Swatch Sunday: Ami Hearts Beauty x Amy Loves Makeup – Alma

Ami Hearts Beauty x Amy Loves Makeup - Alma

Wow! You know what’s exciting? When you get to see a YouTuber that you watch actually collaborate with a brand and release an eyeshadow palette! And even more exciting – the creator asked if she could send me the palette too!

So say hello to the Alma palette! Amy Loves Makeup (see her YouTube channel here) teamed up with indie makeup brand Ami Hearts Beauty to release this 15 pan palette… that I was going to say is currently available, but the original launch has sold out, so it’s currently up for pre-order of the second batch!

Swatch Sunday: Too Faced Hot Buttered Rum

Too Faced Hot Buttered Rum

These mini palettes by Too Faced have a real tendency to speak to me. I just love the tiny compact packaging, and generally the themes are right up my alley too.

Although I’ve not been overly enamored by Too Faced‘s holiday offerings this year, the one item I was definitely into was this Hot Buttered Rum palette. It’s rare that I find a neutral palette interesting, but this one seemed a bit more fun than most. I like that there’s a deep rusty, warm shade as well as a deep mustard – those two really sold the palette for me.

The palette is scented… and I’m sure it’s supposed to smell like hot buttered rum, but I mostly just get a faint sweet and gingery scent off of it.
