Buxom True Hue Blush Rendezvous & Brush Review & Swatches

Hi Beauties,
 Today I bring you Buxom True Hue Blush in Rendezvous & the Buxom Blush Brush!
 I've been wearing the buxom blushes for about a month now. The one I am reviewing today is Rendezvous a gorgeous soft raspberry with gold twinkles. It comes in a sleek black case that flips open with a mirror on the inner part of the lid. This blush is buildable & last all day long. The colors are not very pigmented but with two swipes, you are good to go. Please note that I simply press my brush into the palette & apply. If you swirl your brush on the palette you will pick up more product & won't have to double swipe.
 Now for the brush! The brush is a full tapered head with a silver metal handle. The brush head is similar to the Multi-Tasking Brush that came out in the Purist kit a few years back. It is ultra soft. I always recommend washing all brushes before use, especially this one. The hairs are dyed & may alter the look of your blush.
 All in all I am really enjoying the Buxom True Hue Blush in Rendezvous! It gives me a beautiful healthy glow that last all day!

Here are some photos of the brush.


Here is the blush!

Too Faced Matte Eye Palette Review & Swatches (picture heavy)

Hi Beauties,
 Here it is finally! My favorite matte eye palette ever! I am so excited about sharing this with you! Although most of you know I am not a big fan of matte, these are amazing! I am in love!
These palettes from Too Faced are so awesome! They contain 9 eye shadows & 3 different application tip cards in a compact package. The application tip cards are in a slide-in compartment on the lid of the compact. Neat right?  I love that the 3 lighter, base shades are about 3 times larger than the other shades. The shadows are powder but they are super creamy & silky in texture. They are nicely pigmented. There is a total of 3 looks, Day, Classic & Fashion but the possibilities of looks are endless with these gorgeous 9 shades! For the Day look you have Tufted Suede is a soft camel shade, Chinchilla is a gorgeous milk chocolate brown & Coffee Bean is a beautiful rich dark chocolate. For a Classic look you have Velveteen Bunny a soft cream vanilla, Pebbles a gorgeous wet cement grey & London Fog a deepest navy blue. And for your Fashion look you get Fresh Linen a beautiful softest pink, Vintage Violet a muddy violet & Midnight a gorgeous charcoal grey.
 

You can purchase this cool palette from Too Faced online shop by clicking here or at Sephora by clicking here. And the purchase price is just $36, AWESOME!!!

Peace & No Sparkles LOL
