I'm glad I stumbled on this thread because I've really been using things in my stash that I haven't touched in ages!

I've cut back my purchases from the LE collections and have been limiting myself to unique items only.

I also keep a list of color combinations and re-arranged my eye shadow palettes with like colors stacked vertically instead of horizontally.

Keep on posting everybody!!


ITA. Plus it gives me ideas for what to look for in the discount bin and CCO! And I love the ideas for new combos.

Sometimes having something you can throw together quickly is a good thing! I was in a hurry the other day and got ideas from a post here--saved me some time!

Today I went for autumn look to compliment my Kittenish lippy (broke it out for the first time today!)

Apricot colored cream eyeshadow from EL all over lids (similiar to Rubenesque, you can sub that if you have it, I got this for 11 or so at the CCO and can tell you later if this works like a PP--the container looks exactly the same as the PP except the label which is EL)
Brash & Bold all over lid
Jardin Aires on brow and inner corners
Mauvement in the V and smoking it out

Defiantly Feline eyeliner and used a stiff brush to stick Copper Sparkle piggie dust into the eyeliner while it was still wet

Kittenish lippy. (It looks really dark on my pastey self, so I blotted with a kleenex and put clear lipgloss over it. If I wasn't going to work, I would have rocked it full blast.)

I am actually pretty proud of this one!

Trying to console myself on the no buy for VV by making a dark "villianesque" lip...with Sophisto--a gorgeous sheer but quite buildable plum lippy. (Love it)

...paired with a soft taupe/neutral eye


Eyes: Jest all over
Night Manouvers in V and along lash line
Silver Ring in the crease
Omega to blend it all out

Grey eyeliner from FF
Rimmel Glam Eyes mascara

Face: Redhead to highlight, used Porcelain Pink to blend out
Light Flush for blush

Lips: Lined with NYX Deep purple lip liner (similar to Velveeta sp?) to bring out the plum tones in Sophisto (Lustre) lippy

(you could also use Kittenish, Odyssey, Cunning, etc)

BF said to me, "You are getting better at doing your make-up" (a real compliment coming from him)
