban Decay Vice 2 Palette. It runs for $68CAD or $59USD. This palette is fully packed with 20 eyeshadows from bright to dark to neutral. This is a limited edition palette so you better snatch it quick if you want this bad boy. It has metallics, satins, glitters, shimmers and mattes. What more could you ask for in a palette? It is also free of parabens, sulfates and phthalates! This also comes with a dual ended brush for all your blending needs. Buy it here or here.

The last but certainly not least is the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette. It runs for $62CAD or $52USD. Until December 15th it's only available online, or at least for sephora. But that doesn't mean you can't still buy it. I'm sure you've heard a ton about this so I won't go on to much about it. This palette comes with 12 brand new UD shades and the shades are all rose-hued. Even though it's a pinky palette, they are still wearable colors. It has everything from super pale to super dark and it has pearls, stains, mattes, shimmers and metallics. Again it has a dual ended brush! Buy it here or here. 

Those are three of the new palettes that have caught my eye this holiday season. I just wanted to share them with you because I know a lot of people struggle with finding gifts for people or knowing what they want to ask for. This may give some of you ideas. These are all pretty pricey but they are all amazing quality shadows and perfect for all makeup wearers. Happy Holidays everyone! 

    What eyeshadow palettes do you have your eye on? Do you want any of these palettes?
