Velvet Duo Eyeshadow in Old Church Street ($43 CAD for 3g, click here to buy it)
Do you remember how much I loved the NARS x Sarah Moon Duo Eyeshadow in Indes Galantes? Well, this is another awesome color combination! This eyeshadow duo contains a matte navy blue and a warm champagne with a frosty finish.

The formula is top notch! The navy blue is nicely pigmented and applies well on the lids without looking patchy, while the frosty champagne has a buttery smooth consistency. I haven't experienced any fall outs, even with the blue shade.

I like to wear the champagne shade all over the lid, with the matte navy blue on the lower lash line. Or the blue shade all over the lid and on the bottom lash line, with a pop of frosty champagne on the inner corner!

Lip Tint in Double Decker ($33 CAD for 6ml, click here to buy it)
Formulated with vitamin E and coconut oil, this limited-edition Lip Tint softens, protects and hydrates lips.

The consistency is smooth like a lip balm, it feels great on the lips without being too sticky. The color is sheer, but I wouldn't expect an intense color payoff for a lip tint anyway. The finish is less glossy after an hour and the product leaves a subtle pink stain on the lips (like a lip stain).

This lip tint is supposed to give a hint of color while being extremely comfortable to wear. If that's what you are looking for in a lip product, you will love it!

For a just-bitten lip look, I like to apply the product on the center of my lips and blend it with my fingers!
