Destination Sydney!

Hi Beauties!
 Here is my review of Destination Sydney, look out for Destination Santorini within the next few days.

I always love the Destinations collections. They always involve some pretty wicked shades and never disappoint. Destination Key West was by far my favorite until "hopefully" Destinations Puerto Rico which I have been hoping for since the first Destination kit.A girl can dream right?? I'd also love to see a Destinations Ireland!
 OK Back to Sydney! The colors are beautiful and I have never seen such a vivid deep blue, Bondi Beach,  in mineral makeup. Treasure Island was previously release in the Castaway kit which was an ULTA exclusive. So if you missed that you can get a second chance here. Its khaki green with golden shimmer. Sydney is a buttercup yellow sheen. Sort of reminds me of Soul. Plus the bag is so darn cute! Its the same color as Bondi Beach with a yellow flower outlined in white. Yeah that bag will travel everywhere this summer!
 I would love for BE to release these as singles because I would love to get a back up of Bondi Beach. And I must say out of the 3 Destination kits available now, this one is my fave!
 Below is some photos of the kit & of me wearing it. To copy this look is really simple. I first used Prime Time Eyelid Primer, with a Soft Focus Shadow Brush I applied Bondi Beach on the outer 1/3 from lash to crease. I then applied Sydney with a Contour Shadow Brush on the inner corner, inner 1/3 of lid & up towards my brow bone for a sheer wash of color. Then I used Full Tapered Shadow brush to dab  Treasure Island on to my entire lid & crease & over the Bondi Beach I had applied earlier. I then mixed Bondi Beach with a little Weather Everything & lined my upper & lower lash line with a Soft Focus Liner brush.




You can purchase Destination Sydney at BE's online store for $32. 

Peace & Sparkles,
 Jess
