Neglected Palettes Winter

I had a lot of fun posting about my five neglected palettes that I was going to use more during the fall. That post was inspired by Chelle of Makeup Your Mind and her YouTube Video on the subject. I ended up doing a few makeup looks for the blog using my fall selections so I thought I’d pick five new ones to focus on for winter. I by no means exclusively used these palettes during the fall but  I did make a point to reach for them more often. So let’s take a look at what I’m going to make a better effort to use this winter! It’s a perfect time to revisit old favourites that have become neglected as this month’s theme for the Canadian Beauty Bloggers is Shop Your Stash! Continue reading →

Morphe 35O

Another week, another neglected palette makeup look! This week I’m using the Morphe 35O Palette which was another one mentioned in my Five Neglected Eyeshadow Palettes post. When I see the Morphe 35O Palette I instantly think of a warm orangey makeup look, so since I have done that before many times, I thought I’d focus on the brown shades in the palette to switch things up a bit.

Colourpop Hi-Maintenance Palette

I’ve got another makeup look for you today using one of the palettes I talked about in my Five Neglected Eyeshadow Palettes post. Today I’m using the Colourpop Hi-Maintenance Palette. I think part of the reason this palette gets neglected is because it’s a quad. Nothing against quads but my general preference is bigger palettes. I like having lots of options to avoid repeating the same look with it over and over. However, it is a great palette – I love the colours in it and the formula is great. It deserves more use! Side note: I could have sworn I had posted a look using the gold shade previously which is why I used the pinks… however… in looking at my previous post about this palette… well… it’s pretty darn similar. But, I’ll share it anyhow! Continue reading →

Neglected Palette Makeup Look: Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance

In September I posted about some makeup palettes that were getting some serious neglect that I was going to make a point of using more this fall. My plan was to follow that up with a makeup look using each palette so this month I am going to work on doing just that! Today I’m featuring the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette. I typically do a warm and orangey or a pink makeup look using this palette so this time I decided to do something a bit different. Continue reading →

Neglected Eyeshadow Palettes

After an evening of cruising YouTube, a video by fellow Canadian Beauty Blogger and superb YouTuber, Chelle of Makeup Your Mind caught my eye. These days a unique video topic on YouTube is pretty far and few between but somehow she always manages to keep it fresh! The video that caught my eye this time was her 5 Neglected Palettes I’m Using This Autumn video. If you haven’t watched it, I highly recommend it. It really got me thinking about my neglected eyeshadow palettes and which ones I am going to make an effort of using more this fall.
