Random makeup post

After getting my makeup done by many, MANY makeup artists for proms and disliking all of them, I figured that I would do it myself for the last one that I went to. I wanted something simple and easy since I only had a couple of hours to get ready (my then boyfriend was a year younger than me and I had just started my second semester of college). I opted out on the Slimshine and used an inexpensive pair of lashes instead and I absolutely loved the look!

I've been using the same eyeshadow combination ever since and ironically, I'm still using the same eyeshadows (it's been 2 years since I bought them and only now am I restocking on Shroom). I use MAC's Yogurt as a base, so that Shroom stands out more since it tends to melt away by the end of the day when used by itself. I'm definitely not a makeup guru, but I find that the combination helps me look less tired. Darker eye makeup tends to emphasize my dark circles and bags, but I would love to emulate Kim Kardashian's smokey eye look!

I've been looking for something to shake things up in my blah makeup collection and I found this:

Too Faced Glamour Dust in Nude Beam! A couple of years ago, MAC had a holiday campaign that included a set of 4 vials of glitter that I wanted ever so badly, but after sleeping on it, I figured it wasn't worth buying a whole set if I only wanted one of them. Since then, I've been on the look-out for eyeshadows that were slightly glittery, but nothing really appealed to me. Luckily, my patience has finally paid off! ^__^

Hopefully I'll be getting some retail therapy in this weekend! More importantly, I hope that Sephora will have it in stock!!
