Essence Sale - What I Got - Part Two

I went back for more essence goodies (LINK to my first essence post), I've been bad, LOL. Because I fell in love with the first two pigments I got (numbers 13 and 20), I got a lot more - and I'm obsessed - they're fun to play with, and they're just breathtakingly beautiful. The price of all items on sale is 9.99kn, and you can get them at DM in Croatia (later probably at Kozmo and Muller as well). A quick description of individual pigment shades:

01 studio 54 - Tiny glitter particles, doesn't blend into the skin, more difficult to apply than the others
02 smell the caramel - a gorgeous caramel-gold shade.
08 cop & copper - copper shade, easy application
06 WOW it's orange - coral-pink-orange. The name is misleading, it's a very pastel-like shade.
13 paparedzzi - not a fierce red, more of a pink-red, a mild red shade, still gorgeous.
03 box of chocolate - dark brown with sparkle
20 black sparrow - black with silver/blue undercolor

I applied all the pigments using this product:

Essence COLOUR ARTs Eye Base - I'm loving it, it's really great to use with pigments. I think this might become my new favorite base...how the hell did I not notice it until now? I might buy one more, I'm that obsessed with it.

I also got these false lashes - I went to my local DM the first day of sale, and I thought they were sold out, but when I went back a week later, they found they had more lashes in their storage and they put them out. I'm happy I got them, since I really wanted to try them out, but aaaargh I'm so angry they didn't put all the items out at once. Sloppy. Anyways, I'm so excited about these, I'm going to have so much fun with them!

And I got Stay With Me longlasting lipglosss in 02 My Favorite Milkshake. The shade is gorgeous (very peachy), but it's very watery. Because I didn't wear lipgloss for a while it will take me some time to get used to the feeling. But I think it's a good product. The shade really is a great match for my light skin tone.

CATRICE Products I Am Waiting For

Hey everyone! Here's a quick post about some Catrice products that will be coming to the stores in the near future. I can't wait for them to get here because they're pretty awesome. Do you keep track of the products that will arrive, or do you like to be surprised in the store? Anyways, here is a quick look at some of the new products that caught my eye! ;)

Arts Collection

These three Eye and Face Palettes are just breathtaking. And Catrice has some great eyeshadows so I think these are a safe buy as far as quality goes. What really gets me are the beautifully designed boxes - stunning! My favorite is the one with the pink design. 

Click HERE to check out the entire collection. I'm not into the nail polishes from this collection.

Rocking Royals

These Velvet Metal Eyeshadows are so amazing! I love these two colors the most (the green and the blue that will also be available are just not for me). If I miss them I'll be so sad :( My favorite is Finally Crowned - it's the gold one.

I already have velvet nail powder, but not in this color hehe. This red is perfect for the approaching holiday season. And the bottle is so cute! Catrice really puts additional effort in the packaging.

Click HERE to check out all the products from this collection. Again, none of the nail polishes appeal to me.

Feathers & Pearls

OMG I don't even care if this palette doesn't swatch well or is not well pigmented. I am getting this because it's just so beautiful. There better not be only one left when I find it in store, I might poke someone's eye out trying to grab one of these!!! LOL And I can use all these colors! It's called Hollywood's Golden Age.

I think these false lashes are beautifully designed and I might wear them for New Year's Eve.

This Lipstick shade is called Josephine's Joy, and I'm interested in it because it says it has a semi-matte finish. Gorgeous color.

These Nail Sequins will be amazing for lots of looks, and will look great for New Year's Eve. I prefer the black ones. Again, adorable packaging. 

Click HERE for all the products, there are many more in this collection.

Are you excited about these? I am! Catrice will get me in trouble if they keep selling awesome products in adorable packaging. The sad part is, in the store where I buy these, they do not restock Limited Edition Collections. So if I'm a few days late, I might miss them. :( Hopefully that won't happen. You girls will let me know when these get to stores, right? ;)
