Another Lazy Makeup Demo – Violette Voss Review

Hello my lovelies! Another lazy eye shadow demo, a well blended half half lid that works great for droopy creases like my own! I got to play with the Violette Voss Olive You Forever Shadow Palette, which was a nice find. Pigments were strong, no fall out, which is why I’ll be collecting a few more Violette Voss palettes in the future.

Hope you enjoy, until next time!

Kryolan Cosmetics Rant

Hello my lovelies,

Normally I love Kryolan Cosmetics, which was why I was so excited with my latest haul from their site. Unfortunately, they let me down! I’m so disappointed with these products! I was hoping to find something great to add to my kit. This wasn’t it.

Until next time

Purple Smoky Eye Tutorial

Hello my lovelies, today I am doing a quick Purple Smoky Eye Tutorial using Marc Jacobs Eye-Conic shadow palette and playing with a Fenty highlighter. Since I have a hooded eye it’s not a traditional smoky eye with a full dark lid. Instead I’ve chosen to do a modified smoky with a silver lid. I’ve used the dark purple in the crease to minimize the appearance of my droopy/hooded lid. I had fun with this witchy purple and digging this killer smoky eye!

Hope you enjoy!

Until next time…
