LOTD: Rain Rain and a little sparkle

Gloomy day out! What better way to fight off the gloomies than with sparkles! Today featuring Bobbi Brown's Velvet collection! Using a blue base, like Makeup Forever's cream shadows, layer one a sparkle shadow from Bobbi Brown's velvet collection. The sparkle speaks for itself with the tiniest hint of blue shining through!

LOTD: Greedy Peach



I have been LOVING the new Wet and Wild Color Icon shadow palettes. 6-Shades for 4.99 and the colors are buttery and soft - who knew!

Today is featuring the Greed palette. Probably by least favorite of the bunch. I can't quite figure out how they think that the peachy tones and black/grey tones combine to make a look. So, instead of the greys, I added in the Vanity palette for the brown and cream tones. The end result was peachy goodness!

MAC Rubenesque Paint Pot (base)
Shimmer peach from Greed Palette (lid)

LOTD: Into a Frenzy with just bitten



I've been testing out some of the Just bitten lipstain colors from Revlon this week. Excited about their color pay off and saturation, but by the end of lunch I looked like half my lipstick was blotchy and the other half was no where to be seen. I will do further testing before I issue my formal review, but it looked GREAT in these photos!

On another note, I am having a love affair with Grand Entrance eyeshadow from MAC. Sad story is that it was a limited edition color with the Starflash collection, but it's a soft wash of pinky cream which gives the effect of soft candlelight on your eyelids. Gorgeous!
