Lorac Refined Romance

Hello and happy makeup monday! I’ve missed you. I went to the Nordstrom sale a few weeks ago and came across Lorac’s Refined Romance Eye/Cheek Palette. I love it and am so obsessed with it. I’ve been using it everyday since I got it! My favorite out of the whole palette is the Gold Shimmer eye shadow {i know surprise, surprise}.  The gold shimmer is so  perfect for that summer bronze glow.  I also love the shimmer highlighters – I use it for my upper cheeks and nose to give that subtle highlight. It’s the best and color palette is truly romantic. The best part is that this palette is retails for $18. That is amazing for a palette. GO GET IT NOW!  Here is a glimpse of the colors….

It’s really true – I’ve tried Champagne Pop and I ABSOLUTELY Love it. A month ago, I got a beauty alert about this special palette. I ordered it immediately and I’m glad I did because it sold out. I’ve been using the palette for a couple of weeks and I love the shimmer and love the colors. I was so eager to use it that I swiped my brushes across the colors before taking photographs.  This palette gives you all the glow you could want—all in one place.  Here is a glimpse….
