Anyway, here's 2 looks! The 1st one was my first attempt using newly minted. My conclusion... gorgeous color but it wont blend for crap!! Seriously, i've never had such a hard time blending in my whole life!! I may give it another try but not in the near future, lol! I thought i'd post it anyway though... have any of you had as much trouble as me???

Anyway, the sencond look was just a simple green look. I've been tanning & i perfer either really bright, or really soft looks on tan skin. So, i really liked the softness that this look gave me

I just bought Newly Minted, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn't give me too much trouble!

Oh, don't worry about the blending. I wouldn't have even known if you hadn't said anything. Both are gorgeous looks. I really love the olive-y greens on you!

You did a good job with Newly Minted. I bought about 3 or 4 e/s from that collection and I agree that they are unblendable. It drives me nuts. I can't wait to see pics from the wedding. It cam so freaking fast.

You're wearing Newly Minted well because I think it's one of the Matte² shadows that was seriously botched. Heads should've rolled on that one.
