Natural Eye Palette- Too Faced

If you are just starting out with makeup and you really prefer a natural looking eye, then this is the palette for you.  This palette has 3 lid colors, 3 crease, and 3 outer V colors. Of course, you can mix them up and create a unique makeup look just for you. It also has 3 cards inside to show you the colors they suggest to create a look and the steps to take.  I love this palette because the colors are so beautiful and they are everyday wearable colors. It is pricier than drugstore but it will last you forever and the quality is amazing.
This palette can be purchased at Ulta or online.

With love,

Jenn

Mac Paint Pots versus Maybelline 24-hour Color Tattoo

Hello my fellow makeup loves!

I wanted to share my opinion on the Mac paint pot and the Maybelline 24-hour Color Tattoo eye shadows.  I have used and loved the Mac paint pots for years. They have a lot of colors to choose from and they cost around $17.50 each. The paint pots are used as a base for your eye shadows, they give them something to stick to. They come in a pretty good color selection and will last a really long time. They help your eye shadow stay on all day and help prevent creasing. My favorite paint pot colors are painterly and bare study.



I have recently purchased the new Maybelline 24-hour Color tattoos and I have to say I am in love. The Color Tattoos come in some pretty great shades. They can be used as a base for your eye shadows, help give your e/s a pop when you apply over them. They can be worn by themselves also. They do not budge or crease. They run about $6.99 each. The only issue I have is that while they have a good color selection they don't have those skin tones color options. I would like to see some more neutrals in their line. 

In my opinion, you can not beat the quality and the price of the Maybelline color tattoos. I would say it is definitely worth the $6.99!!
