Although I'm late to this party, we are already in 2018 and the holiday collections are now gone, I couldn't skip reviewing the MAC Holiday collection for 2017. Why, you ask? Well, because I have a few things to say about it. First of all, every year MAC launches a lot of collections. However, the holiday one is usually the most anticipated, big and beautiful of them all. Second, the prices of this collections, especially if you don't live in the US, are completely outrageous. And third, they sellout more quickly than you can say "holiday collection". 2017 holiday collection, Snow Ball, was gorgeous, no doubt about it. But getting your hand on some of the products was sort of "mission impossible", and especially on the beautiful face bags, I think they were sold out everywhere like 2 minutes after they launched: Photo is taken from here But after coming to the painful realization that I won't be able to put my hands on them, I...

When I published my last post about Huda Beauty , it was clear to me that I'll be purchasing more of her products, and the time has come to share them with you. In the last 3 months or so, slowly but surly, Sephora Spain has started bringing more and more holiday collections from different brands, including of course Huda, and it was not easy to choose what to buy.  My guideline though has always been asking myself the question: "Will I be sorry later on about not buying it"? Because holiday collections are usually limited addition, and they are always so special and tempting... And this question made me buy, for example, 2 of the lip sets. They were just to beautiful to chose just one. Huda Beauty Obsessions palette Mauve I have to admit that when I first heard about the launch of these 4 small eyeshadow palettes, I felt quite frustrated. As you know, I already own her 2 other large eyeshadow palettes , and seeing that now 4 smal...

So as I promised you in part 1 of this post , I truly couldn't restrain myself with the beautiful Man Ray collection and had to buy more pieces of it. The chosen ones were these 2 beauties: NARS Man Ray holiday 2017 collection NARS x Man Ray Love game eyeshadow palette Love game eyeshadow palette Love game eyeshadow palette The Love game eyeshadow palette immediately caught my eye due to it's beautiful colors. The eye looks possibilities it offers are varied and interesting just like I like an eyeshadow palette to be and the packaging is  gorgeous. Unfortunately and like in many other eyeshadow palettes, the matte  eyeshadows  are a bit hard to work with and I have to make an effort to build the intense pigmentation I'm looking for. But when I do get it, the final look combining the mattes and the shimmers is simply stunning. The palette was i nspired by the vibrant  muse  of Man Ray, Ady Fidel, the first Afr...

NARS has been a long time favorite brand of mine, and I think the main reason is because it has always kept it's high quality. No matter which products they decide to launch, you can be sure their performance will be impeccable. That's why I always pick up something from their holiday collection each year, and this year I really couldn't restrain myself. The Man Ray collection is simply beautiful and I truly wanted it all. But after a lot of thinking, I choose this threesome, and even received a little gift with purchase: NARS Man Ray holiday 2017 collection The veil cheek palette The veil cheek palette The veil cheek palette The veil cheek palette This is the most beautiful face palette, which contain the following s hades: Laguna Sun Wash diffusing bronzer (diffused brown powder with golden shimmer) Lovesick blush (satin watermelon) Surreal highlighter (glistening bronze rose) The veil cheek p...
