Gold, Green and Teal Eye Makeup look + Picture Tutorial

Trying to hang on to summer with this look. Makes me think of mermaids. :-)
 While I love fall, I really dislike the winter time and being cold. I'm looking forward to the Holidays though.

This look was created using TKB Trading micas. These are just basic micas with no fillers or bases. I know a lot of gals say they can't get these to stick/blend, but if you use the right primer, they work just fine (for me anyway).

Silver Purple Eye Makeup Look + Picture Tutorial

This look was created using Archetype Cosmetics eyeshadows. As far as I know, they are discontinued as Archetype closed up shop. *shrugs*

These shadows are ridiculously sparkly! When I was creating this look, I giggled out loud more than once as many times sparklies were "poofing" around me and some of it was landing on my forehead and in my hair. Oh my...the spahkles! *drool*
