I think it came out a lot better, but then again, all my looks from a year ago looked downright scary! I hadn’t started using products in my crease, and I’m not sure I even attempted to blend. Oh what a difference a year can make!!! :D

    It was pretty, but didn’t have great staying power like normal MAC shadows do. But I was happy to finally use these shadows, I’ve had them sitting around since last fall!

    What is a Paint Pot?

    A highly pigmented eye colour that goes on creamy but dries to an intense, vibrant finish. Long-wearing, colourfast. Creates seamless coverage without weight or caking. Blends smoothly over the lids. Cream-based, can be mixed with M·A·C shadows and liners.

    For actual Valentine’s Day I did a purple look I often fall back on… Beautiful Iris, Satellite Dreams, Fertile, and Shroom. Didn’t take any pictures.

    I rarely line my upper lashes, let alone with Blacktrack, so this was something different. Just felt that it was too plain and needed liner. :)

    Didn’t photograph too well, but it’s a simple and pretty pink-ish look. Just a bit of color to spice up an otherwise boring look! I was thinking how easy it’d be to take something like Contrast, and darken up the outer V, and transform the look, too.
