// First impression: Essence LE Winter? Wonderful!

Hello Internetians!

It's December.
It's winter.
Christmas is on its way and everyone needs to get some presents for their loved ones (well, not me. I bought the last present yesterday so I guess I'm well-prepared :D)
And while I was on a stroll around our local drugstore I couldn't help but notice the latest essence le called "Winter? Wonderful!"
At first I thought "Why would you call your le that... winter is only wonderful as long as you don't have to go outside and face the cold."
Yea, you can see I'm not really fond of winter haha but anyway, I'm that kind of person who always falls for a cute packaging so I couldn't resist and got three items out of all those good-looking lippies, nail varnishes, blushes, highlighters, eyeshadows and hand balms.



As I'm a sucker for eyeshadow, I just HAD to buy the "all ice on me" eyeshadow palette (3,99€)
If you know me you probably also know about my struggle of finding THE perfect, highly pigmented white eyeshadow. The lightest shade of the naked smoky palette is my fave so far although I thought that there's a low budget eyeshadow that's almost as perfect as "Thirteen" because sometimes you only need one eyeshadow and not a whole palette. But since I wanted the naked smoky so bad...you know... :D

Anyway, I should have swatched this palette before buying as the lightest shades aren't that pigmented, tho the brown shadows are really good and I think overall they're very pretty.
And yes, I am sorry for the bad exposure but you know... it's winter, it gets dark earlier so I had to adjust lighting condition a bit.
(but I wrote some softboxes on my Christmas wishlist, so fingers crossed haha :D)
If there's enough time during my Christmas holidays I'll try to review this palette and also the other two pieces. As a whole makup look maybe :)


I also bought the "winter kissed cheeks" blush and the "you melt my heart" highlighter (2,99€ each).
I was looking for a powder highlighter for a while so I put that one in my basket in no time and the blush... it just looked very pretty haha I told you I'm a person who falls for a nice packaging very easily :D
I haven't tried them yet as I made myself an advent calendar (how sad is that hahaha but my bestie sent me one the other day and I cried THANK YOU ALINA) and they're a part of it :)
