UNII PALETTES!!!!!!!!

halo :)

so.. a couple of days ago i ordered three UNII PALETTES!! :)
and they came today!!


*warning heavy pic load!!!*





so.. if  you open the packaging.. there's instructions to how to depot and how to use the magnetic tapes to place the depotted shadows/powders

the palette comes with a magnetic sheet you can cut!! :) so you don't
need to go out and buy them separately

it has a BIG mirror.. and a thumb grip so you won't need to balance the palette when using!

snow; pomegranate; lemongrass



size.. compared to my hand lol

here's the site for the palettes: uniicosmetics.com
so far.. I AM IN LOVE!!!!!!!

they are $29 each and if you buy two it's $28 each, three-four $27each and five or more $25 each! so if you buy more at once, it's cheaper! and the shipping's free within the US! :)
they come in six colors: snow, coal, pomegranate, lemongrass, eggplant, and twilight

i am still contemplating what i should use them for.. but for now.. i decided to use one for my trip to cali :)

TOP: MISSHA-white, NYX-nude, MISSHA-BR02, MISSHA-GD01, STILA-makalu(black)
BOTTON: MAC-trax, MAC-smut, MAC-woodwink, MILANI-shock
benefit - get bent eyeliner brush, missha - liner brush, MAC brush

i always pack WAY~ too many shadows in different shades.. and i never use them.. just stick to the liners for that pop of color.. since i always choose sleep over makeup;;

of course i will take more makeup than the palette.. but think it's a good combo of shades and all i need for a week!! :)

i'm thinking about putting in a face powder for one of the palettes to carry around with me in my bag.. so will update when i figure out what would work best :)

anyway..
thanks for reading :p
and have a good one!!

my neutral makeup :)

ok..
so here's a bit about me..for whoever's reading :)

I tend to have very dry skin during winter which goes normal during summer..
however..
after i changed my skincare routine last September.. my skin's been turning into a combination type.. but! my cheeks and forehead seems to be in balance..
just not my nose and chin area; which seems to be getting more oily;

to be honest.. this really bothers me!!
I've had dry skin all my life and now i have no idea what i need to do to keep my face balanced lol

anywho.. here are my colors!

NC25/30 winter & NC35/40 summer
I do go tanning on and off during non-summer seasons but during summer I tan just walking around..
so I am one of those people who don't get sunburns and just gets darker and darker.. which I have no complaints about.. :)

I love the neutral and gold colors to play around with.. 
along with.. greens(deep), navy blues..
colors i don't grab for are the pastels..especially pink and bright blue! 
- i just don't think it suits me very well..

I'm a BIG fan of pencil liners.. i just think it comes in such a wide range of colors and when I'm in a hurry I just draw on some pencil liner for that pop of color without eyeshadow. 

that's all i can think of for now to share.. but! I am leaving a picture of my fave makeup i do just about everyday when i have a bit of time but not TOO much time or want to go full out! :p

enjoy!
