FOTD: Green With Envy

  
My Sugarpill collection doesn't get as much love as it deserves, so i decided this definetly needed rectifying! I've been suffering a bit with my skin lately (hence the lack of FOTD's) so i was pretty chuffed at today's attempt.

It's a little more dramatic then I'd usually go for, especially the lashes! But I was pretty happy with how it turned out, just not so happy i couldn't really get a decent picture!
 
Eyes:
Urban Decay - Primer Potion
Sugarpill - Junebug and Goldilux
Sugarpill - Taco, Midori and Bulletproof
Elf - Black Liquid Liner
Urban Decay -  24/7 Eyeliner Black
Red Cherry Lashes - #304

Face:
Skin79 - BB Cream
Estee Lauder - Double Foundation in Shell
Elf - HD Powder
The Balm - Frat Boy Blush


Sugarpill still remains some of my all time favourite pressed and loose eye shadows and these will definitely get the love they deserve over the next few months. I currently have the complete collection of Sugarpill loose and pressed eye shadows so feel free to check out reviews and swatches here, here and here.

On another note, just under two weeks till IMATS... Eeeee excited!

Sugarpill Review Part 2 - Chromalust Trios


Aloha! 

This is yet another overdue post! These beauties have been sat in my drawer for over a month waiting to be photographed and swatched, I'd been waiting on some nice sunlight but I've given up hope trying to get that since England's pretty gloomy constantly. These are half of the Chromalust eye shadows available and I'll be reviewing the other half as soon as possible. If your a fan of bright, shimmery or out there colours these are definitely for you!

Sugarpill is a USA based brand but i managed to get these from Genie Cosmetics which are based in the UK. The official Sugarpill website no longer sell the trios but at £18.99 for three i had to snap these up because priced at $12 each that's some great value!
 

The packaging of all Sugarpill products is super cute. The only downside to the packaging with these is that if your not careful these can be a little messy. You get 5g of product per jar so these will last a long long time. All of these are completely vegan and cruelty free! I've found these are best used over a sticky base like Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy or wet to get the best results.
 
 My camera really hasn't done these nearly enough justice, the gloomy weather here is bloody annoying! All of these were swatched over a small amount of Pixie Epoxy as it gives the glitter a little more stick and gives a better representation of the colours. Stella surprisingly is my favourite out of the three, it's rainbow sparkles are absolutely stunning! 
 

My camera hasn't picked up the glitter in the others but eeee look at Stella sparkle!
 
My favourite trio of the bunch! I've been playing around with a look using Goldilux and Junebug and shall get some pictures up soon, I'm in love!


Again my camera hasn't done these justice but you get the gist of how stunning they are!


Three just as beautiful colours! 
 


All in all I'm still extremely impressed with Sugarpill. I still utterly adore their pressed eye shadows and will be making a big effort to use these more because they are beautiful! The only downside with them is the lack of sifter, but that's not exactly a big thing. To anyone who loves bright and bold colours I'd highly recommend any of Sugarpill's products, and even to the less daring there's still come gorgeous shades to try!

You can buy the trios in the UK online here.
Or you can check out the entire Sugarpill range on their official website here.

Which shades are your favourites?!
