Hibernophilia:Guide To St. Patrick's Day Make-up/9 Ways To Wear Green

Green is my absolute favourite colour and I personally think it is one of the most universally flattering ways to wear colour in your make-up. It can be teamed with a variety of lip and cheek colours and the possibilities of how you choose to wear green are endless. Over the past three weeks I filmed a guide to St. Patrick's Day make-up, with nine ways to wear green. These looks are sure to make all ages look festive for the greatest Irish celebration. 

Hibernophile: A lover of all things Irish. 

9 different days, 9 different ways. 

Look 1  - Green Halo Eyes

Look 1 is an intense smoky green eye which highlights the centre of the lid as the main focal point. This look is teamed with cream pink gloss.

Too Faced Chocolate Bar

It feels like Christmas has just ended but as many people are in the midst of Lent, also known as a six week long period of chocolate deprivation, that means that Easter is just around the corner. What better way to feed both a make-up and chocolate addiction, than with the Chocolate Bar, Too Faced's latest palette which offers cocoa-infused eyeshadows.

Looks good enough to eat. 

When I was teenager I imagined working for Thornton's just so I could empty their ice-cream filled waffle cones from the shelf. As I grew older my desire to be employed by Cadbury/Mars/Green & Black's/Lindt/whoever makes Kinder Bueno as a professional taster was an unattainable saccharin-filled dream.

In reality, they'd have to crane me out of the factory. My colleagues would find me in cocoa bean coma surrounded by a haze of purple foil wrappers, discarded boxes and with broken Malteasers embedded in the ever-growing folds of my fingers.

Keeping the dream alive on the frontline of the Cadbury factory. Image taken from SWNS.

Before this post reveals any more of my Daim bar addiction, I will revert your attention to the prodcut at hand. As soon as you open the Chocolate Bar palette, the sweet scent wraps your nose, tickling the back of your throat and making your mouth water for more.

Top row from left to right: Gilded Ganache, White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Black Forest Truffle, Triple Fudge.
Middle row from left to right: Salted Caramel, Marzipan, Semi-Sweet, Strawberry Bon Bon, Candied Violet, Armaretto.
Bottom row from left to right: Hazelnut, Creme Brule, Haute Chocolate,  Cherry Cordial, Champagne Truffle. 

Visually, this palette is  stunning. With it's sturdy tin case, it is perfect for travelling so you don't have to worry about the shadows shattering. The Chocolate Bar is laid out with sixteen delicious chocolate, honey and candy hues in a mixture of textures including mattes, shimmers and glitters. Too Faced thoughtfully included two larger highlight shades in the inevitability that they would be used the most. 

16 gorgeous shades made up of 7 mattes and 9 shimmers. 

The shadows are beautifully pigmented, buttery-soft, build-able and blend effortlessly into one another. The colours include:

• Gilded Ganache -  shimmering dark brown with olive and gold sparkle.
• White Chocolate - matte bream beige.
• Milk Chocolate - matte mid-toned warm brown.
• Black Forest Truffle -  burgundy with flecks of bronze/gold glitter. 
• Triple Fudge - matte rich deep dark brown.
• Salted Caramel - matte mid-toned orange brown.
• Marzipan - shimmering neutral pink.
• Semi-Sweet - matte mid-toned brown. 
• Strawberry Bon Bon - matte cool baby pink.
• Candied Violet - shimmering cool purple.
• Armaretto - shimmering warm copper.
• Hazelnut - shimmering bronze.
• Creme Brule - shimmering gold.
• Haute Chocolate - shimmering taupe with multi-coloured glitter.
• Cherry Cordial - demi-matte reddish brown. 
• Champagne Truffle  - shimmering pale pink beige.

This palette is also beginner-friendly as Too Faced include a how-to guide to help make-up novices build upon their skills and give inspiration to beauty addicts.

With this palette, you can create many wearable, everyday and neutral eyes as well as sultry and smokey date-night looks.

This palette just makes me want to be Disney's very own alternative candyland princess of Sugarush, Vanellope Von Schweetz.

The variety this palette offers will appeal to many make-up lovers and the niche chocolate bar packaging will satisfy your non-literal sweet tooth, making it so good that even your dog will want a taste. 

Bailey can't help himself. 

Too Faced Chocolate Bar makes the perfect gift for any girl who can't resist chocolate. 

The net weight of this palette is 13.3g making the 12 smaller shadows under 1g and the two highlight shades 1.6g each. 

Available in the UK to Debenhams web store for £45and Sephora for £30.99 (excluding shipping and handling).

Available in the US and other countries from Too Faced, Sephora, and Ulta for $49.

Urban Decay Naked Flushed vs. Sleek Face Form

Since the beauty blogging community expanded in popularity in the late 2000's, brands want to offer innovative products that will keep gurus talking and consumers consuming. Big beauty brands are in competition with each other to be in vogue for hauls, reviews and demonstrations, and along with huge conglomerates owning the majority of cosmetic houses, there are no doubt going to be similar offerings of products in order for make-up businesses to be one step ahead. 

Urban Decay and Sleek are popular for different reasons. Urban Decay initially rose to fame for their "beauty with and edge" products but have now spread the love to neutral wearers throughout the globe with their Naked collection of nude hues. Sleek's affordable, yet incredibly pigmented blushers, lipsticks and eye palettes ensured Sleek a secure place among YouTube's beauty community. Both brands are two of my favourites and have palettes containing everything you need to enhance your complexion after foundation. They are Urban Decay Naked Flushed and Sleek Face Form palettes.

Left: Urban Decay Naked Flushed palette.
Right: Sleek Face Form palette. 

Urban Decay thought of what a make-up user would use the most and this is clear in the layout of their Flushed palette. Sleek simply added a complimenting blusher on to their original contour kits.

Left: Urban Decay Naked Flushed palette.
Right: Sleek Face Form palette. 

Unfortunately, the Flushed palette only comes in one colour and is only going to suit light to medium skin tones. The bronzer/contour shade is the largest of three as bronzer is a product that is used on more areas of the face, neck and décolletage. The middle shade is shimmering pink champagne, reminiscent of darker powder formula of their previously discontinued Urbanglow 'Sin' cream highlighter. The blusher on the right side of the Urban Decay palette dusty raspberry rose hue. This is a universal shade that would suit most skin tones as many people naturally flush this colour, thus giving credence to this aptly named kit. 

Sleek makes up for Urban Decay lacks and offers their Face Form in four shades including Fair, Light, Medium and Dark, catering to all skin tones.  It would have been nice for Sleek to include a matte blusher the way Urban Decay did.  Even though they look different in the palette, they swatch quite similarly in the photo below. However, when applied to the face the do vary in colour and finish. 

Top: Urban Decay Naked Flushed palette.
Bottom: Sleek Face Form palette. 

So who wins in the battle of the complexion kits? It's is hard to decide as both palettes offer the consumer something different in terms of texture, finish and colour. I cannot recommend one in particular as people would need to consider various factors before buying. The list of pros and cons for each palette is listed below, which may help you decide which one to buy (unless you are like me and must... have... both). 

Urban Decay Flushed palette: Pros

• Sizes of each shade corresponds to how much a person would use of that particular section on their face. 
• Blusher shade is matte, allowing the consumer to decide if they add want to add more sheen with the highlighter. 

Urban Decay Flushed palette: Cons

• Most expensive of the two, although considering the price of similar separate products from Urban Decay, this is not going to be the deal-breaker for some shoppers.  
• Only comes in one , supposedly universal, shade.

Sleek Face Form palette: Pros

• Comes in a variety of colours to suit many skin tones. 
• Least expensive of the two, which in fact is cheaper considering the price of a separate contour kit (£6.49) and blusher (£4.49) together is more expensive. 

Sleek Face Form palette: Cons

• Blusher is not matte so may not be suitable for some for day-wear.
• Sizes are consistent so the user may hit pan on contour or blusher before highlighter and may need to repurchase just for one section. 

Both palettes are perfect for travelling, and whilst they do vary in colour and finish, there is no difference as to what they are designed to do for your face. 

Urban Decay Naked Flushed palette £22/$30

Sleek Face Form palette £9.99/$14.99

Barry M Silk Nail Paint SS 2014 Collection

Barry M recently launched their Spring/Summer 2014 nail polish collection in the form of six pastel shades named Silk Nail Effects. 

From left to right: Pearl, Truffle, Blossom, Heather, Mist, Meadow.

The colours are Pearl (splashed white), Truffle (somewhere between tan and wheat), Blossom (amaranth pink), Heather (wisteria purple), Mist (light blue) and  Meadow (honeydew green). 

From left to right: Pearl, Truffle, Blossom, Heather, Mist, Meadow.

This collection are not like anything that Barry M has previously offered in terms of nail polish. Although, they dry down to a matte finish, they do not appear to be flat. They have a pearlescent sheen throughout their pigment which makes them appear to be silky smooth once dried. 

Matte finish with a beautiful sheen. Thumb nail- Pearl, Index nail - Blossom, Middle nail - Mist, Ring nail - Heather, Baby nail - Truffle.

Normally when I have applied colours like these, I often feel disappointed by the number of coats it requires to build up the desired opacity, however these silk paints only need two thin coats and dry within 20 minutes. 

Thumb nail- Pearl, Index nail - Blossom, Middle nail - Mist, Ring nail - Heather, Baby nail - Truffle.

Meadow got an exclusive hand as opposed to the rest sharing the nail love. Addicted to green.

These pretty colours will definitely help any beauty lover spring into summer. 

RRP £3.99 per nail paint. 

Valentine's Day/Night Make-Up

I love matching my make-up to the occasion and Valentine's Day is no exception. 

Best selfie pose.

Today though, I am in the midst of a respiratory infection and make-up is not on my to-do list. However, I was going to University and wanted to feel good so after watching Faith's Elsa tutorial from Nomadic Makeup I decided that was the perfect make-up to garner inspiration from. 

"I never knew what I was capable of." - Elsa, Snow Queen from Frozen.

It does take a lot of products to emulate a Disney Snow Queen. 

See product breakdown at the end of this post for a list of everything in this photograph. 

I kept the eyes hazy, soft and romantic for the daytime, but should you wish to enhance the look for date night, simply add liner and lashes.  For the eyes I used the Sleek Vintage Romance palette and Oh So Special palette (which are great alternatives to the Urban Decay Naked 3) and a heart shaped nail decal on the outer thirds. I also used a flesh-toned pencil on the waterline. 

This haze of colour was created using 'Ribbon' and 'Organza' from Oh So Special in the centre of the lid. The purple inner and outer corners and lower lash line consist of a mixture of 'Celebrate' from Oh So Special and 'Honeymoon in Hollywood' and 'Bliss in Barcelona' from the Vintage Romance palette. 

For the lips I used a Barry M 'Fuchsia' lip liner and Barry M 'Bubblegum Pink' lip gloss wand.

For my complexion I used L'oreal nude magique foundation, Rimmel bronzer, Sleek blush and MUA highlighter.

With my Valentine...♥

I think its perfect for wedding day make-up for brides who prefer shocking pinks and candied violets as opposed to traditional bridal colours.

I Love... Mango & Papaya Body Butter

Oh yum! 

If I could sum up this product in two words, the above introduction would be it. This body butter is by I Love Cosmetics and often stylised as I Love... on their packaging. I am avid fan of The Body Shop range of body butters, but not their £13 pricetag. I especially love their Mango and Strawberry scented butters and their Vitamin E butter. I was resisting buying more as I have other bath and body products to use up. But then I went shopping in Superdrug last weekend for hair dye and spotted this tub of exotic deliciousness among the remaining scents including Raspberry & Blackberry, Coconut & Cream, Vanilla & Almond and Strawberries & Cream. I couldn't resist trying out I Love... Mango & Papaya, especially as it was on offer for £1.48 (usual RRP £2.99). I bought three (two for me, one for mum) and first tried it yesterday morning before heading to university. I applied the butter to my legs, arms and décolletage before continuing with my regular routine. During yesterday's lecture, and forgetting about my new purchase, I couldn't help but notice a curiously fresh fragrance radiating in the room. This unfamiliar bouquet was even overpowering my daytime perfume and everywhere I went, this essence followed. It was only when I applied it again this morning that I realised that it was, in fact, this inexpensive yet invigoratingly perfumed bath product.  

There are no quotes on body butter.

Although, I'm not new to the I Love... range of bath and body skincare, I am new to this particular product. I have previously used their hand wash and now discontinued scents of their body butters. 

I Love... says:

"Feel refreshed with a burst of juicy mango and succulent papaya. Coconut and Shea butter leave your skin gorgeously nourished & silky soft, while my gorgeous perfume leaves your skin beautifully fragranced."

I say, I love I Love... Mango & Papaya and almost agree with their statement on this butter. Admittedly, The Body Shop Vitamin E butter leaves my skin feeling softer but for the price, the smooth texture and energizing aroma, I Love... is unbeatable. 

Smells good enough to eat.

Oh yum!
