I finally bought the " Pastel" Mehron Palette

Pastel- Mehron Palette

I bought this palette from: http://www.stagesupply.com

It cost 25.95 without shipping and handling. It came pretty fast but when it came I was like Aahhhhhhh!!!!! It is so pretty and it smells like coconut. Mmmmm!! It also comes with a really good mirror. The colors are amazing. These palettes are water activated but you only need a drop...actually even less a drop. You sorta just have to experiment with it. They work really good as a base...makes the color more vibrant.

Here are some swatches dry, from top to bottom:

Here are some swatches wet....Tuhh duh!!!!

It was easier for me to put a drop of water with one of those travel bottles. But do what works for you.

OMG!!!! These OCC Lip Tar's are amazing!!

OCC Lip Tar

(OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS)

Ok..So I just watched a video from Lauren (QueenOfBlendingMUA) on Youtube. She showed these Lip Tars in three different colors, that I fell in love with!!!!

On the OCC website they have 9 different colors:

• UBER
• MELANGE
• SAFETY ORANGE
• NSFW
• PAGEANT
• KATRICIA
• TARRED
• FEATHERED
• CLEAR
  

They sell for 12.50 each. They look so pigmented and she put on literally a dab and the gloss went so far....So a little goes a long way! The OCC website says they go on slick and moist, and dries down to a satin finish. I am gonna buy all three and then some. I just thought I should tell you guys, how amazing they look.

LOTD (Look of the day) Using Coastal Scent Palette!

Here is the look of my day!!

I used two colors from the CS palette... the light blue and dark brown. I used Great Lash from Maybelline in "Very black" for mascara.

And last but not least I did the waterline using the black gel liner also from CS. Its a simple look!!




The light blue...

Dark Brown...

And..... Tuh duh!!!!!

Peace!!!

I bought new holders for my makeup brushes.

I love the pink bucket with the bow!!!! Cute Cute!!! I got it at target for only a dollar people...yay!!! And it fits hecka brushes too. The clear little one I bought from the dollar store. I also bought the blue star things that I put inside...It does not fit much but cute. Those were obviously a dollar each too...Yay!!

Oh ya!! I also bought 4 Cornell brushes at the D and J hobby store. They were 1.6o or something around there!! Really good price!! Love em!!

This is what bordom does?

So I was a little bored after I came home from shopping today. So I decided to make something. I have been using a dinner plate to put my brushes on while they dry, after I wash them...A plate people!!! bleh!! So I decided to make something that I can put my in brushes while they dry. Here it is:


(Yes, Its a shoe box)

What I did:

What I did was I poked a bunch of different size holes in the bottom of the shoe box. (Using a pen) Then cut all four sides in the middle...so there is air for the brushes to breath and so it can stand up correctly. That's it!!! I am going to clean up the edges and also decorate it in the days to come. Oh ya, If your someone that cares about the MAC label on your brushes, You probably don't want to do this...or figure out a way that its not so harsh on the brush handle, while your sliding it in.

How it works:

You take the makeup brushes, bristles down and put the brush in to one of the holes from the bottom of the box up ....Here's how it looks:


And that's it!!! I thought it was fun!! You can also use something less bulky then a shoe box too.... Although, I like it for drying a lot of my brushes at one time!!!

Love Peace and Chicken Grease!!
