Naked Palette 2





Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette ($50).

Finally! I was able to grabbed this product. It was sold out everywhere when it first launched. These shades are more taupe and darker than the first palette (which I haven't own yet, which I might consider to purchase). There are 3 matte shades in this palette just like the first palette. This palette is awesome!  This palette does the job for me.  It is very light and convenient for me to take with me for touch ups.  Urban Decay never disappoint me with their shadows. They are highly pigmented!  I am not going to do swatches because I don't have time to do. I am pretty sure you gals had already seen the swatches from other beauty gurus so I am not going to swatch these shadows. What do you think of this palette? Naked or Naked 2?

Lancome Idole Ultra 24 Hr Wear Foundation

This is one of my new favorite gig from Lancome.  I wear the shade in 230 Buff (W).  This foundation cost $44 and you can find this on their website or at any department store.  I suggest you go to a Lancome counter and get a sample first because not all foundation is for everyone.  I like this foundation and you might not.  The packaging on this new foundation is lighter than the Teint Miracle foundation that I also owned.  This packaging is more on the plastic side compare to the Teint Miracle foundation which is glass.  I love Lancome's packaging as always. 

Since this foundation is a prolong wear, I might not recommend this foundation for those who have dry skin because it will bring out your dry areas.  This foundation is perfect for normal and oily skin.  I love this foundation because it is long wearing.  I didn't have to retouch my makeup.  The texture is velvety and easy to blend.  This is my new favorite foundation for the summer!
