EOTD: the Haunted House eyeshadow palette, by Revolution.

For my final EOTD post this month (I don't wear makeup more often than I do) we're revisiting the only Halloween 2019 eyeshadow palette that I picked up - the Haunted House palette. 

This look is great for those of us who want to join in with the festivities, but need something that is toned-down enough to wear out without a costume & in the general public during the day and/or work...

EOTD: Revolution x Kisu...

Today I'm wearing one of my most autumnal-toned eyeshadow palettes, which also has some Halloween-appropriate shade names - it was a choice that was a bit of a no-brainer really, but for unknown reasons I waited until it was closer to Halloween before using it...

No; I don't know what's going on in my head most of the time.

Is this THE Christmas 2019 palette? The Lolita Por Vida eyeshadow palette, by Kat Von D Beauty.

"Fall in love for life with 18 romantic shades in matte, shimmer, foil and super-glitter finishes. Just like Lolita, all the shades in this palette were created with just the right balance of undertones to look beautiful on a range of skin tones. With warm golds and browns, go-to neutral tones and ultra-romantic rosy purples, there are endless ways to make your look your own, whether it's elegantly subtle or beautifully bold..."

I was rearranging my KvD palettes at the end of September and was thinking that I hoped that she wasn't going to release another 24-colourful-shades-shoved-together palette for Christmas, because she's done that several times in a row and it's getting old & predictable now, so I wouldn't have bothered buying it as I'm much more into more focused colour stories nowadays [my Serpentina, Fetish & Vegan Love palettes went to new homes in The Great Declutter of 2019]. The very next day I saw the promo video for Lolita Por Vida and started to get excited...

... and then almost two weeks before the launch date for the palette, Debenhams accidentally sold some palettes through their site - and I happened to be one of the people who got their hands on the palette. So I've had time to try every shade at least once, and I'm ready to share my verdict.

EOTD: Revolution x Soph - Extra Spice

After using the first Soph eyeshadow palette the other day, I thought that it'd be the perfect opportunity to now make good use out of the second Revolution x Soph eyeshadow palette ‐ the Extra Spice palette. 

I wanted to do a grungy, smoked out look today, featuring a pumpkin shade, to keep it on season...

EOTD: Revolution x Soph

I wanted to retry the envisioned look I had in mind on my previous post, as I had liked the image I'd had in my head, but I was really frustrated at how it had turned out...

I again used a palette I'm not keen on for my attempt at the recreation - I'm trying to get more use out of my freshly trimmed down collection, so I want to see if different products makes this work better.

EOTD: Ring The Alarm, by Morphe/Jaclyn Hill.

For this autumnal/Halloween look, I decided to try again with a palette that I wasn't keen on, in the hope that different primer, a different technique and different brushes, will make a difference on my overall opinions of the palette...

EOTD: Armed & Gorgeous, by Morphe/Jaclyn Hill.

 Is yellow widely considered to be a Halloween-type shade, or is it just me? Anyway; today I'm posting autumnal/Halloweeny EOTD, that showcases an eyeshadow palette that is more affordable and widely available.

I was sorting through my palettes when I realized that this Morphe palette contains similar shades to the ones I used in my EOTD post with my ABH Subculture palette, so I decided to recreate that look, to see how similar they turn out to be... 

Speedy review... Eyeball Highlighter in Eye See You, by I 💗 Revolution.

Today I'm posting my final speedy review on a Revolution Halloween 2019 makeup product. I've already looked at two of the three new Halloween themed highlighters by I💗 Revolution, so today I'm looking at the third one...

Speedy review... Eyeball Highlighter in Eye Scream, by I 💗 Revolution.

Welcome  to part II of speedy reviews on the three new Halloween themed highlighters by I💗 Revolution.

 I was curious to find out how the formula compares to Revolution's skull Halloween highlighters of previous years, so I've been spending the past few weeks trying them all out, and now want to share my thoughts on them one by one...

Speedy review... Eyeball Highlighter in Terrif-eye, by I 💗 Revolution.

I've just decluttered a load of highlighters, but when I saw the palettes for the three Halloween 2019 highlighters,  I fell down the rabbit hole again.

This year Revolution have passed the Halloween highlighter reins over to their sister brand I 💗 Revolution, so I'm curious to find out how the formula compares to Revolution's skull ones of previous years...

Speedy review... Haunted House eyeshadow palette, by Revolution.

I've bought Revolution's Halloween eyeshadow palettes for the past two years,  when they get reduced for clearance in November (there had been no point reviewing them after Halloween) and didn't like them; the shadows were dry and under pigmented and I gave them to my younger nieces to play dress-up with.

This year they have a glitter palette, two Chocolate Bar palettes and two tin ones - and my inner horror-loving teen needed one of them, solely based on the packaging and shade names. As the tin packaging is new for this year, I picked one of them in the hope that the new packaging means that they have new formulas...
