Urban Decay Primer Potion-Greed

I finally jumped on the bandwagon!! I just discovered Urban Decay's eye base! I.bought it for $8.97 at Nordstrom Rack and have been wearing it everyday since then :) I got it in Greed (shimmery Gold) because of the shimmery finish it works really well with non matte eyeshadows. The texture is light weight, almost mousse like and dries quickly. It also intensifies the color of the eyeshadows. The applicator is angled and fits around the curves of the eye. The only thing I'm regretting is not buying the original primer potion because at $8.97, you can't pass this up! What's your favorite eye primer?









Swatch

Napoleon Perdis Palette

I bought the Rainbow Eye Palette at Nordstrom Rack yesterday for $10.00 I liked the colors because they're all shades that's I am comfortable wearing.

The pigmentation is great and the texture is really smooth. The only color that was not very pigmented was the Salmon shade (next to the Orange)

Simple Eotd

I been using this palette everyday since I bought it :) I loVe all of the shades and find it very easy to go from day to night with this palette. Today I did a really simple look using three of these shades.


Green dot: is the shadow I used on my lid
Blue dot: used lightly in my crease
Pink dot: used on the browbone and inner corner of my eye.


please excuse my brows :) I'm letting them grow out




With flash-The colors here are very accurate.

Natural Palette

I bought this palette because I'm a sucker for neutrals I lOVe, love, LOVE neutrals. This palette was $6.50 at forever21 and has 10 eyeshdows. I guess it's a knock off of Urban Decay's Naked palette. I passed on the Naked Palette craze, they're beautiful shades bUt I feel that I didn't need another palette of neutral colors...anyway for the price the color pay off is fair and decent. It comes with 2 matte eyeshdows, and one thats has a finish that's comparable to MAC's lustre eyeshdows. The rest of the eyeshadows are shimmery shades. The palette also comes with an eyeliner pencil in black and a double ended mini brush. Sponge tip and angled brush.

These are the last two shades

Shopping My Makeup Stash

Today I looked in my makeup stash for lost and forgotten products. In my search I found....
Cargo matte bronzer in medium. I liked this bronzed because you can build the intensity and it's easier to make it look "natural"
NARS cream blush in Penny Lane. This blush is a baby Pink blush that goes well with my skin tone also I like using it on my lips :)
NARS eyeshadow in Ashes to Ashes one of my favorite taupe eyeshdows. I love to put this shadow over MAC backtrack eyeliner because the color changes to a darker shade of grey
Inglot eyeshadow #33 this shadow has major color pay off! I remember I use to line my bottom lashline with this for a pop of color.
Dianne Brill lip lingerie in Satin Sash. This is the only Dianne Brill item I own and I love it! The color is a shade I think will look great on every skin tone because it's a natural color.
MAC lipstick in Fabby. I would of never discovered this if it wasn't for my husband. He bought it for me because he said he never seen a purple lipstick before... At first I was like huh?? But he's right! This lipstick is a purple/mauvy pink color with gold sheen. :) In the end it's my favorite for 2 reasons-the fact that my husband picked it out on his own and because of the color.
Have you guys been using any lost or forgotten products??

Birthday Gift

Kat Von D. Saint palette, Nars lipstick in Schiap and Urban Decay setting spray and primer duo. If you've never tried Kat Von D's eyeshadow I suggest you head over to Sephora... :) not only are her eyeshadows extremely pigmented, they're super smooth and creamy. They feel like butter! I've yet to try the Urban Decay setting spray...hope it keeps my makeup intact :)

True Romance Eyeshadow palette. Very wearable everyday neutrals.


Schiap-semi-matte, bright Pink no shimmer. It looks great with black winged liner ;)



Bought these bracelets at Charlotte Russe and forever21 earlier today.
