Alisha Reviews: Sweet Peach Pallette by Too Faced

Hey guys! Welcome to my very first Fab Friday on WNSW! 
Today I will be talking about the new Sweet Peach palette from Too Faced!

Let me start out by saying I am no makeup expert in any way whatsoever. I made a new year's resolution to learn how to properly use makeup, and it has very quickly grown into an obsession of mine. I spend a lot of my free time trying to learn about products and techniques (and spending WAY too much money buying makeup). So every Friday I will be giving you my opinion on those products and techniques. 


So the Sweet Peach palette from Two Faced launched on March 17th on their website. I literally had to stay up until 5:30 in the morning to get my hands on this. Dedication, I know! It has since then sold out, and even in the second launch date it sold out almost instantly. It has since been launched on both Ulta and Sephora's website, and (you guessed it) it is out of stock. However it should have launched in stores at Ulta on April 7th. Sephora's in store launch is April 15th, I believe. It costs $49.00, so it is definitely on the high end side of the makeup spectrum (is that a thing?).

Anyways, this palette is beautiful. Packaging is SO cute, but considering it's Too Faced that's obviously a given. This palette includes 18 shades of eye shadows that I personally think are perfect for spring. It also comes with a guide in the box that shows you how to use the shades to create three different eye looks. So when you're a beginner like me, the guide makes it easier to get a feel of how you want to use each shade. 

Every shade is VERY pigmented (I actually let my sister try it out and she said it went on way better than the Naked shadows). And yes it smells like peaches! I've swatched the colors in the picture below (I'm sorry I totally suck at swatches). I prefer the shimmer shades; Luscious has to be my favorite.

       Mississippi made it legal to deny service to someone if they feel that person goes against their religious beliefs. Gov. Phil Bryant discussed the new law, which is effective July 1, and said it prevented "government from interfering with people of faith who are exercising their religious beliefs...in matters of marriage."
       The governor of Mississippi also stated the new law would not allow discrimination to anyone, specifying that:
           "This bill does not create one action against any class or group of people. It doesn't create a new action or a defense of an action against those people." (Source: USA Today)

CAMPAIGN 2016: A Reaction

The campaign has brought up several issues, just like the campaigns before it.  As always, a top issue, immigration is one of the make or break issues for a candidate.

This year so many people are focused on THE WALL.  Obviously, there are many opinions on this.  Some think it's the most brilliant idea, while others think it's the most absurd idea.

(I think we can all agree the funding part of this idea is ridiculous) 

The main reason I've seen people hate illegal aliens is because they believe their sole purpose is coming here to steal our jobs, women, and get all the free benefits.

Yes it is true they get some benefits that not everyone has the luxury of.   However, have you seen the jobs these people do for little to nothing?  Do you honestly think you would do the same jobs for the same pay?  Have you ever met an illegal in your life?

A couple of years ago, I had met quite a few that came through work.  It honestly hurt my heart to see how hard they were trying to understand but couldn't.  Has it ever occurred to you, while you sit there filled with disgust, that these people are just trying to provide a better life for their family? 

I don't have children, but if I did I believe I would do whatever it took to try to provide the best lifeI could for them.  

Every now and then you hear about an illegal who raped someone or kills someone in a wreck.  

There are bad apples in every bunch. 

No, I am not defending those who are bad people in any way or justifying anything.

Literally, look around you.  Everyone knows bad people.  Blaming all for some is ridiculous.

An illegal killing someone in a wreck could have just as easily been the person driving drunk, texting and driving, or even speeding. 

I do wish they would go through the system and do it the right way, but God gave us a heart and we should never hate someone just because we don't agree with how they live their lives.

That's the thing about life, it's full of choices.  Is yours always right?
