Smashbox Double Exposure Palette + Smashbox lipsticks

Double Exposure Palette
I just got
this wonderful 'Double Exposure' new palette by Smashbox, which includes 14
shades of lovely colours. The palette contains shimmer, satin & matte
shades that you can use as they are or get them slightly wet for deeper
pigmentation (I mixed them with eye gel and they looked amazing). The palette
comes with a lovely double-ended brush that you can easily use to apply the
shades – the quality of the brush is really good.
I was
worried about sing colours on my face as I usually go from smoky or neutral
palettes but the colours come out quite
understated so I wouldn’t recommend it if you are going for a strong or bold
colour look.
The palette
is quite versatile so you can mix and match various colours to for day/night
makeup. In addition to all the colours, the palette contains highlight colour
as well as crease and depth enhancing shades.
Here's what
some of these look like dry vs. wet...

Texture is
smooth when wet but if you use them dry they tend to be quite dusty unless you
use a primer underneath.
I love this
palette and it is really worth buying. Just to add, my gorgeous salesgirl at
the Boots Kingston counter
was super helpful in helping me select this and showing me how to use the
palette!
Price £37
Available at

Smashbox lipsticks
So in
addition to the palette, I bought the Smashbox Primrose lipstick and they have
an offer at Boots where you got two lipsticks free with two Smashbox products! All
the lipstick shades are gorgeous and give you a natural warm colour to your
lips.
ALL IN ALL SMASHBOX IS A WINNER FOR ME!
