Shiro Cosmetics haul!

First make up haul/review!
Today I am going to present to you the incredible online cosmetics company Shiro Cosmetics!
Shiro Cosmetics specialises in making "nerdy" make up with lots of cool nerdy/internety references.
I have mostly eye shadows from the site (and a lipgloss which I'll get to later).
When you order eye shadows you can choose what size you want it to be in (apart from colour of the month which comes in full size).
The sizes are:
Sample size which comes in little bags (1/8 tsp):

Mini jar (1.0 grams):

Full size jars (2.0 grams):


All the eye shadows come in loose powders and are very pigmented.
Now on to my favourites:
For every day looks I like to wear either the colour Doge (colour of the month November) or Baker's Boy (from the tributes collection-hunger games) all over the lid with a plain black eyeliner.
Doge is the one I use really every day it's shimmery but not too sparkly. If i want to add some sparkles then I'll replace it with Baker's Boy which I also use as a base colour for most eye make ups I do. 
 Top one is baker's Boy bottom one is Doge:

For a pop of colour I like to use either Chinchillin' or Plausible Walrus and blend them into the base over the lid colour I'm wearing.
Chinchillin' is a beautiful grey and lilac colour and Plausible Walrus is a pretty pink, both pretty shimmery.


These two were colours of the month and unfortunately are no longer available on the website.
Lastly in the eye shadow department are the ones I use for nighttime looks.
These ones are Rebellion (from the tributes-hunger games collection), Lingered in Twilight (from the hobbit collection) and Nic Cage Raking Leaves on a Brisk October Afternoon (colour of the month October 2013).
I like to use these ones in my crease and blend them in a bit. 
Rebellion is a beautiful dark blue colour, almost black, Lingered in Twilight is an incredible shimmery green I also like to use it as a thin line over a green eyeliner. Nic Cage is a very sparkly brown.
Get Rebellion HERE get Lingered in Twilight HERE get Nic Cage Raking Leaves on a Brisk October Afternoon HERE 
The last thing I want to show you is the amazing custom lipgloss they offer. Basically you choose an eyeshadow and they blend it into lipgloss to create your very own unique lipgloss!
I used the colour Unforgettable from the tributes-hunger games collection to create this gorgeous lipgloss:

You can get you very own costum made igloos HERE
All orders come with free eyeshadow samples (most of my sample size eyeshadows were free)+free CANDY!

Lost Cat-Book review

First book review yay!
This review is about the beautiful and brilliant book Lost Cat.

This book tells the story of the author of how she lost her cat and her quest to discover what exactly happened after he returned.
It is honestly one of the best books I've read in a while it is witty, emotional, moving. 
If you've ever owned a cat or even a different pet then you can relate to this book.
Through her words Caroline Paul tells a thrilling story about love and loss.
It'll make you cry it'll make you laugh it'll make you go "awwwww" multiple times.
The books features adorable illustrations made by the author's girlfriend Wendy MacNaughton who also features as a leading character in the book. 
These lovely illustration add to the reader's connection to the story and make it a whole lot of fun to read.
I rate this book 4/5 stars.
