New: 1000 Hour Lashes Day to night packs

Spring is my favourite season in terms of fashion and beauty and while natural makeup looks are great, sometimes you just want to be a little more adventurous…with *1000 hour lashes day to night packs, you can go from a day to night look with just a change of your lashes (and a tweak of your makeup).

For the makeup looks below, I used the Exotic black pack.

1000 Hour lashes Day look
1000 hour lashesThe day lashes in the *Exotic black style are half lashes, I love this because they are much easier to apply and that aren’t too extreme for daytime wear.

Eyes- NYX jumbo eye pencil in ‘Yogurt’, Models Prefer Infinite colour eye pencil in ‘nude appeal’ (inner corners), Boe beauty liquid liner, Rimmel waterproof Wonder’full mascara in ‘001 black’

1000 Hour lashes Day to Night packs

There are two styles to chose from, *Exotic Black for more subtle looking lashes and *Daring Twist for more dramatic looks.

Both packs are reusable, waterproof and include adhesive lash glue

They retail for $15.99 per pack

Do you like to wear false lashes or do you prefer just your own lashes with a coat of mascara?

Hope you’ve been having a great week!

Swatch Saturday: Maybelline stripped nudes

Today’s Swatch Saturday is Maybelline Stripped Nudes lipstick.

This Maybelline (color sensational) stripped nudes lipstick collection has been around since last year, but because ‘Nude’ lips seems to be a repeat trend for this Winter, I thought I would do a swatch post for them.

There are 6 shades in the collection, but I only have 5…I have slowly collected them over a few months haha.

maybelline stripped nudesLeft to Right: 710 Sultry Sand, 725 Tantalizing Taupe, 728 Honey Beige, 740 Coffee Craze, 757 Naked Brown. The Maybelline Stripped nudes are $16.95 each from Priceline (currently on sale for $12.71)

Maybelline Stripped Nudes swatches

I was going to post lip swatches too, but my skin is playing up ATM and I couldn’t be bothered redoing the swatches with foundation on. However, I will comment on which shades I liked the most for my skin-tone.

Sultry Sand was not working for me at all! Because it’s so pale, it went on pretty sheer and made it look like I had no lips. It might be good as a lip base, under another colour maybe?
Tantalizing Taupe was the perfect nude lip colour for me, it has a pink undertone and it’s not too light.
Honey Beige was too yellow toned for me (I am cool toned, so this doesn’t suit me at all).
Coffee craze seems like it would be suitable for both cool and warm toned complexions. It is a ‘warm’ looking brown, but it worked on me still.
Naked Brown is a great winter shade if you’re into dark lip colours during the cooler months. It’s a deep almost mahogany brown.
