Benefit's World Famous Neutrals Review

Having lost my Urban Decay Naked palette so suddenly (thanks to a certain pet) I was in desperate need of a new neutral palette for an everyday make-up look. So whilst browsing through Sephora I gravitated towards Benefit and found this palette. At first I was a little iffy' since the shadows weren't exactly matte, but Benefit sold me on the lovely colours they included. Plus the packaging is always right on point with Benefit and I'm already a big fan of the products I already own. : ) x 

The palette also comes with two easy to follow tutorial one for day and night which is really helpful for beginners. 

The palette includes two cream shadows: birthday suit & my two cents 
and four long-wear powder shadows: call my buff, kiss me i'm tipsy, it's complicated, and gilt-y pleasure.

 I have to say that my two cents is probably my favorite color in the palette since you could just dab it on with a bit of mascara and call it a day.

The only downside to this palette is that call my buff & it's complicated are a bit chalky, with that being said they are still pretty much buildable and still good for highlighting. Overall the shades are highly pigmented and wearable just on their own or blended together. And the packaing allows it to be really convenient for traveling.

Pros:

1. Pigmented

2. The cream shadows don't crease

3. Go to palette for the Spring and Summer

4. Buildable

Cons:

1. No matte shades

2. A lil bit chalky 

Overall I'm really happy with Benefit's World Famous Palette, it was really worth the $35 (..not too bad since you're getting six wearble colors + benefit cream shadows are a little expensive). You guys should also check out the other two palettes they have in the collection. I hope my review helped!

Haul + UPDATE

Yesterday one of my bestfriends' and I went downtown to go shopping.. again! Woo. I think in both our cases that wasn't the best idea since we previously did the week before. BUT with it gradually getting warmer (ehh... not really) I still needed a few Spring/Summer staples to upgrade my wardrobe.

With that being said I'm only including the pictures of the things I bought yesterday or else this would be a really long post. They will be included in future posts for reference.

I just noticed I didn't get all that much, but I really do love all the things I got. After the long shopping trip Cindy and I basically walked around Eatons and got sushi for lunch. Did I mention they were having an end of the day sale? awyeah. We were still really hungry (as usual) so for desserts she introduced me to this awesome ice cream place called 'Marble Slab Creamery'. So good So good, I definitely will be going back.

Even though I did get the Topshop Jelly Sandals a little over a month ago, I thought I'd show a different alternative to the platforms. I'm still pretty much obsessed with them and can't wait to add a white or brown one to my collection soon. Hehe x

(In my opinion, I don't think these pictures do the sandals and skirt any justice so I'll be sure to include links to the items below.)

A big thank you to my shopping buddy for an awesome day and for helping me decide.. would've been in Sephora the whole day tbh. Lol.
