Catrice PR Event

Heyy Beauties,

Last Thursday I was invited to a Catrice PR event which was held at Level 22 Portomaso. I was sooo excited when I received the invite in the mail, I could not wait for the day to arrive.

At last it did, and I headed out all fancy and groomed up for the event. To be honest, I wasn't sure exactly what to expect...

When I arrived I was greeted with a flute of champagne. The first thing that I noticed was the stand full of Catrice make-up... could not stop staring of course.

As soon as I saw camera flashes, I knew immediately that that was the 'bloggers' corner', so I went that way. I sat on a vacant seat and some new bloggers, whome I never met before, introduced themselves to me, and from then on it was make-up make-up make-up.. These ladies are: Charlene from A Cosmetic Affair, Maya from Blue Jeans and Red Lipstick, Claire from This and That and Lyndsay from Splashes of Looks. Check out their blogs and follow them :)

L-R: Charlene, Maya, Claire, Lyndsay and me

There were a couple of new Collections on display that have been launched recently. The first one that I noticed was Celtica Collection, which seems to me very Spring oriented with pink and coral shades.. angelic like if you may. The next one is Eve in Bloom, which I think introduced Wintry type of colours but still at the same time bright. I will definitely check these out at one of Catrice's stands.

Other makeup that was on display on all the tables are as seen below:

At the end of the event, we were all given a goodie bag (stay tuned for a haul next week). I could not wait to see what there was inside. As soon as I arrived in my car I had to check and was so happy to get some of the products which I had been eyeing all night.

Thank you Catrice for inviting me and for the products that were given.

That's all for this post,

Until next time,

Take Care,

February Favourite: Make-up look

Heyy Beauties,

Hope you are all doing great :)

I have decided that instead of listing my favourite products for the month of February, instead I share my favourite make-up look that I have been wearing almost all month. I seem to have lost my appetite to experiment with colours and I'm sticking with the same 3 eye shadows.. it's quite strange. Have you ever felt like this?

Now, on to the make-up look:

First, I start off with Catrice eye shadow in the shade 'Icylicious' from the Ice Cream Collection that came out last Summer. I use this all over the lid, and also as a highlight under my brows.

Then, apply a black Nee eye shadow in the outer corner of my lid.. lightly and not in a smoky eye motion. Just to deepen the look.

Last step I apply a transition shade, in this case Makeup Store eye shadow in the colour 'Ghetto'. This shadow has been a favourite of mine for the past year.. love it.

The only thing that I am changing is my lip colour. Sometimes I apply a bold colour, other times, like in this case, I apply a natural shade. In the below picture, I paired my eye look with a Cinecitta lipstick in the colour '74'.

What is your favourite make-up look?

Do you like experimenting with different colours?



That's all for today,

Take Care,
