For Christmas Eve, I went to a party at my friend’s house with a bunch of my friends. I made lots of red velvet chocolate chip cookies. I played in my eye shadows, a LOT, for this look. Like, I used a million different shadows, all layered, to try and add extra dimension and depth in ways I don’t normally do. Unfortunately, the camera fell flat at actually picking up all the awesomeness. The following image is the only one that comes close to capturing the depth and shadows that were at play.
Shade descriptions:
Courtley Grey – cement grey (matte)
Fairy Lite – very pale ivory shimmer with opalescent pearl
Knight Divine – black with silver pearl (veluxe pearl)
Electra – silver with icy shimmer (frost)
Silver Ring – grey with silver sheen (veluxe pearl)
Vellum – pale white duochrome with violet-blue opalescent shimmer (frost)
Bustle – glistening peacock teal shining with duochrome blue and green
Calavera Cupcakes – glimmering metallic silver topped with sprinkles of vivid pink
Catrina Cabaret – Deep cool teal frolicks with a fun pink-purple highlight and sparkle.
Mischief Makers – a soft, pale satiny silver with a rainbow of sparkles.

Hello Cotton
Beaaauauuttttiful! I can tell from the closed-eye pictures that it’s more complex than the open-eye ones look, it drives me nuts when stuff looks bad in pictures but good on ><
Anastasia recently shared..Merry Christmas!
Yay thank you
Exactly what Ana said!
And love that necklace!
KittenMittons recently shared..Lovenote from a Fairy and and JOY!
Aww thanks Mindy! It was from Kelly
The UD Naked looks brighter & pinker here than it usually does … Mmmm, but the eyes! Matte cement grey doesn’t sound appealing at all, but you rock it!
Jean recently shared..If Nutella changed their name to Coco Butter or Chocolate Butter- sales would go through the roof
The matte cement grey was the base shade, and then I layered lots of colors on top of it, so it had shimmer and depth
It wasn’t matte and flat at all.
Also, I tried wearing Azalea Blue at first with this look and it was too bright, so I had to take it off and put on UD Naked. There was probably still a hint of hot pink on my lips, but I tried to take it all off before putting Naked on.
Yay awesome job girl !
