Lime Crime Venus The Grunge Palette

Besides The Birth of Venus being one of my favorite paintings, I love me some warm red and brown eyeshadow (and 90's grunge which also inspired this beauty)! When I first saw the swatches of this palette on Instagram I was instantly hooked. Each color is highly pigmented to perfection. They are butter and I was not disappointed at all.

This palette includes 8 shadows which include a fabulous range from golden ivory to a burgundy matte. She even threw in a matte taupe that is stunning and the perfect blending shade for this collection of colors. You have everything you need in one spot. This is a variety that will be great year round.

It retails for $42 and can be found on Lime Crime's website here.

Here is the description of the shadows from their website:

VENUS: The color of bruised fruit (velvet matte)
SHELL: Opalescent shell-pink (glow)
AURA: Golden ivory (glow)
CREATION: Rust brown (matte)
ICON: Dirt brown (matte)
REBIRTH: The color of an over-ripe nectarine (matte)
DIVINE: Dusty stone (matte)
MUSE: Deep burgundy red (matte)

Mani Monday!

This week's Mani Monday is a rich one. Essie's new nail lacquer in "Partner in Crime" is the perfect vampy Fall polish. It's a deep rich chocolate brown with a high shine finish.

I love how shiny it is, resembling patent leather. I used my Sephora Formula X nail cleanser, base coat, and top coat. So far it's been a week without any chipping. This is the perfect shade if you want to add a touch of the trending 90's grunge look to your everyday beauty routine. Find it here. Find the Sephora Formula X system here.

Sneak Peak! Lime Crime - Venus Palette

If you are like me and love A. Lime Crime, B. the 90's, and C. the Birth of Venus painting then this palette is so going to make you so excited!

Lime Crime is releasing a 90's grunge inspired palette called Venus. As of right now it is set to launch the end of October (think the last week or so), that's all I know. But don't get worried because it is going to be a permanent product. YES!

I love all the warm reds and browns she's included here. It looks like it will be a great accessory for blue eyes.

Trending: 90's Lips

The 90's have been making their way back into the fashion scene for probably about a year now. One of my favorite things about the 90's was the makeup! I love brown lipstick! The smokey coffee house look is so in, especially for Fall. Check out these two products from Younique that can help you rock that look like no other!

Pouty is a rosy nude with a subtle sheen but dries to a matte budge proof finish. When they say waterproof, they aren't kidding! I love it on its own but it also makes the perfect base for the Lucatrive Glosses.

Lucky is a grey tinged brown gloss. Ultra glossy but not sticky, this gloss is the perfect neutral finish to your look. It can be built up to a deeper brown or worn with a lip balm for a lighter look.

Younique Lucrative Lip Gloss - Lucky
