I've been incredibly busy with work and home life there's been no time to post.

I've been wearing the heck out of Play on Plums mes and Spice It Up l/s though!

I've been using the shadow all over my face: eyes, cheeks - blush, highlighter!

It's so gorgeous!

I've worn it so much I've hit pan in some areas on it!

The gorgeous pink in this duo is what I always wanted Expensive Pink to be.

I love Play on Plums, too! Unfortunately mine fell off the shelf and smashed on the bathroom floor...

ok i feel like no one will remember Thunder ES from 2007 Smoke Signals- it was reallly really promising because it was a dark purple...except when people got it they realized that it wasn't pigmented at all...well recently I realized that it WASN'T supposed to be super pigmented....when you put it on you get a "haze" of color...it's like eyelid tint...perfect for those light smokey eyes that are still work safe...

Oh I remember it! I actually really love that eyeshadow, it looks so nice in the crease with a silver on the lid.

Tonight I'm going out to see Killing Joke, which was one of my favorite bands way back in the day - hard, tribal, political and loud!

I figure I''ll go full out:

Face: Truth & Light powder all over, then the sparkly side of Hang Loose for extra highlight.

Eyes: Black CCB blended on lids. Slick Black GPS smudged thickly on upper/lower lashline and extended outwards (70's pointy, rather than 60's cat eye). Opulash. I was thinking a little She Who Dares or My Dark Magic for extra smudginess, darkness and shimmer, but I think I'll leave it simple for a more "destroyed" look.

Lips: Nightmoth lip liner all over the lips, then a mixture of Midnight Media mattene and Black Knight l/s. Cleanup and define outer lip edges where needed with concealer.

Woohoo - time to rock!

Do you have Kid? I sometimes substitute Kid for Soft Brown. Not that they're the same color, but I use them for the same purpose.
