Hi everyone! I hope everyone’s week is going well. I thought I would do a nice, casual post today just to catch up with you all. This week I have a high point and a low point related to my makeup collection that I thought would be fun to share with you.
Makeup Win I won a giveaway! Shout out to Stacey of The Bambi Eyes for having this giveaway! I won two Colourpop eyeshadows, and these are the first Colourpop products I’ve ever gotten. Woohoo! 🙂 I received the shades Play (matte) and Desert (Satin). They are beautiful, I can’t wait to play with them!
Makeup Fail Ok, so I should have see this one coming. I kept my Tartelette palette in a spot where I kept knocking it over on accident-I think it fell a few times and each time it was fine. Until it wasn’t. I finally decided to move it to a safer spot, and the next time I grabbed it to use, black eyeshadow poured out. I guess the last time it fell did it in. The worst part was the way I opened it at an angle let most of the powder fall down to the floor, otherwise I would have been able to rescue more of it. Womp womp 😦 I pressed what I could back together with rubbing alcohol. Honestly I rarely reach for black eyeshadows and I have plenty of matte black shadows in other palettes, but it’s still sad. My poor little Tartelette! Ok I’ll stop being dramatic haha.
That’s it for today, I hope you enjoyed my makeup win and fail 🙂 What has been your biggest makeup tragedy? Broken shadows? Melted lipsticks? Broken foundation bottle? I would love to know!

Congrats on winning a giveaway! How exciting they’re Colourpops eye shadows too – looking forward to seeing them make an appearance on your blogs. 🙂
Oh booooo. Breaking makeup is the WORST! I’ve been there, we’ve all been there! 😥
Hmm no makeup fails this week but last week I was swatching for the MLBB post and had one of the lipsticks twisted up too high when swatching and it felll out of the bullet! I pushed that sucker back down and all is well. 😛

Congratulations on your win! Isn’t that the best feeling? Thankfully, I haven’t had any makeup accidents lately. My best friend just had a red lipstick melt in her designer purse. That was a BIG mess!!

It was not pretty. Thankfully, her boyfriend is a patient and genius man who completely made it look new again!

Congratulations on winning the Colorpop shadows! I am so sorry to hear about your Tartelette palette though. I rarely ever reach for black shadows either. That’s such a bummer! ❤ xo

That sucks about your Tartelette! One of my NYX HD blushes shattered on me. I fixed it with rubbing alcohol but I just spontaneously combusted on me again. I’m giving up and just going to buy a new one this weekend.

Yeah I’ve noticed it will eventually crumble up again after being fixed with rubbing alcohol. I’ve heard those nyx hd blushes are really delicate!

I dropped mine one too many times. At least they’re affordable.

And it’s a shame about the Tarte palette but luckily it wasn’t all the colours right? But I know that feeling when makeup shatters and it’s just never the same again 😦
