Hunger Games colors from Bad B*tch Cosmetics

I purchased sample clamshells from Bad B*tch Cosmetcs on Etsy last year and finally wore some colors today. I have to say, they are extremely pigmented and gorgeous. I bought samples in The Hunger Games and Andy Warhol collections. This look is a mixture of both.






Lid is Katniss, a gorgeous Emerald/Piney green with medium sheen. Crease is Cinna, gorgeous gold with high shine. A little bit of Finnick in outer V, a great steel shimmer. Lower lash line is Ultra Violet from the Andy Warhol collection, great blue/purple. Edie is a soft white highlight from the Warhol collection used on brow. :-)

Unbound Eden Cosmetics & Wet & Wild

 Happy Sunday all! As you know by now, I'm a promoter for a lovely company called Unbound Eden Cosmetics. For fall they are coming out with 5 new lipstick shades. Today I'm featuring Unbelievable! Unbelievable is an opaque, matte, creamy golden yellow lipstick that smells lightly of lemonade. One of a kind! Not every skin tone can pull this one off, but if you are fortunate enough to be able too, I highly recommend it!
The first photo is swatched with light coverage, while the 2nd is a heavier, more opaque coverage.
 I paired it up with one of the new W&W Fergie palettes, Glamour Eyes. Above is swatched on the finger tips, below my hand.
 I have to say I'm not at all impressed with this particular palette. The 1st three colors are pretty sheer. The whit is not too bad, but the yellow gold was very disappointing to me. It does not carry over very well at all. The problem could be it is too close to my skin undertones. I tend to have this problem with golds and yellows.
 Completed look with Unbelievable Fall Lipstick from Unbound Eden Cosmetics.

Keep posted for looks featuring the next 4 lippies! Countdown to September first when they are released with me! Each one has a unique and yummy scent, and 3 of them are UV reactive. Stay tuned!

Unbound Eden Cosmetics Reformulated Lipsticks

Hello lovelies! A few weeks ago Laura over at Unbound Eden Cosmetics released her reformulated lip colors. Being a fan of her old lipsticks, I was excited for her to release some more. They come in six colors, are long lasting, and feel like a glove for your lips. Her colors are very similar to some of Lime Crime's gorgeous lippies, but cost less and to me a a bit more moisturizing. The six colors are 1)The Great Queen -deep red w/orange/brown undertones. 2)Barbarian Queen-Burnt Orange. 3)Nymph-deep peachy orange. 4.)Damsel-pastel peachy nude. 5)Cupid's Helm-soft pastel baby pink.(abit deeper than most pastels) 6)Fairy Folk-Pastel lilac.

                                                     Wearing Nymph-deep peachy orange.
