  1. You are so gorgeous, dammit!! I love Desert Rain! I'm thinking of placing a sample order from Archetype. Even though they suck, I really like the colors XD

  3. Lisa Kate,
    Thank you sweet woman! I know! I would also like to place another order with them. I was really tempted to for the Halloween collection but I'm afraid to! Maybe a small sample order wouldn't hurt since her samples are so cheap. By the time it arrives, I'm sure I will have forgotten about it and it will feel like Christmas gifts!

    Phyrra,
    Thank you! :-)

    Thia Winter,
    Thanks. :-D

    Marcey,
    Thank you. :-)

  4. Wooo gorgeous, I like how you used the darker color only on the ball of the lid, so the lighter color is all around it... I need to try that.

  5. Heather,
    Thank you. :-) I like to do that sometimes as it seems to give the eyes a more sultry look. You should try it. :-D
