They said today was going to be a super lucky day but it was just another day to me!

So, yesterday Lisa & i went to the dollar store. Now, everywhere i go i look at the makeup cause you never know what you'll find. I have never found anything like these shadows that I found there though! They are WONDERFUL and the price is right for just a dollar! I bought 3 for now & i'm sure i'll be back for more ASAP! Its a brand called "splash" that i'd never heard of before. I just love the texture and the color pay-off is GREAT! I am sooo thrilled with them. Now in the same brand i found this beautiful gitter. Glitter really scares me but i thought, what the hell... give it a shot. So, i bought 2 of them too

I also got a gorgeous blue liquid liner! I've never used anything but black in liquid...

Anyway... sorry for rambling my point of all that is that i used the glitter today and dont really like how it showed up in the pictures. In real life it looked a little better i guess. I definitly need to work on my glitter skills though

ooooooooh the glitter looks great, it is such a nice contrast to the other colors and highlight to the whole eye-makeup.

that's cool!

i like the way the blue is blended out a little more than you normally do it, it's softer but still dramatic

I was a little nervous about this one but you all made me feel much better about it!!!

So to all that were wondering what dollar store i went to. It wasnt a chain store like "dollar tree" or anything. Its just a local privately owned store, sorry.

I looked at the "splash makeup" website though. It is more expensive there but they offer a much bigger selection on the site then at the dollar store! Heres a link to the site if you want to check it out!

Again, thanks for you kind words though

Great look! I've seen these at little stores in the mall (where you would find Nyx shadows) I believe they ran about 3.00, or so. They are cheaper than the website, but not as cheap as you found them! I will have to look at some dollar stores
