Urban Decay NAKED2 Debenhams Link Leaked Early!

Extremely quick post to pass on the Debenhams Urban Decay NAKED2 Palette Link before it sells out.

UPDATE: Due to the link leak, Debenhams have released the link early.

Debenhams weren't due to post the link until midnight tonight, but someone must have either been very naughty, or made a little mistake, as the link is live!

Click here to be taken to the palette.

Facebook is a buzz at the moment as Debenhams are saying they do not endorse this link, however, it does lead to their site, and contains the secure checkout function, and of course the Debenhams Beauty Card interface.

I'm not trying to scam people at all, and do not benefit from any sales or clicks.

Just trying to pass the link on, it leads to the Debenahms site, and is available to buy, so I can assure you I am not trying to lead people to spam.

The amount of technical expertise (and money) it would take to either make a whole copy of the Debenhams site, or reroute the bank details would be phenomenal.

Most likely someone has either found a code early (Debenhams would need to put the link up early in order to test its working), or someone inside Debenhams has leaked the code.

Like I said, I don't benefit from this in anyway, it's your money, and your choice.

Good luck girlies, and let me know how you get on.

Have you managed to nab Urban Decay Naked2?

FOTD: Christmas Make-Up: Leopard Print Eyes and Russian Red Lips

Hello Lovelies!

Long time no speak, sorry for my lack of posting lately, I've been snowed under (couldn't resist a winter pun) with work lately and finding the time, and the energy to post has been a bit of a mission.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, got all you wanted, and most importantly had wee break with your nearest and dearest.

For Christmas this year, I received, among other things, a gorgeous leopard print skater style dress.

 You know I love a little bit of leopard, so I thought, 

what better make-up to team it with than even more leopard!

Also, when I attended the Scottish Blogger's Meet last week, and had an extremely drunken yet hilarious time, I decided to treat myself to an item that had been on my Lust List for an age, MAC Lipstick in Russian Red. 

Everyone who has ever raved about this lipstick has been right, it really is the perfect red: blue-toned, matte and packing a hell of a punch in the colour department, 

if you only ever buy one red lipstick, get Russian Red!

It really isn't Crimbo without a dodgy Christmas Cracker Hat.

My hair is straight in this photo! 
Which is becoming something of a novelty for me, not only unusual as keeping my naturally curly hair straight in the damp is near impossible, but I'm always swayed to curly/wavy styles, GHD you styling temptress!
Desperately need my hair dyed. 

I say need, but really, only I notice it, it's just been looking a bit faded and wishy washy,

plus you can't beat new hair to feel fab about yourself.

Onto the look, after a recent make-up splurge in good ole' Superdrug, I have added to my already over-flowing make-up box/carrier bag as I'm currently visiting family, so I have quite a few new additions! 

Expect a few Reviews and Haul posts to be creeping onto your radar soon.

The method for the leopard print eyes is exactly the same as my leopard print masquerade mask tutorial, 

only on a smaller, more detailed scale, and only letting the eyeshadow reach the brows.

I know this look is very wild, though it was Crimbo! 

And if you can't go all out for Christmas then when can you?

I love Russian Red, the colour lasted all throughout my Christmas Meal, 

without so much as even leaving an imprint on my glass!

Was Santa good to you all?

And are you brave enough to sport leopard print and red lipstick?

I think there can be a very fine line between out-there and tacky, especially when you have red lipstick, false eyelashes and leopard print a la Bet Lynch, but doesn't everyone love a bit of tarty tack?

Now, my obsession with all things leopard print may be clouding my beauty blogger vision, but I think this look is kinda classy, with a wild edge, of course.

What do you think?

FOTD: Leopard Print Masquerade And I Finally Got Naked!

It's been a while, but I'm back with a bang!

I have a new job that I'm still adjusting to, but I've missed you lovely people, 

so I needed to come back with something special.

I received my Naked Palette through post the other day, 

after buying it in a BuyaPowa Bargain Bonanza for only £25. 

See here.

I realise I'm about two years too late for the Naked Palette Party, 

but I believe it really is a must have palette to own. 

I've had a look at the newly released Naked2 Palette, 

and decided I don't need to purchase it, there are too many dupes, 

and only a couple of original colours. 

Swatches and comparisons of Naked2 can be see here on Temptalia.

So what did I try first? A soft neutral eye? A smokey-brown?

Nope, I jumped straight in and decided to be a leopard.

I was heading to a Masquerade Party on Saturday, and being too stingy to fork out for a mask, 

I decided to try something a bit different and paint my own in make-up.

Of course this look isn't for everyone, but you can tone it down to just the eyelids for a night out.

As I was in such a rush, and to be honest, wasn't too sure whether it would work or not, 

I didn't take step by step pictures, but it is extremely easy to do.

Products Used:

- Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in Shade 100, Ivory

- Rimmel Match Perfection Concealer in Shade 010, Ivory

- Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation in Ecro

- Rimmel Clear Complexion Powder in 021, Transparent

Contour:

- MUA Pressed Powder in Shade 4

- L'Oreal Paris True Match Blush in Innocent Flush

- Benefit Blush Coralista

- Benefit Highbeam

Leopard Print + Eyes:

- Urban Decay Primer Potion

- HD Brows Kit in Vamp

- Urban Decay Naked Palette, Most Shades

- Unnamed Black Liquid Eyeliner

- Benefit They're Real Mascara

- No7 Lash Adapt Mascara

Lips:

- Rimmel Exaggerate Full Colour Lip Liner in 024, Red Diva

- Rimmel Kate Moss Collection, Lasting Finish Lipstick in 01

Method:

- Apply your base, (foundation, concealer, powder), as normal.

- Put eye primer on any areas you would like to to paint.

- Apply a gold-toned brown to the area you want to add your spots to.

- Take an array of darker browns from the palette and apply in small strokes. I used a small concealer brush to apply, sweep the tip of the brush over my face in short motions.

- Using the same method, apply the golden colours to your face.

- Line your eyes with black liquid eyeliner, in a cat-like flick.

- Now, onto lining your leopard marks, go round any spots you've made in a controlled yet messy looking fashion. Aim for an unorganised, disjointed circle.

- Curl your lashes, and coats with lashings of mascara.

- Finish with a bold red lip, line your lips with red lip liner and fill. Then go over with red lipstick, straight from the bullet. The new Rimmel Kate Moss Collection Lipstick in 01 is my new favourite red, it's matte, and packs a hell of a punch.

I love this look, it's not very often you get a chance to go all out and embrace your wild side!

It's out-there, but it's also very classy and sexy, with a hint of danger.

Will you be daring enough to try this look?

And, do you think the Naked2 Palette is worth buying?

Urban Decay Naked Pallette for £25 Today Only

Extremely quick post to say BuyaPowa have the Urban Decay Naked Palette for sale now!

(Image from Google)

My last BuyaPowa post on the OPI Muppettes Set for only £7 went down really well, 

so I thought you might be interested in this Beauty of an offer, d'ya geddit? Beauty? No, oh I give up.

The Urban Decay Naked Palette is quite possibly the most hyped product in the Bloggisphere,

everyone and their Gran has been blogging about the Palette, and I haven't managed to pick one up yet, 

(the £35 price tag is too many pennies for a poor student).

Until now, that is as BuyaPowa's lowest price is only £25!

To purchase the Naked Pallette click here, 

and if you're feeling particularly lovely you can even click that I, Maxine Meighan, referred you.

The Naked Palette contains:

- 12 Gorgeous Neutral Eyeshadows, (from light champagnes, to shimmering gunmetal greys, glitters to mattes)

- 1 Professional Quality Shadow Brush

- 1 Mini Urban Decay Primer Potion

- All presented in a Chocolate Velvet Casing

(Image from Google)

Swatches can be found here on Temptalia,

(Please note this edition is from last year, the eyeliners have been replaced with the shadow brush, 

though all eyeshadows remain unchanged).

BuyaPowa is a co-buying site, basically the more people who buy, 

the cheaper the price everyone pays for the final product! 

The lowest price for this set is £25 (with only £2.50 delivery), and seeing as the Urban Decay Naked Palette

normally retails at £35, then you are saving of a tenner, £10!

I bought my Benefit They're Real Mascara from BuyaPowa 

(for only £12, with delivery I might add)

 and I could not fault them one bit! 

And, as you can see from my last BuyaPowa post, 

I also treated myself to the OPI Muppettes set for only £7 (with £1 delivery).

Anyway, enough babbling, as I type there are only 39 left, and I can guarantee they will run out in a couple of hours at most. Just click here LINK if you want to buy, you can sign in through Facebook too, so it only takes a minute.

Let me know if you manage to get your hands on the Urban Decay Naked Palette.
