Dior Mystic Mettalics Palette in Bonne Etoile

Hey lovelies, I hope your all enjoying your weekend so far, today i've got a little gem of a palette that i picked up on my holiday in October to show you. 

The Dior Mystic Metallics Palette is from the Dior Autumn collection, there are two palettes in the collection 864 Constellation pink/purples and 384 Bonne Etoile brown/green shades and each palette consists of five eyeshadows. I was surprised to find i was drawn to the Bonne Etoile palette as I'm usually obsessed with pinks and purples, however the beautiful rich green shades just stood out to me and i thought why not try something different, i think they are the perfect colours for a really stand out Autumn eye look.

I was instantly impressed with how pigmented the colours are, the eyeshadows are all metallic and four of the five are also glittery. They really are great quality, they glide on easily, are very smooth and not at all powdery. The palette is just beautiful in itself to look at, cased inside a velvet pouch the shadows are embossed with pretty stars in the four outer shadows with the CD initials in the center.
The five colours, a dark olive green with gold glitter, a dark teal/green with glitter, an earthy brown with glitter, a shimmery silver with glitter and a lighter pastel green, all compliment each other well.
There are so many different eye looks you could create with the five colours, from more subtle daytime looks to more dramatic evening green smokey eyes.
I love how the colours make my green eyes really pop and i think its just such a gorgeous palette for a bit of a different look, i will definitely be rocking a dramatic green eye look over the party season.

Holiday Makeup Purchases!

Hey lovelies, i have recently been on a girls holiday to Gran Canaria, and so of course whilst there we indulged in a spot of shopping, it is a duty free island so i took full advantage of that and treated myself to a few cheeky high end makeup purchases! They were so much cheaper than here in the UK and i wanted to spend a bit of money on something other than just cocktails, and bring something home with me other than a hangover....

Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua-

I'd had my eye on this foundation for ages, i have been close to buying it so many times but was unsure how the light formula would suit my skin and at £32 a bottle in the UK its an expensive purchase, however on holiday as it was a lot cheaper i finally took the plunge and bought it. I was matched to the shade Beige Rose- Desert which was a great match. 

Lancome Hypnose Doll Eyes-

I've never bought anything from Lancome before but there mascara's seem well loved so i thought this would be a great place to start. I went for the Doll Eyes mascara as it claims to give you volumized and extended lashes for a doll-eyed effect which sounded good to me. 

Dior 5 Colours Mystic Metallics, Bonne Etoile-

This was not something i'd seen before it was a impulsive splurge as i saw it and fell in love with it. The palette is from Diors Mystic Metallics Autumn collection and it is a bit of a luxury purchase for me but i really liked the colours and thought why not treat myself i'm on holiday! 

So thats all my naughty holiday makeup purchases, i am going to do full reviews on all the products for anyone interested. Does anyone else like to treat themselves abroad or at the airport? Let me no what you like to buy.
