So a few weeks back i finally caved and purchased the stunning Natasha Denona Bronze palette as I wanted to have some makeup fun with trying one of her palettes as I have never purchased a Natasha Denona palette before and boy im so glad I did her palettes are stunning in this blogpost i will be going into more depth with the shadows of this palette plus I have added this gorgeous Colourpop dupe if your looking to save but have a fun look that is similar with these palettes
They are both absolutely stunning palettes to have in your makeup collection the Natasha Denona one has more of a bronze & peachy duo chrome colour story to it with bronze shadows the Colourpop one has more of a lighter colour story going on with bronze tones the only difference i can feel with these shadows is some of the Natasha Denona ones that are really buttery in texture were getting a bit patchy when i was swatching them im not sure why this was happening as they didn't go patchy on my eyelids when i was having a play around with this palette maybe it was because the skin on my arm is different to my eyelid skin i still love both of these palettes the same though
The Natasha Denona Bronze palette has such a soft & buttery feel to the shadows they blend really well I love how much the glitter shines in the duo chrome shadows the only thing it is missing is one light matte shadow as I just always find having a lighter shadow tone helps lighten my crease with eye looks
Colourpop California Love Palette
This palette has a bronze burnt orange colour story to it the shadows are soft & buttery like all colourpop shadows do the the only diffrence between this palette & the Natasha Denona Bronze Palette is that there is a few more lighter matte shades to work with in the crease and there is a pressed glitter in the Colourpop palette
This was a eye look I created using the Natasha Denona Bronze palette
Have you tried this palette or the Colourpop one I would love to know your thoughts

Mars Bar Slice is a classic in our family this easy fridge making treat will be a winner with any chocolate lover here is my recipe on how I make this delicious chocolate slice
To make this you will need
2 bags of the mars bar chocolate 20 pieces per bag
2 heap table spoons of butter I used the Lurpak butter
2 cups of rice bubbles
1 bag of Cadbury melt chocolates
2 blocks of good quality dark chocolate broken into pieces
Some sprinkles to decorate on the top
In a large microwaveable mixing bowl melt all mars bars and butter together until smooth
Add the rice bubbles and mix together until coated through
In a oven dish add some baking paper and spoon on your rice bubble mars bar mix add you melted chocolate and add sprinkles
Leave in the fridge to set over night

As we've been in the House a lot more lately I have taken my love for all things succulents and indoor plants to create a little nook in our spare room full of my house plants that I have been growing in this post I will be telling you what I use to keep these plants looking healthy during the winter months
Firstly the main thing you need for all of these houseplants is Distilled water as it has no chlorine the chlorine that is in water harms the healthy growth of new leaves and does cause yellowing and browning in the leaves i purchase my distilled water in 5 litre bottles at Bunnings
I do use a water meter that i found from Amazon i always check my plants daily to make sure they are looking healthy
plus i use a diffuser a few times a day misting the plants helps as well that is what has helped me with
the houseplants
The Calatheas
These plants come in all different colours and variations these can be very temperamental you will know right away if something is wrong with your plant they need to be checked daily my diffuser runs at 180 minutes about 3 times a day to make sure they are getting to adequate humidity they need
White Fusion Calathea from Plants by Wendy
This beautiful baby has a mix of Green Creams & Purple undersides this is one of my favourite calatheas although there has been lots of tears growing this plant as my 1st one had not gone so great but this one is absolutely thriving from Plants by Wendy
Calathea Peacock Door 2 Door Plants
The peacock plant is a fun deep green leaf with little flecks of lighter green on the leaves the underside has a purple burgundy tone which is stunning when the plant lifts up at nighttime
The colours in these leaves are so beautiful the light lime green shade mixed with the deeper green of the striped pattern on the leaves also the shape of these leaves are so pretty and unique
Peperomia Plants
Moonlight & Red Luna these colours are just stunning I keep these 2 in my bedroom in a east facing window my moonlight peperomia is from Bunnings & the red luna is from door 2 door plants
Ivy Plants
Hendra Ivy
have the most gorgeous mix of green & cream leaves
Variegated Ivy
that I got online from a plant shop called Plant it up is a stunning cream and green ivy with flecks of purples in the leaves and on the stem of the plant
