Hey all! I have been sick for long time, yesterday I had an appointment with my coach at school, I was soooo damn nervous! Ofcourse my make-up suffered from that...

Couldn't get my liner straight to save my life, haha

I used my new Velvet Mousse E/s from Yves Rocher, they feel great and the colors are cute but 04 Prune Améthist doesn't look as purple/Prume as I expected. I did not use a base for this, I thought the colors might just slide off of it.. (I usely use vaseline, I also have a 'real' e/s bae though) Does anyone have some pointers on working with mousse e/s? I ended up adding some powder e/s to get more color.

Those colors are pretty! I'm not sure how the formula for those eyeshadows works but you could try layering them to get a stronger color payoff. Apply a base, then a thin layer of the e/s and wait for it to set and then apply another thin layer and keep going until you get the color you want. Maybe that would work! Or you could use powder shadows in the same color over the mousse ones to get the color to show up a little better. I hope that helps!
