Oslo Cosmetics

 So I have recently come across this indie makeup company called Oslo Cosmetics. (http://oslocosmetics.storenvy.com) 

Oslo Cosmetics is defined as:

 " High quality, highly pigmented, unique colors, and unique blends for a very unique you."

They are 100% Vegan and Handmade

They put primer into there cosmetics that's why the look "clumpy"

It does kind of make it hard to work with until you get used to it. They also sell pressed eyeshadows and I think I am going to try those. They look like they are highly pigments, but easier to use. 

I like that the sell "minis" in jars. I am not a fan of the sample baggies

I do wish that they had sifters on top though.

They also kinda of have a smell to them. I am thinking it might be the primer in them, but it is just different.

Their prices are as followed

Mini's: $3.60

Full Loose Shadows: $5.50

Pressed Shadows: $6.00

Pressed Shadow in Jar: $8.00

They are worth a try. I would say if you are a beginner you might want to try the pressed eyeshadow. Like I said the loose are a little hard to work with when you are new to the "clumpy" pre-primer shadows.

Rainy/Snowy Day in Iowa

So it is definitely starting to look/feel like fall in Iowa. It was raining and then it decided to snow. So with nothing better to do on a crappy day ( Although I secretly love snow) I have a eyeshadow look for you.

I just recently purchased these shadows from maddstylecosmetics.com when they were having this awesome buy 5/$20 and get a free eyeshadow sale. 

For this look I used MSC in:

Diamonds & Crossbones

Drunk on the Moon

and

Princess Peach

Sunset in Paradise

For this look I used Madd Style Cosmetics in:

Canary Wharf: Which is a matte yellow color

She Bop: This is a dark but intense pink with aqua glitter

Ecto Cooler: This is a Lime Green and I love it

Magic Carpet Ride:

Into The Sunset: 

Acid Bath: 

Best Time..Fall Time

Oh how I love love love Fall! Especially in Iowa. The nice cool weather, the beautiful scenery. Just everything about fall is amazing.

This look is brought to you be the use of Madd Style Cosmetics

The Masquerade: Is a nudeish pink packed with glitter

Birf'day Suit: Is a nude matte skin tone color

Tigers Blood: Is an orange-brownish/copper color

A Whole New World

So I was recently a part of an amazing gift exchange through elfster.com. 

My Elfie had purchased me an enormous amount of gifts. 

One of them being the Madd Style Cosmetics A Whole New World Collection & Box of Rain

So that in turns means a collaboration of the two :)

This look features two of the five colors in the collection

Those being:

Magic Carpet Ride

&

Into The Sunset

Then of course:

Box of Rain

I first prepped my eyes with Too Faced Shadow Insurance 

:Side Note: Being this is my first time ever using Too Faced Shadow Insurance

and I am in love. It works so well for me. It definitely makes my shadows last longer and stay in place.

I then placed my Maybelline 24hr color tattoo in too cool over that.

Next I added MSC Into the Sunset all over my lid

I then applied Magic Carpet Ride to create my outer V and into my crease as well as extending the color to my bottom lash line. 

Blending into; Into the Sunset

I then placed Box of Rain on my very outer lid and blended into; Into the Sunset to create the green

I then went back and packed Box of Rain back on the outer portion of my lid, because you lose some of the color blending it into; Into the Sunset

I added Into the Sunset to my first third of my bottom lash line blending into Magic Carpet Ride.

I then put a little bit of Box of Rain into the middle part of my lower lash line and blended it out.

I then added my liner and Big Fatty by Urban Decay as my mascara (also a new item).

Enjoy!

Singing the Blues

So I usually don't wear blues on my eyes. Not quite sure why because I think it turned out pretty well.

I reused the Wet n Wild Liquid Liner to try it again, and it just runs on me like crazy.

Although it might be because my allergies are acting up. 

I do like how Wet n Wild photographs though.

 It looks so much nicer then my Maybelline Crayon Liner.

This look is featuring all Madd Style Cosmetics

1. Spotted Elephant (this is a light silver color with aqua sparkles)

2. Are you my mummy (this is a light gray matte color)

3. King Oberon (this is a dark blue (not navy) color with sparkles)

4. Andtraste's Grace (this is a light blue with white sparkles)

I applied Spotted Elephant in the very inner corner of my eye

I then added Are you my mummy? to the rest of my lid blending into Spotted Elephant.

I then added Andtraste's Grace to my outer v blending into my crease and into Are you my mummy?

I then lightly added King Oberon on top of Andtraste's Grace and blended that loveliness all together

And that ladies and gents is how I completed this look.

Enjoy!
