Kat Von D Esperanza Palette Dupes!!!



This is a popular palette I have been hearing about on Youtube this year. I have done some looks with this palette, so I already had a lot of the dupes figured out. I decided to finish up duping the palette and making a blog post on it. I hope you find this helpful! This was limited edition. I found it here: Amazon for $56. I heard that Kat Von D makeup is really good. It has been getting a good buzz this year. Also I think this palette is really beautiful. I also like the interesting names she gives her products. I again owe a lot of help to finding my dupes via Temptalia's blog: http://www.temptalia.com/kat-von-d-esperanza-eyeshadow-palette-review-photos-swatches. I love how she has comparison pictures of all of her dupes next to the original. That is really helpful.

1. Selena: Wet 'n Wild I'm Feeling Retro, bottom color (my dupe)

2. Dayglow: Disney Ariel Storylook Eyeshadow Palette in Sick of Swimmin' (my dupe)

3. Galore: Sephora Disney Magic Carpet Ride Eyeshadow Palette in Splendid (Temptalia's dupe)

4. Placebo: Physicians Formula Warm Happy Booster Mood Boosting Blush (my dupe)

5. Santeria: Sephora Disney Storylook Palette Ariel in Jetsam (Temptalia's dupe)

6. Archangel: Pacifica Solar Complete Mineral Palette in Mermaid Aqua (my dupe)

7. South: Wet 'n Wild Brûlée (my dupe)

8. Dog Roses: Wet 'n Wild Fergie Newport Nights, middle color (my dupe)

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder Dupes!


I feel like I've been on a duping frenzy! I keep getting ideas for new dupe posts. I always keep track of dupes I find, but I don't always post them. A dupe is slang for duplicate. It is a product that is similar to another product, and hopefully it is cheaper. I don't know how close my dupes really are because I don't own any Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders. They cost $35. You can find them here: Sephora. There is also a palette that comes with three powders and it includes "Incandescent Light." Temptalia did a review on it on her blog: http://www.temptalia.com/hourglass-ambient-lighting-palette-review-photos-swatches.

This isn't all the Ambient Powders. These are just the ones I have seen people use a lot and I have duped.

1. Diffused Light: Sephora describes this as "soft, warm pale yellow powder." My dupe is a cream product, Benefit's Watt's Up!

2. Dim Light: "neutral peach beige powder" My dupe is Wet 'n Wild Brûlée. This is bizarre because Wet 'n Wild Brûlée is only $1.99 at drugstores! It is an eye shadow, but I used it to dupe Dim Light!

3. Incandescent Light: "pearlescent powder" My dupe is I think dead on. Physicians Formula Mineral Glow Pearls in Translucent Pearl.

4. Luminous Light: "champagne pearl powder" My dupe is Elf Blush in Gotta Glow.

5. Radiant Light: "golden beige powder" My dupe is Wet 'n Wild Color Icon Bronzer in Reserve Your Cabana. People always wonder why this is considered a bronzer because it looks like pale powder, but one time I tried to use it all over my face as a powder and it was darker than my skin color! So I think it is kind of a joke. It is for people as pale as me who need to "reserve their cabana" because they are going to get a sunburn if they don't!

Those are the dupes I found. I hope you find this helpful if you don't to pay the extra money! Highlighters have been really popular it seems this last year.

Redhead Makeup Looks


This is a picture of my new hair! I got it dyed even redder! I'm not sure how I like it. People have complimented me, so that makes me feel good. I might want to dye it a lighter shade of red, like Isla Fisher.


I like her color of hair, and it looks natural. I am a natural redhead, but my hair has gotten darker as I've gotten older. I also would like something lighter for the spring/summer time.

These are looks I found that I liked for redheads. I've done a redhead blog post before. I have to find the link for you. http://beautydiversion.blogspot.com/2013/02/redhead-makeup-looks.html

b. MAC Woodwinked, crease: left color in L'Oreal Hip Duo in Dynamic
c. MAC Melon, light wash inner tear duct over Femme Fi: 2nd shade in Wet 'n Wild Greed

i. Chanel Lip Pencil Beige 36: Boots No.7 Line and Define Lip Liner in Nude
j. Tom Ford Lip Gloss in Tawny Pink: Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Peony
My Thoughts: The light pink in Va Va Va Bloom is so pretty! The Bad to the Bronze color is really pretty too. Rose Silk is one of my favorite blushes. The Elf Evil Queen Beauty Book was limited edition, but it is the only purply-pink blush color I have. It looks really nice on the skin. If you don't have it that's ok, you can use the Covergirl Rose Silk by itself. This would be a pretty date look. It is really natural. I say this is a redhead look because they used a redhead model. Cate Blanchett usually has blonde hair, but I found a picture of her with red hair.


8. Jessica Chastain Red Carpet Makeup with Guest Artist Mary Greenwell by lisaeldrigedotcom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05wdaJ_O5VU

h. Givenchy Le Prisme Blush 15: Covergirl Cheekers Blush in Apricot
i. Chanel Lip Pencil Beige 36: Boots No.7 Line and Define Lip Liner in Nude
j. Estee Lauder Pure Color Vivid Shine Lipstick - Brilliant Bare: Rimmel Lipstick in Crush
My Thoughts: This is in addition to the Cate Blanchett look. It is for the evening time. It sort of looks like a peacock with green on the crease and purple on the lid. The cheeks are apricot and the lips are peach. It's a pretty look. I really like Rimmel's Lipstick in Crush. It's a pretty peach/nude color.


9. Amy Pond Tutorial (Hair and Makeup) by Jess D'Arcy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jfDSBLbdh4
a. Tinted Moisturizer

i. Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Glossy Rose: Kardashian Beauty Lip Plumping Shimmer Gloss in Rose Gold
My Thoughts: When you use Catwalk Pink, use a light hand, and a stippling brush. This is a pretty look for redheads.


Dupes for Julie G's Nail Polish Summer 2014!


I keep hearing how good Julie G's nail polish is. I was watching a video that was talking about the spring collection, and I wanted all the polishes! I went to the Jessie's Girl website, and it showed a picture of the new summer collection. I found myself wanting to run out to go get that too! They look like the perfect nail polishes for the summer, and it is only about $3! But I already have so many nail polishes. I thought I could look through my collection and see if I could dupe them. These polishes I think are more expensive, but most of them are not limited editions or you might already own them. This is just my opinion that they are dupes based on a picture I saw online. They may not be exact, but regardless they are good summertime nail polishes.

a. Concealer over lips
b. YSL Rouge Volupte Shine #15 Corail Intuitive: Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Lovers Coral

My Thoughts: The shade from A Great Glistener looks just like that purple from the Chocolate Bar palette! I wish I didn't put concealer on my lips because it messed up my lip look. I guess you need the right kind of concealer for your lips. The eyes are brown with violet on the lower lash line, a nude peach on the cheeks, and I chose the coral peach lip option.

Rose D'Oro is a pretty warm blush for redheads. The lipstick is nude, but the lip gloss is a pretty rose pink. I think the eye shadow looks good to bring out the green in my hazel eyes.
