Review: MAC Sumptous Olive...

Thursday, August 20, 2009

Miss Kim gave me MAC Sumptuous Olive after she bought TWO of them by mistake! lol! I worked it out this morning before taking the boys to school...
I did the Sumptuous Olive in the inner corners to the middle, then worked a black shadow on the outer eyes and finished it off with a vanilla color on the brow bone...Love it!!

Shopping My Stash: MAC Fluidline in Macroviolet....

I swapped for MAC Fluidline in Macroviolet on MUA about a year ago and had yet to really see how it performs...I took a concealor brush and applied Macroviolet like a base then did a purple e/s out of a Santee palette I have. Then I use NYX White e/s as a highlight...

Macroviolet didn't move off my eye all day...Those MAC Fluidlines are great eye shadow bases, even though I only own one. lol!

I took this photo like 6 hrs after putting my makeup on, so excuse my greasy-ness...love that pretty dark lavender...Wonder if I put a black pigment on top of Macroviolet what would happen...hmmmm....

Zoya MatteVelvet Collection and N.O.T.D Zoya Loredana....

I just knew I wasn't going to fall into the Matte Nail Polish trend...I knew it!! I mean, I own one matte nail polish( its a Sinful Colors polish, forgot the name) and it sucks, so I just thought I would try to ignore this Fall Beauty trend...

Then that Zoya 5000 offer rolled around on Twitter and it was too hard to resist!!! So, I picked the three Zoya MatteVelvet in Loredana, Dovima, and Posh....

Today I'm wearing Loredana and I love it!!! It's more of a velvety sheen than pure matte. You still get some gloss but it pulls off the matte look. Its a good breakway from all the tropical colors I've been wearing on my nails this summer and has me wanting Fall to show up....now!! The only negative I will say about the Loredana color is that its THICK. I thought it might be old, how thick and streaky it went on. Make sure ya'll screw tops on good, Zoya. MMMMkkkay?
