Make Up For Ever New Eyeshadows!

                    As many of you know Make up For Ever is a very high-end brand but has amazing products. They're most famous for their Hd Foundation and their Hd powder, but they never were really known for their eyeshadows. At my work we only had about 30 of their old eyeshadows. They literally got rid of all their eyeshadows and made completely new ones. These new eyeshadows are gel-powder. So not your regular powder eyeshaodws. Also, they are 88% pigment. Which means they are the color in the pan, and that color will be the exact same color on your eyelids. These are the best eyeshadows i have EVER used (i have MAC, all naked palettes, smashbox palettes,Tarte,and bunch of others).
They are effortless when it comes to blending them out.The colors,are freakin amazing. They came out with 210 different colors. From nudes, pinks, oranges, purples, and to neons. My store doesn't carry all 210 but we have a lot. 
The first day they came out i literally swatched all of them because i was so excited. 
PRICE: the price on these eyeshadows is kinda complocted. They do come in Pan form. which means they don't have a palettes, BUT the palette is only like $0.60-$1.
for one eyeshadow is $21, for one eyeshadow and the single palette its $22. For 2 eyeshadow in a 2 palette its $35. For 3 eyeshadows in a 3 eyeshadow palettes its $44. 
So which mean the best value is the 3, because your buying 2 and getting 1 free. which is what i have boughten. So lets take a look at the ones i have bought!

Overall: These eyeshadows are amazing, i plan on getting most of them! no seriously haha.

August IPSY bag!

"Beauty Schooled"
 1. Urban Decay Perversion mascara
 This mascara is new and i wanted to try it, the only thing is that they didn't give a sample of the "subversion" which it the lash primer that makes this mascara so amazing. At work i have put this on a few clients and it makes there eyelashes so thick and long! so i was sad when they didn't give the primer in the bag:(

2. J. Cat eyeshadow
 This eyeshadow is a very light gold. it kind of reminds me of easy baked from urban decay. This eyeshadow is REALLY soft and creamy ( as you can tell from the swatch on the right) 

3. Klorane dry shampoo

 i love dry shampoo because i don't wash my hair everyday. this one is an all natural brand. so w will see how it compares to my others ones that i love!

4. Mongongo lip balm
you can never have too much Chapstick! so i was okay getting this in my bag because its all natural, and i seem to lose all my chapsticks anyways. 

5. Dr. brandt pores no more
Lastly, is the dr. brandt pores no more. i forgot to take a picture of this! :( 
so this i was so excited for because we sell this at my work. This is a makeup product and skincare in one! which is why its so popular. Its a primer to hold your foundation on longer as well as hide all your pores! but the unique thing about this is that it also will help your pore size the more you wear it! Dr. brandt also has a whole skincare line for pores that i have heard is amazing! so this was a good sample too!

 Mineralized blush in "Warm Soul"
 Mineralized skin finish in "Soft and Gentle"
 Lipstick in "Angel"


I Was out shopping today and saw these and fell in love. I Got these for a CCO. if you don't know what A CCO is it's a Cosmetic Company Outlet so stuff thats way over stoked or different Collections that are old they go here. I got all of this for only $69! that might seem a lot but if i was to go to an actual MAC store my total would of been a lot more. Lipstick $15 ( i got for $11) Mineralized skinfinish $32.00 ( i got mine for $21) Mineralized blush $27 9 i got mine for 17.50) and pressed pigment $21 ( i got mine for $14) 
the retail total would of been $100!
You can find CCO's in saks fifth avenue or google it!
they have everything from MAC, smashbox, bobbi brown, estee lauder, clinique, skincare, and fragrance! 



Also, i have AMAZING things about warm soul blush so i was so excited when i saw it there, as well as soft and gentle because i have heard so many people rave about it. For the pressed pigment i have seen amazing eyeshadow looks with these so I'm stoked to try them. Angel lipstick i believe was kim kardashian favorite so I'm excited to see if its a nude on me or a nude pink.
