Vivo Colour Block in Dreamy

The thing about eyeshadow palette is that I love seeing them, I love owning them, but to be honest I don't use them as often. I used to use eyeshadows but that cause I don't use any foundation. Now I pretty much wear foundation, so I hardly use eyeshadow. This past week however, I told myself that I have to use them. Particularly this palette.

I think this Vivo palette is pretty much the same as MUA Undressed Too palette. Which is considered the dupe for the Naked 2. I don't know about that as I don't own any of the Naked palette. I don't know why I have not, but I just want one Naked palette and I don't know which one to get. So I pretty much stick with the cheaper alternative.

As I have hooded eyelid, my eyeshadows are hardly the focus of my face. Most of the time you can't see them. So as long the color is able to show on my lid and it doesn't fade away as fast, I am happy. This do just that. It doesn't last forever, but with a primer, it last for a good 6 hours. As long as I don't rub my eyes. So ya, not bad.

The colors are quite pigmented. They are quite soft except for the Night, the black one. Sand is the yellow white matte base which can't be seen on my swatch. On the lids, it just neutralize the color of the primer. The matte shades are not that good as a transaction color, but it's still workable.

I prefer MUA palettes as I find them to be better shadows, but if they are suppose to be the sister company, wouldn't the shadows be equal? Maybe I'm just bias. Like those research where they test you which one taste better when in reality both are the same. But anyway, the shadows are ok and they are inexpensive, so overall it's not bad.

Shampoo, tried and tested

Klorane seboregulating treatment shampoo with nettle extract for oily prone hair. I went to the USA and UK website, but they do not have this version. Anyway this shampoo is good. I like it, smells good too. No fancy scent but it was not bad. Pretty hard to lather it up. In the end I tend to pour more than needed. If you want to wash your hair less frequently, there is a more practical and rapid solution: KLORANE Dry seboregulating shampoo with nettle extract. If you have an oily scalp and dry ends, you can use KLORANE Seboregulating treatment shampoo with nettle extract.

Givenchy Le Rose Perfecto Lip Balm

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty.
