ETOS (Netherlands Makeup) Haul!!

 

***ETOS Haul!!!!! *** 

 

 

Last year my brother that lives in Amsterdam asked me what I wanted for my birthday.  Naturally, I looked to see what local makeup they had.....hahaha!! I found out about a store named Etos which I gather is kinda like Walgreens here. 

 

This is what I got last year:

 

 

Everything has great pigmentation!! I was so excited to try out new makeup!! ;)

 

 

The Smokey eye trio is amazing!! I told him how happy I was, so this year he sent me some blushes and a blue Smokey trio!! AHHHH!!!!

 

 

 

 

The only bummer is that they don't have names for the products, just a series of numbers.  I am beyond thrilled!! I haven't found anyone of YT reviewing or using these products.  I would love to hear if anyone out there has tried these products.  Leave a comment!

Hope you enjoyed this review-ish type haul.  And if you're ever in Amsterdam, take a break from the coffee houses and head over to Etos for some retail therapy hahahaha!

Let me know what kind of reviews you'd like to see.

Kelly Osborne MAC Dupe look (#copycatmakeup)

 

*Kelly Osborne MAC dupe*

Hi all!!!!!!!!!  To recreate this look I used the Urban Decay Deluxe Shadow Box. I unfortunately missed getting this collection.  They sold out within hours :(

So here's what I used:

EYES: UD Deluxe Shadow Box, UD 24/7 glide-on pencil in Zero and Benefit They're real. (and my staple UD primer potion)
LIPS: NYX lipliner pencil in Coral and believe it or not Maybelline's color tattoo in Fierce and Tangy.  It was a bit drying so I used Vaseline Rosy lips under and on top as a gloss.
CHEEKS: My Pretty Zombie blush in PCP from the Drugs Like Me collection.
**I toned it down a bit with the black under the eyes to make it wearable during the day.**

Hope you liked it dolls!!!!!!!!!!!  X0X0

Hahaha....my doe-eyed look!!

 Viva Glam Gaga 2 was my gateway lippie to MAC lippies.....once you go mac, you never go back LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!   The quality really is worth the price, stays on forever! 

(I didn't use lip liners on these so it wouldn't mess with the colors.  And FYI...I purchased all of these lipsticks on my own. No sponsors.)

Hope you enjoyed ;)

My Pretty Zombie Cosmetics review!!

      Helloooo!!!!!!!!!! Today I am excited to be reviewing a "new to me" cosmetics line.  I came to know about them through youtube. (Shout out to Tori at Biohazardousbeauty) 

             I ordered some eyeshadows and some sample sized shadows and blushes.  Not only are the names awesome, but the pigmentation is beyond words.  I am hooked on this line....HOOKED!!

           Anyway...enough chit chat! Here are some pics:

These are the items I ordered

The packaging was a pleasant surprise!  hahaha I got the finger :)

The full sized shadows I got were (in order): Mary Jane, Black Eye and Miasma.
I AM IN LOVE WITH BLACK EYE!!!! It is by far my favorite eyeshadow EVER!! haha obsessed much?

These are the samples....I think it's great that one can purchase sample sizes.  The left is under artificial and the right is natural light.  One of my shadows came with the bottom 3 samples.

These are the "Drugs like me" blush sampler collection.  O M G!!!!!  I will be purchasing pcp and mdma pretty soon........ahahahahaha! That sounds funny!

.......anyway, I was trying to figure out a way to store the samples so it's easy to use and this is what I came up with:

                                 **7 day pillboxes from walgreens and my trusty label maker**

I hope you guys head over to www.myprettyzombie.com  and try these amazing products.
And btw, I purchased these items with my own money. I'm just incredibly impressed with these products and felt like letting the world know!!!!!

Here's a combination of shadows I used to give myself a black eye.....I had to!!

Until next time, I'll see ya on Instagram!  XoXo
