Favorite shades...Greens

I have a "thing" for green eyeshadow. I'm not really sure why. Green isn't my favorite color but I am always drawn to green shadows. So here's a list of my fav green shades...

10. Urban Decay- flipside...an electric teal with a blue sheen
9. MAC-swimming...sparkly light green with silver glitter
8. MAKEUP Forever- apple green #91...beautiful apple green with a slight shimmer to it
7. MAC-Club...Very dark almost brownish green. Duo chrome color. So pretty.
6. NARS-Night Porter...This is a black with green sparkles so it looks like a very dark exotic green
5. MAC- Rated R (LE)...lemon/lime hot neon green. Very shimmery.
4. MAC-juxt...light grassy green. Good color for inner V of eye.
3. MAC- Humid...Dark shimmery green, Great crease color. Adds lots of pop
2. MAC- newly minted...nice matte medium green. Goes well with lots of other shades
1. MAC-springtime skipper (LE)...Such a lovely shade of light to med green with a flash of yellow to it.

So, Glamour girls, it has been forever and a day since I have blogged. I haven't made a YT video in ages either. I was suppose to be closing on a new house and we are still waiting. My house is half packed and making a video is just way too much effort at this point. So I am going to try and blog more frequently. I will do a series of my favorite colors.

I am going to do a video about pigments, what they, how to use them type of thing. I was really confused as to what they were when I first heard about them and didn't really understand them. They can be used for so much more than eyeshadows! Also, how to save money and get the best bargains on pigments. So stay tuned!...

Garnier brusher gel-cleanser skin renew

So, I have bought way too much stuff in the past few months and have decided to be a budget bitch. Need to find more ways to save money and still look fabulous. I love Garnier products. They work well, are nicely prcied and endorsed by SJP! How can a girl go wrong?
This is cool in the shower cause it's all one piece. It has soft little nubby things on the end to scrub your face with. Skin feels so smoth after washing, but it does not over do it and leave skin dry. You just need a tiny amount for this to work. What a great idea!

Free nail polish using Ulta points

OPI Ink. Really pretty dark purple/blue sparkle polish. I was sad that the Alice in Wonderland polishes were sold out and the new Hong Kong spring colors looked like a lot of polishes I already had. So...this is what I got. Best part, it was free! Used my Ulta points. You get 1 point for every 50 dollars you spend and the polishes are 2 points. I think will be an awesome toe color.

oops! forgot the quad I got! Colour 3

From the plum color story- Pink mink, brusied plum, black tulip and jungle moon.

Spring Colour Forecast

Really had to cut my list down for this MASSIVE collection. It's actually 4 collections in one. Consists of Pink, plum, coral and amber color stories. I really wanted a lot more, but it all really adds up and I spent more than I planned on as it is. I really like everything I got though and it's colors that I think are really wearable for work or play. There are a bunch of new collections coming out in the next few weeks from MAC, but I think this will be my main purchase. I think MAC puts out too many collections too close together and for junkies like me it's hard to keep up sometimes. I try to research the collections before they come out and then figure out what I want. I make a list and then go see the collection in person. There are usually good swatches of new collections on the web, but seeing in person and trying the color before you buy is always the best bet. I usually only online for things I need to refill or brushes and stuff since the closest MAC pro store is downtown Chicago. So let me know if you get anything from this collection and if you love it?!

Spring Colour Forecast Blush Ombre

Azale Blossom. These blushes are really pretty! Something new from MAC. They are tri-colored blushes that go from light to dark.
