MAC Eye Look - Teal/Green

Here's just a random eye look that I liked one day.

This was done using Teal Appeal and Shock Factor from MAC. These shadows were okay, I definitely needed a sticky base. Teal Appeal was a lot better than Shock Factor.

I also used my Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper - my main bitch.

I believe the inner corner is one of the loose duo chromes from Make Up Geek. Sugar Rush, I think? Or it could have been a Make Up For Ever pigment but ya know, whatever. Sugarpill's Lumi would be the best one for this though! But it's still in storage.

Also, I think I used Urban Decay's Mars Eyeliner on the bottom lash line. Anastasia Darkside Waterproof Eye Pencil to tightline.

I have to laugh, the picture using flash just goes to show how hairy my brows actually are, even though I am convinced my brow hairs are invisible. Plus glittery fallout! Which I don't mind, personally.

July/August 2016 Empties!

Holy late post, but I wanted to get this up before the end of September ;]

I don't think I'll go as in depth with these empties as I like to, just skim over what's worth it or what sucked.


Lots of masks! The Avocado Sheet Mask from Sephora is AMAZING. That sample of Dior Dream Skin? Awful. That Tatcha sample of the Balanced Pore Perfecting Water Gel was insanely good. I got a few uses out of the sample but after the first use, I ordered a bottle of it right away. That Jack Black Sun Guard is hands down the best sunscreen I've ever used and I've only been able to find it online! Already ordered another bottle. It lasted forever, like, a weekend in Vegas passed around between me, Sean and my cousin. Smells amazing, doesn't feel greasy as shit, SO GOOD. GO GET SOME. Also, The Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water convinced me that Bioderma is my shit, followed by Simple. This one just burned my eyeballs. 


Loved that little sample of Buttercup Shampoo from Fortune Cookie Soap. Love my Overtone Vibrant Purple Conditioner. Not a fan of the Joico hair care.... Trying to use up the rest of what I have. Also I got those L'Oreal Extraordinary Oil Shampoo & Conditioner from an Influenster. I don't know that I'll buy these but they were actually really nice! 


That Method Rebecca Atwood Hand Soap in Herb Garden was nice, smelled a little like basil & weed, but it was alright. The Shiseido Facial Cottons are amazing. Dial Soap from when I got a new tattoo! Pure Seduction perfume from Victoria's Secret. Not my favorite but a good, safe fragrance for me. And Systane Eye Drops. Unsure why I put them in my empties but hey, they're great. 


Lots of candles! Definitely was getting in the Fall mood early. Bath & Body Works will forever get my moneys with peach scents, like Georgia Peach & the Golden Peach Sparkle Wallflower. Obviously I love Pumpkin Apple & Pumpkin Fireside [SO GOOD]. Vampire Blood was a nice scent, cute packaging! Voluspa Saijo Persimmon is my favorite scent ever, which I can NEVER find except for online, but it smells 100% exactly like the Volcano candles Anthropologie sells. So I will never run out. The Voluspa ones burn better than Volcano in my opinion though. And up at the top there is a candle in the scent Black Flame Candle from Macabre Scents on Etsy! IT SMELLED SO GOOD. I want to order more of them. 


More Fortune Cookie Soap products! Polyjuice Potion is my favorite scent of theirs, so I used up a Sugar Scrub. They had a Finding Nemo themed box and the Jelly Man Jelly Soap was so fun, smelled almost like Polyjuice Potion [fruity, a little tropical] and the color of the jelly was SO cool! A couple of Witch Baby Soap Bath Bombs that correspond with the full moons. Don't Rain On My Parade Shower Gel from Lush was nice. Blueberry & violet in scent, but I did get a little sick of it toward the end. And a wonderful Blue Cornmeal & Sea Salt Body Scrub from Growing Blue Flowers. One of the best body scrubs I've ever used! It's nice because it's super scrubby, unscented so you can customize it if you want oils or anything and I felt like it lasted a long time because it's not a wet scrub. It's dry and I would mix it with body wash or body oil. Also this company is a local one so I love supporting the woman that runs it and creates these products! [Her natural Bug Repellent Spray is amazing.]


Was definitely impressed with the makeup I used up lately. Obviously I loved the Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation. I scraped that bottle for sure! I used Shade 2. The Wet n Wild Setting Spray is actually amazing. And for that price? Hell yeah. That sample of the Hourglass Ambient Primer in Mood Light was nice! I may buy a full size. Maybelline Lash Sensational is one of my favorite mascaras ever. Finally used up my Dior Lash Maximizer, loved it. Also was super impressed with this Boscia White Charcoal Mattifying Makeup Setting Spray. Smelled awesome, felt great, will repurchase. Super pissed off at that MAC Eyeliner.... it dried up and was so hard to use, so I'm just getting rid of it [aka hoarding it incase I can Back 2 MAC it, anyone know?]


Anywho, what did you use up lately?
I'll be back with my September empties in no time. ;]
