Kat Von D: Tattoo Chronicles Candelabra Edition

Hey everyone! This is a review on the Kat Von D: Tattoo Chronicles Candelabra Edition eyeshadow palette. I got this as a present from my Aunt & Uncle (thanks!) & I thought it was so beautiful I had to post a review & swatches! Its sold at Sephora & retails for $49 USD, $59 CAD.

This is the front of the palette, the whole case is a black velvety material & the red is smooth metallic. The design was drawn by Kat & it opens like a book. 

 This is the first thing you see when you open it up. There are a few diary entries before you get to the makeup.

This is the makeup part of the palette. The left side is a mirror surrounded by shiny red & black designs, again by Kat. Then there are 12 eye shadows, 0.053 oz each & a full size Sin-Full Lash mascara in Puro Amor.

Overall this palette is beautiful. The designs are gorgeous & the art work is amazing. The packaging itself is very boxy & strong with a light magnet keeping it shut. The eye shadows are a little powdery but are super pigmented. The majority are shimmer or glitter, the texture's remind me of Urban Decay. I havent opened the mascara yet, I will do a separate post on that when I finish the three I already have on the go. I think this palette is really great, I wish the shadows were a little less powdery but the quality is still pretty top. 

Rating: 4/5

Such A Steal!

These are the products I got today from work, all costing $10 in total!! Such a steal, mind you they dont have their case packaging. They came in little clear plastic snap packs. These are brand new testers except the Dior duo eyeshadows & the dior blue eyeshadow. They have been disinfected for sale to the employees. All of the shadows cost me $1 each (duo's included) & the lip products were 50cents each!

 This is Dior eyeshadow #066 "trendy taupe"

 This is Dior eyeshadow #555 "flirty brown"

 This is Dior eyeshadow #275 "metallic blue"

 This is Dior eyeshadow duo #685 "bronzy look"

 This is Dior eyeshadow duo #775 "silver look"

 This is Dior lip liner #463 "candy rose"

 This is DiorKiss lipgloss #001 "lime glace"

 This is Clinique eyeshadow #601 "french vanilla"

 This is Clinique eyeshadow #308 "sparkling sage"

This is Clinique eyeshadow #401 "sugar sugar"

 This is Clinique butter shine lipstick #409 "ambrosia"

 This is Lise Watier plumpissimo lipgloss #916 "corail"

This is the Vichy Dercos Mineral Soft Shampoo. Its made with no silicone or parabens & is great for treated hair apparently. I dealt with a Vichy representative today & he gave me this product for free to try on myself. Yes, this is a full size bottle.. A review will be posted next month!
