from Ellana Mineral Cosmetics

And because my in a snap, Sophie and Tin lurved my mom, she got these too:

She finally found her perfect match and HG foundation! Now I know why she gets away with my Monave Saturnina! Oh she also took home a sample of the Monave e/s that caught her peepers first out of the whole lot: TURQUIOSE!

And because I got lucky too:

YOU MUST GET SABOTAGE!!!
It’s the PERFECT gunmetal shade!!!

Per request, I made a tutorial on one of the looks I sported from the B&M events. Hope you like it!

Tools of Trade aka. what I used for this tutorial:

Step 1: Prime your eyes/face

I actually did not for today’s look since it’s too cold for a melt down or creasing ;p Although for the B&M event itself, I used ARTDECO Eye Shadow Base.

Step 2: Apply your usual face stuff

This is me after BE mineral veil -spritz- BE foundation -spritz- Well Rested (wooohooo my fave product of the moment).

Step 3: Apply crease color

I applied BE Glimmer in TAN LINES in a buffing motion. TAN LINES I believe is a perfect shade that’s crossed between bronze and copper.

Step 4: Apply highlight

I used BE Glimmer in NUDE BEACH using a shader brush in a patting motion.

Step 5: BLEND, BLEND, BLEND

For this EOTD, I didn’t do the usual wiper motion. I buffed where the colors met.

Step 6: Eye line those peepers

I mixed a pinch of BE Glimmer in ENCHANTING with 2 drops of BE Liner Sealer and applied it with the slanted brush.

Ignore the dot on my lid…my cam’s not in very good shape anymore…

Step 7: Fix those brows and lashes

I can’t find my brow gel so the result’s a bit messy… :p

All done!
