Urban Decay eyeshadows are one of my favorites and the quality speaks for itself. This palette comes with six shimmery shadows, a lip-plumping gloss and a decent sized mirror. An interesting fact, you can remove the inside and use it as a makeup bag.

All eyeshadows are intense, the color payoff is incredible and they blend beautifully. This is the perfect case of "a little bit goes a long way". However, I have to admit, the top three shadows are not as buttery as the other three on the bottom part. A few of them have some fall out, while others don't.

These shadows are really versatile, you can create several different looks. My favorite shade in this palette is Mushroom, followed by Deeper. When compared to the others, these two are the most creamy/pigmented.

I'm always up for enhancing my lips and this lip plumper seems to help a little bit. I wouldn't say that it's like getting lip fillers, but it does give a slight illusion of an enhanced pout. It tingles a little bit and it has some fine glitter in it.

I use this palette very often, the color range is amazing and the pigmentation is extraordinary. Also, the lip gloss is great, that reminds me that I'm almost running out of mine.

Yesterday I was doing my makeup and I realized that I haven't reviewed this product yet. I believe that finding a good eyeshadow primer is the most effective way of getting your makeup to look more professional. It's awful when you put so much effort into the eye makeup and a few hours later your eyeshadow is creasing.

Paint Pots are a cream eyeshadow that can be used in a variety of ways, such as primer, eyeliner and on their own. In this case, Soft Ochre is incredibly versatile and could be used as a concealer, it really just depends on your skin tone. For reference, I'm a NC15 and it matches my complexion almost perfectly.

This has a matte finish and a light yellow undertone. On the container it looks really dark, however when it's blended it becomes much lighter. It has a thick consistency and you have to be really quick to blend it, or it will create some dry patches all over your eyelid.

As a primer this is incredible. It prevents creasing and it keeps your makeup in place for a long period of time. Also, it's great in case you just want to cancel out discoloration. Overall, I really love this product. I would without a doubt repurchase it.

For this tutorial I wanted to create a warm wearable halo look. This is ideal for both summer and winter.

Gel liners are the easiest way to do your eyeliner. If you're a beginner when it comes to makeup, or even if you're just not acquainted with eyeliners in general, I would highly recommend to start with cream liners.

Blacktrack is jet black and it dries opaque. It's pigmented, but not extremely pigmented, and the color is buildable. In order to do that, it's necessary to let it dry first and then proceed to apply a second layer. It's long lasting and it does not crack. However, I would advise to use a decent amount of product or you will not get a lot of color out of it.

I have been using this eyeliner nonstop for almost a year and so far it seems to be in the same condition as when I bought it. It hasn't dried out, it's very creamy and easy to work with.

From all the eyeliners I've tried, liquid liners included, this is my favorite. Even though, you kind of have to build up the color or be generous with the quantity you use, I really like the way it looks and how long it lasts. I will continue to use and repurchase it until the day I find something better.

I don't tend to gravitate towards cream products, because they get stale before powders and overall, they are messy to work with. However, since I tried both of these, I feel like giving a chance to others with a similar consistency.

These are amazing, they allow you to be creative and use them for whatever you desire. They are great eyeshadow bases, on their own and as eyeliner. Also, depending on the shade you get, I've seen people using them to highlight and contour.

Bad to the Bronze is a beautiful bronze with gold shimmer. Pomegranate Punk is a burgundy with an iridescent reflection. They're extremely pigmented and the color is buildable. Even though my eyelids are oily, they neither crease, nor start to look bad after a while.

I wouldn't worry about smudging, once it dries it does not budge. After swatching, I tried removing them from my hand using soap and water, but it would not even move a little bit. No need to panic, makeup remover will do the job.

I'm seriously in love with these eyeshadows. They're inexpensive and their quality is impeccable. I've had mine for a few months and they're still very creamy.

Which one is your favorite?

I purchased this palette a while ago and all it took me was one swatch to fall in love with it. First things first, the packaging is stunning and really creative. It comes with four shimmery shadows and a full-size mirror.

These are by far the most buttery eyeshadows I've ever swatched. They remind me of pressed pigments instead of normal shadows, because they're highly pigmented and a little bit goes a long way. They have a beautiful reflection effect and no chunks of glitter. Even blending these shadows is easy and it takes no time to achieve the desired look.

Hyperballad is a light blue, sometimes it's possible to see a bit of lilac in it. Scandinavian is one of my go to eyeshadows, it's a gorgeous antique silver. Oceansize is a bright blue with hints of silver. Last but not least, Ville is an intense purple.

I cannot say enough good things about this product. I'm so glad to have found this incredible palette. When it comes to quality, this is definitely at the top of the list!

This past month I found some incredible products. I can already say that a few of them will be featured in my "Best Of Beauty 2015", because there is no way that I can change my mind about them. To read a full review make sure to click on the name of the products.

• Urban Decay Vice3 Palette - If you watch my YouTube videos you know that in most of them I use this palette. During May I used this every time I put makeup on. I absolutely love the versatile range of colors and how I can create a neutral or a colorful look. The possibilities are endless with the Vice3.

•  NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer - I was so pleasantly surprised the first time I tried this concealer, it's honestly the best. It's brightening, full coverage and it lasts a long time. It became my all time favorite.

• Makeup Geek Insomnia Pigment - This is duochromed, it reflects both blue and brown. It has an amazing color payoff, therefore you barely need any product to create your look. Besides, it's really inexpensive for such an outstanding quality.

• MAC Taupe Lipstick - This wouldn't be a monthly favorites of mine without featuring a MAC product. I think brown lipsticks are incredibly flattering and this past month I've been even more obsessed with this trend. Taupe is matte but quite creamy, it's long lasting and incredibly pigmented.
