Makeup Monday 03-26-18

So  I am hoping to continue a series of "Makeup Monday" where I post what makeup I am using, a picture of how it came out and what look I came up with.
So first let me begin by posting the picture of the products I used and I will let you know how it went: The only things I haven't shown, simply because I forgot is a Laura Mercier blush and a Makeup Revolution bronzer which I slept on all year but is amazing! Get yourself some Makeup Revolution it is so good.

Products

 Here is how the look came out, I chose to use the LA Colors Day & Night Palette. This palette is full of violets and oranges which are great colors to use together if you have darker skin these they are complimentary to darker or yellow beige tones. So all you really need is a tan to pull off a shimmery neutral look. I can say if you have light or fair skin that is more pink toned it probably will look more dramatic since the colors will not blend in with your skin tone as much they will look more opaque.

I really liked that palette and I think it was only $1 or $2 but LA Colors never let me down. I get mine from Dollar General here in NJ either Dollar Tree or Dollar General sell LA Colors but I almost never see new items at Dollar Tree. Below is a snap shot of how the look itself came out. The NYX concealer was really good, it covered and was super dewy. I am not into matte since I'm getting older I want to look young and vibrant.

Marc Jacobs Blaquer Mascara

So I may be the last person in the word right now to tell everyone what I think of Marc Jacobs beauty but slowly I'm making my way through the products.  http://www.sephora.com/lash-lifter-gel-volume-mascara-P379421 The first product I want to talk about is the Marc Jacobs Blaquer Mascara, this product is a tubing mascara and builds up amazing volume. The wand is triangular in circumference which is really great for getting to all of my lashes, it's also very long which grabs most of them at once and since it's a tubing mascara it would need to. My eye lashes are super black and don't smudge or run and I have extremely runny eyes that just pour tears out of my outer corner whenever they are even slightly irritated. So lucky me, this mascara is yet another 25$ way too expensive product but honestly it's great. Here's the down side I do not recommend putting mascara on the top and bottom at the same time. Some mascara's don't mind touching together but sin...

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 y...

#Inktober 2018 1 week recap

Hi everyone welcome to my Inktober for 2018. This year I have tried to make more of an effort to have a complete idea. My goal is to develop a method for creating a complete idea. I do not always think through my drawings and often times end up with an unfinished sketch or rough idea. So this year I have been making the effort to go forward until a drawing is finished. I'm not looking to make 31 drawings just 31 post to my social media. The posts will be in various stages of development because I need to work on creating a complete idea. I used to hate making a solid composition and purposely wanted an unfinished idea but now that I'm older I see how truly unfinished my work looked, it just wasn't complete. So now I'm working on what  complete means to me and what I consider a complete piece. If you want to see all of the photos from Inktober 2018 please look at my instagram Glitter_Witch_Crafts to see how everything turned out. This was my first post for the ...
