Beauty on a budget ..

Hello there my lovelies,

I want to point out a fantastic product that mimics an expensive brand name product - that is extremely popular right now. You've all either seen it in Sephora, or online or in blogs and youtube tutorials. Naked2 by Urban Decay. This product sells for $60 in store and on-line, and I must admit has beautiful colours that spread and blend extremely well (I've tried a friends, and it is on my wish list - but for the time being and for budget conscious reasons, I've found a cheaper option). The cheaper option is a 15 Shade Palette from Forever 21 - and guess what? It only cost's $5.80. If you want to get similar looks (I tried one today, and it was almost identical) but don't want to spend all the money right now, or ever - this is a great option for you!

The F21 palette blends well, and has good coverage. It also has more colours than the Urban Decay palette, and is so inexpensive its fantastic. Also, if your an animal lover like me - it is animal cruelty free, something that is super important to me.
This is Naked2 - it has 12 colours, and a better brush than the F21 option, but you could buy a new brush for the F21 palette for about $10-20, so your still saving a lot of money.
 
You can see by comparing the two that they have many similar colours.
 
If your worried about finding it difficult to follow a makeup tutorial, pay attention and pause the video if you miss it - they will usually show you the colour, compare it to this palette and you'll be able to find a close match. I'm thinking about doing a tutorial for this palette anyways.
 
If you want the palette, you can check your local F21 store or go to the website: http://canada.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=F21&Category=beauty_makeup&ProductID=1031557568&VariantID 
that link leads you right to the palette.
 
If you'd like a tutorial for this palette - let me know in the comments.
 
Happy shopping !
