Hey everyone! So I did this look like a week ago but i'm barely getting to post this lol! I hope you guys enjoy. I know it's not the exact same everything but I think I got pretty close lol ;D
The first is a light blue smokey eye I did a few days ago and I really love :) I didn't film this but let me know if you would like to see a tutorial :)
And here are so late Halloween pictures! My hubby and I didn't dress up this year :( so I decided to do some makeup lol. I did half sugar skull on me and the joker makeup on him hehe.
A few days before Halloween I decided just to try my first sugar skull and here's the outcome...
It was my first attempt at this and I wish I did a few things different haha.
Hey everyone! I got more lashes sent to me from kkcenterhk.com and I have a review!
I got 2 styles sent to me. The first one was ES 10 pack in style A855. These were more naturally and very pretty. They are a little bit wispy. USD 16.00 If you want to check them out on the website, click here.
And the second one was a set of black feather lashes in style FE130. Sorry, in the video I said that they were the fang yang brand... um ya no, it was just labeled on there web site as feather lashes with the style number. Click here to see them on the website.
Please watch the video for more info. and the full review!! :D
Now for pictures :)
Here are the ES A855
I am still wearing them in this last pic but for some reason they looked more full when I wore nude lips instead of a red, coraly color of lipstick.
Now the feather lashes...
These ones were so fun to play around with :)
I'm planning on doing a dark Halloween look with them soon!

So NOW I'm going to pick some bloggers I love. I'm not going to pick all 15 just because I haven't been on blogger recently and haven't been reading up on everyones blogs :(
Hey ladies!! I wanted to share this tutorial with guys I filmed I little while back but never got around to posting it. I was inspired by Angelina Jolies makeup in "The Tourist" I know it's not spot on and I didn't want it to be that way because I wanted to make it my own :)
Hey ladies!! So I was inspired to do this post after one of my fellow bloggers Candy from Curves Ahead Makeup did a "Dress to Impress" Challenge on her blog using belts!! So here is my outfit...
When I got it in the mail it was damage free, wrapped in bubble wrap multiple times, and absolutely nothing was broke!
It has a cute cover made to look like the front of a magazine :)
I thought it was going to be larger and I think it was because the front is supposed to look like a cover of a magazine and magazines are usually larger.
The inside cover tells you how to apply your eye shadow to define your eyes and the other side holds the 12 shadows and 2 blushes. It also comes with a 2 sided brush and a small mirror at the bottom.
The back of the kit shows the other makeup kit colors; Green, Blue and Gold other than purple. It also reads the ingredients.
Here's a close up on some shadows and blushes
I didn't swatch them all but here is a close up on one of the purples.
I usually like to use the product for 2 weeks before doing a review on it just to make sure I have a full opinion :)
First, I just want to say all of the shadows are shimmer! So if you don't like shimmer shadows, stear clear! I personally don't mind them but I tend to go for more mattes with a small amount of shimmer.
This kit is labeled as 'Purple' but it only has 3 purple if you consider maroon a purple :P I guess I was just expecting a full palette of purples. The rest of the colors are on the cooler side and go well with the shades of purples it has. Pretty much all of the shadows are pigmented especially the silvers and purples, but the lighter colors are not so much.
The blushes are soft and satiny and are super pigmented!! I love the light peachy one but the other is a bright pink and I think would go well with more editorial looks.
The brush has a sponge on one end and hard bristles on the other so I probably won't be using it as much :/ but if you love the sponges then go for it!
Pros: Comes with 12 beautiful shimmer shades, has 2 pretty pigmented blushes, comes in a cute compact 'magazine' with magnets to help it it keep closed securely, has a reasonable sized mirror for your eye makeup, and a reasonable price.
Cons: Not a lot of purple shades, lighter shades are not as pigmented as the darker ones, brush is not the best quality, no warm shades.
Would I recommend it??? Yes. What I recommend about it though is the colors and how pigmented they are, but not about the color 'purple'. It is also such a cute look to it, it looks like a magazine!
Here's a vid. on an eye look I did using the few purples it had.
Hey girlies!!! I hope everyone is doing great and are having a good summer!
I just want to apologize for being so absent like in commenting on your blogs and commenting back AND posting! We still do not have any internet and the only time I can get on is if I can hurry and run over to my moms house :/ So when I do get on it's in a rush because my kids are awake and busy hehe.
But I have a review for you all!
I was sent this eye shadow palette for me to review by KKcenterhk.com
Its called the:ES Brand 15 Color Shimmer Eyeshadow Make Up Palette - Earth Tone
Their description on the website:
Make Up Set Extremely Portable.
100% New, Never Been Used
Case Is Black
15 Color Shimmer Eyeshadow Make Up Palette - Earth Tone
Suitable For All Day & Night Make Up
Size : 156mm X 105mm X 17mm
Can Be Used Party Or Professional Make Up
USD: $11.97
As always, I am impressed by their packaging. They wrap all of their eyeshadow palettes in layers of bubble wrap and they always arrive safely with no damage at all. It came in a small box labled ES on the front, and the back is name of ingredients but when you open it up, the palette it self does not have a name nor ingrediants. It's a matte black case about the size of my hand, here's a picture
It's a decent size and very portable.
Now for the shadows! First of all, I am a 'natural shadow fan' I LOVE them. I feel like my eyes can't hold a lot of bright colors as well as other women can so I tend to steer towards the earth tones. When I opened the palette I found 15 GORGEOUS colors of earth tone shadows. Most of the shadows are shimmery or sheen and two of the browns are matte. The palette has colors that I have been looking for but it just seems I couldn't find them.
Some of my favorite out of the palette has to be the peaches and golds. I have been wearings these shadows on my eyes for about a week. Some others I adore are the 2 purples it has. The darker one has specks of gold in it and looks AMAZING on!
As far as the quality of the eye shadows go I was VERY impressed. Even the matte shadow browns go on well. They seem to be packed down well. I have had problems with inexpensive palettes that their eyeshadows fall apart so easy. The case looks so durable and professional. I am deffinetly going to be bringing this to a photoshoot I am going to be helping with!

Pros: Great price, portable, matte case, pigmented eyeshadows, variety of colors, 15 eye shadows.
Cons: The only one I can really think of is that it doesn't have bright eyeshadows, but you should expect it from a palette labeled with 'earth tone' :P or the size of the palette was smaller than I thought...
Would I recomend this?? For sure. I have been going to this palette EVERY single day for the past 2 weeks. NO lie. If you are a natural eye shadow freak like me, I would def. get my hands on this. It's great quality for a cheap price.
Here's a video on a look I did with some of the peach and gold colors I was talking about:
I hope you guys enjoyed! Thanks Maggie for sending me another great product.
