Justfab LUXE Reba (Taupe)

Hi guys! Hope you have having a great weekend!! Here is a review if the Luxe Reba boot in taupe from Justfab USAJustfab CA! Let me just say one this about this boot, IT IS SOOOOO COMFORTABLE!!! 


So the boot is a faux suede with cutout detailing at the top of the leg opening. The faux suede is actually quite nice and supple and soft to the touch! The toe part is an almond shape. It has a zipper down the side and a small gore at the top/back for comfort. (Though the calf size is HUGE so I don't know if that is even nessessary). The boot is what I call a flat boot but it does actually have a tiny heel at the back.

Here are the stock photos that sold me on this boot:
Reba is also available in black:



So the fit on this boot is actually quite big. The shoe size itself was large and like I said before the leg and calf area is HUGE. Anyone with musclular calves will love this boot!
Also, I would say order a half of a size down unless you have wider feet or longer toes and then I would say stick to your true size. The comfort of this boot though is just amazing! Not sure what they are doing differently in this sole compared to other boots I've purchased lately but these feel great! I could wear these all day walking everywhere! These are the boots you want to grab when you have lots of running around to do for sure!! 


On the site it says, " A little bit country and a little but rock and roll"! I'm not too sure I get the rock and roll of this boot but I definitely see the country. In my eyes it is more of a boho/country hybrid boot. It looks great with leggings but also I would say a flouncy dress as well. It is very feminine with the cutout details! 

The quality was super impressive for this boot and Justfab in general. This boot is from the Luxe line so you are actually paying 5$ more than a regular $39.95 item but in my opinion this boot is actually worth the extra $5! I would go get yours before she sells out!

BH Cosmetics Take Me To Brazil Palette


Hiiii! Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a wonderful day so far! I figured I would continue on with the palette reviews. This is a mini review and swatches of the Take Me to Brazil Palette from BH Cosmetics. Here it is with 30 shadows: some matte, some shimmer, some satin.

Here are the stock photos of the palette: 

This is what it says on BH Cosmetics : "Wild and exotic colors await you inside the Take me to Brazil, 30 Color Eyeshadow Palette! This fantastic collection of shimmer, satin and matte eyeshadows is inspired by the outrageous Brazilian parade, Carnival! Get ready to Samba with this highly pigmented rainbow of colors in reds, pinks, oranges, yellows, greens, blues, and purples. Featuring 2 extra-large bonus eyeshadows in iridescent white and matte black that will help you add glow and mystery to your finished look!"

So I love colour and I was exited for the yellows, reds and oranges that you don't often see in palettes but I wasn't really expecting a lot when it came to quality. Here are the swatches: 

With Flash: (top to bottom left to right on the palette = top to bottom on my hand)


And Without Flash: (top to bottom left to right on the palette = top to bottom on my hand)


I wish that Bh gave names to all their colours because I do like some of them a lot and I wish I could just name them all so you guys know. Some of the matte shades were kind of chalky and took a couple swipes to even get any kind of colour payoff, others were super pigmented and creamy. Really about 50% of the shadows I liked and will for sure use, and about 50% I really didn't like and probably won't ever use. I didn't use these wet as I don't think that will change a whole lot.  That "iridescent white" I was super excited for but it isn't very pigmented at all so I was kind of disappointed. But for what it costs and the amount of shadows, even if you only count the better quality ones that you will use, it is worth it. 


The palette is priced at $19.95 but it is often on sale. Right now it is on sale for $6.95!! Yep $6.95 I couldn't believe it when I checked the price! Definitely worth $7 for sure! It's also rated 4.8 stars out of 5 on their website so check it out for yourself! Shop this palette here=> BH Cosmetics! Happy shopping! Xx

Urban Decay Ammo Palette



Hiiiii! Hope your weekend was wonderful!!
Okay so I tried the Urban Decay Ammo palette before the revamp and found the shadows to be really sparkly and having really bad fallout, so when I heard they completely re formulated their eyeshadows and released the palette again, I knew I had to get my hands on it! 

The new packaging looks like this and includes a mini original shadow primer potion and a mini shadow brush (great for packing)! I love this packaging more than the original!

As always I wait until I have used the palette multiple times before I publish a review. I have to say that I am absolutely in love with this palette!! I am really happy I tried the revamp!! The shadows barely have any fallout at all and the shadow formula seems to be less gritty, more smooth (even with so much shimmer and sparkles!) and buttery and great pigmentation!! 

Here is the palette without flash:

And the palette with flash ( you can really see the shimmer! ❤️💖)

It is sooo so hard to pick favourites with this palette because I find myself using every single shade!! Here are the swatches!

Without flash from left to right, top to bottom on the palette and left to right on my arm:

(Smog, Mildew, Oil Slick, Last Call, Chopper, Maui Wowie, Shattered, Polyester Bridge, Grifter and Sin)

With flash from left to right, top to bottom on the palette and left to right on my arm:

(Smog, Mildew, Oil Slick, Last Call, Chopper, Maui Wowie, Shattered, Polyester Bridge, Grifter and Sin)

When I do swatches I do one swipe! Just look at the colour payoff and the shimmer in these colours! Urban Decay rarely let's me down so I am super happy they decided to revamp this palette! here are a couple looks I did with this palette: 








Overall this palette is sooooo worth the $40 CAD I paid at Sephora!! (Sephora Urban Decay Palette

Here is what the Sephora site says about the palette: 

"What it is:
An eye shadow set featuring ten of Urban Decay’s bestselling shades—from neutral to vivid to all-out smoky. 

What it does:
A relaunch of one of Urban Decay’s most iconic palettes ever, the Ammo Palette comes fully loaded. It combines Urban Decay’s longest-lasting shadow formula ever with its ten all-time bestselling shades—shades no makeup junkie should be without. Pair up the vertically color-coordinated duos or channel your inner artist to create multihued looks that are all your own.

The palette case features a metallic purple skull on the front, intricately woven out of animals, flowers, pistols, swords, and other Urban Decay elements. Inside, skulls, snakes, and flowers collide to create a dreamy backdrop for the mesmerizing array of shadows. Instead of the old sponge-tip applicator, a shadow brush has been added along with a travel-size Eyeshadow Primer Potion to keep your look vibrant and crease-free all day and night. 

This set contains:
- 10 x 0.03 oz Eyeshadow in Smog (deep coppery bronze), Mildew (mossy green shimmer with gold shift), Oil Slick (matte black with silver micro-glitter), Last Call (metallic sugar plum), Chopper (copper shimmer with silver micro-glitter), Maui Wowie (metallic golden beige with silver glitter), Shattered (turquoise shimmer with gold shift), Polyester Bride (white snow shimmer with silver micro-glitter), Grifter (sheer lavender shimmer with silver micro-glitter), Sin (champagne shimmer)
- 0.13 oz Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Original
- Mini Shadow Brush

Upon going to double check my links I had saved for the palette on Sephora's website, I saw that the new Ammo Palette is actually ON SALE!!!! 50% off!!!!!! Yes you heard right!!! The Ammo Palette is on sale for $20 CAD!! It was a steal at $40 but I would hurry and buy one for yourself, your mother, your sister, your sister in law!! At $20 you really can't go wrong!!  =>Sephora Urban Decay Palette! Happy Shopping!! Xx

Justfab Gweneth


Hi guys! It's been a while since I have posted on here and for that I am so sorry! I am going to attempt to catch up on some reviews and try to be a bit more regular!!!

This is Gweneth from Justfab USAJustfab CA! (I am also wearing the metallic coated denim in silver from Justfab as well) Gweneth is probably one of my fave shoes to date! They are almond toe pumps with platforms and a high heel. They are champagne shimmer with a black lace overlay and a satin bow on the ankle strap! 😍😍❤️❤️

These are just so gorgeous! How can you not like them?? They fit true to size and are extremely comfortable!! If you have wider feet I would recommend a half of a size up but if not then I would stick with your true size! Here are some angles of this beaut! 





Okay so right now Justfab USAJustfab CA is having a 2 for 49.95 sale so go check them out!! Maybe you can snag Gweneth in your size! Happy shopping! Xx
