REVIEW // The Balm - Nude Tude Eyeshadow Palette ♥

It seems ever since the popularity of the Urban Decay Naked palettes the world and his wife have been having a pop at creating their own versions. I am fairly new to theBalm but while I was having a browse on Feel Unique I came across some of their products and this eyeshadow palette really stood out to me.

The eyeshadows are homed inside a magnetic cardboard palette which feels really sturdy, I wouldn't worry if I accidentally dropped this or would I have any concerns about carrying it around in my handbag. The packaging is so lovely with a gorgeous vintage feel about it. The palette is held in a card sleeve which mimics all the same detailing as the actual palette itself. The palette also contains a double ended shadow/liner brush and a mirror that runs the length of the palette. I purchased Nude Tude for £26.50 off of Feel Unique which I don't feel is too expensive bearing in mind you get 12 shadows and a double ended brush.

Look how fun this palette is. I love the 1940s pin up vibe it's giving off, it's such a gorgeous addition to anyones make-up bag.

Sassy - highly pigmented frosted white.
Stubborn - pinky peach satin.
Selfish - satin taupe.
Sophisticated - bronze/brown with golden micro-glitters.
Sexy - matte burgundy.
Serious - Matte black.

Snobby - Frosted champagne gold.
Standoffish - frosted peachy/beige.
Sultry - Matte brown (tan).
Seductive - satin bronze.
Silly - deep matte brown with golden and red micro-glitters.
sleek - deep chocolate matte brown.

As you can see from my swatches the eyeshadows are wonderfully pigmented. They are really buttery in consistency which in turn makes them a pleasure to work with, they blend effortlessly leaving behind a gorgeous polished look. After not really hearing much about this palette actually nothing at all, I have been left feeling very impressed and would highly recommend it to my fellow nude lovers out there :)

Do you own this palette or any other products from theBalm? If so I would love to hear your thoughts. comment below or you can find me on Twitter over at @Tiffsbeautyboxx. Thank you for reading lovelies, see you soon.

REVIEW // MAC Cremesheen Lipstick - Creme Cup ♥

*NEW FAVOURITE LIPSTICK ALERT* 

In yesterdays post I mentioned I ordered a few bits off Debanhams online during their 10% off beauty sale, so today I am here to share with you item numero 2. If you missed yesterdays post you can find it here. 

As I sit here writing this post I am actually kicking myself as to why I didn't purchase this lipstick years ago, it's so amazingly gorgeous I am actually in love. 

Creme Cup is a gorgeous dusky pink shade which means it will compliment any make-up look you're wearing, weather it be a bold smokey eye or just an everyday natural look Creme Cup is the perfect partner. I can see this being my go to lipstick throughout Spring/Summer paired with a pretty pink blush and natural eyes.

Creme Cup is one of MACS Cremesheen lipsticks. With it's creamy consistency it glides on effortlessly  with an excellent opaque colour payoff. True to 'Cremesheen' form Creme Cup leaves a gorgeous glossy finish to the lips. I think this is a beautiful colour for all skin tones and with its pretty pink colour its ideal for using everyday. Creme Cup is a make-up bag must ladies so if you haven't already got it I couldn't recommend it enough!! 

Do you own Creme cup? What are your favourite MAC lipsticks? Im loving my nudes at the moment so any suggestions please comment below or Tweet me over at @Tiffsbeautyboxx. Thank you for reading lovelies and enjoy this sunny Sunday.
