Mean Green EOTD

Decided to do the dark contour colour higher... not sure of it though but it makes the look more meaner looking.

Quick MAC Club EOTD

So I tried to do this in different angles to show the colour off as best as I can, the application isn't as good...I was rushed this morning!

Shadows Used- MAC Club, MAC Phloof!, Sleek Nightlife and Bloom Eskimo

About Face Cosmetics (AKA) The She Space

I've been eyeing up these mineral shadows for a long time now, the vast colour range and naming just gets me and I just want them all. I also got the news that the company is closing down and put all the eye pigments on clearance for only $2.50 USD each which is around £1.64 GBP.
So I knew I had to get in there as it will be my last chance!
Now this did take well over a month to receive but I know that About Face is a very small company and are getting large volume of orders.
I have to also mention that Heather who made all of this, kept me updated with my order and queries and definitely comes across as a very sweet lady.


Now I purchased some of the standard shadows and a few from the StoryPeople collection.
As I took the picture I realized that I missed out one of the shadows I purchased which is 'Twisted Physic' so I promise I'll do a swatch in another post.
These mineral shadows aren't the softest but are not at the least gritty either, they're easy enough to blend and have a superior finish and definitely have very decent and build able pigment. The swatches I did were just one swipe!
My favourite that I have has to be 'Gothic Glamour' it's not just the name of course, it's just a beautiful rich colour which is described as a 'Blackened Pewter Shimmer' it has a deep cloudy brown tone to it that just kicks off with a full blasted iridescent shimmer and if you don't own it yet I totally recommend you do and quick at that as well, since it may be gone forever. :(

Overall I definitely love all these shadows and definitely getting more and more into the loose eyeshadow.

Yay! 1st of October, ok it's not good because Britain isn't getting cold yet...not many leaves aren't even falling off the trees...

Anyway all the shadows used are from the Claire's palette from my previous post.
It looks much brighter in real life though.

The ouch thing? Well It all happened when I was opening a new cutlery set, half my thumb nail completely tore off.
Below is my thumb nail on the other hand, the one that died was a little longer than this nail.

Now if you're squeamish do not click the picture down below, it's quite gross and yes it doesn't look like my nails will be painted for a while. Nail polish is China Glaze - He's Going In Circles.

MAC Club Eyeshadow

Now this one looks like a boring everyday shade which it isn't the slightest. It's extremely hard to capture the uniqueness of it.
MAC's description of this is a 'Muted reddish brown duochrome* with green opalescent shimmer (Satin)' Which I think is very accurate. It's like a grey dull brown has been spiced up in a new light. It can look cool in one light but warm in another, with the light mermaid green flashing in certain angles. The overall finish is pearl like. I also think it's very distinctive, I can usually tell if someone is wearing it in an eye look without looking at what they've used.

The texture is very soft and pigmented. It's also in their permanent line and will hopefully never be discontinued.

I really need to do a EOTD to hopefully show it up better.
How do you feel about MAC Club? Want to try it, love it or hate it?

Mermaid EOTD & NOTD

Shadows Used- Bloom Eskimo, Cover Girl Shimmering Onyx, GOSH Single 282, Barry M LE Marine.




BYS Nail Enamel in Mint Ice - This is about 3 coats and really sorry for the sloppy application, sometimes it's good other times it's just plain bad ha.

Barry M Get The Look Gift Sets

So I got these at Superdrug at half price, they're usually £9.95 each and are up on the Barry M site. So do still look out for these when you go to Superdrug. They each contain two limited edition Dazzle Dusts and are full sized! :)



Pink- Two Dazzle Dusts, a Fine Glitter Dust and a nice quality brush.

Candy Floss - Dead on name and extremely pigmented. A Candy Floss pink with gorgeous shimmered glow to it.

Berry Pink- A beautiful deep pigmented raspberry.

Violet Star- Which is the 'Fine Glitter Dust' and a violet, there isn't a lot of pigment in this but has the finest glitter within.



Green- Two Dazzle Dust and a Glitter Liquid Liner

Storm Cloud- Very pigmented deep navy metallic blue with lighter blue iridescence.

Green Apple- A sour green but doesn't seem to be as pigmented as others, I reckon it just needs a heavier application, which I didn't do in the swatches.

Glitter Liquid Liner in 07 Gold- More like a green gold and I didn't know Barry M's glitters were this nice!
