Bought it, forgot it

So I’m going to be doing this “series” on my blog that I have seen people do, called “Bought it, Forgot it" - It’s about makeup items I’ve kind of either forgotten about or pushed to the back of my drawers and want to start using more. I have SOOO much makeup, I really do need to give some items more attention! LOL.. So I’m starting out with this J Cat Beauty - Sparkling Cream palette I received in an Ipsy bag months ago. I never really swatched these before! They’re actually so beautiful. They are a cream, but I would recommend using MAC fix-plus with these or a glitter eye primer. These are swatched with no primer and still look pretty good. I don’t wear glitter that often but I should I have pulled this out for my NYE look I did! I’ll remember this palette next time I need some extra sparkle. :)

Galaxy Chic Palette EOTD

I’m going to be posting TONS of looks using the Galaxy Chic Palette from BH Cosmetics because I’m obsessed with this palette and it’s such a pretty collection and super inexpensive. For this look I used Comet and Earth on the inner lid, Neptune on the outer lid, and under the brow I always use MAC Naked pigment as a highlight.

Covergirl Tru Magic Luminizer

I was shopping in the drug store and I saw the new Spring 2014 line of Cover Girl Tru Blend Collection. I saw there was Luminizer, Sun Kisser, and Mattifier. I really want to try the Sun Kisser but it was all sold out, and the Luminizer was the last one left! Grr. I'll have to check other stores. I LOVE the luminizer! It's a highlight and can be used anywhere on the body for a glow.

These swatch pictures are with a flash, and applied a lot on my hand so it's not going to be like SUPER shiny on your face. But it gives a perfect highlight and glow to your skin. I LOVE the way it feels, like a creamy velvetty feel. It's just gorgeous and I can't wait to use it on my face and body. Can't wait to try the rest of the line as well.

BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic Palette

I recently finally got the BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic palette. The colors look so gorgeous and so when I saw it I had to get it. At first I was a little bummed because when using the lighter colors on my eyes, they didn't appear to hold very well or blend and they weren't very pigmented. I decided to apply them wet, and WOW that made all the difference! I definitely recommend using them wet because it just really brings out the color and makes it super pigmented. Look how gorgeous these swatches are! Looks to come soon using this palette!

Motives Gem Dust - 24k

I recently bought Motives Gem Dust in 24k. It is so beautiful, and I love all things sparkly and gold/bronze so I had to get this after seeing many people use it on Instagram.

Milani Color Statement Lipstick

I want to start wearing more bold colors on lipstick so I picked up these two Milani Color Statement lipsticks. They're really pretty, last long on the lips and they smell really good, kind of like fruity.

Blue and Gold Eye Makeup

For this look I used Maybelline Color 24 Hour Tattoo Metal in the colors "electric blue" and "gold rush" as a base. Then I used Sephora eyeshadows in "my boyfriend's jeans" and "color token" which I recently got on sale for $5 at Sephora and they are such pretty colors! Highlight color is MAC "naked" pigment.

Wet & Wild Petal Pusher Palette

Here's a look I did recently with the Wet & Wild Petal Pusher palette. I love purples and lavenders so when I saw this palette I had to pick it up. :)



 I used the top right three, and the left lowest color.
