Becca x Chrissy Teigen

Hello & Welcome To LateButGlossed!

Another Highlighter Palette That I Have Currently Been Loving Is The Becca x Chrissy Teigen Glow Face Palette.

It Contains 2 Shimmering Skin Perfectors, 1 Blush & 1 Bronzer. The Shades From Left To Right Are Rose Gold, Hibiscus Bloom Blush, Malibu Soleil Bronzer 

& Beach Nectar.

The Packaging Is A Beautiful Sleek Rose Gold Design With A Rose-Quartz Like Front.

I Love How Versatile The Palette Is! I Like To Use The Highlighters & Bronzer As Eyeshadow.

I Like The Formula In These Powders They Are Very Smooth And Blend Out Easily. I Also Like The Good Sized Mirror Housed Inside The Palette.

This Retails For £40

These Are The Swatches Of The Powders!

The Left Is Without Flash & Right Is With Flash

I Also Ended Up Purchasing The Whole Endless Summer Glow Collection Apart From 1 Glow Gloss Which Hubby Very Kindly Treated Me To! The Packaging On This Range Is Very Pretty - I Couldn't Bring Myself To Throw Away Any Of The Boxes. From The Collection I Initially Purchased The Glow Glosses In Beach Nectar & 2 Beach Bum. I Also Picked Up The Glow Dry Body Oil

I Really Like The Dry Oil. The Shimmer Is Not Overpowering At All And The Mixture Is Gold & Silver Whereas Previous Dry Oils I Have Had Have Always Just Been Gold. I Also Love The Scent! It Smells Very Mediterranean With A Very Slight Citrus Note. The Only Thing I Could Say Is I Wish That The Bottle Had Chrissy's Signature Stamped Onto The Bottle Rather Than Just A Sticker That The Text Eventually Rubs Off Of. However That Doesn't Affect The Actual Product So I Can't Complain Too Much. The Dry Oil Retails At £32 For 100ml & The Glow Glosses Retail At £18 Each

I Love The Chrissy Glow Glosses. It Is A Very Good Size Product And Has A Slight Minty Scent (All Of The Glosses Are Minty Scented) And The Shade Beach Bum Is A Beautiful Everyday Nude

Huda Beauty Amethyst Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette

Hi! Welcome Back To LateButGlossed!

Today I'm Doing A Short Post On The Huda Beauty Amethyst Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette Which I Bought When They First Launched. I Was Torn Between The Amethyst Or Ruby But Thought The Purple Shades Would Better Suit My Brown Eyes. I Love The Quality Of The Packaging On This Palette Compared To My Coral Obsessions Palette. It Has A Demi-Matte Finish With A Nice Sized Mirror Inside Along With 9 Shades Of Shadow. The Only Thing I Would Maybe Have Liked Is The Shades To Have Names. 

Another Thing That Drew Me To The Palette Was The Fact There Are Only 3 Mattes In This Palette And This Girl Loves Her Sparkle! All Of The Shades Are The Usual Buttery Formula And The Pigments Are Also Great! The Shimmers Are Definitely My Faves. They Blend Out Evenly, Too!

I'm Not Sure If I'll Go Back For Any Of The Others Yet As I Really Should Use Up Some Of The Things I Have First.

The Huda Beauty Obsessions Palettes Typically Retail At £25 Each 

Thank You For Reading My Blog.

Have A Beautiful Day

Huda Highlight Palettes & Calvin Klein Women Perfume

Hello And Welcome To LateButGlossed!

If You Are A Returning Reader

 Thank You & Welcome Back

Today I'm Going To Do A Super Quick Post On

My Current Favourite Highlighter Palettes

By None Other Than The Gorgeous Huda Beauty

The One I Have Used Most Is The Winter Solstice Palette Which Contains 4 Shades In Total. One Cream And 3 Powders. The Shades In This Palette (Left To Right) Are Frosted Kiss, Arctic Glow, Northern Lights & Winter Rose

I Absolutely Adore That These Palettes Are Made In Italy. The Quality Is Out Of This World! The Cream Glides On Like A Dream & Creates A Nice Smooth Base To Work With.

The Powders In Huda's Highlighter Palettes Are So Buttery Soft And The Pigment Is Just Stunning! I Love The Packaging On The Winter Solstice Palette (Surprise, Surprise I Love The Holographic Details!) It Reminds Me Somewhat Of The ABH Moonchild Glow Kit But This One Blows It Out Of The Water In My Opinion.

Another Huda Beauty Highlighter Palette I Love Is The 3D Highlighter Palette: Pink Sands Edition. Again There Are 4 Shades In Total In This Palette, One Cream & 3 Powders.

The Shades In This Palette (Left To Right) Are Capri, Santorini, Azores & Ibiza. This One Is Probably A Bit More Catered To A Darker Skin Tone Than Mine However I Still Wear It And Make It Work. I Love The Rose Gold Glimmer That This Palette Effortlessly Gives.

Each Palette Typically Retails For £40 On Cult Beauty

And Although A Tad Pricey, It's Definitely A Worthwhile Investment And The Quality Is Definitely There.

 I Received A Sample Of Calvin Klein's New Fragrance "Women" In The Post Earlier This Week. 

What A Beautiful Touch To Have The Envelope Personalised With My Name! The Design Is Very Sleek And Smooth And Inside Were 3 Generous Samples Of The Fragrance.

I'll Be The First To Admit I Am Not The Greatest At Describing Scents, However I Am Also Very Picky About What Scents I Like. I Tend To Lean On The Side Of Sweet And Florals (My Mother Reckons It's The Time Of Year I Was Born, March. Whereas She Is November And Prefers Rich Spicy Scents.) 

Calvin Klein "Women" To Me Smells Very Floral! Like Roses And Has A Good Strength Without Being Too Overpowering. I Of Course Gave My Mum One Of The Samples To Try, Too And She Was Also Impressed! The Staying Power Of The Fragrance Is Also Very Impressive!

A Huge Thank You To Calvin Klein For Sending Me A Beautiful Sample To Try! "Women" Is Now Available To Purchase From The Perfume Shop & Boots.com

Thank You So Much For Reading My Post Today & I Hope You Enjoyed My Reviews Of Huda Beauty & Calvin Klein.

What's In My Makeup Bag?

Hello And Welcome To LateButGlossed!

If You Are A Returning Reader
 Thank You & Welcome Back!

I Hope You Are Having A Wonderful Day

In This Post I Thought I'd Share With You

What's In My Makeup Bag This October

At The Moment I'm Using This Tarte Aztec Print

 Makeup Bag Which

I Love As It Really Holds A Lot Of Products!

Currently In There I Have My Favourite Brow Product- The l'Oreal Paradise Brow Pomade. This Is A Gorgeous Addition To Your Make Up Bag.

It Is Rose Gold And Has An Eyebrow Brush

 On The End It's Also Water-Resistant Which I Like. 

It's Also Lasted Me Agessss!

My Current Foundation Is The Rimmel London Wake Me Up Foundation Which Is A Decent Match For My Skin Tone. It Feels Cooling Upon First Application And I Don't Have To Touch Up Much Throughout The Day.

Also In There I Have My Favourite Lip Products 

A Becca Glow Gloss In The Shade Beach Nectar- I Love The Colour, Sparkle & Slight Minty Scent.

Huda Beauty Lip Strobe In Enchanting Which 

Is Great As It's Not Too Overpowering When I Don't Have Other Makeup On. My Fave Lip Liner At The Moment Is Revlon's ColorStay Liner In Natural. I Like That You Don't Have To Sharpen It. It's A Beautiful Shade And Also Lasts Extremely Well! There's Also A Mini Sharpener On The End For When It Gets Dull But It Is Retractable.

I Have Previously Mentioned My Love For The Clinique Sweet Pots! Lip Balm & Scrub In One. 

It's My Winter Essential.

The Last 2 Products I Currently Have In My Bag Are The Maybelline Strobing Liquid In The Shade Light Which Makes A Beautiful Highlight For Pale Skin Like Mine And The Huda Beauty Gemstone Obsessions

Eyeshadow Palette Which I Have Been 

Enjoying A Lot Recently!

The Colours All Have Stunning Shimmer Which Is

Perfect For A Magpie Like Me!

 That's All For Today's What's In My Makeup Bag

And I Hope You Enjoyed This Post!

LMX By Little Mix Makeup

Hello And Welcome To LateButGlossed!

I Hope You Are All Having A Fantastic Week So Far!

Today I Thought I Would Do A Short Review On A Couple Of Bits

That I Picked Up In The Boots Christmas Section.

It Is LMX By Little Mix Beauty And As The 3 For 2 Offer Was On I 

Picked Up 3 Items In Total So Far.

Everything In The Range Is Super Affordable.

The Kits I Picked Up Below Were All Under £20

I Picked Up The Glitter To Glow Set Which Contains
 A Holographic Lipgloss Tube

And A Silver/Blue Glitter Eyeliner Which Is Perfect For The Festive Season!

All Housed In A Swoon-Worthy Holographic Zip Up Makeup Bag!

The Lipgloss Has Very Fine Shimmer In It And It Goes On Super Glossy!

It Is Also Slightly Scented Which I Love.

I Also Picked Up The Stolen Glowments Kit Which Is Also
 Housed In A Stunning

Holpgraphic Zip Up Makeup Bag But This One Is Larger In Size.

It Contains 4 Amazing Items! 2 Lip Glosses And 2
 Matching Liquid Illuminators

One Is A Hot Pink Shimmer And The Other Is A
 Beautiful Goddess-Worthy Gold

Again The Glosses Are Beautiful And Glossy! They Are Wand Applicators In This Set And The Shimmer Is Just Beautiful!

The Illuminators Have The Same Shimmer As The Glosses Making A Gorgeous Matching Look Foolproof. 
The Pink Illuminator Is Definitely More On The

Subtle Side But They Can Both Be Blended Out Beautifully 

 The Last Thing I Picked Up Was The Shout Out To My Pout
 8 Piece Matte Lip Set

It Comes With 4 Nude Matte Lip Shades And 4 Corresponding Lip Liner

Pencils. The Lip Shades Are Beautiful. They Have Great Pigment

And Are Very Easy To Apply. They Also Have A Slight Vanilla-y Scent Which Is Nice. The Liners In This Kit I Wasn't Overly Fussed 
About To Be Honest. I Found Them A Tad Dry. However This Kit Is Definitely Worth Picking Up For The Matte Liquid Lipsticks Alone. 
These Are Also Packaged

Very Nicely With The LMX Logo Being Holographic 

Along With A Picture Of The Girls.

The Next LMX Item I Have My Eye On Is The Get The Luxe Complete 

Beauty Edit. It Contains Bits From The Whole Range Including

Face Gems, A Makeup Brush, A Lipliner & Eyeliner

Highlighter Palettes & An Eyeshadow Palette!

It Retails In Boots For £40

Happy October!

 Hello And Welcome To LateButGlossed!

This Is "Officially" My First Post Since I Returned To Blogging

Last Month. I Would Firstly Like To Wish You All A Happy October!

I Hope You Are Having A Great One So Far.

I'm Definitely Not A Fan Of The Colder Weather Coming

But I Love Getting Cosy, Watching Movies & Of Course A Nice

Hot Cup Of Coffee Or Herbal Tea!

I Have Recently Discovered Huda Beauty (I Know, Living Under A Rock😂)

And I Became Instantly Obsessed. The First Lip Strobe I Tried

Was Enchanting & I Love The Smell! To Me They Legit Smell Like Cake!

The Shimmer In The Strobes Is Unreal! All The Heart Eyes!

They Also Have Good Staying Power For Me Considering They Are A Gloss. I Since Purchased Several Other Shades (Basically Almost The Whole Set) Which I Haven't Gotten Round To Using Yet (I'm Saving The Red For Christmas!) But The Other Shades I Currently Have In My Makeup Bag Are Ritzy (Gold) & Angelic (Rose Gold)

I Was Also Treated To The Huda Liquid Matte Lipstick In The Summer Edition "Bikini Babe" Which Is A Lovely Nude Shade.

The Liquid Mattes Also Smell Amazing (Like Coconuts!)

And The Staying Power On These Is Also Insane!

I Like To Wear These On Lunch Days As I Don't Have To Retouch! They Are Also Incredibly Pigmented. I Have Other Shades To Try In This Range Too So Once I Have Tried Them I Will Certainly Share My Thoughts! Both The Strobes & Liquid Mattes Typically Retail At £18 Each

I've Also Been Loving A Brand Relatively New To Myself - Becca! It All Started When I First Saw They Had Done Another Collaboration With Chrissy Teigen. The Minute I Spied The Glow Glosses I HAD To Have Them! I Eventually Got All 3 Shades In The Collection. The Shades I Currently Have In My Makeup Bag Are Beach Bum Which Is The Perfect Glossy Nude And Beach Nectar Which Is The Only Shimmer Shade In The Collection. The Size Of The Tubes On These Is Amazing! You More Than Get Your Moneys Worth On These Gorgeous Glosses. They Have A Slight Minty Scent Which I LOVE! They Glide On Super Soft, Too!
They Typically Retail At £18 Each 

Winter Is Never Kind To My Lips At All So I'm Always On The Hunt For A Good Lip Balm! And The Clinique Sweet Pots Do Not Disappoint!

I Have Stocked Up On 3 Of The Shades So Far. They Are Little Macaron-Inspired Dual Pots Of Loveliness! One End Is A Beet Sugar Lip Scrub And The Other Is An Intensively Moisturising Lip Balm (Think Super Balm But In A Pot Rather Than A Tube) They Are Certainly Amazing! They Are Also Not As Pigmented As They Look In The Pots. Instead They Leave A Sheer Wash Of Colour The Shades Pictured Below Are Red Velvet & Pink Framboise. They Typically Retail At £16

As The Darker Nights Draw In There's Nothing I Love More Than Settling Down With A Nice Hot Cup Of Coffee Or Herbal Tea From Pukka!

This Time Of Year I Pull Out The Pink Sparkly Mug & Get All Cosy!

Also Enjoyed These Delightful Fiendish Fancies By Mr Kipling Cakes - They Taste Like Chocolate Oranges!

Thank You So Much For Reading My Blog! I Hope You Enjoyed My "First Post" Returning To Beauty Blogging. I Really Enjoyed It Before And I Have Met So Many Amazing People Through Blogging Who Share The Same Passions As I Do!
