Review: Sleek Storm Palette

When I can't get something, it just makes me want it so much more! 

That is how I came to own the Sleek Storm Palette. 

Review: Nars Blush and Bronzer - Orgasm and Laguna Duo

NARS' Orgasm and Laguna are some of the most hyped up products on the beauty market. I joined the frenzy and bought the duo so that I could give them a go for myself.

The result? A very expensive habit.

Fake Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette

I was new to America, and eBay, when I decided to buy the Naked 2 Palette. Naive and far too trusting, I thought that I would save some money and buy it online... ah, silly past me.

When it arrived in the mail and I realized it was a fake I contacted the seller, eBay, and PayPal, got my money back, and bought a real one from Sephora.

This is what I ended up with:

Fake: eBay Listings

Scrawling through eBay, I came across some laughable fakes that I thought I would share with you...

Fake Nars Orgasm Blush

Nars is famous for its amazing range of stunning blushes. Unfortunately, the high price point, and the massive popularity of Nars Orgasm, makes it a perfect target for counterfeiters.

Before you purchase a Nars Orgasm Blush, or to determine whether your blush is an imitation, check out my list of indicators below:

• The blush should come with a plastic protective sleeve inside it.
• The blush’s protective plastic sleeve should say “NARS” and this should be exactly the same size as the “NARS” text written on the front.
• The protective sleeve should show no signs of deformation or bending.
• The new Nars Blush weight is 0.16oz or 4.5g (the box may say 4.8g).
