Victoria Beckham - Eye Metals in Ombre Metallique

I'm always into Victoria Beckham's collection with Estee Lauder. I have many from this collection.

One of the interesting items in the collection is Eye Metals in Ombre Metallique (£36). This eye shadow is in green but it will give you green and black colours with a bit of glittery effect.

It can be used for creating an intense smoky eyes and it's perfect for a festive look like Christmas or New Year's Eve.

Charlot Tilberry Lipstick in Red Carpet

If you are looking for a classic matte red lipstick, this lipstick is what you are searching for. This is my first Charlot Tilberry's item. It is a matte lipstick in classic red. It is called Matte Revolution in Red Carpet Red (€32).

I think this red lipstick can be applied in any looks including natural look to make the look more interesting and smoky eye look to make it like a red carpet look.

The color payoff is great. The lipstick is matte but it doesn't make your lip completely dry. So if you have sensitive lips like me, this lipstick is perfect for your lips.

Victoria Beckham - Lip Gloss in Desert Heat

If you wanna get the signature nude lip from Victoria Beckham, this lipstick and lip gloss can complete the look for you.

The nude lipstick in Victoria color (£38) and lip gloss in Desert Heat (£28) are the best combination for the Victoria Beckham's signature nude lips. They are from Victoria Beckham's collection 2017 with Estee Lauder.

The nude lipstick is perfect for intense smoky eye look. It might be too nude for a natural look. The lip gloss can be used in any looks. I paired these lips with skin perfecting powder from Victoria Beckham's collection (£62).

Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet - Fawn No.5

Burberry liquid lip has been one of my most favourite matte lipsticks. My previous favourite one was Dark Rosewood No.17 which gives you a pink nude look. I have realised that it gives too much pink sometimes. I recently found another Burberry liquid lip in colour, Fawn No.5 (£26).

Fawn is a perfect nude colour. Not too much nude that will make your face like you're feeling sick. It's nude with slightly pink colour. It can be worn in any looks either smoky or neural looks.

Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet

Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet - Dark Rosewood No.17

I have been looking for a perfect liquid lipstick. Finally I found it, Burberry lip velvet in Dark Rosewood No. 17 (£26). Unlike other liquid lipstick, this Burberry lipstick gives a matte look with a bit of velvet texture and it doesn't make your lips feel heavy. Other liquid lipsticks stay long but it's difficult to remove. This lipstick doesn't have that problem. It's easy to remove by normal makeup remover.

It gives a pink nude look. It's perfect for heavy smoky eyes look and everyday neutral look.

NARS NARSissist Dual Intensity Eyeshadow Palette

It's not often that I purchase eyeshadow palette. Why ? because I already have so many of them!
But I couldn't resist denying this palette from NARS - NARSissist Dual Intensity Eyeshadow Palette ($79). Just look at the NARS mirror package, it's so gorgeous!

This palette combines 8 dual intensity eyeshadows and it is a limited edition. These shadows can be applied in either wet or dry. The palette comes with an eyeshadow brush and large mirror. The colors can be worn versatilely from sheer (everyday or natural look) to dramatic for day or evening looks.

NARS claims that these eyeshadows are specially formulated for wearing up to eight hours. Personally, they could last up to many hours if you apply eyeshadow primer before using the eyeshadows. I have used 'Europa' on the middle of my eyelid and applied 'Ursa Major', 'Sycorax' and 'Giove' to make a smoky look. For the lower line, I used 'Subra'

YSL Rouge Pur Couture The MATS no. 209

Matte lipstick has been gaining more popular since the fall/winter 2014. If I have to pick a matte lipstick, I will gear toward to a red lipstick. One of the most gorgeous matte red lipsticks is 'Rouge Pur Couture The Mats no. 209" from Yves Saint Laurent. 

This lipstick has been launched since fall/winter 2014. It comes with a gold luxurious package ($36). It is pigmented and gives you a matte radiance but not too matte. If you got a sensitive dry lips like me, this lipstick wouldn't ruin your lips. I think this shade can be wearable for either party or classic red lips looks.
