LOL Glitter Cream Eye Shadow's x

Eye Shadow

So it was yesterday and I was having a little shop around Horsham with my Mum after a Design Technology Lecture in preparation for Year. 12 exams. Woo! Not much longer of Year.12 now my lovelies! :)

I went into K-Mart and found this cute little cheap glitter cream eye shadow.
It cost me around $3 and it's by a brand names LOL


So above pictures is the inside of the mini palette.
I wasn't expecting much from a cheap brand but surprisingly I was actually happy!
I love Glitter, and these cream's make it so much easier to apply.
The glitter is distributed throughout the cream thoroughly, the colours come up well.


This is a swatch of the Glitters. From lightest to darkest of the two different colours.

Garnier BB Cream x

BB Cream
BB Creams

So it wasn't very long ago that I bought these 3 beauties.
These have been my no.1 in my make-up bag for a little whilst now.
But the middle BB Cream is the newest addition.
There are two types of BB Cream from Garnier, so we will start with the middle one.

BB Cream for Oily Skin

This one pictured is the BB Cream that is for me.
This one is different to the other two as this is intended for oily skin. It reduces the look of dark under eyes and can reduce the pores on your nose.
I have been using this for a month now as an alternative to foundation.
When I use this I find that the oiliness look to my skin is dramatically reduced.
And the mores on my nose are much less clogged and pimply.
I find that this works much better than a foundation! Hides most of my imperfection better than a normal foundation. Most will be in shock when I say this, but I have actually given up my CoverGirl! That's how much I love it!

Swatch

This is a swatch of the BB Cream for Oily Skin.
It is a very runny cream, so don't squeeze the tube too much as it will literally just pour out!
This particular swatch is in "light"
This is a little bit too light for my skin, but my pressed powder corrects that :)



This is my second type of BB Cream.
Although this one is aimed for more of dry skin types as is is basically just a tinted moisturizer. Except so much more better.
I don't really tend to use this too much as the light is too light and the medium is too dark, and well.. I cannot be bothered mixing to match every day! Yes I'm lazy.. haha
But I do use this on my forehead when it becomes dry from the warm weather.

Swatches of BB Cream. Top: Medium, Bottom: Light

These are the swatches of the normal BB Cream.
The bottom is light and the top medium.

Well.. That is all for this post.

Boredom Has Struck Again! x


Hey everyone!
Haven't posted in a little while, had a bit of a busy holiday! Also planning to move to Mildura! WOO!

So it was only a couple of days ago that I was rather bored so I decided to have a little muck around with some make-up. I was rather bored and so this is what I came up with.

I used a lot of browns on the lid and darkened my brows.
A nice red lip, and of course the very strong cat eyeliner :)

I was really happy with how this look has turned out, hopefully it inspires you all to give extreme cat eyeliner a shot :)
My tip is that you use a gel eyeliner with a thin brush so that you have more control over where the liner sits and also so that you can get a really fine tip!
I also used a really shimmery black eye shadow and dabbed it over the top of the liner to give is more of a black look, to set the liner and also to add a bit of a shimmer!

Give this look a go, and send me the success photo's to me at:
