Kat von D Tattoo Chronicles! (pic heavy)

‘Ello everyone!

I’m so excited to share this product with you today! This particular item is one I have wanted to purchase for a long time now. I was shopping with my sister Saturday morning and we walked in to Sephora (of course). We wandered around for a little while, until I saw it, marked down from $55, to $25. I flipped out! I couldn’t pass up something so amazing! Especially since it has been on my wishlist FOREVER lol. And thanks to my amazing sister, Amber, for buying it for me!

My new palette: Kat Von D Tattoo Chronicles vol.1.


Im sorry if I post tons of pictures, I just want you all to be able to see how awesome this palette is! Im not a big fan of Kat von D or anything, although I think she is a brilliant artist, but she has a certain style that I really enjoy.



The palette looks like an old book; red with gold detail and writing, inside there are 2 pages, before you get to the makeup, one page tells where her passion for makeup came from (her mom), and the other is a thank you to people that have inspired her to create the palette. Opposite each page is a drawing, both are beautifully illustrated females. I love art, I love the theme of this palette, and I love all of the things inside also! It’s absolutely gorgeous.





Onto the products inside:
  • 3 Primers
  • 12 shadows
  • 1 pair of false lashes
  • 2 fragrances: Saint, and Sinner


Primers: there are 3 different primers. One, “skin”, is a matte nude color, “stellar”, a pink shimmery primer, and “smoky”, a grey matte primer good for use under dark shadows.

Shadows:
  • Tijuana- matte black with warm gold glitter
  • Taxidermy-warm deep coppery brown
  • Hollywood-the perfect shade of gold
  • Peanut-a lovely light taupe color, similar to rodeo by UD
  • Redemption-matte royal blue
  • Solitude-medium shimmer purple
  • Heartkiller-light baby pink with chunks of silver sparkle
  • Baudelaire-amazing silver shade
  • Monastary-matte black with multi toned shimmers
  • Poe blue- deep navy blue, shimmer
  • Nite owl-deep hunter green, shimmer
  • Lemmy-light shimmer yellow


And not to forget about the awesome pair of lashes it came with.

There is a funny story about the perfumes though. I had no idea it came with them. I got the palette home and (without reading the box) I tore it open and realized there was a hidden compartment. I opened it up and got soooo excited when I saw them!: 2 roller ball perfumes, “Sinner”, and “Saint”.  Sinner is more of a muskier, mature smell, while Saint is a sweeter smell, although it seems like they have the same base notes. Ill have to do a little more research on that to be sure, but I really enjoy them both! Sinner is my favorite so far. Im positive I will be purchasing a full size of that!



I would definitely give this a 2 thumbs up! Get it while you can for that price! This brand is exclusive to sephora so other than online, it’s the only place to get this palette. The new Kat von D palette is out now, the Candelabra edition, so they are just trying to get rid of the old palette. If you are interested, and you can find it, get it! Its totally worth it!

P.S., I picked up “Adora”, the perfume by Kat von D, on black Friday because the full size bottle was on sale for $10! It’s a beautiful scent. Clean, yet musky. Hints of mango, jasmine, and musk. I really want to get the “Poetica” perfume. Its more fruity and fresh.

As always, Questions? Comments? Requests? Let me know! I love your input! I finally got the facebook page up! Please like and share!

How was your Thanksgiving?!?! What do you have to be thankful for?

Also, what are some good polishes to use in water marbling? I have been experimenting with it a lot lately trying to find good polishes for it.
