On the center of the lid I applied shimmery coral shade, which is still pretty light and sheered out. In the outer corner I used dark shimmery dark moss green shade to add slight green tint to it. Instead of black eye liner I used brown gel eye liner to make the look a bit softer. 

I finished with black mascara.

On the rest of my face I used BB cream and liquid concealer. I also powdered a bit. To give my face a bit of color I lightly used matte bronzer all over my face. On my cheeks I applied shimmery coral blush with gold sheen. Then I added white pink highlighter on top of cheeks and mixed it in with blush to create really glowy cheeks. 

I also wanted something soft and shiny on my lips so I created ombre lips. In the inner rim of lips I used matte orange lipstick. Then I took coral peachy lip gloss and applied it all over the lips to create that Korean like you've been sucking on popsickle look. I've been really loving wearing that kind of lip look lately.

What kind of makeup do you like to wear in the spring? Do you like shiny or bolder lipsticks?

Sassy - shimmery cool white. I don't really care for this one, because I very rarely use white for inner corners. I like them to e a bit warmer. It's a good inner corner highlighter for neutral or cool toned looks. 

Stubborn - shimmery warm dirty pink. Not my typical shade and a bit too light for my taste. Good for those who like softer pink looks. 

Selfish - shimmery cool taupe brown. It's too cool for my personal taste, but I know this will be favorite for many of you who like taupe shades. 

Sophisticated - shimmery medium cool brown (has bigger and a bit more sparse gold shimmer). This one is kind of a blah shade for me. I don't find it interesting enough plus it's also cool toned - not my usual choice. 

Sexy - matte purple burgundy. One of those unique and really good quality burgundies. I really like this shade for all over the lid or to warm up the crease. 

Serious - matte black. Must have for any eye shadow palette. I love using matte black shades as an eyeliner. It gives a softer look than liquid eyeliners. 

Snobby - shimmery warm light yellow gold. I really like this one for the inner corners or to put on top of other shades to give a bit of warmth.

Stand-offish - shimmery peachy pink. This is my favorite for the inner corners. It's such a nice mix of pink and warm peach. 

Sultry - matte warm caramel brown (yellow toned). This is one of my favorites from this palette. It's just the right shade of light and dark and amazing for the crease for warm skin tones. 

Seductive - shimmery warm gold brown (yellow toned). This is by far my favorite shade of this whole palette. I adore it. It's also very unique in my collection.  I especially love the yellow tint to it.

Silly - shimmery warm dark chocolate brown (has bigger gold chunks of shimmer). This one is a total miss. It looks very pretty chocolate brown in the pan, but the shimmer doesn't transfer on the lid. It's also really hard to work with. 

Sleek - matte cool very dark brown. This one is also one of those must haves for most. It's a bit too dark for my personal taste, but still nice for deepening crease. 

Stand-offish, Selfish and Seductive have the most creamy wet formula with crazy good pigmentation. They are shimmery and apply very intensely.  

Snobby is on the sheer side. Sophisticated is also a bit sheerer than Stand-offish, Selfish and Seductive and a bit harder in texture, still very good. Sassy and Stubborn are both nicely pigmented and apply fairly opaque for lighter shades. 

All the matte shades Sultry, Sexy, Serious and Sleek are very pigmented. As with most matte formulas, these are a bit more powdery, but easy to blend and have an amazing pigmentation for matte shades. 

Silly is the most disappointing from the whole range. It has hard dry formula and applies sheerer. It also has the biggest chunks of shimmer which don't really do much or add to the actual shade. This shade is a total miss in my opinion. 

In general these eye shadows are of really good quality. Shimmery shades are pigmented, some really creamy and the palette in general has good pigmentation. Mattes are the most powdery and dry, but are also one of the most pigmented matte shades I own. 

As per usual I took photos of some of the eye makeup that I created with the combination of these eye shadows. This way you'll get an idea as to how they look like on my skin tone.

Eye shadows last well on the lids, but for some reason they don't stay on my lids the whole day. I think it might be the fact that I started testing them, when my skin got a bit oilier. It's warmer and therefore my skin produces more oils then in colder months. If your lids are oily, they won't stay on the lid the whole day. Nonetheless, they stay perfect for around 8 hours on me with Avon eye primer underneath. After that they get a bit in the crease and also fade a bit. 

If I compare them with Zoeva Cocoa Blend, I will say that the formula of eye shadows is very similar. Both shimmery shades are very wet. Mattes in Nude'tude are a bit drier to the Zoeva mattes, but both have amazing pigmentation. They also both last about the same time on my skin. I will say that Zoeva eye shadows are about 2 hours more long lasting on me. 

In case of the actual shades, I personally prefer Zoeva, because there are more warmer shades and warmer shades look better with my skin tone. I do miss matte black and matte neutral medium brown shade in this palette though. Nude'tude seems more appropriate for those with neutral skin tone and those that like darker shades. It has a lot of dark shades and a mix of cool and warm shades.

In terms of price, Zoeva is more affordable, but don't get used to it. They've recently changed the price of their palettes, of course they're more expensive now. I have already stated my disgust to the brands that take their prices up for no reason (or maybe because of the popularity of their products?!), so I am not sure when they'll decide to make them even more expensive. Now they cost around 22€ and in the palette you get 15 grams of product. Nude'tude costs around 38€ and in it you get 11.08 grams of product. With Zoeva you get 10 shades and Nude'tude gives you 12 shades. It's up to you to decide which shade selection you like better and how much you wanna spend on your palette. 

Without a doubt Nude'tude palette has amazing quality eye shadows (expect for Silly). Eye shadows are creamy, blend nicely and are fairly long lasting. Shade range includes some cool and some warm tones. It goes from lighter to darker shades. I do miss a bit of medium shades in the palette. I am in general impressed, but would go for a different color selection for my personal taste. 

Mateja also did an amazing review of the Nude'tude palette. 

I already reviewed some other theBalm products. 

On my wish list is still Nude Dude palette (I think it has more of the warmer my kind of shades) and Bahama Mama Bronzer (I'm curious, because it's very hyped up). Ever since Mateja said to me that their Meet Matt(e) Hughes Long-lasting Liquid Lipsticks would probably be nice for someone with drier lips, I also have my eye on these (her review of Adoring). All the shades look pretty and it's kind of hard to decided. I think I like best Commited and Sincere.

Eyes

Pink is the least interested to me in the form of an eye shadow. For some reason they usually are cooler toned and they're way to girly for my personal taste. Nonetheless, I still have a few pink eye shadows in my collection.

Sleek i-Divine Ultra Matts V1 Brights is a nice palette with very bright colorful shades. Among these you'll also find three pink shades. Two are on the bright medium side (and pretty familiar in the shade range - Pout and Pucker) and one - Floss is a very pale flesh toned pink great as a base. Other two pops of pink I like to use on the lid or as an addition to other eye makeup. 

theBalm Nude'tude palette has one very wearable shimmery pink called Stubborn. This can be used all over the lid for a romantic light feel or in the inner corners to bring some light in there. 

Essence All About Roses palette has a selection of mauve and taupe shades, but the second shade in the bottom line is also lightly pink toned. This one is again great for the inner corners or as a base. 

Avon Supershock Vivid Liquid Eye Shadow in Pink Party is a stunning shimmery silver based light pink shade that looks amazing on it's own. It will give you that sleek wet look to the eyes and it lasts well on the eyes.

Avon Supershock Gel Eyeliner in Flash is one of the best gel liners in a pen form for the inner corners. This is very pigmented and has almost pearly shimmery finish. It's great for adding light to the eyes in the inner corners, for putting it in the center of the lid or around the lower lash line to make your eyes look wide awake. 

Cheeks

I think pink is the most prevalent color in the blush category. Those who like blushes usually like them to be pink. Not me. I much prefer peach toned blushes, because they suit my complexion better and they go better with my warm toned eye makeup. Still, I do have a nice pink collection of blushes, although I don't use them as often as I should. I seem to gravitate towards pink more in the spring. 

E.l.f. Blush palette in Light. This is a really amazing blush palette for a very affordable price. In the palette are also two pink shades. One is light cool toned and matte. The other is darker pink almost a bit coral and shimmery. The quality is amazing.

Artdeco blush in 24 Pink. This is one of my oldest pink blushes and one of the best shades for my personal taste. It's warm toned and almost looks a tiny bit peachy. It has a really nice small shimmer which looks super natural on the skin. 

Essence LE Happy Girls Are Pretty Multi Colour Blush is more of a fall shade in my opinion, because it's mauve pink. I still like it, because it's a bit more dirty looking and less obvious pink. I also like it because it's very light (the pigmentation is at fault here too). 

Maybelline Colorama 101 Blush is for those who love shiny blushes. This has a lot of shimmer in it for a very glowy almost highlighter kind of look. The shade is a unique mix of peachy pink and it's very light. 

Catrice Defining Blush in 070 Pinkerbell is the most pigmented and bright of them all. It is an obvious cool toned fuchsia pink shade. This is crazy pigmented and almost a bit too classic pink for my taste, but goes amazing with fuchsia lipsticks. 

By Nanda Three Colour Blush in S01 is pretty light shimmery blush. I really like this one. It's very light and the shimmer is not as obvious, but looks very naturally glowy on the skin. I also like that you can mix your own shade. Gold shimmer in the middle gives it a warmer tone, which I adore. 

Lips

My favorite way of using pink shade is on the lips. I've really stayed away from pink lipsticks for a very long time. I didn't like the usual cool toned pink lipsticks, because they clashed with my warm skin tone. But since lipsticks shades have gone wild, I've been liking a lot of pink shades more and more. I especially adore unique fuchsia toned pinks. 

Essence Longlasting Lipliner in 02 Sweetheart is really pretty medium pink shade. The formulation of it is so creamy that you can easily mistake it for a lipstick. This is a great way of wearing pink lips, but not spending money on a whole lipstick.

Avon Ultra Glimmerstick Lip Liner in Pink Cashmere. This I wouldn't wear all over my lips, because it's a drier formula. It's a great outline for any pale pink lipsticks. 

Avon Ultra Glimmerstick Lip Liner in Pink Bouquet is fairly neutral light pink that can be paired with most pink lipsticks. Because it's quite stiff it means that you can create a nice precise outline for those perfect lips. 

Avon Kiss'n'go lipstick in Amour is for those that don't like pigmented colorful lipsticks. This is very sheer, warm toned neutral pink that will suit most skin tones. It has a nice almost lip balm feel to the lips.

Makeup Revolution Iconic Pro lipstick in Not in Love is great very red toned pink alternative. This is super bright and amazingly paired with summer skin. It's one of the most unique pinks.

Avon Ultra Colour Indulgence in Petal Pink is very pale cool toned fuchsia pink. This would look amazing with cool fair skin tones. 

Avon 3D Plumping lipstick in Pucker Up is one of those fairly classic bright pinks that will also look amazing on many skin tones. It's a bit barbie like for me personally.

Avon 3D Plumping lipstick in Heat Wave is a bit more red pink and bright enough to look good with many different eye makeups. It's also on the warmer side for all of you who have warm skin tones.

Avon True Colour Perfectly Matte lipstick in Posh Petal is a shade of it's own range. This is such a unique mix of classic pale pink and fuchsia undertone. It's more of cooler baby pink and this would look amazing paired with cooler blond hair. It's also a really nice shade for fair skin tones, because it's cooler and still gives a slight bit of pink tint.

Avon true Colour Perfectly Matte lipstick in Ideal Lilac is one of my favorites. This is unique mix of bright pink and cool fuchsia. I find it one of the most unique bright, but not dark pink shades.

Avon True Colour Perfectly Matte lipstick in Pure Pink is one of those very warm toned almost nude pinks. It's somewhere along the lines of MAC's Patisseries. I figure this will look good on many different skin tones. It's more of a neutral shade.

Avon True Colour Perfectly Matte lipstick in Adoring Love is again one of those unique bright pink shades that almost looks a bit dirty and muted down. This will look amazing on fair skin tones as well as medium. It's on the cool side. 

Avon True Colour Perfectly Matte lipstick in Spendidly Fuchsia is a brighter and more pinkier version of Adoring Love. This is for those that like to be seen and just adore bright pinks. It's very blue toned. 

Nails

Pink is not my usual color for the nails, but I do have some unique shades that I love to wear. I've especially enjoyed muted pale pinks these few months.

Maybelline Color Show LE Blushed Nudes in 447 Dusty Rose is the most unique mix of pale pink and lavender. I adore this shade, it's been on my nails for the whole past month and still going strong. 

Ciate Paint Pots in Serendipity is a nice top coat with redish pink shimmer that you can put over other shades to bring some pink to them. The shimmer in it is very small and applied pretty evenly.

Maybelline Colorama in 317 is one fo those really birght fuchsia toned pinks and it's one of my favorite bright pink shades. I especially love wearing it in the summer. The shade is pretty unique and everyone seems to like it.

Golden Rose Color Expert Nail Lacquer in 102 is dirty brown based warm pink. This is great for those who don't really like pink, but love browns and nudes. It looks really pretty on fair skin tones, because it's a bit darker and won't make your nails disappear. 

Maybelline Colorama in 77 is a very baby pink shade and for some reason I really like it. It's a pastel pink, but seems almost a bit warm toned to me. A really nice understated pink nail polish. 

For someone that doesn't like pink I sure do have a nice selection of pink products, right?! Pink is really starting to grow on me, especially in spring time. My favorite are still pink lipsticks. Let me know what are your favorite pinks to wear.
