Review | Urban Decay - Naked Heat Palette 🔥

Hello everyone!

Long time no blog! Though the days have continued to be hot and sweaty, my summer has winded down to a close. I moved into my new apartment in LA and just finished my 3rd week of graduate classes. 😊 It's been a struggle, not gonna lie...but it's definitely something I can handle. 😉 I'm thinking of writing a post regarding my move, life here at USC as a graduate student and all that soon. So until then, let's just jump right into this heated review. 🔥

The Naked Heat Palette by Urban Decay Cosmetics

I first heard of this palette through Urban Decay's Instagram (@urbandecaycosmetics). I immediately fell in love with the BEAUTIFUL warm, amber-hued shadows.  Lately, I've been loving burgundy/ terra-cotta shadows on my eyes, no matter what the season. Usually these types of colors remind me of Fall, but I've been using these types of shades pretty much everyday this summer~

Urban Decay's Naked line also has held a very special place in my heart. The original Naked palette was I believe, the first high-end product I've ever bought, and to this day, is still one of my favorite OG palettes. I did pass on the Naked 2 palette due to its strong cool-toned shadows and the Naked Smokey because I'm not a big fan of smokey looks, but decided to purchase the Naked 3 palette second-hand because of how much I loved the soft pink eyeshadows in the palette. I've been in love with the Naked palette shadow formulas and I knew I just had to have the Naked Heat palette too!

Luckily, this palette was released around the time of my birthday, so my sister gifted me this beauty! Thanks sis! 👭💜

MultiPal Store Review - Liz Lisa Floral Dress & Deary Pink Frill Boots

Hello everyone!

I hope you've all been having a wonderful week! I've been getting busier and busier as my final semester of Undergrad continues...but it's definitely not something I can't handle. ;) Today, I'm here to review a cute store I came across from Instagram, along with the two items I bought from them!

Everybody say hello to,

 

MULTIPAL STORE!

I've been following a lot more people on Instagram since 2017 started, most of them being Liz Lisa collectors/beauty and fashion bloggers. I came across a cute girl, @sugar.mew, and noticed that she was promoting a store called "MultiPal".

If you guys didn't know, I'm a HUGE fan (and wallet empty customer ;_;) of the Japanese himekaji brand, Liz Lisa. I believe if you've read my Study Abroad posts when I was living in Osaka, Japan, you've might've come across me saying how much I loved visiting the Liz Lisa stores, as well as spending all my money there. ^^'''

The only bad thing that about loving a Japanese brand is.... it's so difficult buying their products while in the United States! >< Trust me...I've bought from TokyoKawaiiLife, Liz Lisa's main Japanese seller, but because I want to expand my Liz Lisa collection and purchase older items, I've been trying to buy items from different places such as Yahoo Auction, eBay, and/or secondhand stores, thus MultiPal store came into picture!

MultiPal store is a shop located in Japan. It is run by a really sweet owner, Mari. The site offers many Japanese brands such as Liz Lisa, Ank Rouge, Axes Femme, One Spo, and more. Some of their items are pre-owned and are barely worn so their clothes' condition is almost new. They also have brand new items, stocked directly from their retailers! They update their items at a decent pace, around once or twice every 2 weeks. I've been keeping an eye out for their updates when I saw these shoes~

And I knew I had to have them. ;) So on January 11, I made the order! I also decided to buy a floral Liz Lisa dress because their Liz Lisa items have always caught my eye. ;) MultiPal shipped out my package the very next day! And I received the package, in Southern California, on January 23rd, so it took around 10 days! Incredibly fast processing and shipping~
