Finish 5 by Fall Intro

Here we go...Pan 4x4 is over, now onto Finish 5 by Fall!

I picked 5 items I would like to use up by the first day of fall - Wednesday, September 23. I recorded a video and uploaded it to YouTube on the items I chose. If you would like to watch that, click this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7nOv8YWREI

I have started doing videos on YouTube...my name there is "thedaiseygirly"

Empties # 7

I have 12 empties that I used up during the month of June. Three of these are from my "pan 4x4" project. I will insert a photo of those at the end. As always, I will give my mini review of each empty product.

June 2015 Favorites

This was a month of nudes for me. And for refreshing my face and making sure my lipstick stayed put all day long. With the kids out of school and no major plans, I really was able to focus on doing my makeup in the mid-day....I know I didn't go anywhere half the time, but at least I was a diva house-mom for the day right?

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette Lookbook

I have decided that I will be trying to pan the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette starting now until the end of this year. I doubt I will finish the entire thing, but would like to see how much progress I can make on it. Even if I hit pan on a few of the shades I will be happy.

That said, I did a week of looks using strictly this palette. No other shadows were used, but I did use eyeliners when needed and layered shadow on top to set the eyeliner. Also, I used various cream bases to alter some of the shades slightly (I need to work on using these more as well: paint pots & color tattoos).

Quality over Quantity

Every morning I sit at my vanity and look over my makeup. Some stuff I love, others I don't. My collection is not as large as others I have seen. But it is larger than the "average" female's collection. And I am a tad embarrassed by that fact. That said, I swatched a whole bunch of lip products I have not touched in a long time. As in they have dust sitting on their caps. And I made some cuts and am throwing out things I know I will never use. Picture below of said items:

ColourPop's Coconut

If you haven't guessed by now, I am in love with ColourPop. Their eyeshadows are perfection; their creamy mousse-like texture dries to a long-lasting powder with intense color payoff. And they are only $5.

Coconut is a summer exclusive shade and I have had it on  my mind since I received it, but didn't really know what to do with it. Today I decided to go full ham and have it be the center of attention like it deserves.

Empties # 6

Empties. Again. Happy June 1 everybody!!!

I will make this short and sweet with what I used up in the month of May and mini-review of each product.
