Some mail love

Santa was a bit late this year. Today my mail box was exploding: I received a giveaway prize from Red Leaf I won on Shrimp Salad Circus, my long awaited decoden purchase from Shangai, a letter from an American penpal and a Christmas present from my best friend!

Here's what I got from Red Leaf. I was supposed to get this long time ago, but I guess it got stuck at the custom-house. It's a handmade face moisturizing lotion with oatmeal, milk and honey! It has a super nice smell and I can't wait to try it. The small bottle is a sample of the same product.

And this is my decoden order! I'm still waiting for another one before I start my project though, I need more rhinestones. I got 300 pearlized peachy rhinestones 2mm wide. I don't know what I was thinking when I bought these, because I thought they were bigger! They are so tiny instead. I was probably attracted by their colour. I bought 6 rose cabochons and a mix of 100 pearlized cabochons as well. I got everything on Etsy for a very low price, and I think that's why they took so long to get to me (almost 2 months!)

What's the best nude palette?

So, I was doing some research because I definitely need a nude palette, but if I couldn't choose earlier, now I have simply no clue.. I want them all!

What palette do you think is the best?

Includes 10 shades and a Smudge Stick shade in a matte brown.

Includes 32 shades.

Includes 20 eyeshadows and 10 lip colors.

Includes 12 shades.
Includes 12 eyeshadows.


Urban Decay Naked palette 2 - $50
Includes 12 eyeshadows.

So. I really can't choose. Personally I'd go for the Naked palette - hundreds of people have told me this is the best nude palette, but it's a bit too pricey for me. The NYX Nude on Nude looks great aswell, but I don't like the fact that it includes lip tints - I wouldn't use them, so it'd be a waste of money! The Stila In The Light looks gorgeous too. The Sleek Au Naturel and the ELF Pro Mini Eyeshadows are little nice palettes, but maybe their quality is a bit lower than the others. 

Your advice would be so appreciated! Let me know what you think (:
