BASIC MOMENTS (MBM 40)

Another week, another Makeup Bag Monday. This week I tested the Zoeva Basic Moments eyeshadow palette and cheek palette. Also rotated in some NUDESTIX NUDIES, Dr. Brandt Pores No More, RMS, Make Up For Ever, Ardency Inn, and gave Armani Luminous Silk Powder Foundation one more go. Full review video is now up on my channel. Click to watch. (BTW new blog post subscribers get first dibs on Makeup Bag Monday videos now!) Missed last week’s post? Click here to read.

WHAT IS MAKEUP BAG MONDAY?

Each week I rotate my makeup bag with new product launches and makeup from my makeup collection.  Originally this series started here on sereinwu.com, I have since moved it to my YouTube Channel. I am now bringing back Makeup Bag Monday on the blog! Come back every Monday for detailed makeup reviews and find out what I have selected for the upcoming week. MBM blog post will have closeup photos and true to life swatches to help with any of your shopping needs. Think of it as a readers digest to go along with the YouTube videos.

This week my makeup bag was filled with easy wearable neutrals. The new zoeva basic moments eyeshadow palette reminded me a lot of the LORAC PRO 3 eyeshadow palette and is an almost exact dupe for around 1/2 the price. Check out the swatches below. Zoeva has really impressed me with the continued new launches in makeup. Pigmentation and quality of their powder products are consistent and well formulated, especially for the price. I also really enjoyed the Dr. Brandt Pores No More Illuminator Primer and Multi Performance Stick. The Illuminator Primer is just the right amount of radiance without feeling greasy. If you are looking for an easy to use physical spf, the Dr. Brandt Multi Performance Stick is defiently something you should check out.

Last week I focused heavily on the importance of sunscreen. You can check out the blog post here. On my channel, I did a detailed breakdown on sunscreen and SPF, which you can watch here. This week there will be a Summer Essentials video talking even more about what sunscreens I recommend along with some fun beauty products to keep on hand for summer. The Dr. Brandt Multi Performance Stick this week makes it on the list with broad spectrum protection and the seal of approval from The Skin Cancer Foundation.

    I really love the concept of MBM! The Zoeva eyeshadow palette looks absolutely stunning, but I can really justify getting another neutral eyeshadow palette. Great post!

      Thanks for coming over and checking it out! Totally feel you on the whole buying another palette. I’ve been trying to condense my collection. Makes it hard when my job is reviewing products, lol!
