Anastasia Beverly Hills - Part 2 : The Amrezy Palette

Hello Chicas,

Here comes part 2 of my Anastasia Beverly Hills post, this time I'm showing you the eyeshadow palette I bought ^^

The Amrezy palette is an eyeshadow palette with 10 shades selected by the wonderful, amazing and world known MUA Amra Olevic better known as Amrezy, and produced by ABH! If you don't know her, you definitively missed something in life, follow her Instagram account @amrezy and check out her blogger page: glamrezy.blogspot.com :D

It's a good mix of matte and shimmery neutral colors, the upper eyeshadow row are all shimmery eyeshadows and the lower eyeshadows are all matte. The range of colors is exactly the kind of range I personally often go for. It has two light colors, that could translate a bit more thought, warm colors that are stunning, and some pop of color with a purple and a green color.

The palette has a really cool leopard print cover and a mirror under the lid. It also comes with a double sided brush which I already managed to loose xD Yes, true story!

All-in-all the shades have a good pigmentation and transfer easily to a makeup brush. The formula is a bit buttery and creamy, but with very little fall-out. They apply easily and blend out flawlessly, except Deep Plum and LBD, they are a bit harder to blend.

SWATCHES

My favorite colors of this palette are Glisten, Topaz, Caramel, Morocco & Deep Plum

Vanilla could be more pigmented thought, and I'm not totally satisfied how Iridescent Purple and Emerald turn out on the lid.

This palette is 29 $, I bought mine directly from the Anastasia Beverly Hills website. International shipping is a bit expensive with 18 $ but it arrives in about 12 days. I'm so happy with this palette, I reached out for it almost every day since I got it. Big thumps and congratulations to Amrezy for this creation, great collaboration with ABH!!!

EOTD

I also created for you one of my favorite looks from this palette to give you a clue what the colors look like applied.

I already showed you how I did my eyebrows and which foundation I used on my skin in my previous post. So I primed my eyes with Clarins Instant Light Eye Perfecting Base Primer, 'TOPAZ' on the lid, 'VANILLA' on the tear duct and under my eyebrow, 'MOROCCO' in the crease and 'DEEP PLUM' under the lower lash line up to the crease and slightly blended in the crease with 'MOROCCO'.

Sephora long-lasting eye liner on the upper lash line and along half of the lower lash line, then I blended the lower line with a pointed brush out.

 

And if you prefer more a winged eyeliner look you can do what ever look you like more. To make this look even more perfect I also added a beige eyeliner on my waterline but you can also go with a white eyeliner and of course mascara, Artdeco Wonder Lash mascara..

I hope you like what I came up to with. Let me know what your thoughts are about this palette!!!

Soon more post about more Anastasia products to follow ;)

With Love,

Anastasia Beverly Hills - Part 1: Dip Brow Pomade

Hello Girls,

As you recently saw I got myself the Anastasia Beverly Hills Amrezy palette and got the ABH Dip Brow Pomade in 'Chocolate' for my birthday from a dear friend. I will first review the Dip Brow Pomade for you before I pass on to the Amrezy palette. So here is part one:

My friend asked me in advance which color she should order me since she was about to place an order for herself and I decided to go with 'Chocolate', a color that is not too light and not too dark.

About the product:

• Waterproof brow color ideal for sultping, defining, and carving perfectly precise brows that won't fade;

• Smudge-free, creamy formula glides on skin and adheres to hair;

• Must-have for oily skin and himid climates. Tighten cap to prevent drying; 

• Cruelty free product.

I have read a lot about this product before and saw that a lot of MUAs I follow on social media use it. I used a lot of other eyebrow products such as eyebrow pencils, eyebrow gels and even eyeshadows to fill in but this is, by far, the best product I've used. And you only need a bit of the pomade.

Before/After

Before: no makeup at all

After: Dior Skin Nude in the shade #20 & ABH 'Chocolate' pomade

I love this pomade and I think I got the right color for me. It fills in all those little gaps and gives my brow a much needed groomed look. If applied lightly and blended well is very natural looking. It took some practice to get the hang of it but now it's part of my quick morning routine. I don't know about totally waterproof but stays on until you remove it.

Just to give you a small idea of what other pomade colors exist, they do have a few more...

And if you are blond and you don't know which color to use than I suggest you to try the blonde or taupe color!!!

I will buy soon more of their products and keep you updated about them ^^

Have a nice day!!!

Birthday presents!

Hellooooo,

Since my birthday was some time ago (12th August) I wanted to share my birthday gifts with you! I love presents, who doesn't? It's the only great point about getting older!

I had to wait 2-3 weeks to do this post because most of my family members and friends were having their annual holidays somewhere abroad and it's more fun when you see everything in one post.

Starting with the first gift! My mother left me some money before leaving for her holiday trip and when I was 2 days before my birthday at an outlet where they had an Swarovski store I discovered the one chain from Swarovski that I wanted ever since I entered a Swarovski store for the very first time. It was 1/4 cheaper than at the normal stores and since this was the last one left I couldn't resist buying it anymore, I just had to buy it :D The reason I didn't actually buy it before was because I have another similar necklace also by Swarovski, also with a purple heart, but smaller than this one and somehow another lighter purple than this, I received it about 3 years ago from my best friend. She bought the wrong one xD hahaaaaa She wanted to buy me this necklace below but took the wrong one. 

Some of my closest friends collected their money and bought me these unique Chanel earrings which I love very very much. They are huge and bling bling bling and I will only wear them for special occasions cuz I'm already scared to lose them.

A co worker got me these Konplott earrings with turquoise stones. They are simple and that makes them perfect for the everyday.

 

My best friend got me this year this wonderful double Stardust bracelet by Swarovski from their new collection <3 You an also wear it as a necklace. I already took some pictures that I'll show you in another post.

Another good friend got me this sheer lace t-shirt and bought me the Anastasia dip brow pomade in 'Chocolate' which I wanted to try for a very long time already. :) yaaaaaaaaay

And since I got some money from one of my aunts, I ordered myself the Anastasia Amrezy eyeshadow palette, which I will soon present you ;)

Since I kind of always by myself something for my birthday, a gift from me to me lol 

I know that's crazy!!! Like who the hell does that??? hahaahaaaa Well meeeeeeeee xD

It's something by Louis Vuittion... can you guess what? :D I'll show you soon in another post heheee

I also got some money from my aunts and other family members... which I spend way too fast.

This year I felt very spoiled but also blessed! Thank you to everyone who got me a gift or gave me some money!!!!!! And a huge thank you to my friends who joined me on a lovely evening with some nice dinner and a great time at bowling.

I love you guys :***

Sincerely,

IrSaDa
