Mermaid Look (BH COSMETICS 70'S PALLETE) + STEPS *ALL PRODUCTS USED ALL UNDER 20!*

                                         

                                                           My Mermaid Inspired look

I was inspired to do this look here by watching a random youtube makeup tutorial of Kat Von D she used a mint green and purples and I thought those colors looked pretty awesome with each other so decided to try my own makeup look.

So lets start

First I started off with a eyeshadow base and when using colored eyeshadow  you want to use a white primer which will really make your eyeshadows POP! I am using one of my all time favorite products that you can use for multiple uses NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in the Shade MILK

                                 

These are the 3 colors I used for this look. Using the nice shimmer purple (MIDDLE) I applied it to my crease using a blending brush. I always used to apply my eyeshadow first on the lid then using a secondary color I'd blend it out, I found through applying the crease color first is a lot easier and it blends to me much better. 

After blending out the shimmery purple I applied the mint green (for some reason doesn't look mint in the photo) with a regular eyeshadow brush to my lid patting it on gently so the color would stick while patting it in it seemed to start to blend with the purple fairly well. 

My last step for eyeshadow was applying the dark greyish purple (LEFT) to my outer v with a blending brush and blended it into the previous colors. I find it easiest for me to pat a little bit of the color to the outer v and then blending it with the other colors. And with the same color I used a small precision brush and added it to my bottom lash line. 

Moving on to eyeliner I did a simple winged liner for the look using my ELF Waterproof Eyeliner Pen

Since I was doing a cat eye with eyeliner I thought what better mascara is there to use the Maybelline

Colossal Cat Eye Mascara. After curling my lashes, I applied a few coats of that mascara.

Second to last step using a small precision brush I used my Covergirl single shadow (I've seen different names so I don't know what to call it, but the number is 350) in the corner of my eye as a highlight, I tend use this shadow as my highlight all the time. 

My last step I used my ELF Liquid Liner in Stardust in my inner corner on top of the Covergirl shadow to give it some glitter :)

                                                      And here is the finished look

Thanks for reading! <3  Please don't mind my terrible nails I tried to support the giants and it was a total fail! lol

Small Ulta Haul

Hello everyone its me again and I am here with a small little haul from Ulta and at the time I had bought all of these items all Neutrogena, L'oreal and NYX products were 40% off so of course I had buy some stuff not much sadly but here is what I had purchased. (And yes some pictures have my tumblr name in them so they don't get stolen)

I have heard only but great reviews on this time overtime so I had to get it. Usually 9 dollars and I got it for 5 something. I tried it the other day and the brow pencil side seemed to fill in my brows pretty well (yet then again it was my first time using an eyebrow pencil) and the other side you use under your brow which makes a nice highlight under the brow and made the arch of the brow much more precise.

I needed a new concealer so I bought this one, I have yet to use it. I forgot the prices. 

Again I have heard only but great things about this mascara and it is usually like 7 something I believe, I don't know, and I got it for only 4 something. I tried it for the first time and I do love it. I can't tell if I like it better the the rocket mascara.

I also bought another eyebrow pencil and this one has a small brush that makes it blend and not be so harsh. It worked okay but I don't know if I am too keen on it yet.

Of course I needed a new sharpener for my jumbo eye pencils etc.

This was a cute pink and in the bottom picture you can see on the swatches it 

doesn't have hardly and color and it is too sheer for my liking.

I was in need of a nude lip stick and again in the swatches and I wanted a nude one and you can tell in the swatches it doesn't really appear too nude, it looks more orange then anything. I still will wear it though, I don't have a orangeish color./ 

I have been dying to try a matte lipstick of NYX's and I picked out this pale pink, its cute.

The swatches

Thank you all for checking it out, talk to you all later :)
