Queen Of Blending Inspired

While I was cleaning my dresser and watching Queen Of Blending on youtube I got inspired by her amazing skills and decided to play. I decided to take inspiration from her Orange, Red, and Purple Cut Crease look. I am so below her level of expertise, especially on lashes and cut creases, but I really wanted to try. I even went for the huge lashes!!! I need extra practice on lashes before Halloween, so this was a great opportunity.

I know with some more practice this could come out better, and I hope to do this look again in the future, but for now I hope you guys enjoy my attempt to recreate QOB's look.

Base Coat I used Orly's Bonder

Kate Moss for Rimmel London Limited Edition Long Lasting Finish Lipstick #4 Swatch

Hello lovelies!Today I took a little trip to Target to purchase some Tea Tree Oil, and like always I took a little pit stop to the make up department. I rarely look at Rimmel products, but today I decided to take a peek to see if I could find anything nice. And I bumped into Kate Moss' Rimmel London Long Lasting Finish Lipstick collection. I had heard a lot about this collection, but never paid much attention to the hype. The colors didn't really attract my attention, except for one entitled number #4. 
It's a deep plum almost true purple. I can't believe I found a color like this at the drug store. The only places I ever see a deep purple like this is a high end counters. But, I'll stop talking and let you take a look!


 First of all let's take a look at this super slick packaging. I excepted such chic-ness from someone like Kate. I love the slick black almost leather-black packaging.

Review: Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo by Eyestudio

Funny story; In the morning I headed to CVS to go see the doctor at the clinic there and decided to walk around the store are I waited. And I walked right by these babies as they where putting them on the shelf. I was intrigued to to say the least, so I decided to purchase three colours on a whim. 

The Color Tattoo is basically a cream eyeshadow, but it's consistency reminds me of a gel liner. They also remind me a bit of Mac's paint pots. They come in about 10 different colours ranging from neutral browns, taupes, black, to red, green, gold and orange (yes, orange). 
At my local CVS they where 6.99 each, and you're paying for .14oz of product. compared to the 17.50 you would pay for .17 oz for a Paint Pot. You do get the ounces more product in the paint pot, but you'd have to pay 10 more dollars for that. 

The basic concept of the cream shadows is that they will be last 24 hours without budging or losing it's vibrancy. No offense, but with the bad rap that Maybelline has had with their past cream shadows I was a bit scared to go ahead and purchase them, but I decided to give them a chance. 

20 Painted Purple
Unlike in the pictures this is a very vibrant purple with small, and I mean small magenta shimmers.
