Urban Decay - "Vise 2" Palette

So, I visited my second favorite cosmetic store today, Ulta. Initially, I went in to pickup a couple of items I ran out of, but found myself stalking this BEAUTIFUL palette by Urban Decay. It was love at first swatch! Urban Decay is definitely the "it" factor of cosmetics. I'm a HUGE palette fan! If there is anything I seldom pass up, it's a makeup palette and a very well put together one, at that! The blinged-out "UD" gives the case to this lovely palette, it's classy touch. Pros: Their colors are so rich, vibrant, long-wearing and so, so gorgeous! Cons: Zip, zero, nada! I can't wait to try on the colors in this palette. To play them up, mix and match them. With the holiday's just around the corner, I'll have some really cool, new, sophisticated and elegant looks for all upcoming events. This is definitely a makeup addicts must-have! Once again, Urban Decay didn't disappoint! 

Available at: Sephora, Ulta, Urban Decay  - $59

Too Faced "In Your Dreams" Palette

PACKAGING, PACKAGING, PACKAGING! I'm a sucker for PACKAGING! Too Faced truly has the BEST packaging in the cosmetic industry! I just LOVE them! This palette happens to be a couple of years old, but I had never blogged about this fantastic find. The quality and quantity in this beautiful palette is unparalleled. I can't begin to describe how "velvety" smooth and blendable these eye shadows and blushes are. As far as the lip-glosses in this palette, well, I really prefer my Buxom. What I especially love about this palette is that, even if you are an amateur at applying makeup, Too Faced has got you covered with a side panel of wonderful, beautiful, different looks that you can achieve all on your own.

Note: This palette may not be available at a Sephora or an Ulta near you, but you can definitely try finding it online. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

Buxom "Lip Plumping" Lip-gloss

Pucker up! One sure way to get a great pout is through these "ah-mah-zing" lip plumping lip glosses. They naturally create the look of fuller, more voluptuous lips. They have a peppermint patty sensation when you put them on. It doesn't exactly tingle, they just make your lips feel cool. I'm a huge lip-gloss kind of gal and these are definitely worth the price. They are super moisturizing too! Sephora is the #1 retailer for this product. Buxom is no longer sold at Ulta. Bummer!
