Mail + FOTD

I know I've been away for almost the whole week... sorry! I went to visit Granby Zoo! I can't remember the last time I visited a zoo... anyway, my mother won tickets to visit the zoo in the winter but she didin't have time to go, so I went with my boyfriend. I didn't even know the zoo was open in the winter. It was fun, but not a lot of animals were out. Anyway, as this is a beauty blog, I'm not going to talk about all of the animals, but I just wanted to show you two cute pictures my boyfriend took:

This lama kept biting the fence stick the whole time we were looking at them... xD

This gorilla was eating a broccoli and peeing at the same time... and of course, my boyfriend had to take a picture LOL.
So Tuesday I got some things in my mailbox:


The April issue of Fashion magazine (my boyfriend gave me a subscribtion as a gift as he said it was a new magazine, but I don't know, I've never heard about it before?) and a package from Groupe Marcelle!

Here's what was in the package:

The Marcelle Marketing Team asked some bloggers to try the Marcelle Minerals line as well as the Vita-Lip Plumping Gloss, and of course, I couldn't say no! So they sent me:

Marcelle Minerals Powder Blush in Natural Glow
Marcelle Minerals Powder Make-Up in Barely There
 
Marcelle Vita-Lip Plumping Gloss in Desire
Marcelle Minerals Eye Shadow in Terra

I was pretty excited to try everything out since I haven't had the chance to try a lot of Marcelle makeup. Here is a quick FOTD featuring those products (I didn't used the powder foundation as it's not really the right color for my skintone):

The eyeshadow is absolutely gorgeous! It has very little glitters in it, and it is nicely pigmented.

I have some more pictures without the lip gloss (I forgot to put it on at first LOL):


Some swatches of the lipgloss:

It's mostly sheer, but it's highly shiny (=

I also swatched the foundation on my hand:


As for the blush, I'm not sure you'll be able to see it clearly as my camera sucks -_-

It's mostly sheer, and it is a little shimmery. It's buildable to reach the desired intensity, as I tried it on my hand (but my pictures were not good, and the color didn't really show up).

  6. Awww, lamas are sooo cute! I love the zoo. I went to the one in Montreal (I think it was the Biodome actually) and it was to see the penguins since we don't have penguins at the Toronto zoo.
    Lucky you for the Marcelle products :) The eye shadow looks like a lovely colour! And I like Fashion magazine.
