My Go-To Makeup while Moving

As I said in my last post, I'm back!

And I also mentioned that I'm moving back to my mum's since my (now ex)boyfriend broke up, which means mh makeup has been packed down, so I have a little makeup tray with makeup for everday, which I will now show you, haha!

Here you can see it all! Lipsticks, eyeshadows, brushes and everything else!

Here are my makeup items. My ELF Custom Eyes palette, DIY lipstick palette, 3CE Lip Pigments, ELF blush in Peachy Keen, Holika Holika Aqua Petit BB Cream, ELF Mineral Infused Face Primer in Tone Adjusting Green, Etude House Proof 10 Eye Primer, L'oreal Matte Morphose Foundation, IsaDora Mascara, Oriflame Mascara and the H&M Liquid Eyeliner.

¨

Here's my ELF palette! I have 14 shades!

Ivory - Pink Ice - Truly Pink - Wisteria - Periwinkle

Golden Glow - Wheat - Mocha - Moondust - Drift Wood

Sage - Navy - Aubergine - Dusk

Mocha is a lot redder than it seems in the picture, and Moondust is darker. The blitz doesn't do them justice at all.

Then there's my little DIY Lipstick Palette with 12 lipsticks. Again, the colors aren't completely accurate, but it's close on most of the colors. You can see the numbers, so I'll list the shades with numbers!

1. NK - Very Berry, 2. Color Works - Ebony, 3. Oriflame - Wine, 4. MNY - 809A,

5. Viva la Diva - Hot Tulip (More pink and darker), 6. Viva la Diva - Vampire Red (a true red IRL)

7. Miners - Baby Pink, 8. Miners - Cinnamon, 9. S.he Makeup - Just Peachy, 10. NK - Amethyst

11. NK -Berry Plum, 12. Viva la Diva - Cream Coral

As you can see there's a good mix, and I'm going to put all of my lipsticks in these palettes. I got this on eBay for $.99 and a full lipsticks fills up one container, so it's the perfect size and really compact for 12 lipsticks! Love it!

Sigma E50, Sigma F25, Joursna (no name), Sigma E25, ELF Eyeshadow Brush

and then two random lipbrushes from a eBay brush set !

So that's the makeup I'm living with right now! Hopefully I'll have my full stash soon hehe. I just have to get in order, I hate moving and cleaning and ugh! Wish me luck, hah!

I'll see you soon :*

Overview - My Makeup Collection in Pictures!

I was talking to a friend of mine about how much makeup I have, since I've been giving away 50 makeup items and 24 brushes and I'm about to give away 10 more brushes and 3 makeup items to said friend, so I told her I had ALOT of makeup, probably more than I'll ever need, so here are some pictures of my collection!

On the right side of my desk I have these letter-organizers with 7 palettes in them. They used to hold 9, but I've given two away.

Here's my 10 Blush Palette, 15 Concealer Palette and ELF Beauty Encyclopedia for Eyes. Both the blushpalette and the concealerpalette I got off eBay, so they're not by a brand.

Then there's my Manly 120 Palette with a wide range of colors in it. I also had the Sersell 88 Natural Palette and the 88 Shimmer Palette in here, but they've been given away as I like the 120 palette better.

Then there's my MAC palettes which does  not hold any MAC Eyeshadows. To the left is my DIY Vacation-Palette which you can read more about HERE, as well as two more with random eyeshadows and such in them.

In my desk there's several drawers, and this is one of them. Smaller palettes, and a few gel liners, a black eyeshadow and a little Gosh Duo and more.

Here's the content of my smaller palettes. 

Top Row L-R

IsaDora Matte Chocolates Palette, ELF Custom Eyes, ELF Custom Eyes

Bottom Row L-R

Max Factor, MAC, ArtDeco, Oriflame Blush, Visions Pearl Shimmer Highlighter

Then there's my foundation/BB Cream/Concealer drawer which is placed inside a cabinet on my wall.

Contains foundations and BB Creams from Max Factor, Skin79, Holika Holika, Maybelline, Garnier, H&M, MUA, L'oreal and IsaDora, as well as concealers from ELF, Garnier and Viva la Diva.

My drawer of powders, blushes, highlighers and bronzers are next!

Powders from Kubiss and ELF.

Blushes by ELF, L'oreal and Music Flower

Bronzer by IsaDora, L'oreal and ELF

Highlighters by ELF and Skin79

Then there's my crazy liner and base-drawer.

Bottom left has lipliners from all kinds of brands; ELF, L'oreal, Max Factor, Maybelline, eBay and more, which the Bottom Right drawer has eyeliners from the same brands and also IsaDora and probably more there too.

Top left has eyeshadow primers and bases from Hema, ELF, Etude House and more, and the last section has liquid liners from different brands as ELF and L'oreal ++

Then there's my eyeshadow drawer. In the back I have some sponges, and a little section with ELF and some other brands. Then there's the left drawer which has my L'oreal Infalliable Eyeshadows, IsaDora Mineral Eyeshadows and Miners Dip'n'Define eyeshadows. Last box has H&M Dip eyeshadows, Viva la Diva, IsaDora, ELF and even more stuff.

Then in my little drawer-sections from IKEA, named Helmer I have this drawer filled with lipstick and tube-glosses. There's ELF, IsaDora, Maybelline, Gema, Viva la Diva and more.

Back to my desk where I have this basket with my everyday-stuff. Again; ELF, IsaDora, L'oreal, Wet n Wild, YSL, Nivea, Missha, Garnier, Gosh, H&M etc.

Also on my desk I have this little DIY-project with lipglosses. On the top I have some mini's by Miners, then middle left are my H&M Lipglosses, then the middle right and bottom right are by Pierre Rene, and the two other from are miscellaneous brands.

On a rack righ next to my desk I have the bottom shelf filled with makeup brushes, again random brands; Sigma, ELF, Joursna and eBay.

On the same rack but on the top shelf I have all my nailpolishes. H&M, Viva la Diva, ELF and more H&M, haha. I really love H&M nailpolishes!

And then, at last, on the top of my Helmer drawer-set I keep my lipbalms in the back and perfumes on a tray in front. Parfumes from Kimmi Fragrance, Escada, Calvin Klein, Jean Paul Gautlier, Versace and some random small ones and samples.

Phuufh, that was a huge post with a lot of pictures! But I really like watching makeup collection posts and videos, so if you have one too, let me know and I'll check it out =)

If you would like a more depth post or video with my Makeup, Nail Polish or Parfume Collection, then let me know! I've been thinking about doing an Updated Makeup Collection Video for a long time, but when I filmed it it didn't look right, it was dark and then I ended up giving away a lot of stuff I didn't use, so maybe I'll use the footage for a before/after video.

If you see anything you would like a review on then let me know that too!

Anyways, thank you so much for sticking with me through this enormous post, and I hope you enjoyed! I would really apprechiate it if you'd like to follow my blog which you can do through Google Friend Connect to your right. Thanks again!

Review: Viva la Diva Lipsticks

I have already done a review on these lipsticks on my youtube-channel, but that was before I got a proper camera, so the video is very bad. Here is a blogpost about them with swatches both on lips and on my hand.

Here is the packaging. I think it's very pretty with the small gems on the cap and the logo. It's also got a sticker at the bottom with number and name, but it also says the name on the sticker with the barcode.

The colours are, left to right:

Hard Rock Sweetie

Really Pink

Vampire Red

Cream Coral

Hot Tulip

All off these colours are very soft and smoothe, they're not frying at all, and they contain Vitamin E to help soften and moisturize your lips. The only exception might be Really Pink. It's got shimmers, or glitters, in it, and therefor it wont go on as smoothly as the others. The lipstick is still very comfortable on the lips, though.

LIPSWATCHES, haha!

This is Hard Rock Sweetie.

It is a cream finish, and the colour is kind of milky baby pink, and it's very pretty, but sadly it's not the easiest colour for me to wear.

Really Pink is a very bright pink with a lot of shimmer. 

Very pretty as well, but not as wearable as the rest.

A little too "In your face" for my taste, at least for everyday-wear.

Vampire Red is the best red I've ever used in the lipstick form. It's so smoothe, pigmented and just wonderful.

I haven't noticed any noticable blue or orange undertones to this, but I might be wrong. 

Very, very bright, so for school and everyday I like to wear something a little more subtle.

Cream Coral is obviously a coral colour, but it's a very orange coral.

For a while I didn't like this on me when worn alone, but it's grown on me, and now I really like it. 

Shame I wont really be able to wear it until summer comes around again...

It is a red, but it's got a slight pink tint to it. it's a wearable colour if you like bright colour.

It's a good thing it's not too bright, because this could be a bit over the top, at least for a lot of people out there.

I love these lipsticks. They are fairly cheap as well, I paid 60 NOK for these, so around $10. Here in Norway this is pretty cheap for a lipstick, considering we pay twice the price of this for a L'oreal lipstick.

They are pigmented, smoothe, I haven't noticed too much feathering or bleeding with these either, sot that's great! The only downfault is that Viva la Diva is a Swedish brand, and not very widely availiable. Of course, you could probably get these online if you want to.

They have a great variaty of colour too, all the way from bright red to black and purple. There's also a bunch of nude colours and light pinks if you prefer that, so go for it.

Definatly worth the price!
