Kylie Cosmetics The Blue Honey Palette

May 27, 2019 | Beauty, Kylie Cosmetics | 4 Comments »

Are y’all sick of my Kylie Cosmetics posts yet? I only had 3 products to share so this is the last of it. I couldn’t resist The Blue Honey Palette. Those teal shades are gorgeous! This palette was a must have for me.

The Kylie Cosmetics Blue Honey Palette contains 9 eyeshadows. For a small palette it sure does have a nice combination of metallics and mattes including a nice base shade. It always surprises me when a palette doesn’t contain one. I know I have so many in other palettes, but it’s nice to be able to create a full look using just the one palette. No need to reach for another. I’m especially digging the shade Royal Jelly which is a pretty metallic teal with gold duochrome. I only hope my swatch does it justice.

The shadows are all nicely pigmented. They applied and blended beautifully! I love pairing Blue Honey and Royal Jelly together. In fact for my look I applied Blue Honey on my lid and layered Royal Jelly on top. I really love how it turned out. You can see my look below.

Overall, I have to say it’s a cute palette. It even contains a few unique shades that I didn’t already have in my collection.

Have you tried The Blue Honey Palette? I feel like this will be a fun palette to use this Summer.

Kylie Cosmetics The Valentine Palette

May 20, 2019 | Beauty, Kylie Cosmetics | 4 Comments »

When I saw this palette I thought to myself ‘I have to have it!’ When I finally got my hands on it I have to admit I wasn’t that impressed. The outer box was a glitter fest. The glitter transferred to the outer packaging of the palette. It was a little messy. I tossed the outer box and wiped down the palette and got to swatching. I wasn’t impressed with the swatches either. The top row swatched beautifully! The bottom row was just ok. I was ready to write this one off as a dud. That is until I sat down to create a look.

The Kylie Cosmetics Valentine Palette contains 12 eyeshadows. The top row contains some very pigmented metallics with the mattes on the bottom. Those mattes really needed to be built up. And as you can tell they just didn’t swatch well. Well, some of them anyway. I was really worried. While creating my look I found that the shadows applied and blended so much nicer on the lid. Some shades still needed to be built up, but they built up nicely. You can see a look I created with the Kylie Cosmetics Valentine Palette below.

I loved the Take Me On Vacation Palette so much. It’s a palette I still reach for today. I was hoping the Valentine Palette would join Take Me On Vacation in my most reached for drawer. And it has. None of the shades are unique. Kandy Heart and First Date do stand out and are very pretty shades. But most of us probably have each and every one of these shades in other palettes. So if you didn’t get your hands on this one it’s really no biggie. But it is a super cute palette and I ended up loving it.

Did you purchase anything from the Kylie Cosmetics Valentine Collection?

Kylie Cosmetics Valentine Matte Lip Kit

April 29, 2019 | Beauty, Kylie Cosmetics | 8 Comments »

When the Kylie Cosmetics Valentine Palette came back in stock I took advantage and ordered the Valentine Matte Lip Kit too. I’m always hesitant about purchasing the Lip Kits because they’re so pricey. I wish some of these kits were sold individually. I don’t always have use for the Lip Liners. But it was on sale and I really couldn’t resist.

I’ve tried a few lip products from Kylie Cosmetics and really liked them. I don’t think the shades are really unique or anything, but this bright pink really stood out to me. And the packaging is super cute! I don’t usually use Lip Liners, but for this review I used both products in the Matte Lip Kit. The Lip Liner glided on nicely. It’s very pigmented and could probably be worn on its own. The Matte Liquid Lipstick applied nicely too. It’s a little watery and dries down pretty quickly. It felt lightweight and made for a comfortable wear. It lasted well over 8 hours. Toward the end of the day it started to feel a little dry, but it wasn’t too bothersome. It did leave behind a bit of a stain after removal. I did detect a scent, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. It sort of reminds me of a cherry cough drop. My allergies are throwing things out of whack for me these days. So that’s the best I can do.

You can see the Kylie Cosmetics Valentine Matte Lip Kit in action below. I didn’t pair it with the Valentine Palette because I wanted to do a pink look first. I didn’t want to go overboard with the pink.

Overall, I have to say that I love the Valentine Matte Lip Kit. I still don’t have much use for the Lip Liner, but I really wanted that lipstick. It’s gorgeous and absolutely perfect for Summer!

Have you tried any of the Kylie Cosmetics Lip Kits?
