Sparkly Purple Eye with a Pop of Mint

Since getting the Galaxy Chic palette I finally have some greens and blues to play with so I took today as an opportunity to try some of them out.  I was wearing a green cardigan with a light purple scarf so I did my eyes to match!  I'm usually not a fan of the bright color under the eye look but I think the pop of mint works for me. 

To get this look I put Eclipse from Bh cosmetics Galaxy chic palette in my crease.  Then I patted Stila's foil finish eye shadow in Metallic Violet on my lid.  I lined my upper lid with Eclipse and the lower with Comet from the same palette.  Finished with Bare Minerals Lash Domination Mascara

I am seriously loving this look.  Its interesting while not being over the top.  I think it makes my eyes look huge and adorable as well so that's always a plus.  On my lips I'm wearing Bare Minerals Speak your Mind because I'm obsessed with it.

Have a rat-tastic day! <3__)~

Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow in Metallic Violet

Today I wanted to share with you all the awesomeness that is Stila's foil eye shadow. I have metallic violet and oh my wow is it amazing.

 

It comes with a liquid primer and a tray to mix the shadow and primer together.  I've found that adding the absolutely smallest amount of primer possible is best.  Any more than a drop per scoop makes it too sheer and you won't get the foil like effect.

All you do is kinda stick a finger in there and scoop a little bit out, mix it with the primer, and then dab it on with your finger.

It can be worn by itself but I like putting it over my eye shadows. Here is a picture of my make up before and then after I added the foil.

It is so freaking pretty in person, I could simply not capture its sparkly glory on camera. :(

And finally me making a stupid face.  While I think this eye shadow is neat I don't think I would get another one.  They are quite expensive the only reason I have this one is because I received it as a gift. If you've got the money I'd definitely recommend picking one or two up.  On my lips I'm wearing Mary Kay At Play Jelly Lip Gloss in Crushed Plum.
