These lip creams are lightweight and nicely pigmented. The large color selection and price point are also a huge plus. My only quibble is the staying power. The formula seems to sit on top of my lips and is easily messed up at the slightest touch. :(

Forever 21 Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette
 The palette in this picture is my personal one because I didn't want to unpackage the one I brought for the winner. So don't worry, I'm not giving away anything used, lol.
Anastasia of Beverly Hill Brunette "Brows in Bloom Palette"
 This palette contains 2 brow powders, a highlight shade, brow wax and a stiff angled brush to apply it with. The colors in this pic look lighter than they do in person. The brow colors are a much deeper, richer brown irl.
NYX Blush in "Terracotta"
This blush is photographing more pink than bronze, but irl, its a earthy bronzy shade that I think will look good on just about any skintone.

Good Luck Again!

I've had this loose eyeshadow from NYX in Penny for years and loved the shimmery, rich color, but never knew how to use it. Well it appears I still don't know how to make it work for me.

Everything with this look turned into one big fail. I was going for a simple but still festive and shimmery look. This red however, was just too overpowering and made me look kinda sickly in person. My eyes were also irritated for some reason and wouldn't stop watering which led to my falsies not staying on because the glue couldn't dry. Ugh, it was such a mess every time I blinked the lashes came off!

The next time I use this color, I think I'll add some dark brown or even black to the outer corners to give it more depth and maybe some gold to the inner corner to make the red less overpowering. What do you guys think? I love the way this color looks in the jar and really want to put it to good use. Should I keep trying with this or is it time to just move on?
