Butter London Palette

This Christmas my parents got me this Butter London Palette from Ulta.
They admitted that they went in there not knowing what to look for. When I saw Butter London, I immediately thought of their rich nail polishes. However, I was surprised to find out that it was eye shadow! This palette contains both eye shadow, a blush and a highlighter pen.

I am excited to try out a new look with this palette, but I went ahead and swatched some of the colors.
First of all, the packaging is absolutely stunning. It looks so pretty on the bathroom counter and as an addition to my purse. It's sparkly and looks so fancy! I appreciate how they made the packaging sleek and glamorous. Hints the name, "glitz and glamour". 


The palette includes 4 neutral colors, 2 mattes, 1 satin and 1 glitter. The dark shade does have glitter, but does not look glittery or full of fall out. When I swatched the color, I noticed the glitter reflected some light, but was more matte than glittery. 


The picture does not give this highlighter justice. It reflects an iridescent glow and adds a perfect shimmer to the top of your cheekbones.  



Overall, I am impressed with Butter London's palette as I think nail polish when I think of their brand. Simply gorgeous!

Mandu 만두

I found a great recipe on my new favorite Korean recipe website Cooking with Maangchi.
There I found a fantastic recipe for Mandu 만두. 

I went ahead and posted the ingredients. I posted pictures below of the ones I made! To go to the complete recipe and directions with pictures, go to the website link I have posted above. They are absolutely DELICIOUS! I made a huge batch and froze the meat along with some of the already made mandu to just heat up.
