Turn On as an eye shadow

I've been wanting to use Turn On as an eye shadow since I got it. Move over eye bright! Turn on looks so pretty as an eye shadow. I'm sorry I waited this long to wear it like this. It has a subtle sheen on the eye and really makes you look awake. I LOVE it!!!

Playing with Puppies

Three More looks with The Dream Sequence

I just couldn't stop using this palette. After using it almost everyday for a week or so I have to say that I still love these new eye shadows. They go on silky, they are belndable, they last all day. They also blend well with the loose minerals. The only slight problem I have had is that they cling to my brushes and I really have to work hard to get all the eye shadow off with a microfiber cloth. Overall I'm very glad I decided to try the Ready eye shadows.

I wanted to try doing a smoky eye with the darkest colour in the palette, nightcap. I think nightcap might look too bruise-ish on some skin tones but when you add some black to it, or another dark pruple I think it looks pretty.

EYES:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radiance all over,
500 Thread count under brow,
Nightcap lash into crease on outer 3/4 of eye,
Romp on inner 1/4,
Lucky Penny in V,
Onyx wet lined on top,
mascara.


CHEEKS: Floret
LIPS:Bavarian Creme

 

I'd been catching up on Private Practice (the TV show) and this look was inspired by the makeup on the show. The women on the show often wear a brown base with a luminous lid colour and dark liner. The texture of Romp is perfect for recreating this look.

EYES:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radiance all over,
500 Thread count under brow,
Night Owl in crease,
Romp lash to crease,
Congac in V and outer corner,
Bark wet lined on top,
mascara.


LIPS: Tarte Hope with Pretty Amazing Flair over it

I finally got to see the movie "The Help" and this look was inspired by the makeup in the movie. There were lots of soft looks with bright coloured eye liner smudged into darker liner. I really like the effect.

EYES:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radiance all over,
500 Thread Count lash to brow and more heavily lash to crease,
