Makeup Geek Eyeshadows



Usually I see comments on beauty videos of people saying I want that product. I didn't think about those things a few years ago watching YouTube. But now I think about wanting products I see in videos. Does that make any sense? One of my favorite people to watch is Jaclyn Hill. Her videos are great, she's funny, and keeps it real! While watching her Envious Mermaid tutorial about 4 months ago, I fell in love with three Eye shadows she used. Their names might have persuaded me a little more.


So after some thought I decided to purchase them. MakeupGeek.com is an online store that sells makeup, brushes, and more. This site is very popular, so I knew I had to hurry and buy it before those eye shadows were sold out. I am so glad I did. These colors are so pretty! Dirty Martini is a matte color, while Envy and Mermaid have more of a shimmer. These colors are very pigmented, so they will show up really well on the eyelid. I have started practicing with these eye shadows. I am hoping to recreate Jaclyn Hill's look, although it will not be as gorgeous as hers. 
Here's her link: Envious Mermaid tutorial

If I decide to do a tutorial inspired by Jaclyn Hill's look I will definitely post it! I hope you enjoyed reading!

    Those shadows are so pretty! I've been meaning to buy some MUG shadows as well- I've heard that they are comparable to MAC eyeshadows!

Helpful Posts/Sites For Bloggers

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too.   Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

Color Theory:8 Piece Ultimate Eyeliner Set

I love Eyeliner; eyeliner is my go to look. Anytime I had eyeliner my eyes would look like their dressed up! The only eyeliner I have ever wore up until this point was black; because that was the only color I thought was out (crazy of me right?!) Anyway lately I've seen many girls wear different color eyeliner, mainly on YouTube; so I knew immediately I would have to try it. After a while I forgot all about them, until Christmas of 2012 when I received them. I was so excited because my Mom didn't even know I wanted them; now that I am thinking I didn't even ask!  Now I can match up the colors with eyeshadow. Enough of that here's the box they came in and I have the colors listed below. On the back it just talks about the different styles you can do with the eyeliners. For example: The famous winged look (instructions for it are on the back).                                ...

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

  At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means.  During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no ...
