Green and Gold Sugarpill Shadow look

So...I am in LOVEEEEE with Sugarpill Cosmetics! Especially the Goldilux Pigment....ZOMG the color payout is A-MAZ-ING!!!! So I wanted to create a look using it and the green (Midori) and white (Tako) from Sugarpill's Sweet Heart palette (WHICH I LOVEEEE ALSO!)

Hope you enjoy! Subscribe if you like this look :)


After applying primer on my eyelids...I applied tako under my brow as a highlight























 Next I used Goldilux loose shadow pigment to the 2/3rds of my lid up to the crease. (I put loose powder under my eyelids to catch the fallout from the pigment.)




















 I then took Midori from the Sweet Heart Sugarpill Quad Palette and applied it at the out V part of my eyelid and blended it with the gold and in the crease towards the tear duct.




















 I used Crush from Sigma to fill in my eyebrows.





















 Next I used Inglot's Waterproof gel eyeliner in #77 (black) and made an exaggerated winged line and extended it out.


On the top and bottom waterline and I used KIKO 8hr pencil eyeshadow.















 I applied Dreamy false lashes from Sugarpill and applied mascara lightly under to blend my lashes with the false lashes. Then applied mascara on my bottom lashes.



















My finished Saturday look....



Hope you enjoyed! If you have any questions or wanna see other color combinations...leave a comment!!!!

THANK YOU NAIMIE'S BEAUTY CENTER!

So yesterday I went to visit my friend in North Hollywood. We decided to go visit Naimie's Beauty Center to check it out. I have ordered from them online before but never to the store. So we get to the store and its sooooo cool! 2 story building...first floor is wigs and hair stuff...2nd story is makeup, skin care and hair care products. A girl walks up to us to help so I asked her if I needed a makeup artist card to purchase products...she got confused and thought I asked if needed a makeup artist card for a discount on products and then sent me to talk to a guy downstairs about getting a Pro Card. I went downstairs and talked to the guy, showed him my blog, and my eyeshadow looks on facebook and he signed me up for a Pro Makeup card! OMG YIPPEEEEEEEE....this was a big deal for me...because it allowed me to get products at a discount...I can now start building my kit for doing other peoples makeup without having to use my personal collection. So this blog is dedicated to the products that I purchased there!


I got these empty stackable containers to keep pigments/glitter in when I travel


Shadow Shields...to protect against eyeshadow fallout 


St. Tropez Gradual Tan Moisturizing Lotion...hopefully I'll get some color!


My New NARS duo shadow in Brumes...its a dark purple/brown with a black/silver shimmer <3333



AHHHHH I am super excited about this! It is a 12 shade Ben Nye Matte Foundation palette. I can finally do more makeup for people using these shades! 


Organic Keratin Mask to help keep my Ombre in tip top shape!



Organic Leave in Conditioner to keep my hair healthy!


These are super affordable, works great makeup remover wipes...the girl helping us had these and they worked so well I needed to buy 2 packs of them! :)


I'm excited to try this on my face...to get that summer glow...safely ;)



My New Cover FX Cream Foundation/Concealer in one in the shade C50...amazing coverage and the results are amazing! My skin looked flawless! I can't wait to use this again!



I would say I did a good amount of damage for my first Pro Card purchase! I saved over $68...so I was happy! AND I will be back...maybe after next pay day ;)

If you have any questions about anything here...leave a comment :)


Hope you enjoyed!

Summer Shimmer, Eye Shadow look using ELF 32 color Palette







   
 Golden Summer Shimmery eyes

I wanted to try out the ELF 32 color palette for a daily look so this is what I came up with.

I applied Urban Decay Primer Potion under my eyeshadow to prevent creasing, and applied pressed powder on top of that to set it.

 Highlight (Under brow color)
Using the Sigma E60 brush I applied the shadow under my eyebrow
Eyeshadow under eyebrow




 Copper color on the lid
 Using the Sigma E55 I applied the copper color all over the lid
a
Gold inner corner
Using the Sigma E30 brush I applied the gold in the inner corner of the eye and underneath the bottom lash line (sorry for the bad pic)
 Dark brown to outer corner (V) of eyelid
 Using the Designer Tools 700P-12 brush I took the dark brown and blended the dark brown into the V corner of the outer lid...make sure to blend well.
 Using crown's eyebrow brush, I brushed them in the direction I wanted
 Brown eyeshadow to fill in eyebrows
 Using an angled stiff brush I lightly applied the shadow to fill in the brows
 Dark brown shadow as eyeliner (MAC Suspicious)
 Using the Sigma E65 brush push the shadow along the top lash line.
Curl lashes for 10 seconds each eye
I ALWAYS apply mascara primer (MAC Prep & Prime)


















I applied 2 coats of black mascara (KIKO Curling Mascara) Also apply 1 coat along bottom lashes.
















 After 1 coat of mascara

After 2 coats of mascara



Both Eyes


Finished Look



I wore this look for a good 8hrs or so...it didn't crease, but the problems I found with the ELF shadows is that when you apply them there is some fallout (when the shadow falls onto your face) and that there is too much glitter in the shimmer shadows. It won't prevent me from using them again of course, but I will put some loose powder under my eyes next time to prevent the fallout from staying on my face.

Hope you enjoyed this, try it on yourself...its easy peezy lemon squeezy :)

Neon lights and love,
Emily
