Lancôme Je Ne Sais Quoi Collection


Oh You may miss out on this if your not paying attention but I was lucky enough to be in "Lordies" (Lord and Taylor) and found this wonderful collection. Lancôme calls it "Je Ne Sais Quoi" and introduced 3 matte Brightening eyeshadow palettes and 5 gorgeous single shadows! I was tempted to buy the whole collection as it was just laid out  but I'm going to have to save my pennies to get all 3 palettes. 
Here go some pictures:


There is one eyebrow pencil in the display as well as their staple Artliner and lash primer. 
The 3 eyeshadow palettes (Beige Brûlée, Chocolate Amande, and French Nude) are matte but they have one extremely sparkly top coat (marked by the Lancôme logo imprint) shade which takes the whole cake for me . Chocolate Amande has a little more of a gold pearl shimmer in it but is not in anyway glittery. The liner shades are also of a "velux pearl" consistency and kind of throw off of the whole matte idea IMO but still gorgeous anyway. If your looking for a cheap alternative to these luxurious ladies why not try to find the elusive Maybelline "Dare To Go Nude" collection that recently launched at drugstores the Maybelline collection may not hit mainstream stores until March but keep your eyes open.


The singles are so pretty if you're somebody who loves neutral colors then you're going to definitely want everyone of these guys. My favorite in particular is the taupe eyeshadow Eclair it's so so shimmery I can't get over it, just like the most amazingly gorgeous sparkly thing I have ever seen. The following pictures include swatches of the 5 single shadows and close ups.

Estee Lauder Gilded Rose Set

Bought these a while ago but I am just posting these as a review. These are a set of eyeshadows and marbleized shimmer powder. The eyeshadows come gilded but the gold is not incorporated into the shadows. These are satin colors one light baby pink, a magenta pink, a peachy tan pink, and the fourth is a tawny rose color. Super close to matte powders and a little disappointing because the "rose gold" overlay comes right off with one swipe. The colors are very nice though even if the overlay goes away. The marble shimmer powder feels good on my skin but as I have some tan left on my skin the rose blends a little bit too much. So a fair skin or yellowed skin will really benefit from the color in the marble if you want to use it as a blush. Otherwise the shimmer looks good as a general highlight. I did not buy both at the same time I got them from my local CCO for around 16.00 a piece. Compared to retail Estee Lauder prices this is very cheap. I wished there was a rose gold match

Customz - Pastel MLP

GWC Customz  - Pastel MLP (Feb 2020) View this post on Instagram A post shared by glitter_witch_crafts (@gwc_customz) The story: I bought a customizable MLP ( My Little Pony ) Figurine. It was affordable and had an interesting design. The Process: I painted it with a series of pastel colors, I made sure to blend them together in layers. Layering paints is the best method for making gradients or Ombre` effects IMO. After I was happy with the gradients I went in with special effects paints and coated the points of interest with glitter and matte sparkles.  Outcome : I was really happy with how this project came out most of my time was spent blending and building up color payoff. I do use craft paints and student grade acrylics which can be very transparent at times. Using a translucent paint does mean that painting a project can take a longer time than using heavy body paints that are thinned out. For me I am used to the process of mixing the thinned paint and I
OOAK Custom MH: Demon Hunter Frankie View this post on Instagram A post shared by glitter_witch_crafts (@gwc_customz) GWC - Custom Frankie Stein MH The story:  I wanted to make a custom doll design based on a drawing I found on Pinterest. If you want to see my inspiration boards please click here for my Pinterest account .  The Process:  I began this project with designing sketches in my notebook. I keep very small and quick drawings. I do this to work out the direction that my building strategies will take. Building the parts of the custom is the fun (IMO) and the most difficult part. Some people focus on face and hair but my intent with creating custom dolls is to make a figurine that matches my taste and interests.  Outcome : I think this build is one of the best I have ever done. The concept from start to finish went fluidly and I did not run into any problems. When I am developing a design I choose to make a project outline a
