Victoria's Secret Make-up

Hi everyone!

A couple of days ago I went by a Victoria's Secret store because I wanted to purchase a new bronzer. While there, I also picked up "The Nakeds" palette and a lip gloss so I decided to write a little post about it :)

The Nakeds Palette, Color Drama Lip Shine, Baked Mineral Bronzing Powder
1. The Nakeds Palette
I decided to give this palette a try because the color selection is amazing and reminds me of The Naked Palette by Urban Decay. I don't own The Naked Palette but I would definitely love to since I've heard great things about it. In the meantime, I will be using this. :)
The packaging is pretty and very easy to manage
The Victoria's Secret website describes this palette as a versatile eyeshadow palette that has "everything you need to create the sexiest neutral eye looks of the season".


The palette includes 10 eyeshadows that range from "subtle earth tones and muted pastels to smoky gray and shimmery black". It also comes with a great black eyeliner and a dual ended brush.





The palette also comes with step by step instructions on how to get the Barely Naked and Seductively Naked looks.





 I really like this palette. The colors are very pigmented and you can create different looks with it. It is the perfect palette to create an everyday look but also a sexy smokey eye for a night out.

The price is affordable at $28. You can get this palette in store or follow this link for their website: The Nakeds Palette

2. Color Drama Lip Shine


This lip gloss gives a little bit of color and a lot of shine. I really like it, as it leaves my lips soft and looking luscious.  They have a wide variety of shades to choose from. This particular one that I have is a pale pink color which I think compliments a lot of skin tones and is great to wear everyday on its own or on top of a lipstick.
I don't know exactly what shade it is since it doesn't say on the actual lipgloss but I think it's the color "Pinup".

The gloss is $9.00 or 2/$15 or 4/$20 which I think is a great deal:)







3. Baked Mineral Bronzing Powder

"Bask in a bronze glow. Skin-loving mineral powders blend in a unique marbleized finish to give skin an instantly brightening touch of sun-kissed radiance." This is what the website says, which I agree with 100%. I really like this bronzer. A little goes a long way. It leaves your skin looking glowy and bronzed. The shade I have is Goddess which I think is one of the darker shades.




Like I said, the color is beautiful and the packaging, even though it's plastic, it looks quite expensive. I like it because it's really light and easy to carry around with you in a handbag.

The cost is $16.00


All in all, I think VS makeup is quite good in general. Some of the stuff is not always great but these products are pretty amazing and I'm glad I purchased them. I hope that this review has been useful to some of you and if you own any of these products or any VS products feel free to leave me a comment and let me know how you like them! :)

Until next time,

xoxo, Adela

    Hi Adela,
    omg this post is GODSEND! like i've been searching high and low for a review on their baked bronzer.
    Just one question, for this bronzer since it contains shimmer, do you apply it all over your face for a radiant glow or you do follow the contour&sculpt? im not sure if its pigmented enough for contouring. usually i just apply all over for a 'sunkissed' look.

      Hey! I'm glad this helps! I sometimes apply it all over and sometimes just for contouring. It doesn't have that much shimmer so it's ok. It's really pigmented and comes in different shades :) I recommend it!

      Xoxo

2023, A new Beginning

We made it to the New Year! It’s a fresh new beginning… then why does it feel exactly the same? If you didn’t have any party plans last night then you probably spent it in your home doing normal things, as I did. I had the TV on, watched a couple of shows, had a couple of drinks with my boyfriend and made some food. Then in the middle of Wednesday, episode 3, the clocked turned to midnight and the New Year was upon us. We paused the show, wished each other a happy new year, watched some fireworks that were being launched outside our home and then went back to watching the show! It felt exactly the same but at the same time it felt like a reset button was pressed. Today I woke up to new hope and looking forward to the future. Since New Year’s Day is a Sunday, I didn’t do much of anything. Had my regular coffee, breakfast and then had to pick up some medicine from the pharmacy for my boyfriends mom. Then we dropped her off back home to rest and we did a little shopping of our own

What a ____Wednesday! Molly Mae Hague Comment

What a comment! What if someone said "we all get the same 24 hours in a day" it is what you do with them that matters. How will that make you feel?  Well, someone did say that and that someone was Molly - Mae Hague. You probably don't know who she is if you don't keep up with British "celebrities".  She was on a show called Love Island where she found her current partner and boxer, Tommy Fury. They have been together and living together since 2019. They did not win the show Love Island but they were runner ups.  I have been a fan of theirs ever since. Molly has such a down to earth personality and they seem like they make such a cute and strong couple. Molly is on YouTube where she posts pretty religiously and her videos are definitely the type of videos that I watch and love. She posts day in the life type of videos, makeup videos, lifestyle and more!   Ever since being on Love Island, Molly has gained over 6 million followers on Instagram and quickly becam
