The L'Oreal Cherry My Cheri Eyeshadow Mega Palette And Swatches

I have to admit, and this isn't very beauty bloggery (is that even a word?) of me to say, but I have recently been quite underwhelmed by the new eyeshadow palette releases from various brands, but when I had the opportunity to try out the NEW L'Oreal Cherry My Cheri Eyeshadow Mega Palette - £14.99 as soon as I saw it, I couldn't wait to give it a try. 

The Cherry My Cheri palette was also released along side the L'Oreal Berry Much Love palette, a pink/purple toned palette which is also stunning.

Introducing new L’Oréal Paris Cherry My Cheri Eyeshadow Palette, the must-have eyeshadow palette with the hottest cherry-hued shades. 16 cherry-picked shades from rich burgundies, to warm peaches, to everyday neutrals. Everything you need to create fresh, ‘just woke up like this’ looks, to deep, smoky evening looks. 

Each eyeshadow shade is boosted with bold colour pigments, for intense colour payoff. The eyeshadow palette is made up of super-soft, ultra-creamy powder eyeshadows with a velvety texture that blends like a dream. Infused with a delicious, fruity fragrance for an eyeshadow that smells as good as it looks!

The palette is made up of 16 warm toned shades, 4 shimmer, 8 matte and 4 satin shades, all of which are stunning, I have used the palette several times over the last few weeks and I really like it. All 16 shades have a fantastic colour payoff, apply effortlessly and blend beautifully and have a brilliant wear time, the longest I have worn the shadows is 9 hours and my eye makeup looked just as nice as when I applied it.  

I can honestly say, there isn't a shade in the palette that I don't like, that is unusual for me as there would usually be at least one or two shades in a palette containing 16 shades that I didn't like or use.

I have tried out different looks and used all 16 shades at least once so I could share with you how every shade is and not just a few.

Makeup Look

Now I'm no professional and I have extremely hooded eyes and am what you might say, mature, so these aren't the best photographs and I had been rained on with my hair up so have a scarecrow vibe going on, but hopefully these photographs show how good the longevity of these shadows is, these were taken over 9 hours after application. 

I'd used the shade Over The Taupe in my crease and just above it, plus under my lower lash line, I then blended some Plum Pow in the outer corner just above my natural crease and slightly under the lash line in the outer corner. I finished with some Virgin on the lid and into the inner corner slightly and then used a brush to blend the edges. I think for over 9 hours wear time, the makeup is still looking good and hopefully gives you some idea of how good the shadows in this palette are. 

Overall Thoughts

I think it's quite safe to say, I really do like this palette, it ticks all my boxes in terms of shades and having a good mix of textures too, all the shades are stunning and I haven't experienced any fallout which is brilliant, the shadows aren't chalky or powdery, and they apply and blend beautifully. 

The palette is 17g, making each shade 1g and I think £14.99 is a brilliant price for such a good palette, especially since I have tried other much more expensive palettes recently that just weren't as good in terms of colour pay off and longevity at all. I think this is an excellent palette, 16 beautiful shades for £14.99, all stunning, wearable shades. I think this is the perfect warm toned palette and one I know I am going to get a lot of use from, this is firmly in my everyday makeup bag and isn't moving any time soon, I love it. 

It's a definite 10 out of 10 for me! 

If you would like to try the L'Oreal Cherry My Cheri Eyeshadow Mega Palette, you can find it online and in store at Superdrug where L'Oreal currently have a 3 for 2 promotion, making it a great time to try this palette, I honestly don't think you'll be disappointed.

Some new products from Brushworks

I have tried numerous products from Brushworks and so far I have liked all the products I have tried, so when I received two of their latest launches to try, one of the Brushworks HD Multi-Tasking  brushes £7.50 and the Brushworks Pink Clay Konjac Sponge £6.30 I was eager to give them both a go. 

Brushworks Pink Clay Konjac Sponge - £6.30

Out of the two products, I have to admit, I was most intrigued by the Pink Clay Konjac Sponge £6.30 I had never heard of a Konjac Sponge so I was really interested to both find out more about it, and of course to use it.  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         

The Clay Pink Konjac Sponge £6.30 comes in a plastic packaging which shows the sponge through a window on the front of the packaging, there is some information on the front of the packaging and then much more information, including usage instructions on the back. 

The Brushworks Pink Clay Konjac Sponge is made from vegetable fibre of the konnyaku plant, which makes the sponge gentle and 100% biodegradable. The Konjac sponge acts as a gentle exfoliator, removing dead skin cells in the most delicate manner.  The sponge is suited for all skin types but is ideal for sensitive skin, the sponge is a mix of red and white clay and is recommended for tired, sensitive and dehydrated skin and is perfect for skin that is exposed to the sun, helping the skin maintain it's elasticity. 

The first time I used the sponge, I used it in the evening, I wasn't wearing makeup, although you can use the sponge to remove makeup. I wet the sponge under the hot tap and squoze the excess water out and then used the sponge in circular motions, I have very dry and dehydrated skin and after using the sponge and then patting my face dry, it felt very soft and any traces of dry patches had been removed.

You can if you wish use the sponge with your cleansing product, I have also tried the sponge using a cream and gel cleanser and it worked well with both, I think the sponge would be ideal for travel, if like me you like to use a balm cleanser or gel cleanser and take 127946299 face cloths away with you. 

Brushworks HD Multitasking Brush - £6.40

I have yet to dislike a Brushworks product, and the HD Multitasking Brush is no exception, the purple and black handle and bristles look lovely and it's a great brush. It comes in a clear plastic box with all the information you need on the packaging, then on the handle is the Brushworks logo and "HD" 

The brush head is a good size and black at the base with purple tipped bristles. The brush has a domed and flattened head and is densley packed, and is perfect for finishing your makeup look and applying products. 

I love to use the brush for applying my tinted moisturiser and buffing it out to a seamless finish, I also use it to apply cream and powder blush and highlight, it is a great allround makeup brush. 

The brush has a nice slender handle and feels nice to hold, it isn't too long or short which may sound silly, but some brushes have the most ridiculous length of handle! I really like the brush, it washes really well too and hasn't shed at all despite using and washing it numerous times. 

All Brushworks makeup brushes are cruelty free and Vegan friendly too. 

Overall Thoughts

At the beginning of my post, I said I have so far liked all the Brushworks products I have tried and the Konjac Sponge and Multitasking Brush are no exception, both work really well and do exactly what it says on the tin. I am really happy with both items and they are both very affordable too, with them both being less than £7.00 each, which is brilliant. 

You can find the Multitasking Brush here for £6.40 and the Konjac Sponge here for £6.30, if you'd like to give them a try. 

Have you tried any products from Brushworks? Or the Konjac Sponge? And if so what is your favourite Brushworks makeup brush.
