Hey Dolls,
I had the pleasure of visiting the L'Oréal HQ here in Dublin today and I was gifted with 5 new beautiful lippies that are launching tomorrow, the 15th with Urban Decay. UD & Ruby Rose have joined forces to collaborate and bring out a whopping 100 new lipstick shades!!!!
These are the 5 shades I have and they are so stunning. I swatched them on my snapchat and they're soooo pigmented. This range of lipsticks have 6 beautifully different finishes, Mega Matte, Comfort Matte, Cream, Metallized, Sheer & Sheer Shimmer.
This one in shade Big Bang is my favourite. It is so different from any Lipstick I own. I need to add a few more shades to my collection I think. They retail for €19.50 and are available from Debenhams & House of Fraser from June 15th.
Happy Shopping.
Love Grace xox
Hey Dolls,
I wanted to share with you all the amazing time I had at the #UDGetaway. A small group of bloggers where invited to have an over night stay for the launch of Urban Decay's summer collection. It was so much fun and in the cutest little estate in Tankardstown house. I had a little cottage all to myself and it was so gorgeous. I could have stayed there for a week.
When I arrived I chilled out in my cottage until Lauren got there, then we headed to the house to chill, drink tea and talk blog stuff. At 7pm we all met up together to take a look at the new collection, it was stunning. I always love what Urban Decay release, they have some of my favourite products.
We then headed to the Brabazon restaurant for an amazing 7 course meal. I was stuffed and headed to head at midnight while some of the others stayed up later to enjoy some drinks, if only I could haha.

Hi my lovelies,
A highly requested swatch review coming your way.
I received this beautiful palette as a Christmas present and the colours blew me away.
I knew when I first opened it I had to swatch it for you all. I know even before I try it I will be obsessed with it for the coming months.
So here it is and how gorgeous does it look.
My first impression of this palette was that it looked amazing but also the package it came in was super cute and also the palette itself was very sturdy. It also came with a huge mirror and a double sided makeup brush. I love that Urban Decay always have these brushes with their palettes as they are always top quality.
This palette comes with comes with a whopping 20 beautiful shades ranging from matte to shimmer to glitter. Each shadow is unique to the next and all brand new shades to Urban Decay.
The first 4 shades in this palette are on the neutral end of the scales. The first shade ''Truth'' is a beautiful matte cream colour that would be perfect as a brow bone highlight or for a wash of colour all over the lid.
The next shade ''Undone'' is a gorgeous neutral with an undertone of glitter. This colour would be perfect for all over the lid to open up the eyes.
''Downfall'' is a mid toned brown, perfect as a transition colour and for contouring the crease of the eye.
"DFT" is a deeper brown with a lot more glitter and would be gorgeous blended into the crease to darken it up.
Moving away from neutral we have ''Dragon'' which is a beautiful forest green perfect for any St. Patricks day look.
"Freeze" is a gorgeous shimmery aqua colour with lots of fine glitter.
''Heroine'' is one of my favourite shades in this palette and is a beautiful navy shade.
The final of these four is "Brokedown" It is a stunning bronzed colour and I think this would be beautiful washed all over the lid and blended out.
Next is "Vanity" a beautiful plum shade perfect for a deep gothic look that I love so much.
"Lucky is a gorgeous goldeny orange colour and one that I have never seen before. I am excited to try this one.
"Reign" is a chocolate brown that looks almost like silk and would be gorgeous deep in the over V of the eye.
"Bobby Dazzle" is a frosty white with glitter and I think it would be perfect in the inner tear duct to make your eyes pop.
These next four I think are my favourite shade of the palette.
Although I am not a huge pink fan I think "Alien" would be pretty on the lid.
"Alchemy" is an absolutely stunning burgundy shade. It looks so rich and would create a beautiful autumnal look.
"Bondage" is again a plum colour but is deeper and richer.
"Sonic" is a stunning terracotta colour and I cant wait to try it.
The last 4 shade are more cool toned and ''Last Sin" is a gorgeous champagne shade.
''Angel'' is a beautiful rich taupe shade that would be fab all over the lid and darkened up with "Defy" which is a deep dark brown.
The last shade ''Revolver" is this stunning greeny brown shade and would be beautiful on someone with green eyes.
I have to say I am in love with this palette and Urban Decay seem to get better and better with every eyeshadow palette they come out with.
I am a huge fan of this vice palette and would recommend you pick it up for yourself if you are a makeup lover like me
Love

Hey All,
I finally got my hands on the Naked 3 palette, well my boyfriend surprised me with it this week :)
I know I know you are probably thinking to yourself why haven't I had it before now. Well it was sold out of everywhere during Christmas and to be completely honest I've been broken pretty much since then lol.
So today's post is going to be a really quick review and first impressions post on this palette
I am a huge Urban Decay fan, I think I have six of their palettes in total and every time I purchase a new one I love it even more than the last. It is safe to say that the Naked 3 is now my new favourite palette.
It offers 12 completely new shade and tones that are not that easy to come by. The tones of this palette are rose gold and that colour is huge at the moment in the fashion and beauty world.
I hear from people that they find the Naked palettes boring and that the all look the same but for me each one is different and unique. As a makeup artist I can see the different tones and shades in an eyeshadow that not everyone can see.
This is the first Naked palette Urban decay haven't repeated any shades and I love that about it.
Their eyeshadows in general are creamy and extremely pigmented but be careful their does tend to be some glitter fall out.
The variety of shade in this palette is perfect for an everyday look and I can easily add colours and darken up a look for a night time glam look.
That is exactly what I have done for you all in my latest makeup tutorial on youtube.
