Review: pixi Early Bird Palette

 Helloooo! (Yes, imagine this an impression of Marcus Butler hihi)

It's already October and autumn has begun... at least all the collections are out. Anyways, it's the perfect season to start with make-up, because it won't be too hot and humid to melt away all the make-up. When starting out, I didn't know anything about consistency, pigmentation or how to pair up colors. So to experiment with it and to begin the process of building knowledge and experience, I don't recommend to invest in high-end at first. If you already know a lot about cosmetics and what you want in it, it's fine, but if you want to play around, it's kinda expensive.
So at first I recommend bigger palettes, such as this one. The 88 Shimmer Palettes are popular as well, but I find them to be overwhelming. This one's compact, includes 16 color eyeshadows, 4 base eyeshadows, 3 blushers, 2 bronzers and 1 highlighter. There are enough shades for nearly all complexions and they're pretty neutral, so definitly fool proof.

K-Wave Wednesday #2

Hey guys!

It's K-Wave Wednesday again! :) This month we just wanted to share our most recent discoveries in K-Pop world, followed by some upcoming new dramas we might want to watch and we also have some drama recommendations and as always our current favorite song.

Here's the chronological order of everything we mentioned:

SPICA - Tonight (Comparison: Ulala Session, Rainbow)
Busker Busker - In The Beginning, A Thing Called Love (Comparison: Tyler Ward)
Cover of  "I do" by 15& (originally by Bi/Rain)
Jung Joon Young - Spotless Mind (Compared to F.T. Island)
Drama: Heirs (Complete Name: The One Who Wants To Wear The Crown, Bear The Crown)
Drama: Boys Before Flowers Remake: Between Boys & Friends 
Noona - Crush: "Noona" means "Older Sister"(for guys)  in korean and can be used for biological older sisters, or girls that are older than you and you're close with in general. So a Noona Crush or Noona Complex means that the love line is between a girl and a boy who's younger than her. (Examples mentioned: Flower Boy Ramyun Shop, I Hear Your Voice and Who Are You) 
Drama: Medical Top Team (Especially: SHINee's Minho)
Drama: Reply, 1994
Drama: Reply, 1997 (Especially: Eunji) 
Drama: Flower Boy Ramyun Shop
EXO - Baby, Don't Cry
SHINee - Better Off 

We hope you enjoy it! Until next time,
Lily & Jasmine
