A Colorful Look I Wanted to Try Out from YouTube
I forget what it was called because I got it from eyeXluvXmakeup (on Youtbue – who I subscribe to) who got her version inspiration from JulieG (who is also on Youtube – who I am NOT subscribed to so I didn’t see the original version). I like to do some very colorful, sometimes unwearable looks and dark, vampy looks on the weekends and when I go out so of course I decided to go for it.
I wanted to try it out on my eyes because I have “chinky” eyes and less lid space to work with so that those with the chink factor can see that although it doesn’t look like the original looks that inspired me, that it does in fact work for us. When I open my eyes the only part of eyeshadow that shows is my brow bone highlight and a little of my upper lid which sucks, but this is the eye shape that God has given to me so I have no choice but to work with them. When I look down and over that’s when you can see my look perfectly, but who looks down to the side all day? LOL.
I subscribe to mostly Asian beauty gurus who do eyeshadow tutorials because most of them share my eye shape. Normally, I don’t copy looks from others to post on my blog, but I really like my version of the look so I decided to post it.
Beauty.com 20% “Certain Items” Sale Haul
This sale came out right after Sephora ended their 20% of Friends and Family sale. I didn’t catch their sale in time so I went to Beauty.com and got the same deal. I only wanted three things, but one of them Sephora didn’t have at the time and Beauty.com doesn’t have at all and that was Gold Member cream blush from NARS. The other two items I did purchase were Love Joy blush by NARS ($25.00) and that Stila Smudge Pot mini set that came with a tiny liner brush ($36.00) + the 20% discount. And yes, I paid $5.99 shipping 
for snail mail.
Anyway, here are my items. Please excuse my camera, but it was acting out that day…
Smudge Pot colors, top row, from left to right: Kitten (reminds me of painterly paint pot, but shimmery and creamy) and Starry Night (a deep blue-purple color)
Smudge Pot colors, bottom row, from left to right: Violet (a dark violet color) and Black (jet black)
Blush: NARS Love Joy (a shimmery, medium-dark, pink-tan color with gold flects of glitter)
