Please excuse the fact that right now I am using a camera phone to take pics, so they're not that great. And my terrible hair... its 4 am, I had a miterm I needed to study for, and am too stressed to sleep LOL. Okay, so I just got the Paula Dorf "Once Upon a Dream" eye kit, and I am in LOVE.

The eye kit itself... hopefully seeing this will give you a better idea of what the colors on my eyes *should* look like. Here is what I did with it:
Lightest color (called Heavenly), as a wash/base all over the eyelid follow by the second color, a light blue called nymph, on the eyelids. The middle color which goes on me like a tropical green/blue (my fave of the five) called Dreamboat is in the crease and on my lower lashline, with the lighter purple, amethyst on the outer v. I lined my top eyelids with the darker purple (Sea Cruze), used dry. Viola, a gorgeous look. I wish my phone camera could do it justice. On my lashes is my staple Chanel Brown Mascara (cils a cils).

For the rest of my face, I tried the sample I got of the Lola cosmetics sheer foundation from sephora in bisque. Color was perfect, but I wouldn't recommend it. It smells bad and does to little to be worth the price. Also, my *fave* Nars Orgasm blush, and chanel lipgloss.

Thanks for looking, and again, sorry about the pic quality. It really is a very nice eye look, and a great palette. The colors go well together, and I'd recommend it

Right! I was about to post her pic in the celebrity lookalike thread. Everytime I see her pics I think Gisele.

VERY cute! Do you find the PD e/s are similar in texture/staying power to MAC? I'm so spoiled by MAC, but that palette looks tempting!

I put it on at about 4 am, lasted until 2pm when I took a nap (hadn't slept last night), and when I woke up, it was just slightly faded (which is amazing, usually if I sleep, even for just a half an hour, all that is left of my eye makeup is some smudgy liner). By around 8 pm there were some noticable creases and fading, but that was 14 hours later. MY first PD eyeshadows, and I'm very impressed with them so far. BTW, this was without a primer or anything like a paint, just wanted to see how they would last on their own.
