Pink and Purple look with Archetype Cosmetics

It's been a long while since I have touched or even thought about my Archetype shadows. I truly love their shadows but I sort of forgot about them. I know most people seem to have issues with ordering from them but I have not. I even placed a tiny order a couple months ago and got my package in week. So it seems things have improved a lot. Which I am happy for. But I don't necessarily recommend them if they are still having horrible CS issues. *shrugs*

Anyway, it's been a very busy week for me. I haven't worn makeup in the last 4 days. I know, that's blasphemy! But I've been working my fingers off making new designs and restocking my eBay store inventory. I'm getting things ready for Halloween which is the busiest time of year for me. So I have to start now to make sure I have enough supplies for the demand.
So once I get the new stuff made and listed for sale, I will make a minor post about it here. I don't like bombarding people on my blog to buy my stuff. It's there if you like it, if not, that's OK too. Not everyone likes my style of jewelry and I'm OK with that.

So here's a look I did yesterday. I've been playing with my camera settings as it still just doesn't seem to capture things in the correct colouring. I'm pale, neutral, yellowish with a slight bit of pink. But my new camera (which seems to now be dying since my hubby dropped it) makes me look very tan, pink and warm. I know there has to be some setting to fix it but I haven't figured it out. So I tend to try to fix the colouring in photoshop which can make me look just pale/white. Of course lighting conditions can change the colouring of pictures too. So it's quite annoying. But these pictures are more to my true colouring...except that I am a bit paler. Most of you have not seen me in person so I'm sure it doesn't make much of a difference to you. I shouldn't be so anal about these things. It seems to be a waste of time anyway!
I think a new camera is going to be the next big purchase for me. Dang it!
