Shopping My Stash... mark.Toute Sweet Whipped Eye Shadow in Fluff and Flou....

Ok...So I bought these, maybe two years ago, used them once, hated it, then tried to swap them off on MUA. No Avail..folks were not interested. I was cleaning out a drawer last weekend and there they were...sigh. I told myself "You are going work these out.":)

They are very souffle-ish. I actually love Fluff( left). Frou(right) looks like frosting. Everything "frosty" doesn't always translate to my skin well.

I put Fluff from the lashline to the crease and Frou from the crease to the lashline. I finally figured out that the best thing for applying cream shadows is a BRUSH. lol! I found a brush( in that same drawer) that was from a H.I.P. Paint tube that I had never used. So I used it. Worked like a charm!

( check out my freaky straight/curly lashes. No curler or curling mascara works... Help me!)

Now, what these pictures don't show it that its really streaky in color.Its formulation, after applied, has to dry up. So it looks streaky, which reminded me why I didn't like them in the first place...

Anybody own or owned these...let me know!

RG Project Bonus!...H.I.P. e/s in Riotous...

About a week ago, Walgreens had their BOGO Free on H.I.P. I picked out Riotous and Platinum( that's coming up later!).I did this look...ummm...Friday?lol! I can't remember.

Beautiful highly pigmented green side and the dark blackish green gives powerful color too. I love green eye shadows and blue nail polish...two of makeup favorites! Oh...and bronze-y lip gloss.

Check out my hat...$1.00 at the No Name Dollar "Sto". They also have those mini hand mixers(like for drinks and stuff) for....a dollar! lol!

N.O.T. D.: Sinful Colors in Daddy's Girl...

Hi!!
Today is the second anniversary of the day that my Daddy,Michael, went to Heaven to hang out with his brother and my Granny...I miss him soo much! It wasn't til' I was older that I realized I was a Daddy's Girl. I wanted so much for him to love me and be proud of me. When I was little I cry for hours because he would walk out the door to go somewhere and I couldn't go!! lol! I know that got on my mother's nerves!( hehe)

Today I'm wearing Sinful Colors in Daddy's Girl. Y'all...this is actually a deep jelly like dark purple with purple sparkle but I couldn't get this camera to convey the color right. This pic above is outside...

And this one is inside.... I love it though... My Daddy would be like..."Your nails are growing." :)

Shopping My Stash...Laremin Mineral Eye Colour in Sorcerer's Stone....

I found Laremin Mineral Eye Colour in Sorcerer's Stone in my mini tool box that I keep all my pigments and loose eye shadows in, still in its box, sealed in plastic. I think I got this at either Earth Fare or Whole Foods. Anyway...totally slept on!

I'm only wearing the Sorcerer's Stone, an eye shadow base and mascara on my eyes. I tried something a bit different...i took a black liner and lined my waterline. It made everything just pop!! You can tell I'm not a fan of waterline liner. Normally it makes my eyes small, but it worked with in conjunction with my Laremin e/s. The Laremin e/s also seemed softer in texture than other mineral shadows I've used.

Ignore the lip gloss on my teeth...I must pay better attention! lol!

Marshall's+Starbucks Weekend Haul...

My kids got one of their first of MANY Christmas presents on Saturday...an Applebee's gift card from an "Auntie". They LOVE Applebee's...geez. So, off we go. Then, we headed over to Marshall's. I miss being able to put the midgets in a double-stroller and push them around. Now, I have to watch their every step...so I didn't get to concentrate on digging in the makeup...but they were well behaved( Hallelujah God!!) and I got some presents and some me-goodies.

Picked up these Stila yummies...Stila Rouge Pot in Jasmine and Shadow Pot in Amber

That Rouge Pot in gorgeous and the shadow pot is nice too...I've already worn it! But why they named in Amber when it clearly Lavender is beyond me.

Lola lip gloss in Lust and two minis in Love...2.00 and the minis were a 1.00.

I wore Lust yesterday...Love it...2.00 well spent!

Got these brushes, 4.99 for the set...wasn't sure of them at first, but I always need more eyeshadow brushes. I like both!!! There was no fall out, they are tight in the handle and stiff so the color just picked up. The slanted brush is stiff...I can't wait to use this with my HIP cream liners...

Then...God shined his light down on his Starbucks addicted children( me and the boys)! lol! They were having a 20% off all of their merchandise and coffee beans. Scooped up these double walled mugs and some that fab Christmas blend coffee...
