Tropical

This is a very bright/fun look and it will lift anyone's spirits!
So what will we need and how do we complete this masterpiece?

Items:

~Mac products~
•239,217
•Chrome Yellow e/s

~The rest of the products~
•NYX Jumbo eye pencil in MILK
•Maybelline eye studio in Forest fury
•NYC eyeliner in Pearl Black

Step 1: Apply primer all over your eye. I chose NYX Jumbo eye pencil in MILK. Using my ring finger I spread the color out.

Step 2: Next I grabbed my 239 and I dipped the brush into MAC's Chrome Yellow. In a patting motion apply this color. It took me a couple of times to get the yellow this vibrant but if you don't want to 'waste' product you can pat the shade on once, it is still going to be pigmented. Be sure to pat the yellow on all over the lid area.

Step 3: Put your 239 brush down and now pick up your 239. In the Maybelline pallet in Forrest Fury there are 5 shades we are using the V shaped color or the 4th shade in the pallet. Swirl your 217 in the shadow pan and then in a back and forth motion blend in the green. Make sure to blend it into the yellow as well. On the top of the forest green apply a light lime color which is in the pallet. It is the 3rd shade go into the color and in a back and forth motion on top of the darker green blend it in.

Step 4: Last but not least line your eyes I chose to do a cat eye effect!

Mac Lipstick Review Swatch

Today I am going to swatch two of my mac lipsticks . First they are so great !


The Review
Today I am going to review and swatch two nude lipsticks by mac in Shy Girl and Angle . Shy Girl is more nude with some orange coral tones . Angle is a light pink nude .Shy Girl is a cremesheen , Angle is a Frost . Both have such nice pigment and are true to the color shown on the stick! I would said they both are in the range of pink or coral . Shy Girl is a bit more creamy but more matte than Angle as being more shiny .

Mac Lipglass and Cremesheen Glass Review Swatch

Today I am going to swatch my two Lip gloss's by Mac . Lets start with the review ! 


The review 
They are so smooth and they smell great . They smell like real sugar like perfume almost! I have Florabundance , it is a milky light pink . I also have a Cremesheen Glass in Richer,Lusher , it is a pink coral color. Mac has a wide range of color's . I think they are pigmented compared to the low end colors . They are almost like lipstick in a creamery glossy form! Florabundance can be paired with any look by the way so can Richer,Lusher . They Cremesheen has a bigger tube than the lipglass although they have the same amount of pigment .

  • Wide range of color

Tomorrow is going to be the vibrant colors , by the way this will be updated because on Wednesday I'm making an order on Mac , and part  3 will be dark colors!
Part One Review
All of the highlighter or lighter colors work great and are mostly shimmer colors . One of my favorite colors would have to be Rice Paper , although I thought it would be a little lighter than it was . Rice Paper has a really nice texture . Rice paper or Naked Lunch could be worn on the lid or brow bone or tear duct . Another color that would work great on purple shadows for a highlighter or in the inner corner would be Seedy Pearl . This is so pretty! This is a frost too . I am before I show you swatches going to list textures of what I am going to swatch okay ? Okay :D



  • Seedy Pearl - Frost  , it has and pinkish purple tint but is light
  • Naked Lunch- Frost , It is a light pink with nude undertones
  • Rice Paper- Frost , It is a nude color with very light shimmer 
  • Gesso - Matte , It may not be "light light " but it is a matte vivid white
  • Forgery- Lustre , it is a sparkle white with not a lot of color just sparkles !
