Rough morning! I really enjoyed how my eyes came out, but I had a new bronzer disaster as well as a mineral powder disaster... I honestly wanted to hurl them both out the window.
I decided to try out some of my LA Colors Collection today.
Eyes: UD Primer on lids, monistat gel below eyes. I tried copying Sarra's neopolitan look from last week, but my colors were off. Bad lighting in my bedroom still I guess. It came out more like a 80's disco look than neopolitan!
All Over - LA Colors Mineral Eye Shadow - not a fan of this. Makes a mess and I feel like it was very gritty - the color was "white" Reminded me of Stila's Kitten or Jemma Kidds "elle" shadow (01) I won't be using this one again - in fact it might go straight to the circular file - it was very uncomfortable on my lids during application.
Lower Lids: La Colors Eye Candy and LA Colors Cafe Au Lait. I was very happy with application. Pigmentations were okay, but had to build up to get what I got. For me who doesn't like a lot of dark dramatic color it works.

Liner: Avon Glimmerstick - also some of the colors from the top rubbed onto my water line and I didn't remove them. I liked the effect.
Mascara: Avon Supershock - new for me Mascara. I hate the wand, but the end result was awesome. I think I'm going to have a love hate relationship with this mascara.
Cheeks: Elf Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder. This was a major FAIL for me, but I'm going to try again over the weekend. The bronzer was way too dark for my skin tone and I used the contour blush improperly I think. It had a ton of fallout and was an overall hot mess.
Face: Physician's Formula Mineral Wear. Another FAIL. This powder is not all over the front of my shirt. I'm not sure if it was the brush that came with it - or than I'm not used to loose powder... it was just awful though. I've used loose powders before and I don't remember them being that messy. Also used Clinique All About Eyes Concealer under my eyes and Neutragena pressed powder for damage control after using the Elf duo. There was shimmer fallout everywhere.
Lips: Avon Extra Lasting Lipgloss Constant Coral
But did I mention how much I'm enjoying my eyes right now? Yay me!
Pictures: Please ignore the cheeks - I haven't fixed the disaster yet. Also the lighting for these pictures is pretty bluish... There's no sun coming in right now and I didn't want to photoshop. Oh and the hair hasn't been done yet... air drying today.
