I have "pink eye" lol

Okay so I dont really have pink eye but my pink eye shadow is the bomb.com lol. Anyway today's post is a look that i did with my BH cosmetics palettes(my fav). Some time tomorrow I will post pics of the actual palettes. This was a pretty simple look that is perfect for a spring night out. I have not figured out videos on here yet but I did do a tutorial on this look that can be found on my youtube page in the meantime under the user name >kingdom beauty(simply put)<. The name of the tut is "pink eye". I really hope you enjoy this........  p.s please disregard all my zits:)








Today's post but yesterday's look (covergirl palette)

One of the first things I realized when doing and learning about make up is that bright colors actually look good on dark skin. Naturally, those are the colors that most of us(dark skinned people) tend to shy away from. When I figured this out I went on a search to discover exactly which bright shades were for me. The first color I discovered was blue. For the most part I've noticed that pretty much any shade of blue shadow looks good on me(when blended well). So my first blog suggestion is going to be for a fun sort of spring palette by cover girl from the eye enhancers collection in FARD ACCENT. Eye shadow beginners this is a must have for the spring season. I think I purchased it a walmart.  For this look I used a combination of the teal(on the inner corners of the eyes), and the darker blue(the outer corners of the eyes). Unfortunately, since I did this look yesterday I can not post a tutorial video but I can post pics of the product and the finished look. Also to finish the eye I used a covergirl eyeliner and a gel liner by Sonia Kashuk. Enjoy ladies..........
