Urban Decay Naked-palette's brush

I found it to be quite horrible for eyeshadows.. But, today, I found a great way to use it! 

It's horribly stiff and just awkward to use with eyeshadows. 

It does work wonderfully with MAC paint pots! 

I used to apply them with my finger, but today I applied Painterly with this brush, and the result is awesome!

Haul, more blue and a little tip

Hey everyone! I don't know what has gotten into me, but I have really been liking blue eye shadows lately! I use them almost everyday.

I have a pinkish duocrome eye shadow on my lid. I have electric blue duocrome on the crease and above it. I have a dark midnight blue with golden glitter right in the crease in intensify the blue. Yellowish gold as a highlight.

I did a little shopping the other day and I got a new eye liner pencil. I'm in love! It's Lumene Natural Code Eye Dramatizer. So good on the waterline, it does not move.

Also I got two mineral powder blushes by Maybelline cause it was buy 2 Maybelline products for 15€.

I got 10 Topaz Rose (left) and 20 Moonlight Mauve (right). Topaz Rose is really pink. Really pink, perhaps like coral/orange pink. The Midnight Mauve looks a little brownish, at least the lid looks more brownish when it's right next to the Topaz Rose. Midnight Mauve is not really brown, I don't think. It seems a little more bluish pink. I see the colors that way, I don't know if you do.

Have you tried these blushes?

Quick tip! A good way of finding out whether you blend the eye shadows well is to take a picture, preferably with the cuisine-program in your camera. It works the best I think and it really shows if you don't blend well enough.

Pictures from the last two days

I had not been able to use my own computer until today and the computer I used for the last few days refused to work together with my camera. Therefore, uploading has been impossible. It sort of still is, since I can't access the internet with my computer. I had to move the pictures to my computer from my camera, then I had to move them with a USB stick to this computer and then cut them apart.

These two looks were what I had one yesterday and the day before. They're quite neutral looks, one a brown shade and the other a more purple one.

I just used a medium brown with a dark brown in the crease and lower lash line. Basic black eye liner and black mascara.

Quick tip! Using an eye shadow base is a very good idea! However, using too much of the eye shadow base is like not using any. It creases if there is too much of it! As you can see in the picture above, I used too much. I bought this eye shadow base a few days ago and I was probably using it for the second or third time.. I now know to use less... :D

In this look I had a gray-brown eye shadow on the lid. Purple and pink in the crease. Again, black eye liner and black mascara.


Stay tuned for Something blue... and a little smoky. :D
